She does have a point. We should replace our weak and ugly flesh with strong steel and blessed machine.

[–] brap@lemmy.world 32 points 3 days ago

The omnissiah approves.

[–] ThePyroPython@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

From the moment I understood the weaknesses of my flesh, it disgusted me!

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

A steel skeliton. Like Wolferine! We're gonna be X-Men!!! But....just the one. Just Wolferine. Unless any extremely buff guys want to dress like a big blue furry guy.

........yeah, I just heard it as I said it. Someone out there is ABSOLUTELY already doing that, unrelated to this plan.

Biology in general is disgusting. Eating is gross, its just a weird process if you think about it, and especially weird that so much of our lives are dedicated to it. Waste removal is extra gross. Reproduction is.. not even gunna go there but it’s gross, and childbirth is so much worse. Mouths are gross, our protruding luxury bones are gross, tongues are just tiny tentacles, and thats gross. Also theres just -so much hair- which is, you guessed it, gross.

Guts are gross. I know we aren't meant to survive disemboweling, but we do it routinely now to deliver babies, and do they put your intestines back where they belong? Hell no! They just shove that shit back in there and let it sort itself out.

And then we move away from humans and other animals lick themselves to get clean which is gross. They eat poop, sometimes directly from a rectum (theirs or not), which is gross.

Diseases are gross, auto-immune issues are gross..

Man.

I find it best to just not really spend a lot of time thinking about the practicalities of biology. I mean, I have done the thinking, and imho, its not really worth it. It just makes everything seem gross, genuinely. Like really, stop to think about just hair growth, a relatively benign fact of biology. Some small thing starts growing under your skin at a bud point, then erupts through your protective skin layer, and just keeps growing.. until its multiple feet long, in some cases (thank fuck leg, armpit, and genital hair stops growing at inches instead of feet). Just gross.

There are Buddhist meditations that are more or less exactly this post.

Dis-enchants sexuality, basically.

[–] JennaR8r@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 days ago (3 children)

That's why humans also have unexplainable biological drive to find things inexplicably attractive about each other. That raw rugged attraction to someone who turns you on. This is nature's aphrodisiac.

OTOH I generally agree with you & I lose attraction for anyone as soon as I smell any normal human foul odor emanating from any of their numerous orifices, or see something gross about them. This is nature's birth control.

Heh, maybe thats why I find humans so gross. I have absolute zero sex drive (ace/aro), so no instinctual compulsion to overlook how gross humans are.

damn like... i get it and the meme's not wrong, but i think a lot of it is so cool. how the circulatory system went (evolutionarily) from being "just squirt blood on all the organs" to the elegant, efficient tube-based system we have. like, it's kind of insane we have tubes routing blood to our entire body, everything in it, and coming back to a central point

or how there are so many parts of our body that just have a natural microbiome that we coexist with. like we have our own little slice of like... world, inside us

(poop is kinda gross tho, i can't lie)

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 27 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Humans would be grosser without skeletons.

[–] FosterMolasses@leminal.space 6 points 2 days ago

Skeletons are the least gross part tbh. I used to have a skeleton as my pfp, and also because it's the closest I imagine getting to genderneutral euphoria lmao

Let me out of this meat cage 🍖

Meat donut. They're made out of meat.

There is a big wet muscle squooshing away in the middle of your chest. All the time it is just in there, gooey and wet, writhing around making blood move around.

If it stops doing the mushing with the wet sloppy stuff, you die.

I'll bet if it were out in the open it would sound like a toddler eating Mac and cheese by chewing with an open mouth.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.cafe 13 points 3 days ago

We're just a coiled tube, surrounded by a protective sustainment system, that requires constant maintenance.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 3 points 2 days ago

Don't get me started on all the different revolting fluids.

[–] redlemace@lemmy.world 16 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You only need to look up how much hair and skin we loose every day to know she's right

[–] BagOfHeavyStones@piefed.social 5 points 3 days ago (3 children)

My steering wheel has a 2mm deep layer of dead skin on the top half for some reason.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 8 points 3 days ago

The reason is because you aren't cleaning it.

[–] autriyo@feddit.org 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The reason is probably you. Or whoever else drives the car :D

Engineers should develop a self cleaning steering wheel.

[–] human@slrpnk.net 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

And a steering wheel that doesn't fly out the window while I'm driving

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Down with body positivity, up with egalitarian body negativity!

You are 35-140kg of under refrigerated self heating meat. You have been out and thawed but not properly dehydrated for decades. You are disgusting.

[–] Phantaloons@piefed.zip 2 points 2 days ago

I am weird therefore I am.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Humans are disgusting

Mmm, oh yeeesssss 🫠

Do you even know how much sticky red liquid is in there, which you can't get out of your carpet

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago

We are also smelly cause we sweat but don’t a have great sense of smell so our dogs and cats probably know a lot about us through that without us knowing

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 days ago

Noses are so ugly and they're right in the middle of the face. Very hard to avoid looking at those ugly things.

[–] FelixCress@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I do prefer you to have holes.
