You may not like it, but this is what Peak Freedom looks like.
American English has “Buttfuck, Idaho”, possibly substituting more polite names, and/or other equally sparsely populated states. If it’s abroad, it becomes Buttfuckistan or some equivalent.
Not sure about a British equivalent, but I’ve seen “Invernowhere” used in a Scottish context (there’s probably a swearier version this was bowdlerised from), and Dylan Thomas named an imaginary Welsh town Llareggub (read it backwards).
There’s no such thing as an “alpha” in biology (the concept comes from a methodologically flawed 1950s study of adolescent wolves in captivity), let alone human society, so an “alpha” is one of those things which is whatever people use the term as a placeholder for. Personally, I consider it interchangeable with “basic dickhead”.
I’m guessing you meant Corporate Memphis, not Ettore Sottsass Memphis. Though it could do with wavier arms, for that webinar-promo look.

That’s like using not hitting your head against a wall to treat headaches.
How does it suck? I’ve lived in several places with induction stoves, and have found them to be as responsive as gas if not more so. Are you perchance mistaking old-fashioned electrical hobs (the ones with the solid metal coil that eventually glows red) for induction?
English did historically use æ, as the Latin ae-ligature (along with œ), though it went out of fashion at around the end of the Victorian era, and may not have been used in American English except as a stylistic affectation.
English historically has not done vowel symbols other than AEIOU and the occasional Y, leaving the speaker to bloody well figure out themselves which vowel sound a letter represents in a specific word, leaving it free to use ligatures and diacriticals as accents (i.e. the archaic dieresis in “coördinate” informing the reader that the “oo” is not a “ooh” digraph, these days seen only in the New Yorker). In contrast, languages like German and the Scandinavian languages treat accented vowels as distinct vowels of their own, moving them to the end of the alphabet in the dictionary.
Isn’t ø just the Danish/Norwegian equivalent of the German ö?
In any case, it could be used to disambiguate words with different o sounds; i.e., “polish” (to shine a surface by rubbing) from “Pølish” (from Pøland).
