I wonder what it feels like to be a brain in a goo sac

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 14 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I mean, that's pretty much what we are.

A brain driving a meat puppet.

So... what does the thinking?

You're not understanding, are you? You're refusing to deal with what I'm telling you. The brain does the thinking. The meat.

Eat the brains, gain the knowledge!

High in Omega 3!

Hey now... Modern science has grown to where we now understand that we are an entire nervous system driving a meat puppet.

They’re made out of meat?!

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, thinking meat!

When they communicate they do it by flapping pieces of meat!

That’s disgusting!
