You can also see this at work with Parmenides or Heraclitus agonizing over how to explain the idea of rational or logical force in making one accept an idea as true, or Plato and Aristotle needing to borrow words to explain the concept of an underlying matter(Plato used a word for wax as a receptacle of an impression, and Aristotle used a word for wood)
i feel like the Greek attempt at describing it is more communicative, weirdly
i mean conceptually a skeleton is just a thing, it's part of the body but it's not a body per se, it feels 'safe', *i'm* not a skeleton
whereas if you start talking about what a skeleton actually *is*, as in, under what circumstances you'd see a skeleton IRL, you can't really do that without rubbing your readers' noses in their own mortality
wouldn't it be funny if in some distant future, the 'birthday skeleton' has become sufficiently established as a tradition that cute skeleton mascots bearing gifts appear alongside the Easter bunny and the tooth fairy in children's lore?

I mean something like that has kind of happened in Mexico
the idea of a skeleton also has practical implications
"skeleton" brings to mind a collection of bones that have been bleached, cleaned heavily, and probably attached to one another by added metal or plastic. a museum piece.

true, but that is the day of the dead, so not quite such a non-sequitur

You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
still loving that Maud Pie is studying to get a "rocktorate in rock science"

It feels weird that I am doing drug research for Perfectly Legal Reasons, and yet I feel like someone is going to go through my browser history and see all my research.
would it be super scummy and make people hate me if I asked Centy to sticky a thread with like my Bandcamp or something on it so people could buy my stuff if they wanted to?

This is some SJW-type stuff but I really wish WNND would stop playing that transphobic "Funky Cold Medina" song all the time.
I don't even mind the song in and of itself--it's a product of a time when "trans woman as punchline" was still acceptable, so I can't be too mad that it exists--but they just keep playing it as if there's nothing wrong with it. :|

Then again, the Romans had multiple words for oral sex, so priorities.

a natural skeleton has rot or meat
Because he weighed skeletons.

So I could raise the money, I mean.
Ugh.
And your tunes are sick! So it'd be a win for the buyer as well. (I will try to slide some your way once money is a Thing I possess.)
