Robot makers have really gotten ahead of themselves this time. There isn’t even a decent sex bot on the market and there’s already a pregnant robot. Whatever happened to letting nature take its course? Gaumard Scientific Company says that NOELLE is an “interactive model” to be used in medical schools. Is it too much to ask that they first provide us with an “interactive model” to be used in our beds? Perhaps Naomi Campbell.
Although Ryan Oakley began his career as a simple rake (drunk) he has since become Toronto’s most renowned flaneur (no car) and notorious dandy (overdresses). A misanthropic composer of psycho-geographical fictions (sci-fi), he is also a server of food, a tender of bar and a washer of dishes. While performing all these functions with efficiency and elegance (disdain and malice), he somehow finds the time to publicly criticize friends, strangers and cultural crap.
