Thanks for this. Based on the headline I assumed there was a massive floating landfill-"like island. Im assuming many others did as well.

Did you consider how high you imagined the "landfill-like island"? Is it reasonable to imagine a landfill is 10 miles high? 1 mile? 1 meter? 1 millimeter?

Perhaps your expectations are so skewed by clickbait that you didn't recognize that it's closer to an accurate description than being clickbait.

This is a strangely toxic response.
