  • Even if you tell me yes, I’m still going to double check. You have no idea how many users just say that because they think it’s a copout (which, admittedly it kinda is) when it fixes so many problems.

    Also, once you lie to me you lose more respect than you would have gained by actually restarting. Trust is hard fought for and easily lost.




  • What do you think will replace fossil fuels as our baseload source? Because (to my understanding) renewables don’t have the output and stability required to fill that void.

    Watt for watt, nuclear is one of the safest methods of generation and generates tons of energy with minimal waste (which already has methods of storage and reprocessing).

    random, barely related thought

    It always amuses me to point out that fossil fuel plants like coal are more radioactive than nuclear power plants. Because nuclear plants have strict regulations they have to follow, but coal plants concentrate radioactive materials into the ash as part of their normal operation, which can make it to the outside.







  • Depending on the family member, working for them might be harsher than one they find on their own.

    My first “job” was working for my grandfather doing construction starting at like 14, and that fucker rode me like a rented mule. I loved my grandfather, but I fucking hated the asshole I worked for. Taught me to be grateful for what I don’t have to do to get by. And also how to be a petty fuck to shit bosses in a way that kept me on this side of the line, but only just barely.

    Of all the times in my life, that was one of them.
