What do you mean "They’ll be doing this" - I thought they already are! ;-)

Of course, everything we eat is already recycled from shit; it’s just that it’s usually obscured by some additional steps:

Humans -> shit -> fertilizer -> plants -> animals -> meat -> humans.

Granted, human excrement is less used for fertilizer these days. So we add in a few more steps…

This is why I laugh at people who are grossed out by hearing that, for example, astronauts on the ISS have to drink water reclaimed from urine. What do you think you’re drinking?

BTW, this is me being annoying commenter type #5.

That is gross! I wonder how long it takes the audience to realise it’s a joke.

All I can think of is how bad that 3D rendering looks….. looks down right ancient.
