Wow, I just find out about a service that would allow me to read the occasional post on X just in time to see that the service has been suspended. I have a total embargo for that platform otherwise due to the severe and total enshitification.

Thanks for that, super interesting about sieches. A standing wave not directly from the moon or waves.From the wiki:

Trying to wrap my head around the term "cultural practitioner", even after looking it up. Don't we all transmit our culture?

I think the style is intended to evoke the way the story developed at the time, as drips of new information came in on the news. I stuck with it and am happy with that decision.

Besides the achiral glycerol mentioned in the article, some bacteria subsist on methane. That is also non-chiral and in large quantity in petroleum and under the sea.
