This is so interesting. I just got done posting a similar comment to snooggums, but I didn't realize it was just a narrative. I went looking for some sources for the things you were saying and lo and behold... looks like it's not as "fixed" as is commonly claimed!

Here's NASA's data on the hole(s).

And here's an infographic I found:

I'm dumb, is the blue the hole? What do the colors mean.

Proof I'm dumb: My best guess, there is a puddle that sometimes catches on fire and a flock of yellow warblers try to get a drink.

No worries, I'm dumb too.

Here's a site with more information, and even an animation that shows how the hole fluctuates throughout the year!

Thanks! I see what they meant that it closed on 2018, then got worse it appears now. Hopefully we can get that fixed and the ocean currents stabilized and the CO2 levels down and the animals and plant life back. One step at a time, maybe a nap first.
