Reply to comment by Accelerator231 in Why were the control rods in the reactor featured in the HBO series 'Chernobyl' (2019) tipped with graphite? by Figorama
Pretty much the design of the reactor. It doesnt use enriched uranium nor heavy water. So it has to have another source of moderation to get the reaction going from a less fissile fuel. Hence, graphite.

I was at a local bar (Tucson, AZ) for the 2018 game. Stress-drank the entire time. Blacked out the moment Gronk dropped that last toss.
Woke up on thebother side of a mountain. No fucking clue how I got there.
Never. Again.

Could be because of the records they kept. Thats what threw me for a loop about the Sackler lawsuits. There were emails with exchanges like (paraphrasing):
"Hey... this is gonna kill a metric fuckload of people annually..."
"Yeah, and? You want to make quarterly goal or not?"
Like even putting the dripping lack of morality and ethics asode, who the fuck is dumb enough to commit that shit to writing?

Geitty is a chaotic meth beast, so he very much so related to the energy of the city and the team.

Reply to ELI5: Is "exhaustion" an actual medical diagnosis? by stellalugosi
To add to what others have noted about it not being a diagnosed condition and more a symptom of an undsrlying cause, I also want to add it can be used in a situation with MULTIPLE underlying causes where "Exhaustion" is just easier.
Say you have someone who has the following issues: Disturbed or broken sleep cycle due to undiagnosed sleep apnea, malnourished becuase their diet isnt complete/varied enough, high stress fatigue due to constant financial concerns, hypertension, blood sugar approaching diabetic levels.
You know, a fairly common American adult trying to work a 9 to 5 thats more a 5 to 9 while being worried about everything under the sun.
One of the effects of all this is the person is regularly going to be bone tired due to the lack rest, high stress, and poor diet.
"Exhaustion" covers the resulting condition of all of those underlying factors because its not one diagnosis, its a lot.
