Just like money.

Trucks, my dude. A single truck enters the highway and slows down the entire right lane until it can get up to speed. Do this for hundreds of trucks per day across a handful of exits, plus all the other traffic, and right lane congestion is nearly constant. I don't know where you are, but in the US middle/left lanes are sometimes signed for "Thru Traffic Only" to avoid additional congestion and slowdowns in the right lane.

All of these locations (Alaska, California, Hawaii, much of eastern Europe) are ones that Russia has at one point in its imperial or soviet history had either outposts or territorial claim to.

Come on dawg, you can't just drop Hawaii in there and not tell us what the fuck the Russians were doing over there!

I think, in this context "cultural capital" refers to one's social standing in their community. The higher the cultural capital one has, the higher one is in the social hierarchy, generally.

Good grades -> seen favorably by those around you -> higher social standing (increased cultural capital)

Yeah, don't go kill a wild (organic) animal and eat it, go to the grocery store and buy the antibiotic-riddled meat produced in awful conditions by a factory farm like the rest of us you disgusting FUCKS! /s

Dawg, I live in a real rural place. Maybe like 20% of the people I know use wild game as their primary source of meat; they take 1 elk or maybe 2 deer and fill up the freezer for the year to feed their family.

Trophy hunters, however, can absolutely FUCK right off.

Edit: and so can this wolf dude too.

If anyone cared about security, they would use free software.

What would those extra steps be?

Yep, probably why people end up here instead of the more conservative shitholes.
