I wake up like this sometimes, but it's more like "ah, excellent, you're up. Inquiring minds want to know if it's possible to regrow limbs torn off in a tug of war"Wolverine style. https://t.co/WJSol1SnrF https://t.co/SAvZmYuR0m


me: [squints] good morning- my brain: ah, excellent, you’re up. inquiring minds want to know: how many people does it take on average to rip another person in half? using a tug-of-war system, no pulleys me: what the fuck brain: well? me: ok ok let me make a coffee first

It turns out that "magic pixie dust regrew my finger" wasn't fake. They were purifying stem cells from muscle tissue in pig bladders, and a brother of the founder spoke of his success before they completed the whole medical trial, and the news hyped it.https://t.co/o4LDvsu6NZ

Adding all the research I found on human-animal-hybrids to that channel since it seems to be fundamentally about conditioning pigs to be better hosts for external limb regeneration.https://t.co/RY7DLZrw8y

I remember my mom talking to me about human animal hybrids years before Alex Jones even brought that. I'm sitting there snickering because I've known about that stuff since gradeschool, and understood the basics of gentics since before we even had classes on the stuff.

Combining CRISPR together with stem-cell creation, and then combining it with collagen scaffolds to regenerate fleshy bits. That's going to really freak out my mom now what she understands a bit of what i'm talking about.https://t.co/s1EQkWy6Lm

Spent 2 hours today explaining basic DNA stuff to my mom.Now she understands how changing your diet doesn't change your genes, and how curing stuff doesn't make the genes go away.She immediately had much more intelligent questions about CRISPR. Oh no.https://t.co/nWTadgOLF7

The answer, it seems, is to become part dog. 😌https://t.co/FssbUUcXbs

Organs seem easier than limbs.https://t.co/yZAIG46chb

Told my mom that there is an non-zero risk that eating dog feces may reboot her metabolism to the point that her early menopause reverses itself will become fertile again.She reminded me that she had a hysterectomy.I told her "I know" and smirked.https://t.co/wzLvbFlVAI
