I really hope they fully cooked that takoyaki I ate…
It’s called octopussying and you NORMOS and vegans STAY AWAY from OUR KINKCOMMUNITY (/s)
I have a stomach ache and this is not helping
It’s just fully autonomous pipe cleaning.
Not again.
Or, the other way around 😉
Thanks I hate it.
No worries, its wrong

Sounds like the digestive system works
That’s one well-trained octopus!
Pretty sure that’s not true…
Hey, if we can make a pencil out of leaves, cephalopods can swim through our GI tract like species 8472 through fluidic space.
The problem isn’t the space it’s the acid.
If they weren’t too big or have to swim through all the digestive juices, it would be entirely possible
You would be correct, the Pylorus Sphincter stops anything larger than 1 to 2 millimeters in size from entering the intestines. Solids do not oass through human beings.
I mean, some octopodes are pretty small. The real issue is them moving through the GI tract. They might be flexible enough, but propelling themselves forward consistently would be the real feat.
More importantly nothing larger than a millimeter is getting past the stomach, ever.
Aye that’s part of what I was saying. Now, the argument could be made that if the octopus is smart enough to have the goal of moving through the tract, they could muscle open the sphincter. I haven’t ever tested an octopus against a sphincter. The controlled variable would have to be octopus size…
Off hand, I think the sphincter would win out until the octopus is too big to fit through without rupturing other areas.
How much?
Flexible enough? Sure.
But will it withstand my stomach acids?
Bro, it lives underwater, in the ocean, where there’s sharks and shit. It doesn’t care about your stomach acid.
It lives in water with salt. The average ocean pH value is 8.1. It’s a brain coated with a thin bit of goo.
My stomach is about 1.5 pH.
You could easily go through a waterslide, but if I change the water to be hydrochloric acid, you’re not gonna come out as fresh as you went in. And most skin on the face and body has a pH of between 4.7 and 5.75.
Okay, but mine was funnier.
In addition, pH is a logarithmic scale, a pH of 3 is 10x more acidic than pH 4
Holy crap, I never knew that!
Genuine question: what is the point of logarithmic scales? Why can’t we have a linear scale of 3 to 30 instead of 3 to 4? A linear scale works perfectly fine in most cases (for example the Scoville scale which goes from something like 3 for a green pepper to 20 million for a reaper), so why can’t pH do the same?
Well, sure, you could, but would you rather write that a substance has a pH value of 11, or the absolute value, which is the hydrogen ion molar concentration, which would be 0.00000000001?

Especially since what we consider the neutral point, is a pH value of 7 (pure water). So then, for an example, if you have 3 substances, they have the values of 0.0000043, 0.00000003, and 0.0000005. are they acidic? Or basic? It’s really difficult to tell at a glance.
And sure, you could have a different measurement like set water as 0 and positive are acids and negative are bases or something, but then you just move further away from the actual definition of acidity.
GI?

gastrointestinal
Don’t give people ideas.
Something an incredibly large number of people do not understand is that solid objects cannot pass through you: anything larger than 1-2mm will not get past the Pyloris Sphincter at the end of tour muscle.
And claims otherwise are misled bullshit.
Huh. TIL
When I was a kid, I passed a marble. It was quite painful when exiting the stomach, but I’ll never forget the sound of it hitting the porcelain afterwards.
I never threw the quarter i swallowed at 6 years old back up, doc said it likely passed. Thats hella bigger tam 1-2mm and there’s no quarters showing up on imaging… so how exactly does that work?
Not saying I don’t believe this its just that reconciling this statement with real world experience isn’t adding up.
And now I’m picturing the ‘Little Book of Calm’ getting absorbed and Bill Bailey running around looking like Jesus and quoting it. I never walked around like moose jesus so I guess I didn’t absorb it.
Coins will dissolve within a month, pass once small enough. US Quarters are Copper with a plating of Copper Nickel Alloy, all of which will dissolve in acid.
Now that’s interesting.

Looks like you typoed the unit of measure. Thats 2 cm, not mm, 10x bigger.
However, exceptions include sharp or toxic bodies, objects too large to pass through the pyloric sphincter (greater than 2×6 cm),

The pylorus contracts to slow gastric emptying and results in further mixing of gastric contents. During this time, the stomach transforms its contents into multiphase slurry called chyme, which is a combination of separate phases of aqueous solutions, fats, and solids. The more intense peristaltic waves promote antral empty- ing, which allows gastric contents, mainly fluid mixed with small particles, to pass through the pylorus and enter the duodenum. The particle size of the food emptied through the pylorus is less than 1 to 2 mm during the fed state (Thomas 2006).

Thomas A. 2006. Gut motility, sphincters and reflex control. Anaesthesia Intens Care Med 7(2):57–8.
I think yours is the typo.
I don’t read any conflicts here, in fact it seems the blurb you shared is speaking to normal food particle size that passes though, while the one I shared talks about maximum foreign object size that can pass.
