  In that case, what are we?

  Meat suits hung onto skeleton hangers, obvi.

  Or even more foundationally, proteins doing things with fatty membranes.

  Basically piles of highly organized goo.

    If you want to go deeper, we’re brains hooked up to a spinal system.

    The bones and limbs are just bonuses to move our meat vehicle. But they’re not required.

      We are beings of electric patterns, with our thoughts riding our brains the way the brain rides the body, and it begs us to wonder then: what rides us in like manner - memes & TV commercials? :-P

    They only went to the skin. The analog would be a hairless human which we mostly are anyway.

      We’re a strange kind of goblin, a puppeteer behind a screen of synthetic fabrics
