I really have.

I'm really feeling like you want this to happen.

50 years in, and the aftershocks and the volcanic eruptions are our new normal.

And we're assuming it's going to be freezing cold.

So we are 100 years in.

And you know, there is a massive pool of magma rising and creating a ring of fire, tracing the outline of the lost coast.

Does this sound plausible?

There's a lot of volcanic eruptions.

North America took Silicon Valley with it.

Have we lost our global megaphone?

Tory, what do you think?

Angela, if we stay in this timeline, paint us a picture of the Earth map in, say, half a million years or a million years.

I started this experiment by deleting a continent and ended up rewriting the entire history of the Earth.

It turns out you can't just remove a massive piece of the puzzle without the whole picture falling apart.

Because it's not just land.

It's a carrier of culture, of human brilliance and millions of years of evolutionary records.

It's a hole that leaves a permanent scar, even if the planet eventually heals.

I suppose there is one silver lining.

At least we'd finally get a break from the endless superhero reboots.

Small verses.
