Apparently the latest thing that scientists are worried about is that some unknown eldritch magic is causing the expansion of the universe to accelerate since the big bang instead of decelerate by unknown means. I also found out that some scientists who may or may not have heard about the last theory speculate that there is an unknown, unthinkably big thing outside the borders of the universe pulling bits of the universe into it.

I heard that somewhere in space there dwells a cloud of ethylformate, a compound of alcohol that is part of the chemicals that give raspberries their taste. Alcohol, being a carbon compound, is almost as exciting to find in space as microbes due to having a similar formation which would be nice to know how it formed so as to further invent theories as to how life assembles itself.

I heard that there exists mushrooms that can subsist entirely on polyurethane, a plastic that is incredibly commonly used in everything and takes centuries to decompose. It naturally grows in the Amazon and recently has been employed at various landfills in Ecuador. As you can tell, nothing happened to me today.

Recently I returned from my 4-day vacation to somewhere and on the way I stopped by Monticello. It was somewhat small and only one room was painted the way that it was known to have been painted at the time of it's building, which was the exact shade of yellow as the eggplants in the gardens nearby. Said room had a pulley-operated elevator installed into the paneling behind one of the fireplaces which was used to transport wines. It was pretty interesting.

I was thinking about how energy can sometimes turn into matter and O'l Mom said that energy is mass X the speed of light squared. This gave me the idea to take a wheelbarrow full of junk and put a flashlight on it with a mirror several yards away. Turn on the flashlight and the light will bounce back at it a tiny bit after you turned on the flashlight. The wheelbarrow is now faster than light! You then just have to square the speed, which is easy as there is 1 speed of light and will be 1 when squared. The junk will then turn into electricity. Try it out for yourself!
