Billionaires and new governors

Billionaires and their tools are organizing to fight against whatever measures newly elected Democratic governors propose.

Census and citizenship

vendredi 17 mai 2019 à 02:00

The US Census Bureau is looking to get data about each person's citizenship status from other government agencies.

If the Department of Heartlessness and Suffering already has a person's address, that the Census Bureau gets a copy would not make the person more vulnerable. On the other hand, if perse has moved, perse would be scared to give that new address to the census, thus scared to respond.

Regardless of details, the bully will spread fear of the census among immigrants both authorized and not, to achieve their goal of undercounting immigrants and biasing the census.

Monkeys in Fukushima

Japanese macaques living in the Fukushima region exhibit blood abnormalities. The amount of abnormality in each monkey correlates with its level of radioactive cesium.

In addition, fetuses conceived after the nuclear accident have smaller brains than normal.

Particles in Fukushima

vendredi 17 mai 2019 à 02:00

Scientists have found microscopic particles of nuclear fuel scattered around the land in Fukushima.

Whether these pose a significant hazard to human health is a separate question. I don't know enough to deduce the answer. It would depend, among other things, on how numerous these particles are, and how often they get into human bodies. Perhaps also on precisely how they do so.

Whatever level of danger they pose, it will continue for a long time. Uranium 235's half life is 700 million years. Unless we find a way to sweep them up, people living on Earth will occasionally ingest or inhale them.
