Ok, take this with a grain of salt because I read about it ages ago in a dubious pop-sci book and my memory is shaky. One time, they tried to gene edit yeast to be able to survive much higher alcohol concentrations. There’s lots of good reasons to want to do this… Beer/wine is just about the strongest beverage you can make without distillation of some kind because the yeast dies. Making way higher ethanol yields just from fermentation makes biofuel way more viable. Stuff like that.

EXCEPT… It nearly escaped, and was able to survive on it’s own. Yeast is very ubiquitous in nature, so a wild yeast that can tolerate massive ethanol concentrations could conceivably have altered life on earth as we know it.

A cursory internet search isn’t turning up anything about this, but I’m pretty sure I read it in the book Everything Is Going to Kill Everybody, if anyone wants to look harder than I did.

Means TV

Pretty much just Battle Craze, I’m hooked on it lol.

The soundtrack to Boyfriend Dungeon is OUTSTANDING, I will never stop listening to it.

A lot of public libraries offer access to ReferenceUSA through your library card. I vaguely remember that queries are pretty customizable on there, and exportable to various formats. Despite the generic name, it’s specifically for businesses. Would that work?

Oh geez that’s tricky… My first instinct is to say Towa Tei’s Sunny, the entire album. But the thing is, half of what I love about it is the nostalgia about how much I loved it the first time, and where I was when I listened to it. So maybe it’d be better to pick something you might’ve liked better under other circumstances? In that case… Hmmm… I’d say the audio drama Spines.

Start the largest non-equity housing co-op that money can buy.

This is awesome, I hope I get one near me someday.

Do they have a warrant canary? I bet they might, hopefully
