How about a bridge between Turkey and Hungary?
That's just called a fork.
If you see a fork in the road...
By god you’ve just solved world hunger!
Is this what the tunnel jews were working on?
Connecting New York and York?
Whoa, this might be bigger than all of us.
Nope, connecting Zeeland, Netherlands with New Zealand.
As a Georgian, I approve of this project.
I like how it is completely ambiguous to which Georgian you are.
But I like to think you are a time traveler from Britain in the 1700s.
We are all Georgians on this blessed day
I am definitely choosing the 1700s British Georgians.
If I understand it correctly, people from Georgia the country actually call it Sakartvelo.
Yeah, and Finland is Suomi, but you never hear them saying "I'm Suomian"
Because the world cannot allow Georgia Prime to be reconciled. They would be to powerful.
We split them for a reason.
Why build a tunnel when you could just rename a place somewhere closer and pave a road?
Because it is less fun
How do you decide which Georgia gets left out?
Neither, you do it for both. And then you do the same for the two new Georgias…
We can get Elon to dig it.
I don’t think we can. He would use it for financial speculation, ~~fire~~ lay off half of the workers, build a barely useful prototype that cannot withstand a baseball, and charge people for blue marks that they’d use while attempting to travel in the tunnel. Elon’s a rich kid that has wasted his father’s emerald mine money. https://stuyspec.com/article/elon-musk-is-hopelessly-incompetent
Wouldn't want to drag the European Georgia back 200 years 😂
finally a place for atlantans to throw chicken bones
We’d fill all the streets within a fortnight
While we’re at it, let’s connect the two Parises. Or the three—they do call Atlanta the Paris of the south (is that Atlanta? Seems…wrong. I’ve been to Atlanta. And Paris. I see no resemblance.)
Two Paris's? I'm sure they are more than 2.
They clearly do not understand the magmatude of such a project.
It would get so hot that you'd "pop pop!"
Pop what?! What are they trying to to say?!
Doesn't have to be a striaght tunnel. It could follow the curvature of the earth.
Fault lines mostly. And Lava.
People get mad when I call it West Georgia.
That’s because that’s the part of Georgia closest to Alabama, and we don’t like including them
I believe it would be a 45 (actually 42) min journey under gravity power only?
(Assuming frictionless travel in a vacuum...)
At first I read Gravy Train and I was excited.. But then I saw Gravity... but I still want the Gravy.
I mean, you could fill it with gravy, then it would be a gravity gravy train 😆
United Lands Of Georgias! ULG! #georgiaSonmymind
!cartographyanarchy@lemm.ee
Instant sub! This is exactly what I've been looking for.
I think the better question is why did Russia allow the US State of Georgia to annex land in that area? Did no one think about the transportation issue before hand!?!
Welcome to Meta-Georgia
It goes all the way back to the 20th century nut and peach export conspiracy between the state of MAGAty Taylor Greene and the righteous nation of Georgia. MTG land was worried about having an even larger nut population if these exports were exchanged.
As someone from twenty minutes south of MTGs district I'd like to point out that nearly every district (minus the one north) touching hers is firmly blue and she only gets elected because every rich and rural town in the area has been gerrymandered to fuck into one district. Certain parts of Georgia are deep red but the only reason she gets elected is fucked up maps.
I haven't looked at the maps, but my gut instinct is that it sounds like blue gerrymandering. Put most of the red in one district so you get a firmer blue hold on the rest.
Well Georgia's purple now but has been red since the party switch, it's not democrats making these maps. This last election was the rule, not the exception. Anecdotally the whole region north west of Atlanta is solidly purple, and almost all Republican candidates are moderate. MTG wouldn't survive in any reasonably drawn district in this region of the state.
And MTG really won because her Democratic opponent was getting death threats from her initial rabid support base. He actually left Georgia during the 2016 election and his wife divorced him because of the amount of hate mail, death threats, and doxxing he received. Now, she only suffered no consequences because she never publicly called for him to be threatened. It's easy to win an election when your voter base is so violent that they force your opponent to flee the State for his and his family's safety.
