Of course. Everyone knows that agenothree is good for killing mycorrhizoidal spores. Silver just makes it better, especially when Threadfall occurs during the full moon.

I'll show myself out.

Joking aside, I need to look these guys up. Sounds interesting.

And now I have to go listen to that song or I'll have that bit running in my head all day. Thankfully, I think it's on YouTube...

If you know the song well enough, just singing the final line can help.

Which moon? There are two.

They've discovered a planet where it rains titanium.

Glass-like silicate and metals create a sort of 'water cycle' where they create silvered clouds and titanium rains.

Tech CEO Bryan Johnson is a literal vampire. In an attempt to keep himself eternally young he pays young people to donate blood to be used in an unnecessary transfusion. Most recently he talked his own son and father into contributing to the "Make Bryan Immortal" plan. He spends a couple of million a year on various different aging retardation strategies in addition to the vampirism.

So, you and your buddy are out on a small sailing boat, taking it from Cherbourg to Camaret via the English Channel, when your rudder breaks. Being 50 nautical miles from shore and not being Beowulf, you don't have the option of just swimming to safety, so you send out a distress call. It's immediately answered by a nearby ship, identifying itself as the three-masted Swedish sailing vessel Götheborg. You're concerned about the size disparity between your vessels, but you don't have much choice and the Swedes sound confident they'll be able to tow you to safe harbor.

Then it arrives... and you find yourself staring into the distance at a Swedish East Indian Company ship from the 18th century, questioning if you've somehow been transported into the distant past.

Wouldn't the contributions from his father and his son offset one another?
