Or if the water bed is 10-20 meters tall.
Spoiler: Perhaps not so much? (click to show/hide)

Comparing to the humans, it looks like the "safe dose" is reached at... about 10 meters. So yeah, about as much.

I guess if those humans are ~6 meters tall.

I'd estimate more like 4 meters for the bed, if we don't have to worry about irradiating a story below.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

Plutonium 238 is safe enough to play hot potato with.
As long as you don't have a large enough lump to burn your hands.
And I would reccomend gloves so you don't get plutonium on your skin.
But the radiation is pretty much stopped by your skin.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

Heiterverzweiflung. Not a legit German word so much as something a friend and I made up in German class once. "Carefree despair". When life is so fucked that you can't stop laughing.

If you look closely you can see a guy wearing a striped shirt with outstretched hands holding up the explosion. He's probably quite warm.

On normal internet forums, threads devolve from content into trolling. On Bay12, it's the other way around.

Heat makes him cold, but the shockwave makes him hot because it's normal air and he's antimatter.
