i have a backyard pile of cardboard boxes, tree branches, pulled up weeds covered with an agricultural tarp. every few months after the high natural pH of the local biome it all melts and become inhabited by worms and bugs, then i use it to make a new fun mound to my yard cosplaying as an iron age hill fort.
better than paying to give it to the waste management who do the same thing and then sell it to the city.
edit: two feet by seven feet big. away from the house near a green space.
Last time this was posted I went down a rabbit hole of reading about the Nuclear Boy Scout David Hahn
Bonus: the photo was taken with a film camera and the graininess is from all the radiation.
Digital camera also get funky with radiation: GoPro Ride Through an Electron Beam Irradiator at Full Beam Power / @andrewseltzman9280/ youtube.com
why the dogfuck did they not illuminate the hallway the camera goes through
Aside from the film grain, I’m pretty impressed that the camera seemed to survive that and that the footage from it could be extracted like nothing of this nature had ever happened to the device.
Does non beta-radiation have the same effect? (Especially gamma rays which don’t even have an electric charge)
Hey guys I found the next superfund site!
Relax guys, it’s just the new Mt Dew flavor, Radical Radium.
