I wonder if the bridge contributed to the change in river course. It slowed flow enough in the normal river channel that the faster flowing water went around and dug a deeper channel next door. The water slowed by the bridge dropped its sediment to build up a bank under the span.
Seems like a plausible story, no idea if it's based in reality though.
How do you watch YouTube on mobile without ads? Do you just watch on mobile browser instead of using YT app? Is there some alternative front end app that includes adblock?
China soaked up all the soft power the US had with programs like USAID. This administration has done reputational damage that took about a century to build, and will likely take as long to rebuild.
I think the 'point' of the ship of thesius is often missed. Grouping things together to be one entity is thought process done in our brains for ease of understanding, but it doesn't exist in the real world.
I think the ship of thesius thought experiment is there to show that there are times where things can't be distinctly grouped. When things don't fit nicely into groups we shouldn't force them, but abandon the that grouping as it isn't applicable to the situation.
From a climate perspective that's just how the math works out, nothing to do with identity. People born before 1970 (commonly called the Boomers) will avoid the main consequences of climate change due to the delay between action and result and the median life expectency.
I recently lost a close friend also. It's hard to fathom how life can go on after tragedy, but it flows on all around you. Just people going about their day unaware of the immense vacuum where there was once joy and warmth and comfort. It's a terrible experience, I'm so sorry for your loss.
Now, bring this concept into a potential conflict between the US and China. China has ~200x the ship building capacity as the US.
In WWII it's generally agreed that the NAZIs had better, more sophisticated weapons. The US and Soviets just built more which ended up being a winning strategy.
In both the Ukrainian and Iran theatres, mass produced cheaper drones have proven an effective strategy against sophisticated anti-air defenses.
My point is that in real conflicts it seems manufacturing quantity is more important than technological superiority. Today, the US boasts of its weapons superiority, but China's manufacturing capacity far exceeds the US. If it really came to (non nuke flinging) war between the two, it seems China has the advantage.
NH and Maine are definitely not blue states. NY and California are blue states, NH is probably red and Maine purple.

I don't see counter sink holes on the surface, so they probably screwed up a lot.
What language?

Neat! For those OOTL, what is this card for and what makes it legendary? That is not addressed in the article at all.

A post of @PugJesus@piefed.social quality. Bravo!

That wasn't fun at all!

Same amount that we do on earth!
Neat! Thanks!
Enlightened us please.
How do you handle disputes?

That was brutal. Wasn't even a particularly rough challenge, seems just really unlucky.
