@kibcol1049 Natural gas deficit will also have interesting consequences. At least Trump had the decency to start the war in spring.

@CosmicCactus @kibcol1049 as in no more commercial fertilizer for food production … in the spring

Nobody will need ozempic come winter on the northern hemisphere

@Kierkegaanks @kibcol1049 Yes, but freezing to death because you don't have heating would also be very unpleasant. Still might happen depending on how things develop.

But honestly I'm more worried about what happens if the problem doesn't get resolved before strategic fuel reserves run out. If Russia decides to open another front and there isn't enough fuel for the military I'm not sure what will happen.

@CosmicCactus @kibcol1049 i suspect 47 will ease russian sanctions (to allow for attacking the baltics)
