We’re trying!
I regret to inform you that it has become a specific cabbage patch.That’s where all those dang kids come from!
I somehow misread garbage as cabbage for this.
pictures you can hear
That’s me
In about ten years, they’ll be able to connect all three with a land bridge made out of plastic garbage
It’s for a parking lot, isn’t it?
A construction plan of epic proportions. They’re calling it a freeway.
Eight lanes of shimmering cement running from here to Pasadena. Smooth, safe, fast. Traffic jams will be a thing of the past.
I see a place where people get on and off the freeway. On and off. Off and on. All day, all night. Soon where the Pacific once was will be a string of gas stations, inexpensive motels, restaurants that serve rapidly prepared food, tire salons, automobile dealerships, and wonderful, wonderful billboards reaching as far as the eye can see! My god… It’ll be beautiful.
And a couple malls, yeah
They could literally task a SINGLE Dutch person and this shit would be poldered by yesterday
that’s a new verb for me. my favorite timer is a Polder so i always just used it as a proper noun. thanks for using fun language
Yeah see someone said there were still a few Dutch people bobbing about Greenland. Figure maybe one of them could do it
Am American. Can confirm, we are very stupid, which means we’ll probably try this.
It would create new spots in the house and Senate. Changing the whole dynamic of political. So it’ll never happen and if it does… It’ll just be a territory like Puerto Rico or Washington DC.
Can’t have folks having representation
Here’s why. The Kansai International Airport filled about 180k cubic km of land for about $15b. Given the shape is about 8m square km, and an average seafloor depth of about 3km, this project would cost about $1500 trillion dollars. That’s slightly under half of the new ICE budget and would not be approved by Congress.
The Kansai International Airport filled about 180k cubic km of land for about $15b.
Actually, you’re wrong. According to the airport’s Wikipedia page, the volume filled was 180 million m³, or 0.18 km³. Taking your numbers of 8 million km² and a depth of 3 km we get a volume of 24 million km³ for a cost of $2 quintillion. That’s nearly a third of the US’s total defense budget!
Also, the US’s total land area is 9.5 million km², so this would require either stripping the top 2.5 km of ground from the entire US, or digging the state of Wyoming right down to the mantle. (I vote for the latter; who even lives in Wyoming anyways?)
Yea with those kind of dollars we should be kicking out more immigrants who jaywalked.
Please take down this post. It will give the current administration ideas. First term he just drew outside the lines and this is exactly that.
This project is underway. What do you think all that ocean plastic is for?
fun
Yes, but that’s not the reason why
Somebody get this to Trump’s desk! Let’s make it happen, people!
Sharpie it up!!
Good idea!
Hey, Canada, we need all your dirt.
They’re already sending Jordan Peterson, that’s quite a bit.
Oops, sorry, misread that as “shit”.
They can call it New Flevoland
No, Trump would auction off naming rights to corporations.
This is not a stupid idea if you think about it for long enough.

If you want trump to do, here’s what you’ll need to do:
Make the bottom border go straight across and connect to Mexico, then build that giant wall along the new mexican-us border.
The added benefit here is a larger border with Mexico, meaning he can run around screaming about the now larger border with Mexico, while simultaneously cutting off Mexico’s west coast from the ocean, fucking their supply routes. He’d absolutely be on board for this.
take it down one degree of absurdity and you just have Bojack Horseman
