Becoming a radcon / health physics technician is a great way to get into the nuclear field. It's lucrative as well!

Such a fun time. I was so excited to show off my first radioactive dinosaur bones and other fossils. I bought them at Museum of the San Rafael Swell (@heritage_ranch_) just a couple hours before this open night.

It was great to be a part of this and to speak to the public about my favorite subjects: nuclear power and radiation. It was amazing to see the interest this community had in what we are doing. They had so many great questions! I enjoyed showing off my new radioactive fossils!

Last Thursday, we paused site work and opened up Ward250 to our community in Emery County. Over 300 neighbors joined us for an evening of nuclear reactors and BBQ, and lots of people learned about how nuclear works for the first time. Team Valar is grateful for Emery County!

I need your help! I’m hiring a freelance Video Editor & Social Media Manager for The Rad Guy. I have hours of raw nuclear/health physics footage (including my Fukushima trip) ready for Shorts, TikToks & YouTube. DM me your portfolio & rates!

A recent Harvard study links proximity to nuclear plants with increased cancer risk. This isn't new, and the pattern remains: proximity is incorrectly used over modeled dose, correlation is assumed to be causation, and plausibility is completely ignored. youtu.be/9hjEy8ial7o?si…

Not everyone gets to visit the two new advanced AP1000 modular reactors at Plant Vogtle in the United States. This is your chance to see one up close, bricks size. Real AP1000 units are now faster and more cost effective to build because of our modular design and mature supply chain. Want to try building a bricks-size AP1000 reactor yourself? We're giving away another five Westinghouse bricks sets to people who reshare this post. We'll draw names on Monday from everyone who reposted! Can't wait to share the fun!

Should we be concerned about #RadioactiveShrimp from #WALMART? Besides the fact that these shrimp seemed to have been stored in unsanitary conditions, the radioactive part is the least of our concerns. youtu.be/CTNzaWmamxI?si…

I'm in my element here at the HPS conference. For some reason, for my first conference, I decided to torture myself by presenting. It was great to show my work and get feedback from my fellow HPs. #HPS2025

@AmyLangeKawmura @FreNo74 Thank you. I want to tell you that I appreciate your perspective and find your blog extremely insightful. I think anyone who calls themselves a nuclear advocate should read your blog. I truly wish I could have talked with someone like you when I was in Japan. Perhaps next time.

It's strawberry season in Fukushima and I just ate my first fresh fruit from Fukushima while having lunch 6 miles (11 km) south of Daiichi. Honest review: hands down the BEST strawberries I've ever had. So sweet! They're juicy like a peach. I'll be thinking about them for a while

The maritime shipping industry is barreling toward nuclear power with little to stop it. Of all #APNE25 presentations, the shipping industry gave the most realistic and clear path toward implementing nuclear power. No pie-in-the-sky outlook or promised ponies. Just facts.

@FreNo74 @AmyLangeKawmura I can't speak for the ones in the photo here, but when I originally looked at the color of the ones I bought, I was slightly skeptical. However, I quickly learned that the color did not correlate with the flavor and juiciness. The inside was actually a slight peach color.

@AmyLangeKawmura @FreNo74 And the more I think about it the cost isn't too bad when you compare it to other things we consume on a daily basis.

@FreNo74 This is cheap for Japanese strawberries, they're pricey here for a bunch of reasons, mainly the high quality. It was a delicious treat, totally worth it, though I don't know if I'd eat them daily. Still, we consume way more expensive stuff every day that's not nearly as tasty.

I made it to Japan and I am really enjoying attending the Asian Pacific Nuclear Energy 25. It is truly an honor to be amongst such giants of the industry. It is amazing to see the turnaround that Japan has made toward nuclear power 14 years after the Fukushima Daiichi accident.
