How many people live in the Chernobyl exclusion zone? Svetlana Alexievich interviewed some of “The Zone’s” residents in her excellent book Voices From Chernobyl. It’s not a fun place to live, unless having all your teeth fall out is fun.

Nowhere in Europe is a fun place to live any more thanks to what we are still using in place of nuclear power. Summers are brutal, winters are brutally expensive, oh, and we funded a genocide in our own borders, and probably a few more in the Middle East. Because, as it turns out, winter is fucking defined as "that point in time when there's not much solar going around at these latitudes, and sometimes it's not windy either".

So yes, I'm fucking bitter about that, and about people like you.

Do you mean that Chornobyl resident don't get enough vitamin C? Because I can't think of a link between exposure to radio-elements and losing your teeth…
