Antarctic extremophiles?
Do they wear little ‘Make Antarctica Great Again’ hats?
No, you’re thinking of Antarctic xenophobes.
Ah, I see.
But what about the hats?
this looks good! everyone loves a good tardigrade right? water bears for the win!
Hatters gonna hat.
I met plenty of extremophiles when I worked on the Ice. Six months at the South Pole makes everything a bit extreme.
I was rather surprised to learn that she was looking at microbes. All the extremophiles I met in Antarctica were humans.
I’m pretty sure Waldman is an Antarctic Xeniphile.
But the Flat Earthers said that no one can go to Antarctica because the government patrols every inch of it
What would be the opposite? Extremophobes, Connoisseurs of Comfort, or Mavens of Moderation?
If you’re camping in Antarctica, you’re an extremophile yourself.
Maybe the last video goes like this:
“I made this journey in the hope of finding new extremophiles in the coldest place on Earth. Turns out, I didn’t need to go anywhere. One was right in front of me all along.”
