Showerthoughts

I'd just had a cousin burger
A what
but most importantly, did you inject or snore
Asleep all night, snoring drugs.
Inject drugs by day, snore by night. All day.
I feel like that will become illegal pretty quickly.
Probably, can't imagine it being good for your health. But there may be a brief, highly profitable window.
So you kind of miss the obvious long term application in this scenario: buy a totally realistic dildo clone of my penis, buy a clone of my boobs etc. A step beyond meat but the more realistic application of this technology in the sex world.
I think they'll be eating their favourite onlyfans creators, just not in the way you're suggesting.
And how do you keep that from deteriorating and decaying? It would be meat after all and meat has the nasty property to get really bad in very short time without a living body attached to it keeping it fresh.
Well planned obsolescence is a good thing for the content maker - the customer has to buy it again if they like it. The ultimate DRM?
Okay, if you phrase it that way then it is a feature not a bug 🤔😄

Pretty sure it would be considered cannibalism and made illegal
Prion City here we GOOOOOOOOO!
Where are the infectious prions coming from if it is lab grown meat? There should be the same risks with any other lab grown meat then, because prions are not something special to only human meat.
Long as we don't lab grow brains for food we should be good on that front.
Not necessarily, most of the known prions we associate with cannibalism are neurological, but that doesn't mean there aren't any that primarily affect other parts of the body that require proteins that aren't infectiously badly folded.
I'm pretty sure cannibalism is already legal in the United States. The problem is you can't legally acquire human meat.
I don't think cannibalism is illegal in many places, the problem with it is acquiring the meat.
This kind of concept is in Brandon Cronenbergs' film Antiviral
The problem is though is who tf would wanna do that (eat it)
the same people who bought the bath water, I guess
I'd eat a Bell Delphine burger. I wouldn't spend my own money on it, but I feel like that'd make for a fun story.
Armin Meiwes went vegetarian I just checked.
He was always very oddly into ethical consumption.
Very
I keep mixing up Armin Meiwes and Armin Meiwald. Really unfortunate coincidence that their names are so similar yet what they're known for is so different.
He's a children's author, oof 😆
Slightly different life choices between the two.
Not only an author but the co-creator and original host of Die Sendung mit der Maus, Germany's longest-running and most popular educational show for children.
People into vore are about to feast!
