Many moons have set since the world has turned into a giant petri dish. If this is some space giant’s biology project, I would like to hope he or she is not a clumsy twat accidentally knocking over the project, as I would. I say that because I think whoever observes our little ecosystem has enough to discover without causing gravitational shocks to our fragile world.
Imagine looking through your microscope in high school and you could have seen much more than little one-celled organisms performing mitosis. That’s already impressive, but I’m sure you wouldn’t have dropped the class so quickly if those little cells put on a proper show. For example, turning against one another due to membrane differences, violating colour coded cell fusion laws, or having meiosis rich areas on the little dish invade cells that couldn’t multiply quick enough.
Or worse, now you drop a new organism in the mix. A two-celled organism that eats the single-celled organisms for breakfast. The internal quarrels still exist, but new external threats make existence even more dramatic than ever before. It’s like your favourite television series has spun out of control. This is a show you cannot miss, and before you know it, you major in biology.
You’re so excited, you forget to put on your face mask upon exiting the school building and immediately a group of older children beats the living shit out of you. Sadly, because your skin has the wrong colour the police charge you with a made-up crime instead.
On second thought, knock us over, space giant!
