So I am slowly plugging my way through a story for a prompt (roughly "write something creepy set in 1986") and researching things (and last night re-uncovering a complex trigger about Challenger) and every so often I run into something and am all, "Oh. Hey. Chernobyl was in 1986 too, huh."
1986 was kind of a lot, actually, even aside from the overwhelming existential dread.
Let's dance in style
Let's dance for a while
Heaven can wait
We're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best
But expecting the worst
Are you gonna drop the bomb or not?
