Real talk I'm fine with hurting crabs for our own means. Straight up.

Whoa! That's some Human Supremacist talk there.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Hell yeah. Whole point is to get the species off the rock, then out of the meat suit

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Not necessarily in that order

Pretty sure I played a horror game with that concept once... SOMA?

Real talk I’m fine with hurting other living beings that aren’t me for my own means. Straight up.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's literally life. Unless you're a plant, you're killing things to eat.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And if you’re a plant, either you’re eating things that were already killed and/or outright killing other plants for their blood or to take their sunlight. And that’s if you don’t mention carnivorous plants which, ik eat animals

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Kinda? I think it's more accurate to say that the nutrients they need from the soil are from decomposed dead things. Competition for sunlight is a real thing, but I'm not sure if that counts. I suppose it does, since it's all about survival. Same would go for species that have fights with themselves.

I know it sucks, but they play an invaluable role in modern medicine, I hope that we can find an alternative to using them, but AFAIK there is nothing that works in the same manner yet.

discovered that a molecule in LAL called factor C was responsible for its clotting action. Researchers genetically modified the guts of insects—who belong to the same phylum as horseshoe

Oh that is excellent news! I was unaware!

They're chelicerates though, not crustaceans. But then again, apparently everything evolves into crabs anyway

Does that mean I can become a crab too?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Get to walking sideways and eating mud, friend!
