Boston Scientific already owns my body (heart implants). So I guess I’m on the way to Cyborg City.
It’s not nice to fool with mother nature.
H.P. Lovecraft described these in his ‘Mountains of Madness’ novella. ‘Shuggoths” I think he called them. Giant blobs of flesh able to assume any shape. Used as manual labor by the “Old Ones’ who made them.
Pretty sure they rose up and squished their masters.
I think the driving force behind this is cyborg sexbots, not replacement organs.
