Cryonics T-Shirt: Keep cool. Even when you're DEAD.

There might be more M&M Shirts in the next future. It is time for us to spread our ideas. Don't get me wrong, I hate everything that is pop-culture and I don't even like commercialism, but I believe there is a chance for Immortalism to become a worldwide Scene that could be large enough for significant media attention. We have a chance to change the whole moral view which is surpressing Sciences today.

And fuck smartphones. When I am reading the U.S. Google News on technology it is all about fucking smartphones. This is pissing me off! Smartphones are all in all great but there could be so many things more that could get us closer to our personal paradises. We should not give up hope for Immortality - the Human Right that You end Your Life when YOU THINK YOUR FUCKING LIVE SHOULD END. So it is not about buying a T-Shirt. It is about sending a message.
