tilthat

TIL the scientists (and everyone else) in Antarctica have ‘heedless sex’ (16,500 condoms are distributed to 200 people spending the winter), taking ‘ice wives’ and ‘ice husbands,’ and also binge-drink, do drugs and generally go completely nuts, and is pretty much the only reason anyone goes back.

Scientists fuck and will continue to fuck until we stop them.

Go far enough north and you get the same effect. Depression because of the lack of sunlight is also a thing
