Lyrics

How can you say what our best interests are?

What are you trying to say, we're not adapted to our environment?
When we went through your Cambrian Explosion?
We learned to breath your oxygen,
We climbed up your beaches and evolved lungs and thumbs and brains and bonded to each other in hunter-forager bands?!
So how can you say we're not adapted?

They say they're gonna fix our government
Alleviate our pain and our suffering
But by the time they fix the species
The moon may be eclipsed by feces

We're adapting—! — [Maladaption!]
You're the one who's been snapping — [Maladaption!]
You're driving us crazy — [Maladaption!]
God stuck us in an incubator
Said "Good luck maybe see ya later"
Gave us the needed genetic engineering
To protect us from excessive cheering — Ourseloves

It doesn't matter, we'll probably be out-competed by parasitic wasps and mind-control fungus, anyway

Fragments

According to an APTO preliminary findings report dated 21 January 2021, only portions of Maladaptionalized have been recorded and decrypted. Of that data which has been decrypted, some fragments lack stoch-prob algorithms and are neither verifiable nor sequenceable, absent further analysis.

Example:

"... all we wanted was a peptide bond ... just one peptide bond ..."

Truth? It's not suffering at all— more of a religious exaltation.

Okay, here we go, something like this —
