Didn’t we want to clone ourselves in case we needed a kidney some years back?

ask me again why i want to be cremated.
I’m sure that’ll go great with capitalism

A little glass vial? A little glass vial!
They’ll humane-wash it with some fraud credential they created — like everything else — but the body inside will be some Palestinian, Uyghur, or “other” gulag prisoner; sourced from a fascist pipeline.
It’ll turn into “Soup Is Good Food” by DK or Soylent Green so fucking fast
“Ethically sourced.” Uh huh.
I believe Larry Niven wrote about this very concept.
If I recall, it seems that while nice in theory, capitalism and less ethical folks become a problem quickly. To be fair though, the same can be said if pretty much any industry.
They want $7500 for an eyeball? No, no, no! I can get you one for $750. Free range, not caged. Good stuff. Mostly legal. Meet me in the dark alley tonight.
I take lungs now, gills come next week.
In other news, I was today years old when I clicked on all the eyeball imagery in Blade Runner. Missed the forest for the trees kinda thing.
i seem to recall a scarlett johansson/ewan mcgregor movie about this
I think Kiera Knightley and Andrew Garfield did one with a similar, if less action packed, one.
The Island? I don’t recall it being a big hit, but I enjoyed it.
It starred Scarlett Johansson and Ewan McGregor. We could watch them watch paint dry for two hours and it would still be pleasant on the eyes.
Been saying this ever since I heard of lab-grown meat. Why would you wait for kidney donation when your own DNA can be used to grow a healthy kidney for transplant.
Kidney 5843B, you have won a trip to the island!
Image a greenhouse where they grow human feet, whole legs, loose eyes and a bunch of hearts next to another greenhouse where they grow arms that wave as you walk past, their fingernails perfectly groomed. You see a bunch of scalps with a youthful head of hair next to some carefully protected brains. Perfect teeth growing row after row. And as you look around you realise how happy people will be with the spare body parts you’re growing, and feel a deep form of gratitude your father got you in this new industry because thanks to him you are a rich man with a big house and a big car and a perfect wife.
I mean, sure. Anyone who can grow an entire human body, bit by bit, can assemble a perfect wife. I mean, have a perfect wife.
Or you could replace all your fingers with penis clones and be Edward Penishands

“Grown without the nueral components for awareness, thought or pain”
Somehow I doubt that
No brain no pain
Gaza has a ton. ruzzia too.
I think you meant…
Ahem
Banger book. Been one of my favorites since I was a kid
I don’t see a problem with this.
