It reminds me of that old joke of the 2 scientists studying a fly.
Scientist 1: Fly, fly! Scientist 2: When fly has two wings fly flies 2 feet.
Scientist 1: pulls off one wing and says Fly, Fly! Scientist 2: When fly has 1 wing, fly flies 1 foot
Scientist 1: pulls off the other wing and says, Fly, fly!. Nothing happens Scientist 1 Fly, Fly! Nothing happens Scientist 1 showing frustration> FLY! FLY! Scientist 2: When fly has no wings, fly becomes deaf.
Bad-dum!

I like this. First time hearing it.
-
That's good, 'cause the fly can't.

Whew, hopefully he'll forget he's supposed to track me till the end of time
-
Sorry bucko, it was a decoy snail

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

That's incredible, I was aware of the tileman mode plug in, but this is inspired.

Scientists: No guys seriously what have we done I can't remember
-
Oh no, they fried the part of their brain that could tell the difference between snails and humans!
-
-
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Snail
-
Finally! A therapy to make me forget that movie!
-
But sunshine is bad for snails! Noooooooooo!
-
-
Finally I can replay Outer Wilds.
-
Yes. Good god yes. Was disappointed by the dlc though unfortunately. I want to like it but I just don’t.
But also replay Inscryption
-
It honestly was too scary for me. I don’t do horror games. The angler fish in the main game was almost too much for me
-
-
EXACTLY, I feel the same
-
I can play Omori without having been spoiled!
-
Such a great game. I'd also play through Undertale again with this
-
-
I think the scientists are more worried about why the snail's head is the size of a human rather than the memory loss...
-
-
Every time I walk into another room.
-
Well the scientists must be zapping me a lot in that case.

It's probably at your request, to help you get rid of a horrible / painful memory (comedy skit).

Pfft this guy doesn't know how to see the invisible whales 🙄
-
Chemtrails are real but the chemicals are usually amnestics

decoy snail
-
Oh no the real one escaped
-
Probably a racing snail.

Humans experimenting on weaker animals has peak fashist vibes.
"bUt iTs oNLy a SnAiL" yeah and before anything happens on humand they will experiment on mammals.

"Hey guys... Is it fascist to want to learn more about the reality we find ourselves in?"
-
There was a period during the Chinese Communist revolution that basically labeled a lot of modern science as capitalist propaganda.
There's a book series that starts with that event, and is the inciting event that caused a group of scientists to basically invite a hostile race of aliens to earth to wipe out and rebuild society.
I forget the name, it's by Cixin Liu
Edit: The Three Body Problem is the first book

-
last step in trials is poor people.
-
-
I can give snails brain (ganglia?) damage too, you're not that special, scientists.
-
Small
knowknew too much. -
Is this true?
-
Yeah, but it's 5 years old.
-
-
My question is, how do they know what a snail is thinking or remembers? Last I knew snails didn’t talk.
-
Probably something like the snail learned to find food in a certain place, then they were able to make it forget such that it would search randomly instead of going to the place it had learned.

This is a useful technology....for tyrants.
Potential PTSD treatment. I think this is the plot to a movie or book though, where soldiers are taken advantage of.
There was definitely a Black Mirror about it.
Sidenote: It's weird to me that more people don't talk about the inevitability of that one with the soldiers with cybernetic HUD implants that, shocking twist later, can make civilians look like monsters to be purged.
On the other hand, why bother when the Boston Dynamics murderbots are probably cheaper?
Universal Soldier?
I think I read the book you mention! I thought about it recently but could not remember the name
I agree. But I also wouldn't mind forgetting one or two things. However, I've also watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, so I know it ends with me having perpetual dementia-like fever dreams.
