Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

The conspicuously missing area under the oval office is the president's evacuation/bomb shelter area with underground connections to the various tunnels used by the Secret Service to move around in secret (or just in a hurry).

Supposedly the tunnels under there connect pretty damned far. It's like... The forbidden tour haha.

They've infiltrated the executive branch!

Having been been in the Navy, I'm not sure why you'd choose to have an entire restaurant for that cuisine.

Yes, the Whitehouse has a calligrapher. For lots of things that require formal presentations, but also for things like name cards at state dinners (the same as one might do at a fancy wedding reception).

Red room? Bedroom of the queen? What is going on in there?

[–] Flughoernchen@feddit.de 3 points 5 months ago

The government doesn't want you to know that but actually the Queen didn't die, she just decided it's finally time to retire and moved where she figured no one would look for her. After the unpaid intern accidentally leaked the information - hence the rooms name on the map - that fact is still denied, which just makes it more suspicious.

"Bedroom of the Queen" Wasn't there a war over that?
