Sedimentation Reveals Age

This is from a Facebook post from Barrie, Ontario, accompanied with the following text:

”Photo I took this morning of a snow bank in the City of Barrie.

If you look closely, you will identify distinct Human Eras in the 2026 winter season.

The bottom layer is the “I’ll shovel later” period

The middle layer is the “It will melt tomorrow” period

and the top layer is the “Why do we live in Barrie" period.

Local scientists say that by April they expect to uncover a perfectly preserved Tim Hortons cup and declare it a historic artifact.”

Looks like a nonconformity on the far left
