My conclusion, “human-ice interactions” should be limited to a bourbon on the rocks :)

Transvestites are one of humankind’s worst scourges. That much is known. It’s settled science.

Okay, I’ll ask. How do you tell a male glacier from a female glacier? Or all of them female because they ‘calve’ icebergs?

I don’t know what to say. The sooner we tear this whole rotten edifice down and start over the better. This country needs a good pandemic.

Did this idiot actually say “human-ice interactions”?
The only human-ice interaction I’ve had was the other day on an ice-coated sidewalk...

This is what is “teaching” our children. No wonder a lot of them can barely read.

It is surprising that this is “an understudied” area.

Soooo...just blindfold oneself, smoke dope, and type random letters...would THAT:

1. Be more meaningful than the “research” itself, or

2. Less meaningful, or,

3. Equally meaningful?

The thing that bothers me is

Which has more ice, a glacier or an iceberg?

“...more just and equitable science and human-ice interactions...as well as gender equality, empowerment of women...”

Human-ice interactions?
Horny husband + frigid wife = not tonight, dear, I’m feeling empowered.

. How do you tell a male glacier from a female glacier?

The males are always on the lookout for a stray piece of ice.

“(4) Alternative representations of glaciers.”

I’ve been around some glaciers.

They’re a big glob of ice and snow.

Let’s see.....hmmmmm.....alternative representations of a big glob of ice and snow......

A toaster? No.....not big enough.

Joy Behar’s head? No.....too big.

A box of Crackerjacks? Yep......that’s it. A glacier is just a box of Crackerjacks.

Women are just as free to climb on glaciers and take measurements as men, they just aren’t choosing to do so.

This woman is writing a paper complaining about the lack of women in the profession, blaming it on patriarchy, and getting published by the magazine so they can prove they aren’t sexist.
And as a (theoretical) academic, she’s now added to her laundry list of publications AND can say she’s been published in a real STEM journal, not just SJW one.

I was watching “The Americans” season 3 and saw the “Bossom Buddies” show in the background of that show. That kind of cross-dressing was funny then because it was bizarre.
Now it is held up as an entitlement of the mentally ill.

I'm in academe but not in a discipline anyway related to this mindless tripe. However, I would have loved to be a reviewer on this piece. My entire peer review would be this:

You wrote: "However, the relationships among gender, science, and glaciers – particularly related to epistemological questions about the production of glaciological knowledge – remain understudied." This is as it should be.

Tell me this isn’t a computer-generated joke that was presented a bit early for April Fool’s Day. Please.

If you can’t tell me that, tell me that this journal, and the clown writing for it, does not get government support. Please!!!
