    Your username could be interpreted as analogous to their digestive system.

  And plastic bags keep them from being able to vomit out the water.

  • syreus@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    They generally expel the water out the nostrils so drinking straws love to get lodged in their noses. Then they slowly die of starvation. Isn’t life beautiful?

    Isn't nature beautiful

    Yeah, but think of the CEOs! What would happen if they didn’t buy a new supercar each year at least?

    • Geodad@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Aww, shit. I’ve been using the same ALDI bags for years now. I guess they’ll have to cut back on their avocado toast. 🤷‍♂️

  This would have been a useful upgrade during Uni…

    Purge the booze, keep the snacks. Yeah that’s handy.

      Other way around.

  Unfortunately if can also lodge inedibles in their throat such as plastic wrap.

  They’re filter feeders?

• LovableSidekick@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  Imagine if human digestion worked this way. Next to every drinking fountain would be a purge trough.

• CityPop@lemmy.today ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  So do they just have no gut acid? How quickly does that regenerate if you’re giving your stomach a seawater oral enema every time you eat.

  source

  • cenzorrll@lemmy.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Well, our stomachs are not at full acid all the time, only when we eat. I imagine it’s pretty similar.

    turtles, because of the jellyfish they eat have very thick eosophagus lining, i assume thier stomaches are equally touch.

  Wouldn’t a reverse filter mix things together

  source

  • Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I think a reverse filter would only let large particles through while retaining the ones to small to pass through it.

    source

    • thelasttoot@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      That’s still just a filter. A filter is something that separates and divides a group into specific categories. So a reverse filter would be the opposite of that. Something that takes separate groups and mixes them together.

      So size exclusion chromatography

• ThatGuy46475@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  So if they can’t swallow something do they just die

  source

  • Hule@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Don’t we all?

  Now that’s classy

  I bet theres still always carrots in it.

• feinstruktur@lemmy.ml ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  Sspine doesn’t make sense here at all. I assume OP meant esophagus/ gullet.

  source

  • Dave@lemmy.nz ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    It says spines, rather than spine. The esophagus is covered in spines (think like the spines on a porcupine, not a backbone).

    source

    • Crankenstein@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Those “spines” are called papillae, for anyone wanting specifics.

    Seems like they meant spines to me? As in those little spikey spines pointing backwards down the esophagus?

  Reverse filter is a strainer or sieve.

  source

  • thelasttoot@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Strainers and sieves are filters. A filter is a filter. A reverse filter is still a filter. Direction doesn’t make a difference because direction is subjective.

    source

    • someguy3@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Direction matters in what you keep. A filter you keep the water. A strainer/sieve you keep the contents.

  That must feel so good

  Wouldn’t check valve be more accurate?

  source

  • psud@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    It only stops solids above a certain size, so a filter is more accurate. Check valves generally stop everything or all of a class of things, the turtle passes all liquid and some solids

    Our heart valves are check valves

    source

    • OldChicoAle@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      A class of things = large solid objects like jellyfish and food?
