Phrases

beyond imagination = something unexpected or thought impossible.

It's the end of the world! (expletive optional) = dramatic lamentation for when anything wrong happens to you, no matter how trivial.

I've been through the apocalypse, I can do this. = a phrase of encouragement.

justice is blind = the law should consider everyone equal (the usual meaning) or that Justice - be it a personification, or law enforcement - is blind to the injustices of the world (ironic meaning)

leave little to the imagination = clothing that don't cover the body, something that is super obvious, or a scene that is horribly graphic.

mind's eye/ear = mental image or sound.

ray cat in a radioactive zone = referring to the proposed concept of the "ray cat", a genetically engineered cat that could change color to radiation exposure. It could be used to mean "canary in the coal mine". A canary brought by miners to a cave will die when exposed to carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that could be deadly to the human miners. Thus, the canary serves as a warning for environmental (literally) or societal (metaphorically) dangers.

This is not a place of honor. = to say somewhere should be avoided, this references the warning on Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) nuclear waste storage facilities. You could even reference other lines from this warning (under the cut).

We should remember the presumption of innocence. = A reminder to not be hasty when judging people, give them the benefit of the doubt.

ZNPP: Zaporizhzhya (Запоріжжя) Nuclear Power Plant, currently occupied by Russian forces

IAEA: International Atomic Energy Agency

Last week the chief of Ukraine’s military intelligence directorate, Kyrylo Budanov, claimed that Russia approved a plan to blow up the nuclear power plant and had mined four out of six power units and a cooling pond. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy spoke of a planned “terrorist attack”. On June 30th IAEA experts were able to conduct a search of part of the plant’s cooling system and reported no visible indications of newly planted mines or other explosives. It is of note that the experts still need further access to inspect other parts of the site and it is therefore not entirely sure whether every placement of mines is currently known. The IAEA already previously reported mines planted outside of ZNPP’s perimeter and also on particular places inside. 

It was also reported that Russian staff and military gave been reducing their presence at the power plant over the last days. Russia had assured the United Nations council this week there were no plans to blow up the power plant. It is not known how trustworthy those assurances are as Russia had also assured it would not invade the Ukraine.

The whole idea of "You can live through this!" is just stupid

Not only is it stupid, it gives me MORE anxiety cuz i don't wanna see what the world's like after the blast

But whenever I feel worried about that sort of thing, I always remember something my mum told me when North Korea was starting to scare America. I was terrified of nuclear war. I had only ever seen the Fallout games and maybe heard about Hiroshima a few times. So my idea of what a real atomic bombing would look like was totally incorrect. I cried to my mum about it for a while, and then she told me this:

"If a nuclear bomb went off here, you wouldn't even notice it. You would die without feeling a thing."
