If it's a tree stump, then something cut it off flat at the top, and I'm far more afraid of that thing than the tree stump.
Paul Bunyan.
Duh.
America's Kaiju
No no you got it all wrong, Paul Bunyan is the kaiju tamer of Babe the Blue Ox
I wanna see a Paul Bunyan vs Godzilla movie.
Or Godzilla vs Superman!
There is a Godzilla vs Superman comic. King Kong becomes a green lantern xD

"In our arrogance we thought it would be there forever, our path to the heavens, to enlightenment, always within reach whenever it was desired. Instead we turned our eyes and souls to the Earth in any and every way to exploit it for our own desires. It was Astrid who could take our hubris no longer, climbing into Yggdrasil's branches, then reaching down the trunk and severing it cleanly with the most silent whisper. Rising to the sky in Yggdrasil, she took our best potential with her to the heavens and left us to the Earth precisely what we had lusted after so cravenly. 'Suffer in your righteousness now, children of Earth. You have sealed your own destruction' said Astrid at last." Source: some BS I just made up.
This goes hard af
unfortunately, or fortunately, i think it's more realistic to the mythos that thor chopped it down for firewood while drunk or something
If anyone is actually curious, it’s an igneous intrusion - initially formed underground by magma pushing up into sedimentary rock and cooling there. Rather than an eruption of magma out of the ground, this was formed by the softer rock around the hardened magma eroding away and leaving this uncovered.

The Lokota name translates to Bear Lodge, it's a sacred site for them and calling it Devil's Tower isn't great.
When have colonisers and 'settlers' worried about that stuff? [yucatan (idkwym), calcutta (cut yesterday)]
Honey, what does this remind you of?
Oh man, wtf is this movie? I remember seeing it when I was really young but can't recall what it was

The nipple of the goddess of reason.
But who cutted the tree?
