...reminds me of going to South Korea for a conference in 2016 or so, and noticing how overall, South Koreans dressed in much better-made clothing than I typically see available for sale to Americans.

I also noticed higher-quality fabrics in Australia.

It was also interesting to learn about what elastane is doing/does in making garments stretchy, while simultaneously making them wear out even faster.

While reading about fungal nutrition today, I just learned about radiotrophic fungi, which are fungi that can apparently use ionizing radiation as an energy source. Apparently melanin is required to harness the ionizing radiation.

Okay, back to work. I have a lot of reading and organizing to do still. This stage of writing does not make for particularly thrilling blog posts.
