It turns out jellyfish have been the ideal species the whole time.
No brains to worry with, no bones to hurt or cause anxiety.

Crabs know what’s up too, that’s why they wear their skeleton as an armor. Can’t hurt you if it’s outside.

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

Take ‘em out and throw ‘em away. What use could they possibly be?
buttnugget@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Yes! Abolish skeletons! Let’s become Jellyfish.

Wait, what? So, is this part of lifting weights?
Our skeleton is much more than a rigid scaffold for the body, says geneticist Gérard Karsenty of Columbia University. Our bones secrete a protein called osteocalcin, discovered in the 1970s, that rebuilds the skeleton. In 2007, Karsenty and colleagues discovered that this protein acts as a hormone to keep blood sugar levels in check and burn fat. Later, his group showed that the hormone is important for maintaining brain function and physical fitness, restoring memory in aged mice and boosting performance during exercise in old mice and people. The findings led Karsenty to hypothesize that animals evolved bony skeletons to escape danger.

Yes, this is entry level anatomy and physiology knowledge these days.
Daily exercise is important.

The hormone that your bone-making cells secrete to say “bone foundation is laid, bring the concrete” was hijacked by the brain through evolution god knows how many years ago to simulate the “we need to fucking go” thought and you call that entry level??

Skeletanic Panic!

Delightful, Yeah it makes sense if you get close to having your bones crack, they’re going to be unhappy with you and make you a bit more panaroid of getting hits in the bones !

So that's what bone hurting juice is. It's hurting juice that comes from your bones.
davidgro@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Oof ouch my bones [are hurting me]!
M137@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Well, we now know it’s actually bone panic juice. They were close with the naming, but not all the way there.
DeathsEmbrace@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Panic can cause physical pain. We’re right back to bone hurting juice.
