sorry for the bad quality, my phone is bad up close

I hit my pinky finger real bad while hammering a nail when I was a kid, it broke off some of the skin but when it grew back it kinda has a divit in it. Doesn’t hurt or cause issues in any way but it’s just kinda a interesting part about my body that’s unique and I probably wouldn’t fix if given the chance.

I’ve come to love these little inconstancies that shows that a body has been used for fun and living, scars with a story are really sweet.

    Extra pair of ribs, which was fun at trivia one night…

    “How many pairs of ribs do human beings have?”

    “Well, first you need to know I have 13 pairs of ribs, that being said, human beings have 12 pairs of ribs.”

      Neat. And thanks to Marilyn Manson, we’re still on target to maintain an average of 12 pairs of ribs pp

      Fun Christian bone trivia:

      The “Adam’s rib” myth is obviously a retcon because even super primative people knew ribs were symmetrical. Hell, back then with less obesity and clothes, ribs were probably pretty obvious.

      That’s not even getting into how bones are super obvious after death.

      There’s one bone that male humans uniquely don’t have, and is related to why the Romans and Greeks thought a small flaccid penis was the peak of human masculinity.

      We don’t have a literal bone in our boners.

      A difference that humans would have noticed.

        A more accurate translation is the “side” of Adam, with the idea he was made from mud or clay and that part was pinched off as you’d do pottery to make Eve.
