Idk if this anatomy is accurate for terrestrial snails too, but to be fair for aquatic snails the turds float away immediately.

„Darm“ is German for "intestines“ that’s the Weinbergschnecke, or Roman/Borgundy/Edible snail in English. They breathe where they shit….

Humans would be more humble if our anus was on our forehead

If they’re in water the poop actually just floats over their head like a hat

You should see how they lay eggs. Lots of people find it cursed but I like it

Maybe they can pull back their head into the house before opening the floodgates.

I was almost mentioning that.
By Darwin, Huxley and Haldane: why are our playgrounds the same organs as the garbage ducts? Why???

i guess because the urethra is prone to urinary tract infections so it’s kept away from the bacteria-expunger and put with the Goal Of All Evolution device

do people really think that’s particularly terrible? if anything i quite appreciate the ability to flush out the pipes
TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 2 months ago
If you think about it, organs that serve dual purpose for excretion and sex is disgusting. You’re doing oral where pee also comes out. Most people don’t think this is terrible because speciesm. We think possessing anus hanging over one’s face is disgusting. But if snails could talk, they would say it is disgusting to have sex where your organs also just peed.
