For some reason, the Plymouth Rock is exactly the same as it was in 1620... right on the water’s edge.

That’s a powerful data point. No one has moved Plymouth Rock and the rising sea has not overtaken it in 400 years!

“For some reason, the Plymouth Rock is exactly the same as it was in 1620... right on the water’s edge.”

Plymouth rock has been moved a few times

“. The rock has been broken, split, and relocated multiple times over the past two and a half centuries, Donna D. Curtin, executive director of the Pilgrim Hall Museum in Plymouth, wrote in an email to The Associated Press. Such instances include the rock possibly being raised from its original location in 1749 due to the construction of a wharf, the removal of its top portion in 1774, and later its excavation and relocation onto the shoreline in 1920”

Texas has subsidence due to ground water pumping of the Gulf Coast aquifer this is why that land is sinking faster eustatic sea level change is not the reason. That said the earth is in the tail end of an interglacial epoch and sealevels rise during interglacial eras sometimes by hundreds of feet as the glaciers on land melt nothing not natural about that.
