Ah you're from Washington? Explain this 

 

 

I'm originally from Eastern Canada, and before moving to Washington I lived seven years in Texas.

 

I do not have any explaination for Pornhub search popularities. I'm not vanilla enough to be "with it", so to speak.

 

If anything I'm a bit surprised to see Transgender be this relatively high in Washington, normally on that kind of map you see it more in the South where it's more "transgressive". In Western Washington, anyway, being trans or otherwise gender noncomforming isn't something that people generally make a big deal out of.

I do not for a single second believe all of these states actually had a unique #1 in their search rankings

Kristi Noem has been nominated as Secretary of Homeland Security.

 

As someone who pretends to be a dog on the Internet I am scared.

Imagine being a senator and even there having to have someone else's dog around you at a place where you're supposed to be able to focus on important things

Meanwhile also Elon Musk ('Government Efficiency') and some FOX News guy (Defense) have been put forward as likely nominees for ministerial posts. For now at least, we know there's going to be a 4 year tombola with people being hired as 'the best ever' and fired as 'a big loser' depending on how long they openly stay loyal to Trump (his words basically, loyalty to him personally is more important than good government).
