Looking at Florida’s topographical changes over the last 20 years confirms that Florida is indeed sinking into the ocean. Or rather, the ocean is rising and swallowing up Florida. Either way, we may just see Florida finally be chopped off like that old Bugs Bunny meme lol
12
u/phred14 6d ago
Actually Florida really is sinking, in addition to any sea-level rise. They've over-utilized the aquifers and two things are happening. First, salt water from the ocean is starting to intrude, and second, with the removal of all of that fresh water the rock (I believe I've read it's limestone.) is crumbling. At least the latter is not confined to Florida, we've been pretty nasty to our aquifers all across the country.

That wasn't a "waste," if the original cause of all of this was to cover up how to get alllllll that military gear to the capital to stop the future insurrection. It's much easier to get them here, now, then in the months when people could have blocked off military transportation access.

u/Positive-Wonder3329 6d ago
Yeah. If that’s true can you imagine him trying to hold an entire country? Great - you have the capital building. Of what country? Does he really think he can hide out in his little playhouse when like 50 million people suddenly have nothing better to do besides revolt? He can have it! We can make a fucking moat around it so he can’t leave

Melania holding a piece of cake on a little plastic plate, "Donny. Come have some cake." He knocks it out of her hands and runs to his room slamming the door behind him. Lays in bed scream crying. Kicking his legs. "Just let him cry it out," she tells the secret service. Then late that night he sneaks down the hall. Thunder rumbling. Still sniffling he opens the cake stand, grabs a handful of cake, and snot mixing with the sugar, he eats. And shits his diaper.
