you entirely misread their comment lol

Oh, for sure! I wasn't meaning to call you condescending, comrade, I was probably just emotionally responding to the kind of talk I've seen on

Current status, definitely not an ongoing hazard. At the time, though, a husband-wife team that joined up as a radiation monitoring technician and a senior surveillance technician, the Thompsons, spoke out about a health/dosimeter badge coverup and had to flee town after a stranger warned them their life was in danger. When they settled in NM and began working on a book about it with the wife's brother, him and the husband were run off the road, killing the brother while a manuscript of the book that was in the trunk went 'missing'. Epidemiology links increased rates of health issues that stem from ionizing radiation to both the locations surrounding the incident and the areas downwind. Jean Trimmer, in the area, reported a flash of heat and rain, followed by bad sunburns, hair turning white and falling out, and an idiopathic atrophy of the kidney that warranted presentation to a symposium of doctors nearby from how strange it is. None of these are consistent with the official estimates of exposure, but do match the symptoms of acute exposure of a much higher dose.

Of course, this was also a time when the Soviets presented an information warfare challenge. On the same token, disasters of any size and sort are often covered up when there's a cold war justification. See: the pandemic (ongoing, unabated)

Potentially, the only difference between this and foreign radioactive disasters is the competency of US intelligence. I would not be surprised to learn much later that a coverup was instituted, which would have been perfectly possible especially in the information environment of the time. I recommend nuclear energy advocates cease condescendingly using it as an example of nuclear panic, and instead make an effort to compassionately address people's concerns over potential health hazards and lack of government support in the future. At the very least, to avoid potential embarrassment and backlash if a "full story" ever comes out about the incident.

paying respects

looks like it will be fun, but I'm still waiting on Punished Zelda in a 3D adventure. I'm excited to see the multi-item system, though, I always felt 2D adventure games with distant milestones for new items or abilities didn't match up with the pacing I'd want

Wrong way around. It's the national security types in the White House that are claiming to believe in aliens. The Trumpers think it's all demons beaming woke ideas into the brains of the youth

Yeah I'd believe any of this was about pharma impact if ANYBODY on their side was mentioning that Moderna and Pfizer get their vaccines approved before other manufacturers and to greater demographics, or the fucking moneybags we gave them by privatizing the vaccines in exchange for truncating their market by falling into institutional pandemic denial

The Large Hadron Collider at CERN is the most complex and sensitive particle physics experiment ever constructed. If it hasn't found evidence for "dark matter" or "cosmic strings", some billion-dollar camera you stick in space is not gonna do it either.

we're not forcing them, this is just for extra ration credits, which are required unless you wish to die early from the toll taken by skibidi toiling

don't start the war without us, guys
