Mine is this report by the central bank where they tested the insurance sector at-large for resillience to financial shocks. ^(Although after reading some books by nassim nicholas taleb, I realize that testing using the worst imaginable shocks isn't sufficient as black swan events are by their nature unpredictable)

I just cleaned up my downloads so I no longer have it, but a couple weeks ago it was a copy of Maid: The Role-Playing Game

Guidelines for a Space Propulsion Device Based on Heim’s Quantum Theory

It’s an interesting concept and seems plausible enough (same as with Planet X, Nemesis.. ok some of that Nibiru stuff is ridiculous) but like, the evidence just isn’t there to support it. Feels like we should have found SOME evidence for this kind of interstellar disaster by now. I don’t know, maybe I’m wrong.
