Maybe this is kind of gross and weird, but I once had an idea for a startup involving lab grown meat where rich ghouls with too much money could pay top dollar to engage in "ethical cannibalism" by eating meat grown from the cell cultures of famous people. It would be called "Celebrity Skin", and people could order stuff like uhhhh Kobe (Bryant) steaks, and other clever puns on celebrity names that I'm not clever enough to think of.
This is clearly a joke OF COURSE but I could totally see something similar being a real thing someday.
i read a short story that involved that. its definitely gonna be a really weird bootleg thing that will pop up as a result of this tech. though people already do that shit with blood and pee so... :hillary-disgust:
stem cell research is really fascinating. i hope they refine it before im too old to get pregnant. personal dream of mine is to be the first amab trans woman to get pregnant lmao. some doc claimed its probably possible now if you had someone crazy enough to be the first person to do it and there was no legal or financial issues stopping you. im baby crazy enough for that shit
counterpoint: do you not want to taste the most forbidden meat of all? same cost per unit as other cultured meat & can be obtained with consent. And you might get free prions as a bonus!
Might not just be a dream people are already talking about it and making BS startups claiming they'll do it. One of our favorites from nonce island, Richard Dawkins, made a fuss about it a few years ago.

i think i've seen like one of those Senior Web Development Grad Projects websites that was basically this.
