there’s no disputing a ~100-foot-deep (~30-m), 226-foot-wide (69-m) pit of relentless fiery fury that’s been burning for around 50 years in the Karakum Desert of Turkmenistan
So I guess they want it to close. They’re draining the methane from elsewhere
Hope so. Burning the methane to CO2 is a lot better than releasing it as is for the climate.

BABA IS YOU

How many billionaires do you think can fit down there?
We won’t know until we try
Which side of the door are we on?
Are we inside hell? Or outside hell?
“Hell is other people”, so I’m guessing we’re on the inside.

If the door is open, does it matter?
There is no door, wait, no,… there might be.
it will matter when it’s gone…
Only because it’s now empty and all the devils are here
It’s too late! The bowels of hell have already been emptied, the demons walk among us…
Rip and tear

I had no idea ඞ existed
it’s unrelated burmese script
the character represented by chr(sum(range(ord(min(str(not())))))) is way cooler
I needs to get me a BFG9000!
What’s the power level of them big fuckin’ guns, anyway…?
They need 4 D cell batteries, so big power levels.
maybe things will start to get better 🤷
No, this is Hell trying to keep us out.
isn’t this like stranger things season 5 spoilers
I don’t know, it really feels like it’s starting to open faster.
You know things are shit in the world when even hell wants nothing to do with it…
Davoth: “Pack it up boys. Unleashing our full fury would actually be an improvement.”
In 2013, the crater’s flame intensity and temperatures were at its recorded peak. At the same time, renowned Canadian explorer, George Kourounis, became the first – and only – person to enter the crater wearing a full heat-reflective Kevlar/Nomex suit and a firefighter’s Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) to provide oxygen. He descended to the 752 °F (400 °C) crater floor and retrieved soil samples. Scientists later found extremophile bacteria living in the scorched earth samples Kourounis provided.
Wtf that’s the craziest part of this story!
Oh yeah, extremophiles are pretty metal. Like, some of them can survive being in space.
Some are literally metal. See: Chrysomallon squamiferum: a deep-sea extremophile mollusk that lives on volcanic vents in the Indian Ocean. They have a shell made of iron sulphide and aragonite. Their lower body also has an armor coat of sclerites (fancy word for “hardened body part of invertebrates”, like pieces of an exoskeleton) made of mineralized iron, giving them their colloquial name “Scaly-Foot Snail”
