IAEA is the international body responsible for standardizations on nuclear energy.

Four years is not a long span of time in the context of nuclear energy, where technological developments take the scale of decades.

This press release pertains to the newly announced western strategy for nuclear, low-carbon energy. That strategy is still current.

By working to ensure that everyone can benefit from nuclear science, the IAEA underpins rights enshrined in the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in 1976. These include the right to benefit from scientific progress; the right to an adequate standard of living and the right to the highest-attainable standard of health.

The Agency does this by using nuclear science to combat zoonotic diseases; bolster food safety; protect fruits from pests; strengthen water management; treat cancer; and of course, to help countries mitigate climate change.

Ah, well, I’m for any or all of the above, at this point. My preference is the peaceful dismantling of colonial nation-states, a la USSR or Brexit

True social justice would be to send everyone packing, then?

So, given that global society has advanced 150 years or so, what lessons can we take away from Brexit, USSR, Chechoslovakia, etc. on how to safely split a country or governmental organization?

Fair point. I wonder what would have happened if they’d have amended the constitution so that states could actually secede, instead of having a war. I guess eventually international war instead of civil war?

Although, technically, even pork is allowed when the alternative is death by starvation.

Whether one would rather die than eat Graham Cracker is another thing.

I don’t follow the popular news, is he known as a drinker?

yeah, my one white vote in a sea of red and blue is really going to matter, no thanks. give me a real choice, you’ll get a real vote

Great, now ChatGPT thinks he’s smart.

And we’d probably have actual human rights laws in America, instead of means-tested, drug-tested government aid.

Democrats better get busy filling those Supreme Court seats, now, if we are going to have any chance at stopping Donald Trump, Jr. from taking over in 2040.

indeed, the bunker has been upgraded to a SpaceX satellite mesh hotel.

Cannabalism is against Islam, otherwise I’d say that at least they’d finally get some food in Gaza.

Better screen for sociopaths too.

FJB? FLG!

I know exactly how you feel, friend. Happy to help :)

The regret and heartache is reasonable to feel for a little while - for individuals like him, they often need to do work on themselves on the scale of decades, not months or years. It would be a major lifestyle choice to be the committed, supportive partner/caretaker to someone like that. And it takes major emotional labor and can potentially be dangerous. Scars highly likely.

Feel good about doing what you can to help the person along in their journey while maintaining your own healthy boundaries.

And remember to be compassionate to yourself.

Watch out for the charmers that do the equivalent of love bombing but with charm. Once they have charmed your pants off, the charm stops and the harm starts. That early charm can be a classic abuser trait.

Not all that glitters is gold, and not all that excites is good.

Ask yourself this: would you be willing to lose everything to fall for this man? If not, back away from him and keep your eyes on your goals.
