Ideally (but not perfectly enough) I join with activist groups to work for a liveable climate and oppose war.
As a child, I was plagued by nuclear nightmares. Only after I joined with anti-nuclear groups did they cease.

Yeah.

Agreed.
Not so slo-mo though.

There will be many more.
UNLESS we relentlessly protest and resist this Reich.

Oh, hell.
The Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant needs reliable external power to operate its pumps, even though all six reactors are in a cold shutdown.
Incredibly dangerous to all people everywhere.

Right.
Clean-looking or not, you're courting infection with Campylobacter, E. coli, Listeria, Salmonella, Brucella, and Cryptosporidium, and H5N1 when you drink it.
