My sourdough starter straight up died after I forgot it in the car for a weekend.

Feel for you, but that starter might just be in a coma. Seen some wild comebacks after a long fridge nap (which is basically what your car was). Try feeding it with some warm water and a bit of honey, the sugar can sometimes kickstart things. Give it a few days of regular feedings before you declare it totally dead. The worst that happens is you confirm what you already think.

Wait, honey? In a sourdough starter? (I thought that was a big no-no, sugar can feed the wrong stuff.)
