NUCLEAR POWER.
IT DOESN'T CARE IF THE SUN'S SHINING OR THE WIND'S BLOWING.
IT DOESN'T NEED BATTERIES FULL OF COBALT OR LITHIUM DUG UP BY CONGOLESE CHILD SLAVES IN CHINESE-OWNED MINES.
AND IT HAS LOWER LIFETIME GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS THAN SOLAR, AND ABOUT THE SAME AS WIND.
IT'S NOT EVIL DEVIL MAGIC. IT'S METAL THAT GETS HOT AND BOILS WATER TO MAKE STEAM THAT TURNS TURBINES.
THERE'S NO SMOKE. THE SHIT THAT COMES OUT OF THE COOLING TOWER IS JUST STEAM.
NUCLEAR PRODUCES AT LEAST A HUNDRED TIMES LESS RADIOACTIVE POLLUTION THAN COAL WHICH CONTAINS TRACE RADIOACTIVE ELEMENTS WHICH GO INTO THE AIR WHEN BURNED.
NUCLEAR POWER DOESN'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE ALL NUCLEAR WASTE IS CONTAINED, AND NO NUCLEAR WASTE CASKET HAS EVER LEAKED IN THE HISTORY OF AMERICAN NUCLEAR POWER.
NUCLEAR POWER IS SAFE.
IT'S EFFECTIVE.
IT DOES LESS DAMAGE TO THE ENVIRONMENT THAN COAL, OR EVEN WIND AND SOLAR WHICH REQUIRE A FUCK TON OF LAND AND TOXIC METALS FOR WHICH WE HAVE NO PLAN TO DEAL WITH.
NUCLEAR POWER IS THE CLOSEST THING TO A PERFECT ENERGY SOURCE THE HUMAN SPECIES HAS EVER DISCOVERED.
WE'VE HAD THE TECHNOLOGY SINCE THE 1950S. IF WE EMBRACED IT FROM THE START, WE WOULDN'T HAVE CLIMATE CHANGE TODAY. WE COULD HAVE HAD ALL OF THE AIR CONDITIONING WE EVER WANTED, ALONG WITH EVERY OTHER MODERN CONVENIENCE WE'RE CONSTANTLY SHAMED FOR TODAY.
BUT WE SAID NO.
WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING AS A SPECIES?
ARE WE FUCKING RETARDED?
A hill I’ll die on:
Calling off work because your pet is sick, dying, or has passed away is every bit as valid as calling off for a human family member.
They can't even get the absolute most BASIC details right. I mean come on. This overheating would point the exhaust/venting back at the user's face. Pathetic. This is why I will never respect people who scream for remakes.
if the biggest companies in the world can release genetically modified mosquitoes into the environment, how can we possibly trust that the explosion in new tickborne illnesses is naturally occurring and not some dark extra governmental fifth gen warfare project
How exactly is Israel our greatest ally?
Specifically, what have they done to earn that title? Israel has not deployed troops alongside US forces in any conflict since its founding in 1948.
Israel is by far the single largest recipient of American foreign aid in our history.
Adjusting for inflation, US aid to Israel from 1951 to 2022 totaled $317.9 billion, making it the largest recipient of American foreign aid since World War II.
Why don't we worry about fixing problems for everyday Americans instead of paving their streets with American tax dollars?

No matter where you stand politically, I think we can all come together and agree that putting spyware in our cars that watches what we do and can decide whether we’re even allowed to drive is a direct violation of our 4th amendment right and absolute tyranny.
i lowkey fuck with how there’s no jobs and rent is infinity money and food is infinity money and fun activities are infinity money and every kind of side hustle is completely flooded and everyone’s angry and mean all the time
Everybody is afraid of nuclear after the DEVESTATING Three Mile Island Accident, where 0,000,000 people were KILLED!
After a buildup of steam caused one of the reactors to fail an evacuation notice was issued for five miles surrounding the plant in case something happened. This was widened by alarmists because they personally found it amusing.
After the catastrophic nothingburger supposedly happened, people were mildly inconvenienced that there was a voluntary evacuation. Barely detectable at all trace amounts of potentially dangerous materials Xenon 133, may have existed for up to several seconds.
This ultra hazardous material is the one your doctor makes you breathe in directly and hold if you receive a lung specific X-ray.
For our safety, the government has ensured that this would never not happen again by closing 41 reactors, leaving less than 100 remaining today and allowing bromine in our food until 2024. Due to the urgency and toxicity of Bromine, companies were given the short window of literally years to comply.
Yeah, that spec ops soldier shouldn’t have insider bet.
But man is tough to see a veteran get the book thrown at him while DC politicians, appointees, and staffers do this stuff with impunity.
Just doesn’t seem fair.
