No they aren't, for one and I wasn't just talking about uranium but the refining of it - these definitely favor Russian in a war of resources.

100%

Where are you getting that from?

I care. I care that we don't make a rash decision for a potential short term solution. Why not ramp up solar / wind and other alternatives?

Define "clean"

Oh, and Nuclear Power plants are just plopped down? Your comment wreaks of pie in the sky, uneducated bullshit.

Solar and Wind don't take nearly as much fuel, maintenance, zoning, upfront costs or be subject to international power plays like nuclear power.

But this is my argument against those who complain about Solar and Wind -- those won't kill you or destroy a location for hundreds of years if they break down and once they're installed they don't have to be fed by more mining, or anything else. Just wind and sun.

.....and how long does it take for a nuclear power plant to be zoned, and constructed? ...and where's the fuel coming from? It isn't thin air.

Why do I feel like the call for more nuclear power has just been another sneaky ass ploy by Russia to use resources as a source for power?

Edit: yup. Thanks for convincing me.

Nice try, Boss Man!

I think it was in a Jon Stewart interview about Trump that mentioned how surprisingly large he is when first meeting him. It kind of goes to explain how he can dominate a room - I worked the first season of the Apprentice as a driver, so I wasn't on set with him, but I've seen him on the street (with his bodyguards) and I believe he's 6'3" .. I don't believe he weighs anything under 270lbs though.

I love their reasoning is really the result of thousands of years of human cultivation and cross-breeding.

To be fair, I had ice cream with crickets all over them, and honestly it had a kind of woody / pukey aftertaste that I couldn't get through. I wondered if part of the problem is you can't de-vein the little things. Aren't you basically eating their shit?

I can de-vein a shrimp, and I only care for lobster tail.

Why would you highly doubt that?

....as opposed to what? A horse and cart? We're not all biking, running or taking a train to work. The fuck?!

....15% of everyone who gets covid gets long covid? I'd like a link to this.

No, it's just largely unnecessary. If you want to really protect people DON'T GO OUTSIDE YOUR HOUSE. Ever. Stay shut in, it's the only way to be sure.
