So, lemme get this straight: first they ache like bastards, and now they also induce anxiety. I say we boycott bones.

It turns out jellyfish have been the ideal species the whole time.

No brains to worry with, no bones to hurt or cause anxiety.

Plus, functional immortality outside of being eaten. And who the heck wants to eat jellyfish. Seems like a sweet gig.

Turtles eat jellyfish. And so do the Chinese. That immorality be tasty.

I wanna be a shark. Only bones are the teeth and THEY ARE REPLACEABLE

[-] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago

Why don’t we get replaceable teeth?

We have the free trial of replaceable teeth. The first replacement is free, after that it gets expensive.

Yes! Abolish skeletons! Let’s become Jellyfish.
