That's something I find funny. The second most abundant element in the universe and we're running out of our supply.

Because we don't have spaceships to go out into the universe to collect it, so all we have is what has been trapped in deposits underground.

and a lot of it has been wasted on stupid shit like party balloons, and the overwhelming majority of the population does not understand how critically important helium is to manufacturing and medicine.

It's not a laughing matter. The world used to be He He He He He He He but soon there'll be no more He He He.
