Bathe in the light of Atom.

A fellow Child of the Atom?

i will cover myself in dirt to show how I am in touch with nature and my true self. No dirt on my face, though.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 37 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Don’t forget to show a good amount of thigh!

[–] hydroptic@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

That's a "good amount of thigh"?

Good thing her ankles aren't showing in the picture too, that'd be scandalous

[–] lud@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago

There is dirt on her face though.

Where is logo from? Can I use it? This is one of the coolest things ever.

[–] dangrousperson@feddit.org 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's a religious faction of the Fallout Universe, who believe that radiation is devine

Ohh... Thank you

[–] muntedcrocodile@lemm.ee 38 points 1 month ago (1 children)

She's spent too much time in the coal mines.

Isashi Ouchi just slowly melted alive in a hospital bed for attention.

(Warning: if you don't know, it is a very sad google search)

This is something I show students in physics class because they're just morbid at high school age and I'm pretty morbid myself.

But no, I do black it out on the slideshow and give the antsy a chance to vacate the classroom.

bump (for a friend)

[–] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

Several reverse image searches and searches of the text have yielded little to nothing useful. Just looks like a meme someone threw together as a joke.

[–] paddirn@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Fact: In the beginning, God said, "Let there be light."

Fact: Light is electromagnetic radiation

Therefore, radiation is a God's Will and we should bathe in it daily.

Q: What did Marie Curie say to Albert Einstein?

A: At speeds approaching c, I still have one more Nobel prize than you

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago (2 children)

you gotta love the conditional "pure of spirit". Not pure of spirit? Oops sorry then you melt.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Obviously you're only pure of spirit if you don't fake your radiation sickness, but if you do, you're not...

Really gives a whole new meaning to the term "Fake it till you make it."

[–] CaveJohnson@futurology.today 0 points 1 month ago

Cave Johnson here. I had a couple of the boys in the lab distill a few volunteers into a pure spirit one time. In a blind taste test, our visionless visionaries described it as having a "hint of cherry, sensations of memories long forgotten, and an impending feeling of eternal damnation and suffering." Quite the jokers they were. A real shame that they spontaneously combusted and melted into a viscous goo shortly after.

Me when I don’t get my daily dose of radiation

Image descriptionA screenshot of the game over screen from Cruelty Squad. It reads, “Divine light severed. You are a flesh automaton animated by neurotransmitters”

You can put alt text directly in the image embed btw, like ![image description](image.url)

What in the children of atom is this?

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

In the early days of nuclear research he and radiation, they didn’t know how dangerous it was, and there was a lot of stupidity (and even more things that are stupidity in the hindsight of progress.)

But I’m pretty sure she never said this.

[–] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Flat Earth white Jesus didn't die for our sins so the circle Sun wouldn't bless us with its divine rays! 🤠

[–] hydroptic@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

the circle Sun

The funniest part about many flat Earthers is that they do believe that other planets etc are spherical (probably because it's obvious when you look at them through a telescope), somehow it's just the Earth that's flat

[–] Hule@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

B-but Earth is the center of the Univershe!

[–] hydroptic@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

Guess that could predispose a planet to being flat

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Ridiculous divinity reference aside, the sun’s light and heat are both radiation that our existence depends on.

However, if she prefers ionizing radiation I’m sure we can find some radithor, a radium water jar, or some basement full of radon for ~~her~~ the meme creator to soak in.

[–] Chiarottide@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

You know she's gonna turn around and say cellphone radiation gives you cancer

[–] tilefan@lemm.ee 9 points 1 month ago

dirty knees look at these

Posting this in response to every claim of Havana Syndrome

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 1 month ago

Weird how that terrible act of commie aggression has symptoms exactly like a hangover in a party city

[–] Tamkish@programming.dev 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Born of God and Void. You shall seal the blinding light that plagues their dreams.

Godzilla is the purest spirit of all.

Came here to make the Fallout reference, was beaten to it by basically everyone.
