Everywhere on the planet, hands have gone rubbery and soft... stretchable as latex gloves full of water. Not just people's hands: animals too--any grasping limb's affected. We mold our rubber paws idly, curiously, into strange shapes.

I meet some animal people, recently evolved beings with furry, tailed bodies, their forepaws clever but stubby-fingered. I warn them "Be sure to make opposable thumbs--good hands are a huge advantage. Be careful--we don't know when this period of fluidity will end! Don't get frozen into a bad design."

Hmm. I wonder if that applies to any of my recent changes?
