Yup. Radium alpha particles can't penetrate through the skin. The risk for radium comes from either ingesting it or your skin absorbing the actual element.

Or being black.

Totally makes sense to me. And given the extremely anti-queer environment in Russia at the moment, completely with anti-gay propaganda focused on how gay men are all terrible child molesters and a threat to society, I wouldn't be surprised at all if that's contributed to her dislike of queer men. So sad.

Kat, I'm super confused. Didn't Yulia come out as bisexual a few years ago, and Lena as a supporter of LGBTQ rights? There's an extensive write up about it here, and how the whole "ha ha they're fake lesbians" treatment in the media is inaccurate:

Really? Because you might want to take a look at one of Ra's' most famous comics, Birth of the Demon, which goes into detail about his Chinese/Arab origins, as well as scan any of the numerous biographies written about him on the web.

It's not specified in the comics - his ancestors are only referred to as "Chinese nomads".

In what world does Ra's al Ghul have the appearance of a white guy in comics?! I mean Talia gets whitewashed all the time, unfortunately, but Ra's? He pretty much always looks either Arab or a mixture of Arab and Chinese.

That's not true. Ra's al Ghul is of Arab and Chinese nomadic origins, and he specifically looked for a woman with the same ethnic makeup (Melisande) in order to give birth to a child with the same makeup as him (Talia).

First of all, please don't use the word g*psy, it is a slur. The word you're looking for is Romani.

As compared to unprocessed pet food. Okay buddy...

Because she enjoys it? Why the fuck else would you give a cat a treat.

It really depends on the cat - some are more sensitive than others - also not all dairy foods have the same amount of lactose (high fat dairy, in particular, tends to have less of it).

Oh my god, that sounds adorable though :D
