  1. Nuclear war is horrible and I hope it never happens. Yet, there are only a few countries that actually have nuclear weapons and the power to use them is concentrated in just a few individuals. This means the vast majority of the global population has no say on the question if nuclear weapons will be used.

    However, due to a potential nuclear winter, which could follow a nuclear war, even countries on the other side of the globe could be directly affected by a nuclear war. This impact could be quite severe and as they have no direct measure to prevent it, these countries should think about how they would prepare. Also, many of the preparations that would be helpful for a nuclear winter would also help for the climatic consequences of large volcanic eruptions or asteroid impacts. So, they should be done anyway.

    This is the gist of the argument I made in a new article in the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. You can read the full article here: thebulletin.org/2026/05/how-nu

    I missed the first episode, watched the second from behind the sofa.

  15. New post about the state of research around nuclear war and nuclear winter, with a focus on the food system.

    This one's a bit different, as it was originally an invited contribution to the United Nations Independent Scientific Panel on the Effects of Nuclear War. I also wanted to share it publicly, because I think there just aren't that many summaries of the state of nuclear winter research out there.

    It also discusses the most important gaps and unanswered research questions in the field. So, if you are interested in the topics in general or plan to work in the area, I think it could be an interesting read.

  21. I woke up to my dog sneezing and my skin itching because it’s FUCKING COLD outside. I filled the humidifier, set the heat to the daytime setting, and then checked the weather network. I currently reside in Brockville, and it’s damn cold, but I also saw the temperature in my childhood hometown of Marathon. Comparison may be the thief of joy, but it also gives incredible context and reminds me that I have experienced much worse than this moment. Im also glad to see proof that I’m not making shit up when I tell people I’ve experienced-50°.

  25. Hey Canadians on Mastodon, what hashtag are we using for this fucked up weather weekend? #NuclearWinter? #FuckItsCold? #LongerShortWeather?

    It’s currently -24°, feels like -30°. Tomorrow’s high is -20° and then we get 20cm snow the next day.

    Another question: does an extreme cold warning justify #StormChips? It’s not a STORM so to say, but we’re in a Yellow warning for the cold so I feel like it’s a good excuse for chips.

  29. Suppose a Totalitarian World Order built on the genocide of indigenous people and the theft of their resources can obtain peace. What happens next? The great nuclear powers turn on their own people. Well it’s already happening, so Trotsky will get his world revolution or heat death? He just got the timing wrong as Marx foresaw? Does all have to turn to shit first so the Orange Turd can text, the words that lie, “I told you so!”. With weak and MAD despots, oligarchs, plutocrats, theocrats and their techno fascist celebrity cults, only a barren Earth covered in toxic ash can be promised. #ResistWeakMen #TheGreatICEDeath #NuclearWinter #UnitedSpaceShip ? #LiarsPromises #FateOfEmpires #EcocideEmpires #BiosphereCollapse #UnitedShitHoleEnforcement #TWO #TheFederation #USSEnterprise

  34. 22/25 🧵 He said I looked too relaxed. Why shouldn't I be? When you understand that the train to Berlin and the train to the apocalypse share the same platform, you stop worrying about being late. Putin knows this. He’s family. My family knows the rhythm of the rails. #NuclearWinter #TrainSchedule #FamilyBusiness
