“End Nuclear Insanity Before Nuclear Insanity Ends Humanity.”

LLAW’s NUCLEAR ISSUES & COMMENTS, Thursday, (04/25/2024)
The major news for today is about Russia vetoing the UN resolution to prevent use of nuclear arms in outer space. My response is, have we not already caused enough damage to our worldly environment that nuclear weapons in outer space is beyond the concept of intelligent humanity, and perhaps the meaning of the word “humanity” itself? Of course ‘all things nuclear’ should be considered ‘inhumane’.
Here are two links from today’s nuclear news:

But, hence my Post cover image this evening, my personal favorite from today’s news is more on the satirical or light side about the creatures that might live alongside us if a few of us were to somehow survive a nuclear war . . .

Next, anyone who cares should be advised that I am moving my bi-weekly chapter post of my in progress of drafting my new novel “El Nuclear Diablo” to Sunday evenings rather than the current schedule of Thursday. As I pointed out last night, one of the reasons is that Sundays nuclear news is generally less reading and evaluating for me, which makes Posting of this blog somewhat less time-consuming for me personally, and possibly for you, the reader who may also be in a more relaxed mood to read a bit of fiction on a Sunday rather than my story being posted in between two workdays.
So you can expect to see the next chapter of the draft version of “El Nuclear Diablo” this coming Sunday evening. The Post will remain on a bi-weekly basis. My hope is that the ‘story’ will help you understand and gain more beneficial knowledge about what ‘could happen, and how it happened’ in an actual post-nuclear world than what everyday nuclear news stories have to offer. ~llaw
