  1. And now they’re homeless. And now they’ll rot in the streets. And they’ve lost every item they ever cared about. What remains of it sank to the bottom of that hole never to be seen again.

    I know that if this happened to me I would become a serious, potentially lethal, danger to myself. I’m very serious when I say that. I have an expansive Star Wars Legends collection, some Halo books including the Forerunner trilogy, a Nintendo Switch I bought with my own hard-earned money, a family I care about (I live with my Dad, a close friend, a dog, and two cats), and time. That last one is a big one. Time. While some parents kick their children out at 18, my own have encouraged me to take my time, finish college, and then leave on my own terms without any stress to speak of. With rent cheaper than anywhere else in the city to boot.

    I have a grandmother who would be able to take over in the event my father dies, but she lives in Newfoundland while I live in Alberta. Alberta is an economically-sound province. Newfoundland isn’t and hasn’t been since the fishing industry there was sacked and gutted by those filthy foul feds. I would be hard-pressed to find work there.

    What Earth gives, Earth can take away.

  2. It is largely because developers build homes near man made mosquito ponds that they call "lakes" so they can call the property waterfront. The underground water eats away the limestone.

  3. dont want sink holes? tell big companies to stop drilling for oil. they replace the oil underground with water. the water slowly evaporates and creates a empty gap. the gap rises and creates sinkholes and sometimes earthquakes. Also we are wondering why the core stopped spinning and cooling down while we are taking oil.
