It predates the knitting that would use it for gloves, and most of them have openings either drastically larger or smaller than fingers

My fiance would get upset by something outside of us, then come back to the house and get me wound up and ranting about some obscure techno historical cold war thing for an hour or two so she could just listen and tune out the world

Even then, I didn't actually know he'd been there for the demon core because all the stories were about bombs and rockets, never the costs

He died back in the 90s, he'd moved to Los Alamos after the war, helped develop the hydrogen bomb, and worked there until retirement, then consulted until just before he died. His big"come to Jesus" moment was the demon core, and all that did was make him demand remote operation for experiments. He still blew up Bikini Atoll after.

Not everyone regretted what they did.

They do, but he was way more gung ho than the other scientists, so a lot of the stories include mention of how proud he was to have developed fat man

For one, these are made in countries that are not in OSHAs jurisdiction. For two, OSHA doesn't mandate any breaks, they do safety not labor rights. For three, you don't have kids do work like this, they get distracted and play with the plaster, they're better for manual labor in confined spaces.

I went to high school with a guy who would run into crosswalks because he thought it was funny that cars had to screech to a stop for him. He got hit by an 18 wheeler in front of dairy Queen at lunch one day, spent 3 months in a coma

I've worked with that before, the running joke was if he was out it was the same as adding two people to your team

Jesus fuck dude, you project way too much. Per OP, this was not a one off, and the comment thread is "get rehab or get divorce". If someone risks your kids safety and refuses to get help, then it's irresponsible to let them be around the kids

Per the OP, it was not
