i literally have no other place to talk about this so i came back just to chernobylpost a little

some of the radiation that went to the east also moved to the south a wee bit, which fucked the already polluted donetsk region. nowhere near as bad as belarus, but still. it didn't leave that huge of an impact in the long run but a lot of my relatives didn't live to see me b/c of a short-term mass spike of cancer after the incident.

it's also crazy to think that in total nearly a million of ukrainians (in total) participated in the liquidation efforts in the following years.
it's a big tragedy, esp. for my people, and very few westerners were aware the sheer scale of it (until now, i guess). i'm really glad hbo treated the topic with the respect and horror it deserves.

I certainly didn't know it was almost absolute devastation until I watched this series. I obviously knew the initial damage was horrific but I had no clue they were literally two days or so away from millions dying at one point.

slavoj zizek awlays uses history as an excuse for his pessimistic outlook towards the future of humanity, but chernobyl one of the many examples of us pulling it together in the most fucked circumstances imaginable. liquidator gang.

I really felt bad for Scherbina when he was told that they'll be dead in 5 years, he had a pretty good mood when he entered the room, then got trainwrecked by Legasov with shock and fear
