US already has 50 and adding another star is so much more a pain in the ass.

Not without Washington, you won't. Cascadia Now!

I read that like George Costanza.

“CASCADIA NOW!!”

It would surely bring me serenity if Cascadia became real.

Hey Michigan is basically already Canadian, we can just blend in.

[–] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 19 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Can confirm, lived in Michigan over a decade. Yoopers are more Canadian than most Canadians.

I grew up in Northern Wisconsin and you are not wrong.

Ah... cheese folk, huh? You can join Canada too, as long as you leave those processed plastic sheets behind.

I think we should return governing authority to the natives the US stole the land from. Sorry native Americans, this dumpster fire is yours to fix now.

There are few things more American than reducing a place to rubble and then being like: "Here. We're bored with this so you can have it back now. Aren't you so thankful that we liberated you from ~~your home, family, possessions, health, and everything you've ever known~~ the *bad guys?"
