AERIAL PHOTOS SHOW HOW YELLOWSTONE'S FLOOD MAY HAVE FOREVER CHANGED THE LANDSCAPE

Aerial photographs are beginning to tell the tale of how Yellowstone National Park and the surrounding landscape may be forever changed after historic flooding this week. Days of rain compounded by rapid snowmelt caused the Yellowstone River to swell to 13.8 feet, more than two feet above the previously held record of 11.5 feet. The surging floodwaters eroded river banks, destroyed bridges and washed out roads, which may have to be rebuilt elsewhere in the future. The Weather Channel

The YouTubers Are Not Okay | Vox

THE YOUTUBERS ARE NOT OKAY

Posting too much YouTube and consuming too much YouTube can result in something called "YouTube brain." What is that, you ask?
