Reply to Xcel Energy to power down Monticello nuclear plant early after more radioactive water leaks out by VaccumSaturdays
Man, it is really a shame how many people are vastly misinformed about nuclear power and basic science. This is why we can’t have nice things. This is why our climate will inhospitable to us in a few decades; ignorance.

Power in the air - cocoa, sugar, etc - is hella flammable. Grain silos and flour mills are at high risk of going boom.

Nuclear waste is a made up issue. Considering what’s coming for us when the climate shifts radically, the nuclear waste issue is nothing. We can safely store waste, and eventually, it will be fuel for certain types of reactors.

Where are you hearing that they cut corners? Nuke plants are extremely expensive and are built by experts.

No, I mean today’s Muslim countries. You know, the more relevant comparison. If a country becomes more Muslim today, is it more likely to become like today’s muslim countries, or like those from centuries ago?
Can you point to any Arab-Muslim country today that’s diverse and tolerant to women, minorities, LGBT?

This guy kidnapped two people at gunpoint and held them hostage for ransom and they're requesting a $100,000 bond???? What the absolute fuck? This is exactly the type of person who should be held without bond let alone a small $100,000 bond? So this guy who kidnapped two people and held them at gunpoint for ransom could be back on the street if he can come up with $10,000 down for a bail bondsman? Jesus Christ

their business model relies on cities/countries not enforcing their own laws/policies. if the regions going to enforce them, its better business for aBNB to just bail. same as any scam. once a mark passes the 'they're smarter than an absolute fucking moron' test, its on to the next potential victim

21 deaths is insane.
Genuine question - I don't live in an area that experiences these types of events - Is there much warning before a tornado in these areas? I understand if they form over water there may be radar(?) that picks it up, but over land? Does it depend on the storm?
EDIT: Y'all have given me so much insight into what it's like first hand - thank you. I didn't really have any concept of what you experience until now.

So, for what it's worth in the case of Syria

Everyone IS using this justification. Iran's in there, Russia is in there, Israel is in there, and probably other foreign nations as well that I'm drawing a blank on. It's a free for all shit show.

NWS predicted an insane storm to roll through the area, and they were very right, unfortunately. 😔

Fyi the first link is to a video that is of a tornado that hit previously in Alabama. It’s not the twister that pretty much deleted Amory.

But today's Christian countries are also discriminatory against minorities, women and LGBTQ people.
