The photo above is the closest humanity has ever come to creating Medusa. If you were to look at this, you would die instantly.
The image is of a reactor core lava formation in the basement of the Chernobyl nuclear plant. It’s called the Elephant’s Foot and weighs hundreds of tons, but is only a couple meters across.
Oh, and regarding the Medusa thing, this picture was taken through a mirror around the corner of the hallway. Because the wheeled camera they sent up to take pictures of it was destroyed by the radiation. The Elephant’s Foot is almost as if it is a living creature.
Friendly reminder that this blob of core material was so hot and dense, it melted/burned through three floors of the building before coming to rest in the lowest basement.
And there’s now a unique species of black mold that feeds off the gamma radiation it produces.
Is no one else seriously freaked out by that mold? No? Just me, then?
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwhy was someone shooting it with a kalashnikov
I can sleep again knowing that The Elephant’s foot is weak to Kalashnikovs
I love that mold because humans made a mess we have no idea how to clean up and barely five years later we discover an entirely new kind of fungus that’s just… eating it. Radiation levels are going down much faster than any of our models could predict, this stuff hasn’t been found anyplace else in the world…
Elephant’s Foot: *releases horrifying levels of radiation fatal to most life*
Big pharma doesn’t want you to know, but insulin is more accessible to many people than they think. Anyways, eat the rich.
DON’T DO THAT BC THAT’S A DIFFERENT BRAND THAN YOU USUALLY GET, AND THEREFORE A DIFFERENT DOSAGE THAN WHAT YOU’RE USED TO.
if you take the same dose of a different brand of insulin, like the guy in the story did, there’s a good chance you will either critically overdose or critically underdose and either way you’ll be in trouble.
DO NOT!!!!! attempt to put “walmart insulin” into an insulin pump or pen. If you must use it, TALK TO THE PHARMACIST ON THE FLOOR and CALL YOUR ENDOCRINOLOGIST(or educator) for information on how to dose this. Do not consult the internet. The only place online I recommend consulting is type 1 support groups–there’s a chance someone with insulin paid for by insurance can spare a vial. Also TALK TO YOUR ENDO!!!!! They carry fridges FULL of samples of novolog/humalog. Trust me. The drug reps give them free vials like candy. My endo always makes sure if someone’s low on supply, she sends them home with at least two vials. Explain your situation. They get it. AND call your general physician. Chances are good they have vials in their fridges as well. These two types of insulin are wildly different and WILL cause harm. Keep an eye on your insulin stock and try not to get to this point; your doctors (despite what you may think of them) WILL try to help you in ways they can. Always ask for samples. Be safe, t1ds.
This man specifically died after taking cheaper insulin and people reblog it telling others to do the same.
I get that being frozen for 100 years is a tough thing to go through but honestly Aang should have used it for comedy more
Katara: wow so this is Omashu
Aang: back in my day it was called weed city
Sokka: I’m… pretty sure it wasn’t
Aang: that’s what the fire nation wants you to think
Bumi, the second they arrive: welcome to weed city
Sokka: what the fuck
Imagine them getting stuck in Ba Sing Se and Aang just being like, “I wonder if the sandal pit is still here.”
And everyone’s like, “The what?”
And he’s all, “The sandal pit. It’s where I buried all the sandals of people who were mean to me and my friends.”
Cut to the gaang walking around town, and Aang’s muttering about it being around here somewhere, when suddenly Toph stops and says, “There’s a big pile of sandals about fifty feet below that cobbler’s house,” and Sokka loses his mind.
This raises the question of whether Aang is telling the truth or if Toph and Bumi just happen to have the same sense of humor as him.
May I offer a third option into the mix:
It’s just sheer coincidence but it sends Aang hog fuckin’ wild
in the fire nation:
aang: i wonder if they still have the national fire burping competition?
sokka: okay now that’s definitely fake
after the war
zuko: you guys can’t go home you’ll miss the national fire burping competition!
sokka: you’re lying, you’re definitely lying
iroh: i won seven years in a row, until those cowards banned me
