June 1, 1983: Monday night on the bank of the Nolichucky River had been a time of gentle breezes and soft starlight, but clouds had begun rolling in yesterday morning. By the time I reached the shelter last night they were looking ominous. No rain fell overnight, but day broke gloomy and foreboding.

Two decades ago, Helen Roberts interviewed #ChristaPike, the youngest woman on death row, and saw a vulnerable young woman shaped by severe trauma. Roberts looks at how the system failed her long before her terrible crime.

Das ist die sehr verquere, menschenunwürdige Logik in den USA, nachdem zwei Spritzen Pentobarbital Frau Pike nicht umbrachten, wurde sie jetzt im ein Krankenhaus gebracht.
Um? Um ihr Leben zu retten, oder was sollen die Ärzt:innen dort sonst tun?

From May 24, 1983: I awoke cold and clammy this morning and lay in my sleeping bag fascinated, watching tiny wisps of cloud swirl in through the gaping holes in the shelter’s wall above my head, drift leisurely across the ceiling, and slip out of the open side.

May 18, 1983: Derrick Knob shelter was in an excellent spot, similar in appearance to Russell Field. About a dozen small deer were wandering around nibbling the grass and the lower leaves, and they let me approach surprisingly close. It is pretty amazing how brave the deer are in the national parks, where no hunting is allowed.

Some caves make you feel like an explorer.
Ruby Falls made me feel like I’d accidentally triggered a side quest in an RPG - complete with the voice of the guy who discovered it echoing through the speakers. All that was missing was a boss fight at the end.
Instead, there was a waterfall. Probably the best kind of plot twist 😀

Wohl keine Überlebenden nach Explosion in US-Munitionsfabrik
18 Menschen werden nach der Explosion in einer Sprengstofffabrik im US-Bundesstaat Tennessee noch vermisst. Die Ermittler befürchten, dass sie alle tot sind. Warum es zu der Explosion kam, ist weiterhin unklar.
The #explosion of this #Tennessee blasting material factory is a strange incident.
Now of course the #US is known to be terrible at #IndustrialSafety, there have been a lot of major accidents in recent years. So that is absolutely a possibility here.
If, though, this wasn't an accident, thaaaan ..
I don't know. Russia, Cartels or someone trying to cover up robbing lots of explosives. Can't think of much more.
