Can you describe where you found your local groups? And particularly helpful web searches you can share? Searching for <location> lefty groups does actually give results but I welcome any suggestions

Taking dating advice from a divorce attorney seems like taking swimming lessons from a shark. Maybe he has good points but I can't help but wonder about his intentions...

Pretty much, but highly dependent on the energy of the ionizing radiation. Lower would come out as a dull grain, higher would show up as bright spots. Neither would look like this post though lol

I think it's going to get worse after he passes, because right now he has an active presence with its own will that his henchmen sort of have to listen to. After he goes, everyone around him is going to start doing some heinous shit "in his memory" or "because he would have wanted it".

What specifically are you disagreeing with? Bad games are bad largely due to design and monetization reasons, both of which developers don't participate in deciding. But, they do witness all of the good decisions that get cut from the design. Buggy games are one thing you can partially attribute to developers, but saying Bethesda devs have a net negative credential without explaining is willfully obtuse and borderline troll behavior.

Refusing to discuss nuance is the problem

Read that as United Atlantic Vultures and did a double-take. Not so far off though.

It's not as uncommon as you might expect -- here is a list for the curious. And I don't mean to denegrate nuclear energy as a power source; it is vastly better than fossil fuels and safe when done correctly -- I have participated in the safe generation of nuclear power. But the ramifications of it being done incorrectly are severe to say the least, and everyone should be aware that we do commonly have issues with it, especially in aging facilities. We commonly extend plants decades beyond what their initial construction planned for.

Edited to say I just realized you said meltdowns, not radioactive leaks, which I do agree with. Sorry for confusion

This isn't true -- radioactive gases were leaked into the surrounding area. The containment vessel remained intact, and NRC concluded that no measurable harm was done, but there was definitely a release and that's why it was such a big deal. They evacuated children and pregnant women from the area in response.
