SCREAMING. I just got a Youtube ad from DeBeers using Lily James to greenwash mined diamonds as the all-natural authentic ecofeminist girlboss alternative to lab-made diamonds
The diamond mining industry, connecting millions of people around the world! Through the power of blood, sweat and slave labor, sure, but who cares about silly little details like that.

So…
This is the town of Mirny. In Russia. It’s in the Sakha autonomous republic.
As you can see it’s got a GIANT FUCKING HOLE in it.
Apparently it’s a diamond mine. One of the largest man made holes in the world.
As I said it’s a diamond mine so they gotta dig pretty deep to find that shit.
But this hole is FUCKING HUGE!
It looks like some kind of fucking abyss! The maw of hell itself!
God forbid they start digging or mining too deep. Who knows what unearthly horrors they’ll find in there!
Oh NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Anyway!
Here’s another pic of the city for perspective.
With the hole included of course.
Behold:
Orbital view.
Ghastly stuff.
And there’s buildings right next to the cursed thing!
See! Fucking apartments, warehouses and shit.
Right next to The Hole.
The great fucking abyss!
I wouldn’t be surprised if one day we see some vast featureless black monolith emerging from it to herald the coming of the Starborne Ones!
(Whoever they are)
Just hypothetically.
It looks cursed!
Imagine living in an apartment next to that infernal thing! (The people there won’t have to)
You just wake up and the first thing you see is fucking VOID!
Fucking nightmare fuel!
