    Now I lay me down to bed
    Darkness won’t engulf my head
    I can see by infrared
    How I hate the night

  Glad i’m not. Can you imagine the kind of dumb social edict that would have built up around that?

  Retail Employee, on their 10th day in a row with no overtime because the schedule got thrown together at the last minute again: [briefly shining above the infrared before fading back again] Hello sir, is there anything I can help you with today?

  Customer [so angry he’s strobing] How dare you! It’s bad customer service to greet me with such pitiful luminescence! I’ve never been so insulted! Where is your manager?

    Today we are not only glowing in our skins in our Walmart team Bio-Blue^Tm^ tones, but with excitement for our performance reviews! Anyone glowing out of sync or the wrong will placed on our Glow Up Blue Enthusiasm Enrichment Course.

    Anyone spotted feeling red will be written up. Remember to keep your home colors home.

    Humans are, it’s just very dim

    There’s also probably be luminescence-based racism since different people would shine with a slightly different color.

    Fascinating. But isn’t this akin to stripes on a tiger or zebra, just visibly in a different electromagnetic spectrum?

    Whereas bioluminescence involves producing/emitting of light like fireflies.

    Total jackass genie move. Shoulda said you wanted to be bioluminescent in the spectrum visible to humans!

  As someone that struggles to sleep in a room with any light; this sounds awful.

  • samus12345@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Same. Especially if your eyelids are bioluminescent!

  Wasn’t a crispr kit only a few hundred euros?

  source
• insurgentrat@hexbear.net ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  You can just mail order custom crispr sequences and genes. Is it lack of knowledge or lack of fortitude that stops you?

  • Boomkop3@reddthat.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    I wonder if anyone used these yet to turn down their myostatin or something

  You are, just not in the part of the spectrum visible to humans

  I remember a Star Trek Voyager episode where Ensign Kim had sex with an alien and began to glow. If you see someone glow, they’ve been canoodling with ET.
