It's so great that the US single handedly won the only war that ever happened in Asia. Good thing there hasn't been any major conflict on that side of the world since then.
When I was a kid in the 90's, I learned about greenhouse gasses by watching an old documentary from the 50's.
It is not even news that they knew about it -- internal studies that the companies paid for in the 80's showed that they would unquestionably be emitting enough to change global climate.
Gemstone is a market term. There is no division scientifically between a gem and a mineral.
Minerals form in specific geological settings as a result of temperature, pressure, and the composition of the materials reacting. On the surface of the Earth, we tend to mostly have low temperatures and low pressures. Most minerals are made of only 8 elements, one of which is carbon.
“Gemstone quality” is based on whether or not a mineral can be attractive when faceted. Most minerals do not pass this aesthetic.
To say that a mineral is common or rare is extremely dependent on context. Garnet, for instance, could be the gem that is targeted, or could be waste material that is an annoyance. Most diamond mines throw away massive amounts of garnet.
So, the statement in the title needs a lot of caveats.
My wife's last name is not the same as her paternal grandfather, because he criticized the Soviet leadership and was exiled to Siberia. His wife had to change the name of the rest of the family to keep from also being exiled.
My mom always got upset when my brother and I fought. "Take it outside!" she would say. One day, as we started to fight, my brother reminded me what she said. So, we calmly walked to the front yard, then we went at it.
There are plenty of people calling for violence right now. Find a few disaffected male 20-somethings already leaning towards those ideas, groom them to see if any will go further, coordinate a plan with them, and you can have an "unscripted" but predictable attack. I don't think that part is unbelievable, although I don't personally have a strong feeling on if this particular attack was staged.
I was involved with a project trying to simulate growth of a crystal cluster a couple of years ago. The guy doing the coding said it would be easy. It never worked and never came remotely close.
Organize going out and invite them. If they all say no, go out anyway, spend a little time out, and don't sweat it. Organize again. They will eventually both go with you and invite you to their stuff. That's more or less how society works.
This is a conspiracy theory. The quotes in the article, from NASA and from each individual interviewed, make it obvious that there is no larger pattern. Scientists, like all people, die. These cherry-picked examples have been weirdly strung together by the internet and then paid attention to by the administration for no apparent reason.

Hey, didn't see you there that day! Or my friend that I was supposed to meet. Couldn't get around much with that huge crowd in the way.

Got a Bluetooth controller. Changed everything.
It's also insanely efficient to post the link in the search and immediately have the paper.
Reading the graph, it looks like the bottom 50% have about $4T. A quick glance at the wealthiest 5 individuals shows that they have about $2T.
Not good.
Seems to be a lack of mineralogists here.

Who is this Zelensky guy, and why is he holding so many cards?
Not entirely true. I grew up fundamentalist, learned scientific reasoning, and got out of it.
Word alternatives are easy, how about Excel?

Somehow it still didn't make her happy.

I crossed my eyes, but I don't see the picture.

Geology: laughs in multiple working hypotheses.
