Haven’t done tags today yet but I have read a lot about exactly how sweaty a prosthetic limb makes your residual limb so that’s good to know

BOY I BET

The most DISGUSTING thing about having one leg is no...
This man just, tellin’ it like it is LMAO
boodle boy
Just, wearing something that necessitates a completely airtight seal for an extended period of time (just one of a hundred reasons people with prosthetic limbs don’t wear them long periods generally)

Another interesting fun fact too is that biologically, our hands play a massive role in thermoregulation in the body, and losing even one makes it that much harder to regulate one’s one body temperature!
boodle boy
Warming up and cooling down
🐅 its harry
huh! i never thought about that

like it seems obvious on reflection but
boodle boy
RIGHT

Posture is pretty affected by arm loss as well, iirc– it's something we think would be impacted by the loss of a leg & how we stand, but

I recall reading about some nifty arm prosthetic advancements that helped keep the spine from the strain

now I wonder how that translates to fictional genetically enhanced characters since yzak is joining the club after this mission (""""""""mission")

: that’s very interesting too! It’s such an on going branch of medicine, there’s always new stuf being discovered and studied

yeah!

Ugh “here smell it” really is this teen’s vibe
fermentingbones
Disgusting
fermentingbones
I love him
beware the ides
my thinly related contribution to the subject at hand is the oldest known prosthetic is a toe from ancient Egypt 
🐅 its harry
the real question is would jake smell it
boodle boy
I’m saying absolutely yes
boodle boy
He’s a dog
fermentingbones
Dude duh.
boodle boy
He’d be like “smells cool, man”
fermentingbones
Dogs love gross smells. Gross is just a synonym for interesting.
fermentingbones
Also lbr, he definitely is smelling Finn constantly. Like, without trying. Across the ship.
fermentingbones
He can smell all of you without trying
boodle boy
A constant smell map of the whole crew
fermentingbones
You wanna know where someone is, just ask the dog and he’ll point
boodle boy
Also who they’ve been hanging out with
boodle boy
Also interesting, phantom pain stuff, which is a VERY fascinating physiological thing (proprioception in general is a very complex, extremely fascinating thing imo) and extremely common, especially for the first several years
boodle boy
Which is like, largely just your brain sending signals to a limb that isn’t there and getting no feedback and deciding that it’s paralyzed or in danger
boodle boy
Which could be excruciating pain, or just like, weird feelings, or like....itching but you can’t scratch it because its not there.
boodle boy
And i guess a easy and common line of “treatment” is just, tricking your brain with a mirror into thinking you have your missing limb which is very funny.

(ANOTHER fun fact is that this works in reverse....you can trick someone with two hands into thinking a fake hand is their own and can “feel” sensation; the famous rubber hand illusion)
boodle boy
Brains are crazy
