Everything is just moving so fast with the metaverse, I feel like I barely have time to reiterate that I never want any part of it, ever:

On Tuesday afternoon, Meta, the company formerly known as Facebook, made a supposedly exciting announcement: a glove. But not just any glove. It's a haptic glove lined with tiny motors that use bursts of air to mimic the sense of touch, and it looks like a wearable nightmare.

...The company has apparently been working on the project for seven years, and the team that's building it is thinking at least a decade into the future. The glove is also less unnerving than the brain wave-reading bracelet Facebook announced earlier this year (the company insists that the wristband does not read your mind). But it's increasingly clear that, even with its shiny new name, Meta is struggling to make the metaverse, a virtual space where people can work and hang out via avatars, more accessible — and less creepy — to the average human being.

Yeah uh, one thing is definitely certain: This glove is not "less creepy." It's more creepy.

They took the creep factor and dialed it up to 11.

And honestly, everyone is saying this, and we can just go ahead and echo it here:

This thing totally looks like the Nintendo Power Glove.

Thanks for the glove, Facebook...err, Meta, but no thanks!
