Disgusting how they name them after indigenous people they slaughtered
Amerikkkans gonna Amerikkkan
Also every helicopter (well, almost).
There’s a discussion of this in An indigenous Peoples History of the US where every helicopter has an indigenous name, osama bin Laden was code named “Geronimo” and being in enemy territory is referred to as “in-country” or “Indian country”. It’s gross
I prefer Big Boom Boom.
Like the good morning America watermark. What are those weird triangular feet projection things?
The tower’s guy wires being vaporized/plasmafied
Holy shit, makes sense but crazy also.
Yeah pretty wild. Titanic amounts of energy loosed with no aim, no mind, just pure raw power dumping into the nearest matter unlucky enough to be in the path. Terrifying.
The mottled surface of the fireball in the last image and the way it looks like a navel orange really messes me up, too. Like this is cursed shit to which humanity should not bear witness.
Yeah I think you nailed it. Definitely feels like forbidden knowledge, or like breaking some cosmic rule. The weird organic bubble thing is sorta stomach churning.
Can’t believe that guys wires were murked for the empire
Metal cables that held up the tower getting vaporized
By far the scariest things humans have ever made on purpose. Can you imagine a world history where somehow nukes are easier to make and invented far sooner?
me when i fart:
Weird that it looks like a microscope picture of a fat tardigrade, or maybe a sad balloon deflating in a microwave, rather than one of the great horrors of the modern era.
