You think that’s bad, wait fifty years for when humans figure out how to create uplifted species like in Traveller.

In the roleplaying game Traveller (a sci-fi rpg from 1977, now in its 5th or 7th edition depending on how you count), humans have ‘uplifted’ various animal species, using genetic engineering to give them intelligence equal to humans and language capabilities.

Look at the cover to this uplift sourcebook from Clement Sector (a spin-off RPG from Traveller) and tell me that people wouldn’t try fucking these things.

I just don’t like kids. The fun parts are fun but I’m not responsible enough, organized enough, or willing to deal with the complexities of raising a child. Also they’re so expensive. I always think about the Wanda Sykes bit where a friend asks her “are you excited to go to Jamaica” and she grabs her kid and turns him around and says “smile Jimmy! Show them Jamaica!” bc she had to buy him braces

Also having kids fundamentally changes your relationship with your partner and makes it about the kids when I’d rather be with someone and have it be about me and him yknow

I mean if that’s their machinations I’m not sure they realize that it probably won’t be as good as they think it’ll be. Just like life.
