The Dredgers regularly drop a cage full of oysters off the dock by their office on 2nd Street, as a way to test the canal's waters. Are they thriving, I asked? "They die within three months,” he replied.
Seriously, this is the best use anyone has come up with for the Metaverse so far:
In conclusion:

If there was a song called "marginally better than yesterday but only because yesterday was the worst" that would be my song for today.
