My dumb ass thought this was a tooth. I was like, "why is there a brain in my tooth?", then, "haha, that's obviously intestines, dumbass", then, "wait, why would there be intestines? Or fat?"

Anyway, whatever, I'm at the food court, gonna grab some pizza for my teeth or something.

None of this fat is intramuscular and, visually, this is objectively too close to an idealized body type to have been anything but a suggestion to have a pizza.

I thought this was visceral fat?

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 21 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

On first glance, I thought so too. But it would be a truly bizarre amount of visceral fat for this body type, so it must be at least a 50/50 cutaneous/visceral split. She should be bulging far differently. But above the intestines, that’s definitely mostly visceral. The legs are the bit that made me second guess everything. The “skin” is fairly thick, but somehow the fat is substantially thinner? I don’t follow. Are they lipomas? Are these unhealthy fats? Why is subcutaneous belly fat seemingly excluded? What’s happening?

Really, it’s just a poster meant to make women feel insecure and the art is inconsistent because it doesn’t have to be consistent.

Pizza goes in, scrambled eggs come out. Explain that science nerd!!

Damn that's a pretty good explanation actually

The frog I dissected in HS science was pregnant. I hate to break it to you OP, but you're frog pregnant. This what that looks like.

Everything reminds me of her

[–] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Yeah, I'm not liking this feeling.

[–] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 days ago

Me when they a bit thick

I should eat more pizza...

I don't like the way our insides look :(

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 37 points 3 days ago (2 children)

there's even a spooky skeleton hiding in there

[–] PabloSexcrowbar@piefed.social 13 points 3 days ago

A wet one, at that.

It pops like a champagne bottle if you have strong bones and they need a biopsy done of the marrow.

At least, when they remove the core.

Also also! The really strong pain medicine stops the pain, but surprisingly, you can still feel them scraping and digging into your bone! 😃

That is one cute femboy, with an impeccable tuck.

Pineapple on pizza is basically traditional Italian food compared to a scrambled egg pizza.

[–] Venator@lemmy.nz 6 points 3 days ago (2 children)

💡 this gives me an idea 💡: scrambled egg pizza with pineapple and bacon 🤤 🍍 🥓 🥚 🍕

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago

That sounds delicious

Not to mention, all leftover pizza is good for breakfast but that would be extra good.

[–] NoForwadSlashS@piefed.social 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What you've done there is just add pineapple to a carbonara. The Italians aren't going to like this.

[–] Venator@lemmy.nz 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

except on pizza instead of pasta.

I'd say it's closer to a quiche than a carbonara.

King Willonius has a pretty hot take on this.

I know what I must do, but I don't know if I have the strength do it
