      Notice they never said what the rock that was quarried was used for.

      Because nothing comes to mind with the vast amount of rock that would have been removed for it to be an actual quarry that looked like that.

        mud for the mudflood had to come from somewhere!

        (if you’re not familiar with the new mudflood/tartaria conspiracy theories, they’re wild. people just keep inventing wacky new shit to theorize about.)

      I just had the mental image of a scaled up front end loader about the size of Rhode Island pushing an ungodly amount of material around. So thanks for that
