Nice meme and all but this sort of thing is happening in nature all the time. Amber can get eroded or crushed and will set things free that were trapped in there for a very long time.

Also, zombie fungus is definitely already a thing.

Since corona I know that in the event of a zombie pandemic people would knowingly spread that shit just to own the libs.

I find it fascinating that a fungus can take over an ant and use it's body to climb up on grass to get eaten. i wonder how the lived experience of that fungus changes over it's phases; does he get vision when controlling the ant? how does it feel to suddendly have legs when you are a fungus?

I’m no fun-guy, but I don’t think it works that way. When you drive a car, you don’t suddenly feel like you have wheels. I imagine a zombie fungus driving an ant is akin to a person riding a Silt Strider in Morrowind—a body horror vehicular experience.

Not the kinda cars I drive, man.

I assume not even that. Doesn’t the fungus just compel an ant to climb up high? The fungus doesn’t experience anything beyond what it normally does and the ant just gets a craving for going up.

Wait until you find out about the Soviet nuclear bunker that had a bunch of cannibal ants.
And that researchers let them out to see what would happen.
My conclusion is that polish researchers need to read and watch more trashy sci-fi.
