@dwarvenallfather It's less the amount of rain, rather the frequency. Desert soils with high clay contents are some of the worst for underground construction since they're bone dry most of the year. When the rain comes, they swell and produce intense pressures.
One good thing the government actually does is survey soils across the US for planning purposes: https://websoilsurvey.nrcs.usda.gov/app/
@deprecated_ii On the CAP end, currently they're only providing relief in GA.
@dwarvenallfather Backfill with a couple feet of crusher and you'll be fine. Don't end up like this guy:
I was going to effortpoast, but then I remembered I'm a dog, so I stopped.
@dwarvenallfather Check your soil types before you bury anything. Expansive soils will crush anything underground like a soda can when it rains if you don't design with them in mind.

No matter what Team B attempts it is vital to keep up the general strike of the Great Resignation and the refusal to join the military.

One of the best depictions of super-intelligence and what that might look like from the inside view can be found in a short story by sci-fi writer Ted Chiang.
The story is called "Understand" and you can find it in his anthologies, or as a free audiobook on the internet archive here: https://archive.org/details/TedChiangUnderstand
Very cool and unique story.
