“Ever wondered about the average jean colour across the United States? Or what ‘pedestrians’ look like in Denmark? What unites Brokenwind, Upton Snodsbury and Crackpot? And have you ever tried to take a train in Antarctica? Well Terrible Maps is the book for you!
Put together by the creator behind the tremendously popular social media feed, this is the ultimate humour book for the budding geographer in your life [i.e., YOU!] From countries that eat their national animals to nations that have declared war on birds (and lost), Terrible Maps celebrates pointless cartography in all its glory…”

64 Terrible But Funny Maps That You Wouldn’t Find In A Geography Book

https://www.boredpanda.com/best-terrible-maps-all-times/ <-- shared article

“Most of us, if not all, are aware of what a typical map looks like. It usually represents a part of the Earth, showing the locations of countries, cities, and natural landmarks like rivers and mountains, as well as man-made features like roads and buildings.
However, some cartographers try to mix it up and stray from the norm, creating not-so-conventional maps that, at first glance, have no usefulness at all. How many Switzerlands fit in Brazil and tomato Europe vs. potato Europe are just a few examples awaiting you on the best-of-all-time list of Terrible Maps…”

CW: Really Bad Map
What the heck is this #projection?

Just checking, but I see this correctly:
This map in The Guardian only shows places where test-positives have been found, instead of a (by all means if needed: dichotomised) result for all tests that were conducted?
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/feb/23/revealed-scale-of-forever-chemical-pollution-across-uk-and-europeThose two may be the same, but in that case that would have been news in itself, would it not?
Sounds like a case for @TerribleMaps
