The states that watch the most porn — New York, you should be ashamed
We're the city that never sleeps — because we're up all night watching porn. A new study by AI image generator Kalon found that the Empire State comes in second in the US when it comes to NSFW content consumption, right behind California.
Meanwhile, Texas placed third in the rankings, proving that everything's bigger in the Lone Star State, including appetites for X-rated content.

'Porn consumption might seem like a private habit, but search data reveals just how differently adult content is explored across the country,' said a Kalon spokesperson.

Researchers with the AI firm compiled this lecherous list by using data from the Google Keyword Planner to analyze regions' salacious search histories. They broke them down into four core categories: Online searches related to porn, online searches related to porn genres and online searches reflecting porn curiosity.
They also deduced how much time each states' residents spend watching porn based on metrics Pornhub's 2024 U.S. insights report.
These scores were then combined to create a 'Porn Engagement Score' used to rank each state and also name the top-ranking porn category in each.

To ensure fair comparisons across the 50 states, Kalon experts prioritized skin flick-surfing per capita, although they gave some weight to total search volume where relevant.
'By looking at the rate of online searches, interest in specific genres, curiosity-driven terms, and average time spent watching porn, we gain a clearer picture of how people engage with sexual content online,' the Kalon rep said. 'This is not about right or wrong. It is a reflection of digital behavior and cultural comfort. It shows where curiosity is more openly expressed and where it tends to stay behind closed doors.'
Interestingly, they noted a rising interest in animated porn in several states, which they claim suggested 'a growing interest in fantasy-based formats that differ from traditional live-action content.'

Coming in first was the Golden State, which logged a whopping 137,000 monthly online searches related to porn per 100,000 people, pushing it well above the national average.
Cali-porny-a also ranked second in porn curiosity and seventh-highest when it came to average time spent watching porn at 10 minutes and 11 seconds — eclipsing the national average 9 minutes and 53 seconds.
The state's most searched genre is animated porn.
New York placed second overall when it came to the nation's porn hubs, although it beat out Cali in monthly online porn searches with 149,000 monthly per 100,000 peeps. Meanwhile, the most popular category among New Yorkers is lesbian porn.
Texas and Georgia placed third and fourth place respectively. Meanwhile, Washington rounded out the top five, notably ranking first in monthly online porn searches with 150,000 per 100,000 people.

Report: Landing Gear Mishap Caused B-2 Bomber to Crash, Catch on Fire in 2022 Incident
An Air Force B-2 Spirit crash at Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, in 2022 that caused upward of $300 million worth of damage was due to a landing gear issue, a new accident investigation details. The B-2 stealth bomber, call sign DEATH 12, attempted to land on Dec. 10, 2022, after a training mission and experienced a hydraulic system failure when trying to land, resulting in the bomber skidding more than 9,000 feet down a runway before it burst into flames. Once the crew touched down, the left landing gear "collapsed immediately," causing the left wing tip to scrape the ground and eventually the fuel tanks to leak and catch fire, the report from Air Force Global Strike Command, released this week, detailed. No injuries were reported to the crew. "Following the incident, AFGSC temporarily suspended B-2A flights to inspect the fleet," a news release from the command said, clarifying that it still maintained the ability to deploy B-2s if needed. "Full flight operations resumed on May 22, 2023." Read Next: VA to End Bargaining Agreement Contracts with Most Unions The July report finally details the circumstances behind the high-profile 2022 crash of the B-2 at the Missouri base that led to the closure of the runway for nearly two weeks and limited the stealth bomber's full flight operations for more than five months. previously reported that it took 11 days for the runway to reopen for A-10 Thunderbolt II and T-38 Talon flying operations at Whiteman. The B-2s were temporarily grounded for a safety investigation in the wake of the crash. B-2 bombers had been set to fly out for the 2023 Rose Bowl Parade and Game on Jan. 2, but were replaced by B-1B Lancers as a result of the incident. More than $300 million worth of damage was estimated to the crashed plane's left wing and left landing gear, as well as $27,500 worth of damage to the airfield, the report detailed. The Accident Investigation Board President, Col. Jesse Lamarand, determined that "the mishap was caused by a failure of a truck position sequence valve hydraulic coupling," according to a news release that included the report. Additionally, Lamarand said in the report that a design vulnerability with the main landing gear allowed the lock link assembly to move out of the locked position during the emergency gear extension. The report also identified a delay in using aqueous film forming foam, or AFFF, to fight the fire as another cause of the extensive damage. "The incident commander's decision to not immediately use aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) allowed the fire to spread, causing further damage to the aircraft wing," the report detailed. AFFF was not authorized to be used for "approximately the first three minutes and 28 seconds of the fire attack because of a misunderstanding that AFFF should be used only as a last resort," the report added. Aqueous film forming foam has been slowly phased out by several of the military services, including the Air Force, due to it containing PFAS, a group of substances known as forever chemicals because of their resistance to breaking down in the environment and human body.

In Hiroshima, a schoolboy keeps memories of war alive with guided tours\u200b
HIROSHIMA, Japan, July 31 (Reuters) - Since the age of seven, Japanese schoolboy Shun Sasaki has been offering free guided tours to foreign visitors of the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park with a mission: ensuring that the horrors of nuclear war do not fade from memory with the passage of time. Aged 12 now, Shun has conveyed that message to some 2,000 visitors, recounting in his imperfect but confident English the experiences of his great-grandmother, a 'hibakusha' who survived the atomic bomb. "I want them to come to Hiroshima and know about what happened in Hiroshima on August 6," Shun said in English, referring to the day the bomb was dropped in 1945. More: Hiroshima warns against nuclear weapons as it marks 80 years since atomic bomb "I want them to know how bad is war and how good is peace. Instead of fighting, we should talk to each other about the good things of each other," he said. About twice a month, Shun makes his way to the peace park wearing a yellow bib with the words "Please feel free to talk to me in English!" splashed across the back, hoping to educate tourists about his hometown. His volunteer work has earned him the honour of being selected as one of two local children to speak at this year's ceremony to commemorate 80 years since the A-bomb was dropped -- its first use in war. Shun is now the same age as when his great-grandmother Yuriko Sasaki was buried under rubble when her house, about 1.5 km (0.9 mile) from the hypocentre, collapsed from the force of the blast. She died of colorectal cancer aged 69 in 2002, having survived breast cancer decades earlier. The uranium bomb instantly killed about 78,000 people and by the end of 1945 the number of dead, including from radiation exposure, reached about 140,000. The U.S. dropped a second atomic bomb on Nagasaki on August 9. Canadian Chris Lowe said Shun's guided tour provided a level of appreciation that went beyond reading plaques on museum walls. "To hear that about his family… it surely wrapped it up, brought it home and made it much more personal. So it was outstanding for him to share that," he said. Shun said he plans to continue with the tours as long as he can. "The most dangerous thing is to forget what happened a long time ago… so I think we should pass the story to the next generation, and then, never forget it, ever again."
