I mean, radioactive isotopes are formed in supernovae, so it's really just solar power from a different sun, right?

Can we not celebrate the people who have made sacrifices for their country and for ideals like freedom, and support those people because they have inadequate support from the government who ordered their sacrifices, while also decrying the actions and behaviours which we see as morally wrong?

Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID). It will reduce inflammation and the associated pain. If your pain is not caused by inflammation then you should talk to a pharmacist about what the best analgesic is for you.

Is it over-use of Photoshop or really bad HDR?

Flooding leaves horrible mud in its wake. It's full of sewage, vehicle fluids, and heaps of nutrient for bacteria, leading to a terrible smell.

Really we should be asking (I want to know) why FEMA invented their own USAR standards instead of adopting the INSARAG ones? Why the US have put so much more money into USAR and not flood and storm response? Surely after Harvey and Katrina, not to mention tornadoes, you've learned that having something like Australia's SESs would provide you with surge capacity of people skilled in storm damage mitigation and flood rescue? I really would like to know

People getting brake and break mixed up annoys me, but I get it. If this is you, your car has brakes and you take a break from work after breaking your arm.

Mitch Hedberg jokes while high is a pretty smart move. Either that or you're the only person who finds them funny and end up looking like an idiot.

1 in 1000 year events are poorly named. One because it describes a likelihood, so this storm had a 0.1% chance of occurring in any given year, so we'd expect to see a storm like this once every thousand years on average. It's not cyclical. Two, the likelihood of these storms is steadily increasing and so it's probably no longer a 1 in 1000 year event.
