https://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/Belgium-To-Shut-Nuclear-Reactor-On-Friday-Amid-Energy-Crunch.amp.html"Belgium announced on Friday that its Doel 3 nuclear reactor will disconnect from the grid and cease operations, even as the country fears blackouts this winter. It is one of four reactors at the Doel plant near the port of Antwerp, and is the first nuclear reactor to shut down in Belgium’s plan to exit nuclear power completely.
The move moves even as thousands of Belgians took to the streets on Wednesday to protest soaring electricity prices and high costs of living. In a recent Belgian media poll, 64% of Belgians are concerned that they might not be able to pay their energy bills."

is there an allegory behind teh scorp & the frog
2022-09-25 at 1:46 PM UTC
"A scorpion asks a frog to carry him over a river. The frog is afraid of being stung, but the scorpion argues that if it did so, both would sink and the scorpion would drown. The frog then agrees, but midway across the river the scorpion does indeed sting the frog, dooming them both.

A scorpion wants to cross a river but cannot swim, so it asks a frog to carry it across. The frog hesitates, afraid that the scorpion might sting it, but the scorpion promises not to, pointing out that it would drown if it killed the frog in the middle of the river. The frog considers this argument sensible and agrees to transport the scorpion. Midway across the river, the scorpion stings the frog anyway, dooming them both. The dying frog asks the scorpion why it stung despite knowing the consequence, to which the scorpion replies: "I am sorry, but I couldn't resist the urge. It's in my nature."[1]

the old fable of the scorpion and the frog
a scorpion is sitting on the shore when a frog swims by.
"please take me to to the other side," says the scorpion.
"no, you'll sting me"
"I won't"
so the scorpion climbs on the frog's back and the frog begins swimming. halfway across the river, the scorpion stings the frog.
"why have you stung me? now we'll both drown!"
"because I'm a scorpion"
"lol," said the scorpion, "lmao"

I saw a children's show recently who characterised the scorpion story in the same way
the scorpion does not wait until he's safe, he crashes the boat with no survivors because it's way funnier that way
the scorpion shitposts directly to emergency radio bands and opens fire on the police when they come looking for him
the scorpion crashes his passenger plane into a ski resort and hopes the media circus drives his bitch wife to kill herself
the scorpion prints money all day every day just to give it to niggers to spend on crack and guns

self-preservation in the deepest and strongest instinct any lifeform has; there's something... noble? about rejecting it for a reason so petty
like overcoming your limitations and dominating nature in the most unusual way

Yeah you're right, the actual moral of the story is more or less that some things are simply geared toward destruction; that you can't reason with a 'scorpion' because it just doesn't know any better.
I mostly just find it interesting to think about

SWIM always had a fantasy about grabbing a steering wheel when others are talking shit to him while driving and just pushing it or pulling it as hard as he could and curling up sideways as he braces for impact. Started when he was very little with his mother yelling at him on car rides home from places.
