Alien Domestication

The process by which humans selectively breed, genetically modify, or behaviorally train extraterrestrial organisms for utility, companionship, or agricultural purposes. It's the extension of the ancient human-animal partnership to the stars. This could involve tailoring a fast-breeding, methane-processing Martian "moss" to produce breathable air, or taming a hexapedal, docile grazer to serve as a beast of burden on a low-gravity world. It's making the alien useful and familiar, blurring the line between foreign life and a resource.
Example: In the Frontiers Saga, settlers on a new planet selectively breeding the native "Grunts" for their nutritious milk and sturdy hides is Alien Domestication. On a microbial level, it could involve culturing extremophile bacteria from Europa to use as living filters in a water reclamation plant.

Hair spider

A tight, tangled knot of loose hair and lint that forms inside clothing during the clothes dryer cycle. It typically hides inside garments, causing an annoying lump or a phantom tickling sensation against the skin until it is found or falls out onto the floor during folding.
