I’m going to have to re-read Project Hail Mary cause I’ve seen it recommended so many times, but I personally didn’t love it. I’m big Andy Wier fan - and absolutely loved The Martian.
With PHM, it felt like there were too many situations/problems that were created and then easily solved by the narrator. Each problem was a little too outlandish to then have a convenient solution right away.
What’s wrong with his horse? I’m no Reagan-stan but we don’t need to be taking shots at his horse!
/s for those need it
Okay capitalists

Republicans typically have SS at least - tbd on third S
No. The original comment said the “worst disaster made a very small she’s of the planet uninhabitable”. Keep in mind this disaster was the result of Soviet incompetence and completely avoidable with standards implemented in the US.
They’re saying our “worst case scenario” using nuclear power is better than worst case scenario continuing to use fossil fuels.
Likelihood of worse case scenario using nuclear power is also extremely low. Whereas worst case scenario (billions of people dying) for continuing to use fossil fuels is EXTREMELY HIGH.
By your logic I suggest you avoid any building constructed in the US as nothing would ever be safe enough.
That’s why there are lots of regulations for things impacting life safety. With a nuclear power plant, you mitigate the disaster potential by having so many more people involved in the design and inspection processes.
The risk of an electrician installing faulty wiring in your home could be mitigated by having a third party inspector review the work. Now do that 1000x over and your risk of “politicians are paid off” is negligible.
Kansas. Drop the “Ark”. The police are bad like the rest of the country but at least there’s not as much cousin-marriage.
Another Memmy user here - if you’re a fan of Apollo Memmy is the perfect substitute!
I agree with the sentiment, but from a legal standpoint individuals who are subpoenaed don’t get to set the terms. The GOP is is hypocritical as shit and it’s ridiculous they’re doing this sham investigation to begin with AND they should have accepted Hunters counter to testify publicly. But, a subpoena is still a subpoena.
