Zomg it’s like nature found the best way to build muscle over bone to help with movement.
Wheres the post on people being confused about the same pyramids shapes being found everywhere?
As an anthropologist focusing on functional anatomy, let me assure you that nature absolutely did not find the best way to build muscles over bone. It found a good enough way for something fish-shaped to move and had been iterating mostly adequate variations on that plan ever since. Which is the complete opposite of the pyramid thing; it IS about common origin, not about being the best form for the purpose. The principle is beautifully illustrated here with a dance dance dance.

Wow what a great and yet horrifying way to illustrate comparative anatomy. I’m in awe. These are brilliant and extremely accurate and I kind of hate looking at them for too long. Look at that turtle one. That is exactly how a turtle skeleton is weird. I’ve seen illustrations like these before but never executed so well.

Just added a handful of older 2d mixed media (relief printing, drawing, watercolor, and collage) pieces to my Etsy, link in profile if you want to claim one of these!
