You can eat anything that comes out of your own or anyone else’s body to increase your power level.
Newborn baby girls can experience a phenomenon called “false menses” or “mini-periods” due to a sudden drop in maternal estrogen after birth, causing slight vaginal bleeding or a blood-tinged discharge that typically lasts only a few days.
And both boys and girls often have a redish discolouration in their nappies initially - aka brickdust deposit. Totally benign almost all of the times, but a lot of parents are shocked.
Your gut biome is the only way you can digest leafy things. Without them most of it would just stay in there, or go right through you.
I don’t mind that, my gut biome can go ahead and digest food for me. It’s free labor!
As an IBS sufferer, I’m here to tell you, it ain’t free.
I let fire do most of my digestion for me.

Your gut biome is how you digest everything
I think the point being made was that the enzyme used to break down cellulose is only made by bacteria, whereas the enzymes used to break down carbs, fats, and proteins are produced by the pancreas. Digestion is complicated though, the teeth and or stomach acid are also digesting in a way so it’s all an oversimplification
Your bones are wet
It’s worse. Your bones have blood vessels going in and out of them.
I agree that’s way worse
That sounds delicious actually.
I love a wet bone

I know that’s a little bit gross, but it would be way worse if your bones were dry.
Penises.
People are very aware of those. Many have them, and many of those who have them are all too willing to share them.
Yeah, but have you considered; penises?
Teeth, or rather where they meet your skull and jaw, are technically classified as a kind of joint!
Surprisingly not in this thread: all the horrible things pregnancy can do.
I’m fairly certain that if women would get a full disclaimer with all the nasty side effects a pregnancy comes with, they’d give it a second thought… On the other hand, some women insist on having a second baby… And then a third… And a fourth…
Sometimes they don’t get the really horrible effects, or at least not the first couple of times.
I was told all the things that could go wrong when I was a kid, and then my mother was all, why not have a kid, and I was just
“CAUSE IT’S A NIGHTMARE???” lol
They literally have hormons to forget the worst of birth.
I learned this from Scrubs and cited it to my wife just yesterday!
I’ve heard it from friends. They got the freshly newborn baby in there arms and immediately feel like they wanna do this again.
I don’t wanna do it again because I used up all my luck with the awesome kid I already got.
Oh, birth isn’t always the worst of it.
Co-signing on their house loan, THAT’S the worst part.
I remember I asked my husband in all seriousness to please kill me. Not in the heat of the moment, I actually meant it.
I don’t remember the pain. I guess it must have been bad but I cannot even imagine what it felt like or where it was located.
A lot of poop is dead bacteria by volume.
Cool call me death pooper
Of all of the cells in your body, less than 45% of them are human. The majority are microorganisms designed to work with your gross-ass self for similarly gross organic meat-bag processes.
how much by mass?
I actually looked this up just for you. Surprisingly low at .3%! While the number of cells are roughly halfish each human and non human, the non human cells weigh so little they only account for around 200 grams of actual weight. Learned something new myself there.
Wow! I wouldn’t have expected anywhere near that disparity!
Edit: and thanks for taking the trouble to look it up, too. How did you find that? Was it written somewhere or did you have to do a calculation?
What counts as in my body?
In yo ass
Topologically, a human gastrointestinal tract is outside of the body.
ear wax tastes slightly bitter.
There are more cells in your body that aren’t you, than are.
The count of bacterial cells in your gut, on your skin etc is higher than the number of your own cells.
A ratio of 3:1 to 1.3:1
I’ve always found this interesting. Human beings (or any vertebrates I suppose) are really more of a colony than a single being. And it’s not just a technicality, it’s meaningful. Much of that colony interacts with your nervous system and affects your moods and behavior. You think you have total control of your mind, but you would think and act differently with a different balance of gut bacteria. Chew on that for a while…
This is one of the scientific plot holes in The Fly. Or at least the 1980s version. The head-swap version has other problems.
I think one’s microbiome has more mass than one’s brain too. So… who is really doing the thinking?
My brain hasn’t that’s for sure
They aren’t me genetically, but I still need them to live. So really I still feel that it’s a part of me.
