The giant cats unfazed move to the next cathedral ... that would be a very British giant cat apocalypse.

- TeMPOraL 2y agoWhy not both? I mean, the standard Skynet murder robots/nuclear apocalypse scenario is indeed boring. Skynet x AlphaFold solving protein folding and hitting us with molecular nanotech? Swarms of giant murder cats would be on the table.
