“When they made love / Geryon liked to touch in slow succession each of the bones of Herakles' back (...) / from the base of the neck / to the end of the spine which he can cause to shiver like a root in the rain" Autobiography of Red / Anne Carson 🖤

Masaaki Miyazawa - Once Upon a White Night, 1981


Genetic Future


"The 1982 book The Kids’ Whole Future Catalog imagined what the world of genetic engineering might mean to the people, plants and animals of the 21st century. The book presented genetic engineering as a natural progression in the course of human history, pointing out that people have been messing with plants and animals for thousands of years in an effort to produce more disease-resistant crops and heartier livestock. The book explains that until relatively recently “it has been possible to cross only species that are very similar. For instance, a mare and a donkey can be crossbred to get a mule, but the reproductive cells of a horse and a dog will not unite.” But apparently some time in the near future (when scientists finally get their act together), humans will know the majesty that is a horse/dog hybrid".
