I love that the photo is grainy, as if there's so much radiation in the air that he can't get a clear picture of it.
- It’s a funny detail :D
  butttttt americium-241 from smoke detectors are primarily alpha emitters, so the air, the sludge itself, and the camera lens would shield the camera’s sensors from being noticeably exposed :3
  
  However, an exposed camera sensor and a bit of americium is an interesting way to create a decent random number generator.

I suspect superpowered cancer is the most likely outcome.

  I'm going to show off my freedom and wash my car daily in the driveway.
  That's how this works right?
- Whaaaat
  
  it's mainly to avoid polluting the groundwater, environmental laws are strict and people tend to stick to the rules (and will call the police on you if you don't)

Some folks will be like "why would you need 350 smoke detectors?" and it's like motherfucker, have you somehow never conducted an all-smoke-detector-orchestra?

I like the radioactive grain effect on the photos.
