Hazel has her own barn a few yards over, but she loves to hang out in the doorway of *my* barn (the cabin next-door). I spend a lot of time looking at screens all day. Hazel's my antidote. I'm sure you spend a lot of time looking at screens, too... 🧵⬇️

This @WSJ piece by @bopanc on Putin's pursuit of longevity (https://t.co/fQb3GtBbqe) is as scary as it is sad & telling. It inspired this re-post of an ironic AI video I made a year back. Still strikes my dark funny bone. Share if it strikes you!😈

Mass-produced luxury article. 🤡

Hazel should start her own Etsy shop and sell ironic mugs that say, “Culture Industry Rescue.”

⚛️The nuclear energy industry wants you to forget more than 80 years of a recurring, historical nightmare.

The Trinity Test, the life of Oppenheimer, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and fears of nuclear attack endless repeat in media.

Dread of atomic power has become so deeply embedded into your subconscious mind, it's going to be difficult for you to accept the nation-wide proliferation of nuclear reactors on the rise.

What narrative will the nuclear industry try to persuade you to believe to give atomic power a positive spin?

Here's a short video explaining why forceful media campaigns are on their way to convince you to forget an historic cultural fear ⬇️🎥(~8 mins.)
