Third Avenue Bridge, which connects New York’s the Bronx to Manhattan, got stuck in an open position due to the high heat on Monday.
FDNY officers arrived in boats and fired water at the structure to try and cool down the metal, which expanded after high temperatures in the city, officials say.
The incident caused major traffic delays during one of the hottest days of the year in New York but reopened on the same day.
Okay… so… Republicans… I know you’re not big on science, but the Earth is not supposed to get so hot that metal expands to the point that we can’t move a metal bridge that’s reliably moved for a very long time.
Infrastructure in NY is crap, but unrelated to this particular bridge problem.
Lol you should never follow up poor NY leadership with /s regardless of the party in power. Them not thinking they needed to include extended magazines in the SAFE Act because they thought magazines were disposable and would phase themselves out as long as they couldn’t be sold, and the entire fucking legalization of recreational marijuana shit show should be more than enough to remove the /s and that’s all without including anything that shit for brains cuomo did lol
the Earth is not supposed to
I don’t think we get to say what the earth is “supposed to” do.
For most of the earths existence it wouldn’t be possible for humans to exist. I don’t think it really gives a shit about a bridge we built.
Changing topics. Good strategy.
Not even a little bit. I fully believe humans are causing climate change. It is going to make life as we know it on this planet completely different in the very near future.
I still think the planet itself doesn’t give a shit, and claiming there is a way it is “supposed to be” is pretty narrow minded.
