Image shows multiple ice pillars reaching up hundreds of meters above the horizon over ground light sources as ice crystals suspended horizontally in the frigid air reflect those light sources into a concentrated vertical beam.

@msh @UberZeitgeist fwiw I *absolutely* read that comment as "sorry this place isn't for you, but it's great for me." Just imagine hearing that in a real world setting: you go to a library, a woman gets catcalled incessantly, she says "that's enough" and someone replies to her saying "I'm sorry you're going through that, but I love it here."

I know I'm not welcome on Fedi.
