      Lol I literally had a professor tell us one time that fracking is perfectly fine, I mean people have been using dynamite for over a century and that’s totally the same thing!

    It’d be amazing if they made a whole area of the state uninhabitable. Can’t image the displaced residents would be inclined to do some funny things…

      i have less than no faith for the texian to direct their anguish at an appropriate target. at closest it’ll be some fool whose house was flattened by an energy company shooting up a dmv

    1. Captioners couldn’t be bothered to spell “Hermleigh” correctly
    2. You know what would make environmentalists feel just so owned? Triggering human-made earthquakes centered about 54 miles away from the massive conventional weapons caches stored at Dyess Air Force Base. God, we would just be so owned if Texaco managed to blow all of the underground jet fuel tanks and anti-aircraft missile sites immediately outside Abilene and just piss thousands of gallons of benzene-laced JP-8 directly into the ground water tables for a century to come, to say nothing of the plume of carcinogenic shit that would be unleashed on the I-20 corridor. So owned.

    Midland is a small city, and many of the residents make their paycheck through the oil industry, directly or indirectly. They’re making enough money that they could probably buy the whole city and relocate the population elsewhere. Look up the Eagle Ford region if you want to learn about fracking closer to more humans.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
