Hey good for them, always good to have a spare, one penis for work and save one penis for art.

@rubinjoni
Oh hey what's up the best trans band name of all time

@jonny Rocky bottom?

@rubinjoni
This is so AWESOME thank you. A creature that cleans itself by separating its head from its body and completely regenerating a new body is exactly what I needed.

@jonny There's a species of ape that digs up sand and puts lightning through it so that it can produce writing and the apes then believe everything the sand says.

@jonny ooh, plants are allowed? The amorphophallus titanum alternates annually between growing one huge leaf and growing one huge flower. The flower smells horrifying and can be smelled from miles away

I don't know how weird this one is but pigeons, flamingoes and emperor penguins all lactate by shedding their throat linings and regurgitating them to their children. The "milk" they make is known as crop milk.

I like imagining being in the middle of growing a huge flower and going you know what flowers are played out and the medium is stale, its time to make a big leaf.

[jonny@neuromatch.social]

@gbargoud
what the fuck

[jonny@neuromatch.social]

@astrobri.bsky.social
What on earth could that possibly feel like, if anything. Is it something where you wake up and go "goddamn my bones are small today" or is it something where you have to decide and then go hnnnnnng and start smushing them

[jonny@neuromatch.social]

@adafede
Hell yes thank you

@jonny

It's one of the things that makes pigeons thrive in cities. They can eat a diet of cigarette butts and trash and filter out the worst parts when feeding their chicks.
