Its pretty wild.
A $250,000 per seat Titanic tourist submarine has imploded

Out chea thuggin in my home office.
Former OceanGate employee was fired after raising concerns about sub's worthiness to descend extreme depths and refusing to greenlight manned tests of early models. He was director of marine operations and responsible for safety of all crew and clients.

And hour and half in they lost contact..idk how deep it is by that point but I’d assume their sub, even if in parts, would’ve surfaced..as supposedly it takes 8 hours to make that full decent to 12,000 feet

They have about 32 hours of air left.....

Correct
When the Titanic sank, alot of the furniture/tables and other things floated to the top that very night
some even surfaced so fast that they killed a few of the survivors in the water on impact

If we assume a constant dive speed, that's ~1,500 ft per hour. After about an hour and a half, that's 2250 ft so the pressure acting on it is 68 times that of normal atmospheric pressure. Water is rushing in, it's not coming back up.
Edit: People on Twitter said it was actually at 10,000 ft when it lost contact. A hull breach at 10,000 ft is not survivable. Just the pressure change would probably cook them alive from the increase in temperature due to adiabatic compression.
My math might be off so take this with a grain of salt but if we assume a normal pressure of like 1 bar and assume the temperature inside the submersible is 70 Fahrenheit (294 K) and we know that the pressure at 10,000 ft is 305.96 bar we can try to find what the temperature would be during this process. (T2/T1)=(P2/P1)^((gamma-1)/(gamma)) with gamma being 1.4, I think, for air.
T1=294 K, P1=1 Bar, P2=305.96 bar. Solving for T2 gives 1508.47 K, or 2255.576 Fahrenheit.
This isn't the Titanic though, it's a submersible. There is no furniture and stuff to float back up. Additionally, this submersible is basically a pressure chamber so a hull breach is way more violent than a hole in a surface vessel letting on water.

now compare that bullshit hoopty sub to the cutting-edge submersibles James Cameron was using when he explored the Titanic and the Mariana Trench..........

because its mind-numbingly stupid to hitch a ride in that fuckin steel coffin
but rich wypipo was willing to pay $250,000+ to die like this

If I'm in charge i would suspend the search after the air clock runs out
The budget for this kind of search and rescue is EXPENSIVE
Why exhaust resources? That thing is a sunken tomb

There's more shit in the ocean that we don't know about vs shit on this planet we do.
A very small percentage of the ocean has been charted.
Like as wild as an underwater city with Intelligent water dwelling inhabitants sounds, there's absolutely nothing to disprove it cuz we really would have no way of knowing for sure.

Another incredible example of the sea and how little we know