Like guide dogs!
Men too can produce milk.
We know, but we call it milk as a joke. It’s not actually milk.
I have nipples, Greg
Can you milk me?
Actually it is true
Certain psychiatric medicines that influence hormones does that - even in malesI love you
No way ! how do I do that ??
Sometimes regular stimulation is enough. I saw one case where a man took on an orphaned infant where there wasn’t even any animal milk available to hack together formula, and the starving infant attempting to get milk out of his nipple every hour for multiple days was enough to get the one breast to start making milk, and the infant lived thanks to it.
The need for suckling to stimulate milk production is a catch-22 for women who don’t make enough milk. They have to supplement with formula to prevent “failure to thrive”, but the infant spending some of its sucking time on a bottle instead of a breast reduces their supply even more, so then they have to feed even more formula… There are devices that run a tube to the nipple so the infant can get formula from the tube while at the same time stimulating breast milk production, and they work, but look like a huge pain.
Usually with hormone therapy
okk lets gooooooo
Take six mg estradiol enanthate injections weekly for two years. Follow up with domperidone-based lactation induction. Supplementing a testosterone blocker would also be useful.
Warning, this is essentially going on the full hormone therapy trans women go on. You can induce lactation, but it requires being hormonally female for an extended period of time. Look up the effects of mtf hormone therapy, as you would be getting all of them. Also the breast growth is permanent. You have been warned.
I am not genuinely contemplating doing the hormone therapy, the above comment was in jest. However that is very cool to learn about. I had no idea breast development was a one-way road. These are questions I never thought to ask. Thanks for sharing
well yeah but you have to have a baby first.
Like Arnold Schwartzeneggar!
Why is that disgusting?
Because “Father’s Milk” hits different.
Don’t many things need to go wrong during fetal development for that? The mammary tissue is usually completely destroyed by birth in men.
I’m squeezing like hell and it isn’t working.
You have mites living in your eyelashes.
I wonder what types of parasites dinosaurs had. Guess we’ll never know
I’m locked in here with them. They’re locked in here with me!
You don’t know me
Human face pores are home to tiny, microscopic mites called Demodex.
They are most active at night, when they leave their follicles to mate on the face and then return to find a new follicle.
Almost everyone has them. So there are tiny arachnids having sex on your face every night.
I thought everyone had them. If you didn’t, wouldn’t your hair follicles get clogged and gross?
So they skeet and yeet on your face.
They don’t poop from what I recall.
But they don’t go anywhere when they die so you are covered with poop balloon corpses.
In individuel numbers, how much do you think we’re talking here? 1 per follicle, what would that be couple 10k? More? Do they live peacefully with eyebrow mites or is there a nightly war at the edge?
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Isn’t it also an illness dogs can have? I remember a stray I adopted had to get treated for it.
It’s not an illness. In most cases they are completely harmless and unavoidable, you get them from your mom as a baby and carry them your whole life. Most people have them. A minority of people can have some skin condition due to them, but it’s quite rare. And yes dogs carry them too, but not an issue for them either.
Op said gross or disgusting. That sounds awesome
Would that mean that I’m not a virgin, having been in multiple orgies?
“In” feels like the wrong preposition here, since the creatures involved are all on the same side of you. Next to? It’s more like you’re a room or two away from an orgy and the sound doesn’t really carry.
You can develop a rectourinal fistula and end up pissing shit
One hole for everything! A pseudo-cloaca :3
This is the first comment on my post that actually makes me feel uncomfortable.
A rectovaginal fistula is fun too. Imagine having a mix of period blood and poop exiting your vagina.
Yeah. And it’s a huge problem in the developing world.
A gynaecologist I used to work with from time to time dedicated her whole retirement to it - she operated hundred of cases per year until she physically could not do it anymore,then she spent another two years teaching in various places until she could no longer do that anymore as well. (By then she was well into her 80ies). She was a saint basically, but without the whole Christian stuff (she had a massive hatred for the church and especially mother Theresa)
Imma have to tell you to stop doing everything you’re doing immediately.
