How am I supposed to know how big that is? I don’t see a banana anywhere…

Uh, antartica is about as wide as the U.S. and about as tall as it is wide.
So, I just feel like I’m being bamboozled here

Yeah it’s definitely not a real projection. If Antarctica looked like that (taken top down) then the rest of the continents would not be oriented like that.

Just look at the map, what more proof do you need?

Ok, but that’s unironically a great map for a TTRPG campaign.
I’m thinking Lovecraft. Plateau of Leng and all that. There’s just this huge, impassable land that goes south for what seems like forever. And…things…occasionally wander out of it.

My country holds a claim and permanent population to a portion of antartica.

Serious Q: isn’t there actually a lot resources in Antarctica? Or is it just too difficult to set up shop there?

Most planets, and much of our planet, is uninhabitable. This is the threat of climate change. Antarctica is a desert.

Oil rigs and mines aren’t exactly living off the land. Dropping enough preserved food off to supply a facility wouldn’t be too difficult. The main reason nobody’s doing it is the international treaties involved
- Juno ( @Juno@beehaw.org ) English1•2 months ago
That’s not the point. The point is the uninhabitable and impossible to live off the land places are expanding on our planet.
