Photos from Byron Nuclear Plant.

Not my photos. They are all (c) Victoria Lunacek.

The Turbine Hall

This is where the steam generated by the reactors is used to produce power for the grid.

The Control Room

(honestly, the control rooms all look very similar. Ceiling tiles and floor/carpet are sometimes the only way to tell a site from a photo.)

At Byron, there is an average of six Reactor Operators in the control room at any given time. Three per reactor.

Venom 3 spoiler warning but like

"Ride me cowboy", "we've been together for a year?", "Sometimes I think we would've been happier you and I living a life like this", them calling each other Thelma and Louise? Them talking about future plans and the camera directly cutting and staying on literal happy newlyweds?? "BUT I NEED HIM BACK" ???? A montage of their time together???? Hello ??? Symbrock nation can you hear me !!!!

Amatonormativity has destroyed so many people's understanding and acceptance of themselves, and it's heartbreaking.

Yes, it is normal to be in your 20s, 30s, or older and not have lost your virginity, had a first kiss, or a partner. It is normal to say that you aren't ready for those things, too! It is normal if your life doesn't follow the "college graduate -> engagement -> buying a home -> 2.5 kids and a dog" trajectory that so many people have idealized.

So many people associate maturity with losing your virginity, or having a first kiss, or a serious relationship, and I think that's a dangerous association. Maturity isn't gained through those things, and you don't have to have those experiences to be considered "mature" or "grown." It is not a bad thing to go at your pace. Nobody else can live your life but you. If you end up having those experiences, that's great! But it should be done because you want to experience them, not because you feel "broken" and "immature" without them.

I have to get it out. It's been like 9 months since my binge rewatch of Neon Genesis Evangelion. I'm not going to say that transitioning would've 100% saved Shinji, but it would kill Gendo instantly. Just, the thought of that dense motherfucker being confronted by the fact that his own son, testament to all of his imperfections, would suddenly start to resemble his wife-- which he cannot handle outside of Rei-- would make him tweak into oblivion and I think that's very funny. just. *Enter stage left, Shinji being forced through the doors of Gendo's office by Asuka and maybe Misato* Shinji: Father, I- Asuka: Just say it! Shinji: Father, I'm a girl.. I'd like to start hrt immediately. Gendo:

Look, I'm a hopeless Gelphie stan to the day I die, but if anything makes me believe Gliyeraba is legit, it's the fact Elphaba's parents were literally a throuple the whole time she was growing up.

Ok so since basically everyone in the redacted fandom and Erik himself has a SPOUSE I will be the one to speak for the bitchless redacted fans:

ME. WHEN.

To be clear I dislike the concept of marriage and I'm the type of -romantic (idk atp) that would never have the official label of "relationship" but I would like one NONETHELESS.
