Hmm what is the net worth of a few trillion gallons of fresh water? That iceberg is probably richer in total assets than most of the 1%.

Hmm. Now we're onto something.

Also, isn't the iceberg guilty of cultural appropriation? It will melt and blend right in with the ocean.

Hurts my brain to think on that scale. Christ 300 sq miles of 150 meter thick ice, insane.

Did you type that with a straight face?

Ice has been breaking off like this for HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of years. It's nothing to get a case of The Vapors over.

Good grief.
