We’d be doing the T-pose but unironically
But if you wrapped muscles around the rigid bone frame, we could probably still wriggle and flop about. We’d find a way, it’d be okay.
I once met a person with Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva. Her bones were fusing together and over time she became more and more immobile. She’s probably dead now. I hope that answers your questions.
Capitalism in a fucking nutshell.
Bone Apple Pie
Humans are the only ape not to have a penis bone.
i feel cheated somehow.
Lol I’d be keeping a tally on how many I broke off. You don’t actually want that.

I’m glad we don’t. Makes us more flexible so we can fuck in many different positions and angles. Could you imagine doing all of doggy style and missionary and cowgirl and reverse cowgirl and riding and all the other positions with a dick that can’t bend like a willow branch? Oof
Ok I do get why we aren’t just one big bone, but why don’t our palms and feet fuse?
Because then they would be immobile without any joints between the bones. If they were one big bone, they’d essentially be a block of wood shaped like a hand/foot
Can you imagine stepping on a rock when every bone in your foot/ankle is fused?
Seems like a recipe for broken bones and never being able to run anywhere, ever.
Edit: I shouldn’t need to explain why the bones in your hands aren’t fused, assuming this initial comment isn’t a joke in the first place.
No actually this was good I forgot about rocks and that we also bend our palms to grip things. Sometimes u get a brain fart
Sometimes brain need help, no shame
Having a bone is perfectly normal for around half of humans.
For a human having two bones is not normal. Also for 3 bones, 4 bones and so on. Curiously having a few bones is normal for some animals, such as dogs.
Then it’s normal again for humans to have around 206 bones.
This is one of life’s great paradoxes.
Dog treat kinda bone
If he had just one bone then we wouldn’t rattle when we walk.
Imagine thinking we could walk with just one bone.
Pretty sure you wouldn’t be able to even imagine because nature would have wiped you out before developing that skill
I have but one bone to give!

Why do I keep seeing the stuff I see in Instagram in lemmy?
Why are you subscribed to thise one and not to other communities? Why didnt you block this one?
Is an osteoblast posting this? They hate constantly getting their hard work removed by osteoclasts.
Cellular biology always reminds me how crazy animals are; how much time and how many generations animals must have taken to get here. Its awesome there’s just cells that show up, get supplied everything they need and build mineral deposits. And a fully separate cell type to deconstruct those.
Fraggle Rock helped me understand this part of cell bio (osteoclasts/blasts).
In the underground caverns of your skeleton, a perfect symbiotic ecosystem exists between two distinct groups: the Osteoblasts (the Doozers) and the Osteoclasts (the Fraggles). Just as in Fraggle Rock, their survival depends on a continuous cycle of building and eating, ensuring the structural integrity of their world
Like the industrious Doozers, osteoblasts are obsessed with construction.
The osteoclasts are the carefree Fraggles of this system. They roam the bone surface looking for old, damaged, or unnecessary structures to “snack” on.
It’s a robust system: when a bone is fractured and not straightened before healing, it will eventually get close to the right shape.
After all, it’s not btwohundredsix.
Genius. Bumping so others see this
