Tick Tock

In a world dominated by the short form; circuit circumventing media, "Tick Tock / tick-tick" refers to a concept that has evolved alongside the digital age, primarily influenced by the advent of fast-paced, short-form media platforms, with TikTok being a prime example. Video killed the radiostar, and this term killed tldr, replacing it as the symbol the quickening pace of both media consumption and societal change because nobody even reads anymore. Originating from the simple mimicry of a clock's sound, it now encompasses a broader range of meanings. These include the traditional notion of time's progression and urgency, as well as varied colloquial uses. In everyday language, it appears as a flexible expression, adaptable to different contexts from casual conversation to specific subcultures. The term's adaptability reflects its ability to capture the nuances of contemporary life, serving as a linguistic tool that shifts in meaning according to its use and setting.

(The way I am using it also includes all other definitions; that is, it is an open definition. If you find a contradiction please let me know.)
Let us use the platform known as tick tock.

Oh but there isn’t any time left.

Antifreeze tick gene

A gene that allows ticks to produce an antifreeze protein to resist frostbite and lower the freezing point of blood. The ticks have a protein called IAFGP that is triggered during winter months, which protects them from the cold. Mice that were injected with the protein were able to not get frostbite at subzero temperatures. They then genetically engineered the mice and breed them to have babies with the gene and they produced the antifreeze protein, IAFGP. The mice resists frostbite. One day, some humans could genetically engineer themselves with the antifreeze tick gene. That way, there's no more frostbite at subzero temperatures(below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, 0 degrees Celsius) until much lower temperatures(like 5 degrees Fahrenheit, -15 degrees Celsius or something). Eventually, the technology will be affordable to all.
Tyler: I just genetically engineered myself with the antifreeze tick gene. Now I don't have to worry about frostbite.
