6LilacMimeLions
my favorite elephant's foot trivia is that they stuck an ak around the corner and shot at it
6LilacMimeLions
it knocked chips off
6LilacMimeLions
you've got a giant super-radioactive lump of metal sludge
6LilacMimeLions
what do you do
6LilacMimeLions
"fire a semi-automatic rifle at it"
ยฟ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐?
holy shit
ยฟ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐?
that seems like something people would do
๐๐๐ ๐๐๐, ๐๐๐๐๐ข!
the miniseries was great TV but filled me with such inconsolable dread
๐๐๐ ๐๐๐, ๐๐๐๐๐ข!
theres a really good doc about them putting the protective shell around the building and how much of a feat of engineering it was
ยฟ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐?
i wanted to see the mini series but i didnt have hbo and i dont think i could handle it right now
๐๐๐ ๐๐๐, ๐๐๐๐๐ข!
YEAH IT'S... A Lot
๐๐๐ ๐๐๐, ๐๐๐๐๐ข!
and in the context of everything else it's kind of a downer
ยฟ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐?
i might have to check and see if i can find that documentary tho
antler queen

I mean, my way of coping with the pandemic at first was definitely reading a long story about a plague but I'm past that point now
