    So I grew up next to #Chernobyl and this is, well, TERRIFYING.A story for y’all: I’m from a city called Zhytomyr, 2 hours west of Kyiv in the North of #Ukraine. We were downwind of the Chernobyl #nuclear power plant when the 1986 disaster happened.I wasn’t born for another 12 years, but my childhood was filled with stories and the aftermath of it all. Things like:- My grandmother worked as a head doctor in a hospital and rehabilitation facility exclusively for children of Chernobyl victims to treat the extremely high prevalence of Tuberculosis and other severe health complications. (To specify: these were SECOND GENERATION of exposure).- A lot of the kids in that facility were orphans, because their parents died young from health problems.- My uncle’s wife was born in Pripyat. She was 1 year old when the disaster happened. Her parents were told to evacuate while given no information about what happened. They had to pack up their things and rush out to an unfamiliar city with their baby, never to see the rest of their belongings, apartment, or hometown again. - When I was a kid, it became so common to see weirdly mutated animals and insects that even 2-3 year olds would make jokes about “Chernobyl mosquitos” and I wouldn’t even flinch seeing occasional giant bugs, dark frogs, weird-looking dogs.- We’d frequently hear of nearby farms having issues with their animals being born too mutated to survive or random outbreaks from contaminated water / food. Crops would randomly fail. People would get poisoned on a regular basis. This all got less common as I grew up. - My mother still remembers being a little girl, 10 years old, and looking outside from their balcony at the clouds blowing over from Chernobyl that day. People were told to not go outside and to shut all the windows, but not given an explanation as to why. My mother swears that the rain looked different. They weren’t able to go and buy more food for the kitchen for multiple days. Anyway - nuclear safety isn’t a joke. I don’t understand how this level of carelessness can happen after Chernobyl and Fukushima. https://www.404media.co/power-companies-are-using-ai-to-build-nuclear-power-plants/

    Humans are insane.Case and point - there were FULL PLANS to make a TANK driven with #nuclear power......Something that is meant to get shot at, and gets blown up no matter how much armor you give it as humans are SPECTACULAR at figuring out ways to blow stuff up.Someone had to go "hey guys, maybe radioactive material getting scattered everywhere by explosions, or irradiated tank crews are really bad ideas," as radiation shielding was also an issue.#writing #military #history #humor #war
