It’s only the marrow that is wet. The structural part of the bone is non-absorbent.
The marrow can exert a lot of pressure. Many years ago, I had to have chemotherapy, and in between chemo rounds got marrow-stimulating shots to make the marrow ooze blood more and reduce the amount of time I was anemic. The associated pain in my large bones was the worst pain I have ever had.

So not only do I have a skeleton inside of me, it’s constantly pissing?
piss is stored in the bones 🤣
Big Balls has been lying to us this whole time.
Depending on where we put the sense of “self” we are in our skeleton and its pissing on us. Weirdly gross to think about.
Our “self” would be contained in the nervous system as that’s where all the thinky parts are.
We are a nervous system driving a meaty mech suit.
Our hydraulic system is basically red pre-piss and sometimes we need to pee to regulate it.
That’s equal parts “oh yeah. Cool” and “gguuaaarghhhhh uuuaaarrrgghhh”
Incredibly fucking metal.
Also they are pink short of certain medications.
If they are constantly wet, why aren’t they soggy and not maintaining our structure?
This whole thread is disturbing to me.

That’s terrifying, I hope it was worth the literal pain and that you’re doing better now!
Thanks for the kind thoughts, stranger. It was eighteen years ago now, and I am glad to have been here for those years!
