An interesting take on zombies would be a virally mediated analgesia.
This kind of zombie plague has already happened before. Leprosy-induced neuropathy has been a thing for all of human history.
You'd just need to improve upon it.
There's a reason people born with congenital analgesia don't often survive childhood, and why leprosy is so lethal.
Restaurant workers scalding their forearms down to the muscle, warehouse workers not noticing they've crushed toes, etc
Or people who'd let illnesses go ignored until far too late.
All denied medical care
Whole economic sectors dissolving as the manual labor required literally tears apart the workers
You're in the waiting room next to a guy whose foot is rotting off. On the other side is a woman with 3rd degree burns on one entire arm
They'd be given nothing, perhaps a bipartisan means-tested $300 check.
You don't need a rage virus if a perfectly normal one can cause rage.
You're gonna need a virus that specifically targets either the peripheral nervous system, or does better: retroviral mutation of the PRDM12 gene.
For this, you need to engineer a lentivirus.
HIV is the best known lentivirus, but isn't ideal

You want airborne transmission with high r0.
Measles would work perfectly if it had lentiviral characteristics.
Bam: highly contagious, incredibly infectious, airborne analgesia with fast incubation *and* added immunological suppression.
They will get all the rage they need when US society tries its bullshit on them.

So you want to generate interesting melodies.
1. Make a file called 1235.txt containing, one per line, all 24 unique permutations of the elements 1 2 3 5.
2. Cp 1235.txt to D.txt
3. Use sed to convert the numbers in D.txt to notes. Now you have 24 permutations of the major tetrachord in D.
4. Play them each. If it sounds like it increases tension, mark the beginning of that cell in 1235.txt with a +. If it sounds like it decreases tension, mark with a -.
Now those 24 melodic cells are divided into two groups: tension increasers and resolvers.
5. Rinse and repeat for all 12 keys.
You now have 13 plaintext files, filled with stuff like + 1 2 5 3 and - D E F# A
6. Figuratively roll dice to decide, given a +/- cell, what the next cell should be.
33% chance a + follows a +, etc.
Now you're outputting a stream of dynamic tensions: ++-+++-+-+---+ etc

It is literally just a mesh of resistors and some light bulbs. No logic gates, no programming, nothing at all resembling AI.

An interesting thing about carp is that they can go into anoxic hibernation and switch to an anaerobic metabolism based on converting glycogen to ethanol.
The waste ethanol is diffused out the gills
https://t.co/V3D1umHf04
Carp can switch over to an anaerobic metabolism and quietly exhale booze until the situation gets better.
They basically evolved the same metabolic pathway as yeast, independently.
In theory, if you spent a few thousand years breeding carp for it, you could use them to make booze.
They'd be enormous, almost entirely glycogen deposits with a fish added as an afterthought.
The really interesting thing about anaerobic carp, is that they can go 4-5 months without oxygen by relying on liver glycogen.
You, a human, have only about 100 grams of glycogen in your liver, about 400 more grams in your skeletal muscles. Call it 500 grams total.
In humans, glycogen is also burned for energy. This is where the marathon runner's bonk comes from: you only have about 2,000 calories worth, and running a marathon burns those 2,000 calories.

I’ll address every nonsense argument and lie used to defend the suicidal gender ideology Thats in vogue today:
3:45 - “So what if you don’t have gametes?”
It’s called a birth defect. You’re still male or female.
~5:00 *nonsense trying to say the sexes of seahorses could be swapped coz male carry the eggs*
male doesn’t produce eggs, he produces the sperm. He’s still the male. If I impregnated a chick then carried the amniotic sac in a backpack ‘til the baby was done I’ll still be male🤦♂️
5:10 - we could say there’s 4 sexes of fruit fly cause there’s 3 producers of different sized sperm
No. They’re still producing sperm. They’re males. This is idiotic. Is this whole video like this? (Probably. 99% likely. Abandon hope.)
~6:10 - hermaphroditism and sequential hermaphroditism exists therefore....
No. Some animals being hermaphrodites, which is meaningless w/o the existence of binary sex to contrast it to, still doesn’t make gender ideology or transgenderism valid.
Intersex ≠ transgenderism 🙄
6:20 - bilateral gynandromorphism is a disorder in some species (not in humans). Has nothing to do w/ “gender” or transgenderism.
Ova-testes in humans are also a disorder, usually found in those w/ the karyotype disorders that you ppl also try to appropriate (extra X’s/Y’s).
3:45 - “So what if you don’t have gametes?”
It’s called a birth defect. You’re still male or female.
*one horrible doctor does a horrible thing* "oh I guess gender is horrible" miss me with that transphobic nonsense
