@jd Recently learned that the Halley Research Station in Antarctica was instrumental in detecting the ozone hole.

I guess that answers the question of whether we should support research in Antarctica.

@jd the depressing reality is ozone. Emissions are going up again. Nobody’s gonna talk about it because it’s all bunnies and butterflies with electrification or for the Maga crowd, clean, beautiful coal or some shit.

@jd Plus, that place has some top-notch #architecture.

@jd The fact is that the original poster most probably didn't read the answer, didn't understand it, or both.

@IAmDannyBoling @bouriquet @jd As long as only they are snorting that stuff themselves, I'm fine with that. Then they can also soon experience what great idea killing subsidized healthcare was..

@jirpok @jd I've heard the same stupid comment about acid rain.

[ariaflame@masto.ai]

@kralcttam @jd Yes, but look what happened to him.

@jd

Underpants gnomes like that bearded clam Matt Walsh believe that anytime something is fixed or cured, they've also had something taken away from them, because no one consulted them.

Giving weight to Matt Walsh's opinions and thoughts and views and musings and ponderings and ideas and determinations, about anything, is giving a Nazi an inch.

Walsh should be pissing and moaning in a bus station parking lot for spare change. Instead of a paycheck.

Yes! Truly, Thomas Midgely Jr. is a bizarre tale.

@jd I hate it so much every time ever we avoided a major catastrophe because we noticed it before it was too late there are people saying stuff like this.
