A comment from a New York Times article reads: “if it was meant to happen, it’s who we are. If no one is seriously standing up to this, it was meant to be. I’m against it, but I don’t see any leaders standing up to this in earnest, in any seriousness, in any serious way. Therefore, it was meant to be America’s destiny. I find this incredibly so sad that this is who we are after all”

Found the evidence of what one Dutch restaurant called “nachos”
A photo of “nachos” served at a restaurant in the Netherlands. It’s a pile of tortilla chips with some cheese haphazardly sprinkled here and there.

Whelp.
A post from NOAA that reads “These minerals are currently sitting atop the sea floor, waiting to be scooped up and processed. Through NOAA’s mapping tech and licensing abilities, we are helping industry leaders find, collect and bring back these minerals to benefit the USA and domestic manufacturing.”
