        And your bones excrete blood. Not only are your bones wet, they are oozing blood

            Depending on where we put the sense of “self” we are in our skeleton and its pissing on us. Weirdly gross to think about.

              Our “self” would be contained in the nervous system as that’s where all the thinky parts are.

              We are a nervous system driving a meaty mech suit.

                Our hydraulic system is basically red pre-piss and sometimes we need to pee to regulate it.

          If they are constantly wet, why aren’t they soggy and not maintaining our structure?

          This whole thread is disturbing to me.

            It’s only the marrow that is wet. The structural part of the bone is non-absorbent.

            The marrow can exert a lot of pressure. Many years ago, I had to have chemotherapy, and in between chemo rounds got marrow-stimulating shots to make the marrow ooze blood more and reduce the amount of time I was anemic. The associated pain in my large bones was the worst pain I have ever had.

              That’s terrifying, I hope it was worth the literal pain and that you’re doing better now!

Rules

  1. Don’t throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.


If you are here asking: “Is this a science meme?”

Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn’t need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.

Science isn’t a filing cabinet of facts, it’s a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what’s under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.

We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged, but keep it in good faith and never punch down.
