Nuclear weapons being used on nuclear plants, is one twist I never considered. Until 2 days ago.

That really is next level villainy.


Never considered the star was a nuclear weapon, nor the burning pit the remains of a power plant.

Clever but super evil. Would anyone really go there? I think they would.

Around 100 workers are sleeping on their desks as they work continuously to maintain safety at the site of the world's worst nuclear disaster. It is usually run by a day staff of around 500 people.

'They are facing a very difficult situation and are starving, exhausted and depressed,' a source close to the Chernobyl crisis told the Mail.

'With nowhere to sleep and no blankets, many are only sleeping for two to four hours on desks or wherever they can find a space.

'They are running out of food and are down to one meal of porridge a day. They are fed once every 24 hours, if there is enough they might get extra bread

Matilda Electa Joslyn Gage

Matilda Electa Joslyn Gage (March 24, 1826 – March 18, 1898) was an American Theosophist known for her activism in the areas of women's suffrage, Native American rights, and abolition of slavery. She was raised as a freethinker, and became a prolific author.


She was one of the three leaders in the nineteenth-century struggle for women’s rights and especially an effort to gain the voting franchise. She was a passionately devoted Theosophist, in character not unlike H. P. Blavatsky, especially in her scorn for organized religion, although her political activism was all her own.

Having rejected conventional faith and the churches that espouse it, Matilda discovered a kindred soul in H. P. Blavatsky and proceeded to share the discovery with her children and grandchildren.

Gage said her association to Theosophy had been the "crown blessing" of her life and introduced her daughter Maud and his husband L. Frank Baum (the author of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz) to the Theosophical Society.

[link to theosophy.wiki (secure)]
 Quoting: Seer777

Matilda was born on March 24, 1826 in Cicero, NY (near Syracuse) to Hezekiah and Helen Joslyn. Her father was a noted abolitionist who educated his daughter to be a “freethinker”. Their home in Fayetteville, NY was a station on the Underground Railroad that secretly conducted escaped slaves to safety in Canada. This work was dangerous and illegal under the terms of the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850, but the family continued its efforts for years.

Mrs. Gage was an active figure in the woman’s rights movement and other social causes throughout her life. She was coauthor, with Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony, of the three-volume History of Woman Suffrage, and was one of the prominent early members of the National Woman Suffrage Association

[link to theosophy.wiki (secure)]


This woman was a rockstar of the late 1800s for women's rights.

Why have I never heard of her?


They named the 'reason' after her.

Matilda effect

The Matilda effect is a bias against acknowledging the achievements of those women scientists whose work is attributed to their male colleagues.

This effect was first described by suffragist and abolitionist Matilda Joslyn Gage (1826–98) in her essay, "Woman as Inventor" (first published as a tract in 1870 and in the North American Review in 1883). The term "Matilda effect" was coined in 1993 by science historian Margaret W. Rossiter.

I immigrated to the US after being raised in USSR and Cuba, I remember my parents crying the first time we went in to a grocery store

 Quoting: Seer777





It's a great story. I post links to it at least a couple times a year. People should know that all it took was a frozen fudge bar, to completely alter his belief system..


In 1989, wanting to see how the American’s lived, Boris Yeltsin made an unscheduled visit to Randall’s supermarket in Houston. Between trying free samples of cheese and produce and staring at the meat selections, Yeltsin roamed the aisles of Randall’s nod
[link to imgur.com (secure)]

He was dazzled by the fact that grocery stores were everywhere, and that they even offered free samples. A year or so later, a biographer wrote that on the plane ride from Texas to Florida, Yelstin couldn’t get the vision of the endless food supply out of his mind, and lamented how different things were for his own countrymen. According to wikipedia, Leon Aron, quoting a Yeltsin associate, wrote in his biography, “Yeltsin, A Revolutionary Life” (St. Martin’s Press, 2000): “For a long time, on the plane to Miami, he sat motionless, his head in his hands. ‘What have they done to our poor people?’ he said after a long silence.” He added, “On his return to Moscow, Yeltsin would confess the pain he had felt after the Houston excursion: the ‘pain for all of us, for our country so rich, so talented and so exhausted by incessant experiments.’”

He wrote that Mr. Yeltsin added, “I think we have committed a crime against our people by making their standard of living so incomparably lower than that of the Americans.”

And then, in his own autobiography, Yeltsin wrote about the experience at the grocery store himself, which reshaped his entire view on communism, ultimately leading to his leaving the Communist party.

“When I saw those shelves crammed with hundreds, thousands of cans, cartons and goods of every possible sort, for the first time I felt quite frankly sick with despair for the Soviet people,” Yeltsin wrote. “That such a potentially super-rich country as ours has been brought to a state of such poverty! It is terrible to think of it
