Default Hey honey. How did work go today?

Pretty good for the most part. Only thing of note today was I accidentally sent a super sonic missile into our nuclear powered enemies land today. Outside of that… same o.

I'm surprised by the relatively low-key response from Pakistan; that could have gone sideways fast.
Apparently, in India, it is:

One would hope they don't have a retaliate on launch policy.

I think it was during the Cold War 1958-ish, when the US dropped a nuclear bomb on some kids playhouse. The pilot saw a 'fault' in the cockpit - a bomb locking pin hadn't fully engaged. His co-pilot went back into the bomb bay to have a look, and while crawling around, mistakenly pulled the release pin while lifting himself over the bomb. The bomb dropped, crashed through the 'closed' bay doors and 'bombs away'. Fortunately the fission warhead was stored separately in the bomb bay, so it only made a 30 ft deep by 75 ft wide crater and took out a few buildings. No one killed but they had to pay the farmer ~ $55,000 in compensation. At the time, many US warplanes carried nuclear weapons in case the cold war suddenly turned into a shooting war.
