“The Demon Core”, a mass of plutonium that was responsible for the death of two scientists on two separate occasions.

It only got that name due to being involved in the two criticality accidents that killed two people, and what happened is fairly simple–people didn’t treat a highly dangerous material with the respect it was due.

A Cautionary Story

I started watching porn at the age of 11. It was vanilla stuff mainly consisting of images and gifs of naked women. I then started watching lesbian porn and then moved to straight porn.

What Was Life Like For a Jester In The Medieval Era?

The Erfurt Latrine Disaster: When 60-100 Nobles Drowned In A Pit Of Human Excrement

In July 1184, Henry VI, King of Germany (later Holy Roman Emperor), held court at a Hoftag in the Petersberg Citadel in Erfurt.

On the morning of 26 July, the combined weight of the assembled nobles caused the wooden second story floor of the building to collapse and most of them fell through into the latrine cesspit below the ground floor, where about 60 of them drowned in liquid excrement.

King Henry was said to have survived only because he sat in an alcove with a stone floor.
