brown is such a good color and the best things in the world are brown !!!!!!! capybaras. trees. potatos. bagels. bears. coffee. chocolate. dirt etc !!!!!
Why is anyone surprised by this? The corporates and their cronies in the governments worship money and power. They don’t care about any negative consequences unless it happens to them.
this is surprising because literally nobody knew about this. somehow despite radioactivity being literally discovered in relation with oil wells it is just not ever public knowledge that oil production produces radioactive waste. OILFIELD WORKERS are not informed that they are handling radioactive waste. they are not given protection, they breathe that shit in they take it home to their families. genuinely for real nobody is talking about this.
everybody knows NUCLEAR power produces radioactive waste. in fact, oil companies have been making sure everybody knows this for years, in a concerted effort to make nuclear power seem too dangerous to be viable. everyone is terrified of radiation for good reason, and that’s partially the fault of oil companies.
if this became really, truly widespread knowledge – if u told everyone you know, if anti-fracking protests became about no radium on my land, we might actually get something done. you see what it says. oil companies literally cannot afford to treat their radioactive waste, and so they are indiscriminately making it everyone else’s problem. they are poisoning the fucking earth. the crops that get shipped all over america get poisoned with fucking radium. we just need to make them treat it. oil would be over. and we could stop the endless stream of the literal most dangerous shit on the planet.
if this single, solitary exemption could get repealed, things would actually genuinely change. don’t just shrug and be resigned about this. this is genuinely huge news. don’t forget. don’t get used to this one. oil companies are actively actively killing you and everyone near them at a scale and a speed much higher than co2. get fuckin mad about it. do something.
sorry 4 being angry but i’m thinking about how when covid shut down the american economy for 9 months, americans didn’t receive regular monetary aid from the government after most of them became financially stunted, we didn’t receive a temporary base livable wage payment, we didn’t receive a temporary base minimum wage payment, we didn’t receive further unemployment benefits, we didn’t receive breaks from having to pay rent, we didn’t receive breaks from being evicted on the basis of not having enough money, we didn’t receive universal healthcare, we didn’t receive universal healthcare for covid-related illnesses, we didn’t get any coverage for being in the middle of a pandemic. instead, we got absolute chump change that we had to fight tooth-and-nail over, and when we were just given the opportunity to get a slight bit more change, the people in charge said “nah here’s some pocket lint instead lol”. why would any person in america be proud to live here
My bf told me that I laugh almost every night in my sleep and I also slap him and deliver swift kicks regularly. Apparently I also put my fingers in his mouth but honey that’s all part of the package ❤️
