apparently, there's a river in west virginia, virginia, and north carolina called the New River
it's the second-oldest river in the world
whoever named this thing needs to learn what "new" means

@Felthry I bet it was Nintendo -Alice
@Felthry How do they decide on the threshold for age anyway? I'm guessing not every river displacement resets age (for that part anyway) but what if the change is more drastic?
@BatElite Apparently, it's based on the age of mountains that the rivers have carved through.

@Felthry ... whoa.
@Felthry@awoo.space hey, on a cosmological timescale...
okay apparently it might be the third oldest, there's a pretty wide uncertainty on the age estimate of rivers, for obvious reasons
