Say hello to the alien passenger in your uterus! (Screencap via)

The list of use cases for 3D printing just keeps growing. Making the rounds once more, this time courtesy of the New York Daily News, is an offering from a Japanese company that will sell proud parents-to-be a 3D printed model of their in-womb fetus. The mouse-sized creation comes encased in clear, baby-bump-shaped resin.

Should make for a great paperweight, and/or nightmare fuel for your toddler.

Says the News:

"As it is only once in a lifetime that you are pregnant with that child, we received requests for these kind of models from pregnant women who... do not want to forget the feelings and experience of that time," said Tomohiro Kinoshita of FASOTEC, the company offering the service.

A mere $1,200, the "Shape of an Angel" package gets you both the model and an additional mini that "could be a nice adornment to a mobile phone, he added." In case you wanted to give all the other mothers something else to cluck disapprovingly over.

Starting in December, the company will offer a face-only version for half the price.

Somewhere in Mississippi, a pro-life activist just dashed to his computer to order a Replicator 2.

Should've read the terms of service.

It's a common complaint amongst the Facebookerati: we enjoy interacting with friends, but hate seeing pictures of their stupid babies. The older you get, the more clogged with engagement announcements and ultrasounds and creepy family photos your Newsfeed becomes.

Lucky for you, Chris Baker, the author of The Elements of Fucking Style as well as a plethora of weird Internet properties, created a Chrome extension to tackle this first world problem. It's called Unbaby.me, and it replaces all photos of babies in your Newsfeed with "awesome stuff."

All you have to do to unbaby your Facebook is install the Chrome extension and refresh your news feed. By using a technique we can only describe as "baby detecting magic," baby pictures will be entirely replaced by those of bacon and cats.

Now if we could go the opposite route and get a "baby-fy" extension that turns all pictures ever into adorable photos of squishy-cheeked, giggly children, this Betabeat reporter would make it a point to hug the Internet.

The site—helloblueivycarter.tumblr.com—has a note welcoming visitors to the page:

"We welcome you to share in our joy. Thank you for respecting our privacy during this beautiful time in our lives."

And below it, pictures of The Bey-Z:

And here we would talk about What This Means for the blogging/social networking platform, or how fascinating it is that, instead of selling pictures of their firstborn to the highest bidder, they did the not-soulless thing by just posting them, while also being totally self-aware that the fascination with these photos by the public was inevitable, large, palpable, and probably in everyone's best interests if we just saw them and moved on, though for the record, this kind of thing will definitely engender good will towards two celebrities who already have quite a bit, and from a purely fiscal perspective, is a crazy-savvy move.

But we'll just stare at these photos instead. LOOK AT JAY-Z AND BEYONCE'S BABBYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
