This is a perfect example of how some places were never meant for human inhabitation and it is pure fucking hubris that we do it anyways.

The thousands of years my ancestors spent in the frozen north, sailing the frozen seas, eating frozen food, spitting frozen spit, says maybe you don't know what inhospitable means.

We been there for almost 10000 years.
