Nobel Peace Prize? Motherfucker just bombed Iran. Pick a lane you lunatic.

So there’s a strange epilogue to that story. The dress was worn to a wedding by the mother of the bride. A few years ago, the groom was charged with attempted murder of his wife.

Lemmy.world is the largest instance, for what it’s worth.

“Thank you for your answer to my first question. Could you please also address questions 2 and 3?”

At least by numbering the questions you make it easier to re-ask them.

Definitely an accurate prediction for Collins - she already called in sick so she didn’t have to attend the hearings.

Candyland.

You need to have a clearance to communicate classified information. Asking her a question about something classified would likely reveal information that can’t be transmitted to an uncleared person. As an uncleared person, she can’t say anything classified even to someone who has a current clearance.

At last someone has answered the call for new, young leaders with fresh ideas.

You need a particular kind of nuclear reactor to create the enriched uranium

*plutonium. Enriched uranium comes from taking natural uranium and enriching the content of a specific isotope (235U), typically with centrifuges, gaseous diffusion and/or magnetic separation in a synchrotron. The enriched uranium can be used in a weapon, or it can be used as fuel for a nuclear reactor to make 239Pu from 238U.

“Masked man with a gun ordering the teller to put the money in the bag faces criticism for risking a bank robbery.”

Hey, he had a degree in “meats” from Texas A&M. That’s basically an alternative prerequisite for nuclear stockpile maintenance.

Supposedly when he was picked for energy secretary he thought the position would be “symbolic coal baron”. He eventually found out about the nukes part, and to his credit he apparently realized the significance.

I certainly can’t think of a more relevant background than “gas executive who goes on Fox News a lot” for leading the organization responsible for the nations nuclear arsenal.

She also had a knack for capturing their speaking pattern in her transcribed replies.

Same here, which is why my Bluesky feed is much better. Everyone wants to be where everyone else is (that isn’t X), and it seems like that’s Bluesky.
