Older than my teeth, but younger than my tongue.

Younger than your tongue? How do you manage that? Relativistic time dilation or something?

[-] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 months ago

The human tongue is one of the first things to form, preceding the brain.

Is it really? That's interesting.

Fun fact, all humans (most vertebrates, IIRC?) develop the tissue that forms their two primary sphincters before pretty much anything else — and the mouth is second in that process. Every single one of us is an asshole first. 🖖🏽

Feeling depressed? Lost? Lacking identity? Go back to your roots. Be an asshole.

Is your friend an asshole? Give them time. They'll grow into a baby.

We were all assholes once. But with diligence, and nurture, you too can grow into living, breathing, people. Thank you class of '41, and I look forward to seeing you after you're all born.

Should I ADHDad some more? 🤣

Could interpret 'tongue' in the linguistic sense.
