Japan PM eats fish from Fukushima nuclear plant waters
A row developed over the controversial decision to discharge treated radioactive wastewater into the sea.

"Radioactive" doesn't really mean shit without a dosage. It's a scary word and all, but pretty much everything is radioactive to some extent. You can literally measure it using bananas.
So, how much radioactive water are we talking about? How radioactive is that water? At what rate is it being released into the ocean? How much radiation can the local plants and critters tolerate before it becomes a health risk for them?
And the most important question: is sushi about to become affordable??
In the past ten years, South Korea has already released five times as much tritium in the Sea of Japan than Fukushima will release.
Nobody stopped eating sushi.
But this time it's scary because Fukushima is scary.
Which is all thanks to the fossil fuels industry.
BRB, going to South Korea for luminance engine fuel.
I dunno, man. I can get sushi for the same price as a big Mac meal now. Not because it's gotten cheap, though. It's because Big Macs meals are like $15 for some reason.
Because they learned they can price gouge ever increasing amounts and people keep paying it
whole this probably did slightly raise the localised radioactivity of the area the water was released into, I suspect not as much as, say, dropping a banana into the ocean would have.
Hang on... Wasn't this an episode of The Simpsons?
Yeah but this is actually safe. I'm being serious. This isn't sarcasm.
Honestly. They predict more events than idiocracy

Given the dumb shit that happens in this, the most ridiculous time line, I would lay money on aliens invading, and Fumio Kishida manifesting super powers to defend Japan. It's in the same ballpark as Trump jumping bail and Dog the Bounty Hunter bringing him, but, you know you can't completely rule it out.
am I gonna get ten years of conspiracies like Obama faking drinking water
Oh boy do I hope he doesn't die of a mysterious hart attack now. I'm both curious and worried about what would happen
I get that it's safe but we could use fear mongering for good and possibly cut back on overfishing. Just saying...
Pretty hilarious to see people convince themselves that supporting nuclear energy is somehow counter-cultural and anti-establishment, or even anti-capitalist.
