warren's announcement came as a suprise, loving everyone knows harris/booker/beto are running despite nobody wanting them to

booker is probably bland enough to get through the primaries and eke out a win as long as he doesn’t repeat Hillary’s campaign

Beto has charisma and is probably their best bet but his policies suck

he did straight up say he supports players kneeling during football games tho which is pretty goddamn controversial in Texas.

i think about crispr a lot and how insanely its going to gently caress up the world. i dont think it can be stopped. im sure the early adopters will get some super cancers etc but for a while, i think its coming soon, for a while, the rich will actually be smarter, stronger, healthier, sexier, etc - than the poor lmfao. thats hosed up. how long do we have? i want to be dead before then, or at least make sure i have children before there are gattaca-type modded ppl pwning my kid at everything.

Smythe posted:

hasn't the consensus from people who actually use crispr basically been that we have a long, long time because individual traits like height or hair color have hundreds or thousands of genes that also determine other things so it's a giant crapshoot clusterfuck

Yeah it can be done but it would require a lot of boring, unprofitable research that's an ethical minefield even before moving on to human testing, so no private company will do it.

Last dudes who tried where that one dude in China who hosed u so hard he's gonna get his head lopped off and see morons on San Fran calling themselves "biohackers", one of who gave himself cancer lmao
