It’s good to see Isabel becoming a prominent fixture in the pro-nuclear, online presence. To me, the pro-nuke, zoomer, influencer, fashion model archetype she has created (hasn’t been imitated) seems strangely contrived, but she has been consistent about the cause for many years now. I’m used to this demographic producing materialistic and showy or otherwise insipid content (purses, jewelry, trips to Italy, un-boxings, mukbang). My theory is her online persona and content is ‘produced’ – that Isabel is a frontman for some non-governmental organization. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing. I have strange sensibilities and the contrived online world of social media chafes them.
I bought the book. Initial thumb-through looks good. I need a few hours to read it. I’ll post a review on Amazon.
The Atomic Show seems to offer insightful discussions on nuclear energy. I appreciate the efforts to promote this field, though I wish there were more diverse perspectives included. The comments section provides some interesting additional viewpoints.labubu live wallpaper
