someone recently told me that podcasts are the bandaids put on the loneliness epidemic and I believe them I grew up in a big family and always had this constant sound of life in the background. I later learned about the “quiet” of the city. The terrifying reality of hundreds of thousands of people stacked on top of one another that live in isolation and don’t have deep community. They instead form these pseudo relationships with people on the web, and they fill the silence in their homes with “digital sounds of life” to drown out the quiet. Strange and sad. (For some levity, here is lil gmo with some of that big family. A very “she knew who she was from a young age moment”.)

In this piece, I'm exploring the crisis of microplastics and the science that is offering us hope, all intertwined with my feelings on humanity and the rapidly eroding notions of our separation from nature and from each other Some part of me supports “the polymer diaspora’s” rebellion against borders and imaginary geopolitical boundaries But mostly I am concerned that humanity’s collective dissociation from nature has created a world where we now literally find microplastics in placentas https://t.co/P10tVP44Tu

New instant sourdough that is technically not GMO since they are using DNA sequencing to “curate” existing microorganisms. I would obviously engineer super microbes from this baseline but alas labelling something as “Non-GMO” is good for marketing. Leavenfoods.com/science/

Time for a Synbio Intervention (with love) Take a deep dive with me and learn why “a cell is not a computer—a cell is a cell” The bioengineering revolution isn’t dead. It’s just taking the long road. https://open.substack.com/pub/editlife/p/synbios-reality-check

There is this idea that discovery is linear & with enough incentives/tools we’ll create the future But we have so many examples of breakthroughs by serendipity! Bring back think tanks! Not just incubators/build funds, but spaces for people to think, to experiment, to dream!
