  Look into the Demon Core. Chunk of refined nuclear material that was perfectly fine to handle so long as it wasn’t bumped.

  But bump it even slightly, and the part that got bumped became dense enough to experience a minor amount of sustained fission and throw off a lethal enough dose of radiation. Several scientists died because of it.

  It didn’t involve me It’s not my fuckin business.

  And that is exactly how things should be.

  Unfortunately, ChristoFascists are inordinately obsessed about the “morality” of other people, and tend to demand that the government gets involvedved in regulating what goes on in those bedrooms.

  Just not their bedrooms.

  Agreed. There are only three modern/common communications channels which are truly synchronous:

  1. In-person communication
  2. Phone calls
  3. Video calls

  Everything else is asynchronous, and does not necessarily involve an interruption or a disruption of your time - you can get to it when you want to, within polite reason.

  And with the fragmentation of our attention due to social media - to say nothing about the broader nature of our modern culture - being able to handle communication asynchronously is becoming very important to people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what unbiased media sources do you use?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In Canada, the CBC has the least amount of bias of any domestic news source.

  Going International, I would say AP, PBS, NPR, Reuters, BBC.
