As toxins invade environments where small animals dwell, and as those animals are bio-engineered to be smarter, you're going to see a booming market in safety gear for tiny creatures who want to stay pert for their Cute Overload closeup. I predict a run on artist Bill Burns' rubberized gas masks. They're made for any creature with a snout who is about the size of a possum or raccoon. Burns has got a whole line of safety gear for the post-apocalyptic Cheezburger set, including safety goggles and biohazard suits in diminutive sizes.
I've got to hand it to the folks at io9: they come up with some fantastic oddities.
Yay thanks! We love your blog and read it all the time.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Charlie! Keep up the good work at io9!
ReplyDeleteAnd I can imagine a niche market for training the raccoons in how to use these gas masks....
