    I forgot what this conversation is about and I don’t feel like backtracking. All I know now is that end-stage ligma is a mouth-less person who’s craving ice cream.

      I was making a reference to to Harlan Ellison’s I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream in which characters are kept alive and tortured perpetually. In the end one character takes one for the team, killing the others to end their suffering, and as punishment is reduced to a blob with no limbs or mouth so they can’t harm themselves.

      but also I really wanted ice cream

      It’s about Cyberpunk dystopia. We are going to live under the worst people imaginable, and I imagine, they want the ultimate trill of inflicting eternal, maximum suffering on helpless, innocent individuals.
