Yeah! Screw you, cobalt-60! And I'm sure glad I'm not two-dimensional, but maybe I could poop through my mouth like a sea anemone.
jstanley•8m ago
People say that 2-dimensional life is impossible because it's impossible to make a 2-dimensional digestive system.

But you just need to make it work like a zip. The two halves of the body have interlocking hooks, and they move out of the way to let food pass through, and then reconnect.

kragen•7m ago
Yeah, Dynomight suggested that in the article.
jstanley•6m ago
Oops, I missed that!

This one in particular stood out:

> we also have lots of crazier tricks we could pull out like panopticon viral screening or toilet monitors or daily individualized saliva sampling or engineered microbe-resistant surfaces or even dividing society into cells with rotating interlocks or having people walk around in little personal spacesuits, and while admittedly most of this doesn’t sound awesome, I see no reason this shouldn’t be a battle that we would win.

Are you sure that the potential for society to start enforcing these things upon us is a reason to be thankful?

A hopefully tongue-in-cheek entry, or I certainly hope so. Or the guy (or lady) who wrote this is an arrrr ZeroCovidCommunity regular on reddit.

Sounds better than human extinction from bioweapons.

I found this to be a disturbing read. Do not recommend.

Eating cardamom as I read this. My go to spice to keep mouth busy and flavorful and stay away from junk food.
