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.

To be sure, American capital isn’t abandoning the world outside entirely and Chinese investment continues to be greeted with suspicion in many countries. There is still a very real gap in the current value, or stock, of all the investments that the US and China have out in the world. At the end of 2024, the total value of US companies’ long-term physical investments overseas was some $6.8 trillion, almost $4 trillion of which was in Europe according to official US data.

annual investment in electricity generation rising from just over USD 500 billion over the last five years to more than USD 1 600 billion in 2030, before falling back as the cost of renewable energy technologies continues to decline.

Annual investment in fuel supply however drops from about USD 575 billion on average over the last half‐decade to USD 315 billion in 2030 and USD 110 billion in 2050. Th…

For #Caturday, a reminder that Widget remains available for adoption in the NYC metro area. She would prefer a calm house without kids (we are not a calm house). She's super affectionate! #CatsOfMastodon

A tabby cat laying on her side on a couch, with someone's hand rubbing her belly. the cat appears to be enjoying it, with her eyes closed and her two white paws forward.
A tabby cat lying on her back in the crack of a gray couch. Her hind legs are pressed against the back of the couch, and her head is at the front of the couch. Her white belly is pointed up in the air, and her front paw is extended as if she's supercat flying through the air.
Same pic of the same tabby cat in the couch crack, just from a slightly different angle. Now the cat is looking at the camera, and her front paw isn't extended as far out.
Same tabby cat on the same gray couch, this time she's near the end of the couch and sitting on her tummy. Her front paws are facing forward, but her head is turned to the side looking at the camera. She looks as if the person behind the camera just said something mean about her mother.
