The Not-So-Distant Bio-Future
Posted by Qais Fulton
With Parliament defending their recent vote allowing for the creation of human-animal hybrid embryos for scientific study, the future takes one step closer to the noisome, unsettling din we all eagerly anticipate. It won’t be long before that kind of strange bio-tech has wriggled its way into (semi) polite society the same way all far-out tech has trickled down into common usage.
First thing in the morning you’ll slap your wall-screen to life so that the beast-women of the world can preach the gospel of a new, better, psuedo-you. All followed by an advertising parade for genetic remapping agents so gratuitous and glossy in its hustle it would make the advertising execs of today weep. If you’re lucky maybe some seizure-inducing cartoons right after.
God damn I can’t wait for the future.

I’m scared.
It isn’t often I’m scared.
But I am now.

That was…it was…I’m not sure what it was, really. Does anyone have more insight on what it was?

I wouldn’t be disgusted if she was a terrifying cat-human hybrid, and that realization is more disturbing than the actual video.

This was one of the most disturbing things I’ve seen in a loooong time. I’m scared, too.
