I only just noticed that Alaska holds the territory that would have given the Yukon access to the ocean. How did the U.S. manage that?

Working example of why full-text #search in Mastodon would be good, actually: If you search for "alaska earthquake" right now you'll find more or less nothing.

If you follow the #earthquake hashtag, you'll get at least something, but it'll be buried in all the other earthquake-tagged stuff.

So in order to get up-to-date information about the Alaska earthquake you'd have to screw around reverse-engineering hashtags like "#Alaska" or "#AlaskaEarthquake".
