No, I don't need to do anything for you, so go fucked yourself.

the Colorado river is almost empty, as is the Mississippi river.

something serious is wrong here.. our drinking water is disappearing.

Watershed? Can you remember the Mississippi ever going dry? I bet not.

Yes, watershed. It drains over three million square miles, which have been dry due to the planet stabilizing its temperature using the el nino/la nina system on the other side of the world. This will continue at least through this year, but a 4th year would be highly unusual.

a previous low https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Vhf6UbE5s50/UP2JDqNNFYI/AAAAAAAAA9Q/4z9yNjjCe00/s1600/2010+belle+chasse.png

from https://cuahsihis.blogspot.com/2013/01/extremes-on-mississippi-river.html

very recent, mentioning that we're still several feet away from previous records, but of course it's not a self-stabilizing system it's your fault for using plastic straws: https://a-z-animals.com/blog/the-mississippi-drought-explained-why-is-the-river-drying-up/

A saner take: it's dry out there, but not the worst ever https://www.wvik.org/environment/2021-06-21/no-records-yet-but-mississippi-river-at-very-low-levels

They won't let shipping cease on the river either in case you're worried but p.s. i didn't notice you concerned about all the poison that comes from shipping https://www.businessinsider.com/mississippi-river-drought-may-be-over-us-army-corps-dredging-2023-1?op=1

I must have missed the part about using straws, would you mind rephrasing that?

Ok, you were joking..

When I posted an article stating that perhaps we have fkd up our water tables by drilling too deep, you attempted to poke holes in my topic by "joking".?

Just fyi, I am not joking.
