We should epigenetically or genetically alter honey bees so they don't have programmed cell death and they don't work so hard they die, so we can extend the worker lives up until 6 months or maybe even a year.
Why? Because they are cute and cool and it is sad they have to die so quickly when really they don't need to, there's nothing making them die other than like epigenetic life regimenting stuff that triggers cell death. Unlike other insects they can survive the winter easily so it wouldn't even be messing stuff up tbh. Who wants to go do this with me we will use Lysenkoist science or maybe capitalist science if that doesn't work to help the bees out.
At the very least we'd figure out why they do that if it goes wrong, and if nothing goes wrong then we'd have more bees around potentially, I miss seening bees as often as I did growing up .
>>716770We should genetically alter all animals to be immortal and immune to suffering, and also it should be illegal to eat meat.
What would they do in the winter? They would die of boredom.
give metal sentience
give trees voices
