A bridge that crosses the Yellowstone River in Montana collapsed, plunging a freight train carrying hot asphalt and molten sulfur into the rushing water below. No injuries were reported. Officials shut down drinking water intakes downstream while they evaluated the danger from the accident Saturday morning. Railroad crews were at the scene near the town of Columbus, about 40 miles west of Billings. The river was swollen with recent heavy rains although it is unclear whether that contributed to the bridge collapse. The Yellowstone saw record flooding in 2022 that caused extensive damage to Yellowstone National Park and adjacent towns in Montana.
agree, it’s a Frank Lloyd Wright thing maybe mixed with Esperanto. It comes from abbreviating United States of North America (USONA), then because it’s popularity around the time of it’s invention by Zamenhof, was adopted into Esperanto as the name of USA, somewhat modified as “Usono” https://eo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landnomo_kaj_loĝantoj_pri_Usono
I’m not sure if @sovietsnake@lemmygrad.ml is an esperantisto or if it’s used in other contexts as well
