Autophagy, from the Greek for 'self-eating', is an essential process that isolates and recycles cellular components under conditions of stress or when resources are limited. Scientists have now reconstructed the first steps in the formation of autophagosomes. They show that tiny vesicles loaded with the protein Atg9 act as the seed from which the autophagosome emerges.

Eating.

Eating things.

But where does your body end?

We only believe that it does.

So that we can eat.

And stand happy.

Believing that we eat something else.

Than our self…

Think.

Why would anything else taste good?

Give me that steak.

Delicious isn’t it?

Don’t you understand?

You feel so good eating it…

Only because you eat yourself.

Tautologies.

The only possible truth.

Autophagy.

The only possible way of cooking…

Come.

Fry those eggs.

Are you afraid of yourself?

(I am afraid of death)

Oh, it tastes so good…
