I regret to inform you (grimes, whoever that is) that capitalism has already developed a baby making factory
I used to argue that back in CA: "The paperclip maximizer is already here and it doesn't even need to be self-aware to destroy the environment to maximize its preprogrammed imperatives."
But no, the treats they consumed said it has to be a scary (and probably sexy) robot deity first for it to be a problem.
CA?
Yeah, at some point the idea about cyberpunk/whatever other ideas about monstrous god machines being capitalism (or at least modern society, depends on how lib the author is). Early blue curtains, I guess.
yeah it's crazy how "fast" things change. everybody wants pizza at the party and the pizza shows up, but everybody who eats it throws up and says somebody took a shit on it.
now, just hours later, the number of people at the party trying the pizza is down 10%.
truly, this is the end of pizza.
Following this down the road, cause this sorta rambling is my bag.
Capital goes full Matrix and grows us in birthtanks with our brains plugged into n-dimensional adspace, and this is cheaper than people fucking somehow. The Matrix crashes itself in a market bubble after every uploaded tech-broverlord begins chasing faster turn around and cheaper production by skipping on QA. The last generation of humans is born with only the ability to imagine a single NFT.

That last line would hit like thunder at the end of a short story.

I heard that grimes drowned in 3 inches of water at the penguin exhibit.
She said she got an 'A' on her Edgar Allen Poe paper and is a scrabble master.
is there a literary equivalent of someone who just talks to hear themselves talk? That seems to sum up Grimes with her posts.
Hi hey quick question, how do we do this infinite growth on a finite planet?
We colonize space where resources are notoriously abundant and easy to access.
What is a grimes
Thanks for merking Kissinger @UlyssesT we have missed you!
