That does have most of the same words, so I could see why a search engine thought it was relevant...

But did you read it? Even just the part you quoted?

Like, that's talking about cold war plutonium...

That's not what used military reactor fuel is...

[-] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

We do...

The US military sells our "spent" fuel to France who refines it and uses it.

Why do people always want to learn about nuclear energy from YouTube videos made by teenagers with no clue how nuclear power works?

More that they couldn't say this when Biden wasnt making any sense either.

Now that the Dem candidate can string two sentences together and remember what the first sentence was, it's safer to be realistic about trump.

It was always these easy, Biden just was holding us back.

Someday OP....

Someday you'll learn that some words have different meanings in different contexts...

Clover is better, it grows along the ground instead of straight up like grass So does a couple other kinds of broadleafs that will show up.

With grass if they dig in hard in one place it can kill the grass and then it's bare, and likely going to stay that way for a while if you mow often. With clover the nearby strands just grow in to the empty space.

Like, if you got some huge dogs in a small yard that pace, it probably won't matter. But just letting them run around in an open area you'll be fine.

There will be bunnies back there tho. Even if you have a good fence, they'll break in for the clover.

I mean, don't remove it...

Just start using that stuff for bare spots. Plants spread on their own bro, you just got to establish a population first. Maybe it'll cross pollinate and you'll get some crazy new bluegrass that's hardy.

Or it just gets replaced.

Let nature do it's thing.

Good first step is just seeding clover where grass is struggling.

Clover isn't a normal part of lawns anymore because broadleaf herbicide kills clover too. But there is zero reason to use herbicide on a fucking lawn anyways.

But you barely need to mow clover if it's dominant in an area. It "learns" the height you mow at, and just stops growing taller than that.

Like a 1/4 of my backyard only gets mowed once or twice a season, and it looks green as fuck because it's denser. That ground covers helps retain moisture in the ground, feeds bees and bunnies, and with all the bunnies, I even get foxes.

Plus clover produces nitrogen, so it naturally spreads to the poor soil and improves it because it can out compete grass and even weeds. Insisting on an "all grass, only grass" lawn is some boomer shit.

It’s like he’s out of touch with reality.

He's an aging second generation Kennedy who had a brain worm...

They don't remove those btw, they're usually killed via medications but the worm is in an organ, you can't remove it. Like if a dog has heart worms and gets treated, their health will get worse because their body has to deal with dead worms, and then even after the remains decay, there's holes.

Like, dude probably already put his brain thru enough without a decaying worm, but it shouldn't be surprising he acts illogical like he has a serious mental problem, because he has a serious mental problem. Absolute best case scenario is by now the worm is gone and he "just" has a big hole in his brain that will never heal.

I saw Mark Cuban on Daily Show a while ago, and apparently the whole thing with him lowering healthcare prices, is just that his healthcare company releases price information.

If a company wants their business, they have to make the contract public.

That sets a price point in an industry where no one knows what something costs.

And competitors then try to beat that price point.

I forget the example, but a medication went from 30k a month to like $100/month. Just because Cuban's company disclosed that's how little they could buy it for, and likely how much the 30k/month sellers were buying for.

I don't know how anyone thinks capitalism should be in healthcare, except the people running healthcare companies, obviously we know why they want it

Considering how soon after WWII it became British and Israeli policy to displace less-favored persons with more-favored colonists, Europe and the US seems to have learned nothing at all from the affair.

....

The Nazis were very open about who inspired them.

It was America's treatment of the mentally ill, the genocide of Natives, race based slavery, and just overall LGBTQ treatment.

It wasn't a secret at the time, but it's rarely taught these days.

American and the allies didn't fight because of what Germany was doing to people, it was because they were invading other countries with no signs of stopping.

Hell, the guy that essentially won the war for the allies was chemically castrated for being gay by England,after the war was over and he was a global hero

If you think WW2 was about human rights, you've been misinformed

The weird part is everyone forgetting in a week or two...

The media is on the side of the wealthy, because that's the whole reason they bought the media in the first place.

This isn't the first time, been happening since newspapers were cutting edge. It's the natural result of deregulating journalism. So ething both parties do at almost every opportunity.

All the shit going on now with the media can be traced back to Slick Willy in the 90s.

Remember when people acted like Disney was great because they were fighting DeSantis on shit?

Billion dollar corporations aren't on our side even if they occasionally do things we like. Sometimes it's just two assholes and no one is the good guy.
