The former, unless those disasters also included neutron radiation (admittedly I don’t know much about either disaster)
Radioactive contamination: things don’t transfer the property of radioactivity to everything they touch and/or irradiate. If that were the case, the entire Earth universe would have become radioactive gray goo long, long ago.
When radiation workers talk about “contamination,” we mean radioactive compounds have physically transferred from one object onto/into another. For example, tools becoming contaminated with radioactive metal dust from equipment they touch, or clothing absorbing radioactive iodine gas from the air.
There is a form of radiation called neutron radiation that does make some formerly stable things (mainly metals) radioactive. This isn’t something you’re likely to encounter unless you’re a specific type of radiation worker, however.
This is mainly gear-grindy to me because the reason we don’t have gamma-sterilized produce in the US is completely unfounded fear that gamma irradiation “contaminates” everything it touches. So we could be having lovely fresh strawberries and peppers that last weeks longer than they usually do, but no, we can’t because rAdIaTiOn ScArY 🙄
as someone who regularly brings a literal suitcase of bagels back from NYC to my uncivilized home state, I know the exact feeling you mean
(protip to be un-fire-able: bribe coworkers with new york bagels)
I hope you have some better days soon. You deserve good days <3
:(
no way for you to be prescribed an emergency supply and get self injection training?
honestly just modern medicine and indoor plumbing/water treatment
the amount of not dying from random infections we do these days, no wonder there are so many humans
didn’t realize there was a system adaptation based on it. very cool!

spot check with 2 squares of tp, when clean use single-use mini towels (I bought a pack of 100% cotton terry cloth squares similar to those used in auto shops)
the butt/coochie towels go in their own hamper and get laundered separately with the hottest wash setting
i live alone though. if i ever manage to convince a woman to marry me i imagine modifications may be requested…
Mother I feel like changed the way I view storytelling and RPG game design, like I use it as a mental benchmark for story-driven and/or turn based RPGs
Like I don’t think I would have appreciated OFF or Omori the same way without having played Mother games as a teen
there’s not really a way to know for sure but I imagine the price would actually come down somewhat due to removal of red tape and paperwork associated with drug control
possibly also from increased competition if that made it easier for a drug manufacturer to begin producing previously controlled drugs
for example amphetamine salt production is capped by the US DEA. if that cap were removed the supply would increase and the price might very well decrease
sadly this is largely useless speculation
Most drugs should be over-the-counter. The especially dangerous or addictive ones maybe just require counselling with a pharmacist first. But I’m more concerned about people not able to access the medication they need than I am about idiots removing themselves from the gene pool by OD.
People in my dumbass country would rather 10 people with a genuine medical need suffer as long as 1 addict can’t get a fix, and it’s so many layers of bullshit.
hi i just moved today it sucks and you’ll probably do a lot of things last minute but YOU GOT THIS HOMIE
Oh my god, Karen, you can’t just ask people why they’re a bottom!
It was one of the first PC games I played as a kid. Incredibly simple mechanics: you are a marble and you roll and try to reach the finish line (sometimes you need collectibles first). But the level design was top notch. Perfect blend of challenging and rewarding.
pure wonderful button-mashy fun with just a hint of strategy. I always look for it when I visit retro arcades

How Is This Mentally Ill Single Millenial Holding Down Two Jobs and Crunching Through Debt Payments? The Answer Will Shock Most Americans!
(the answer is I am a lucky bitch whose main employer fucks up just about everything except they provide premium health insurance I can afford to pay for and pay copays for, and this has been drastically improving my life)
When unloading the dishwasher’s silverware rack, just take the whole thing out and unceremoniously dump it out onto a towel on the counter. Makes a ruckus but beats taking flatware out one by one while bent over the dishwasher.
Also, pick up all of the same size fork or spoon, then hold them loosely while shaking your hands and they’ll naturally align into their proper nested position. Actually lots of identically shaped things will do this when gently shaken. I used to align nerf darts vertically in a bucket like this as a kid
