Lol, I think that’s only in the cartoon, eh.

The fact is that the platypus’s digestive tract does include a small expanded pouch-like section where one would normally expect a stomach to be located. The platypus’s stomach doesn’t secrete digestive acids or enzymes (Harrop and Hume 1980; Ordoñez et al. 2008), but does produce a mucus-rich fluid to assist nutrient absorption in the intestines (Krause 1971). Following on from the discussion of grinding pads above, it would seem that a platypus masticates food so thoroughly in its mouth that little additional processing is required before food reaches the intestines. Also, because a platypus consumes numerous small prey items over a period of many hours, its stomach doesn’t need to have a large holding capacity to accommodate infrequent large meals.
Sooo, “gullet”?
I went down this rathole.
They first grind up the bugs they eat in their mouths, then they have a chamber with bacteria which further reduce their food, then their intestines finish the job.
ETA, since you all are such curious cats:

Mind blown, in a good way.
You are sick. Seek help.
OK, good.
And I found this in the article:
In Philadelphia, most of the money for these projects comes from the water department, which is trying to make the city more capable of absorbing storm runoff.
I guess the water dept knows what they’re getting into.
I wonder how much additional water this will use?
Just jumping in here to say thanks @HotWheelsVroom@lemmy.ml for this recommendation.
Before this, I had not heard of this series. I’ve been playing FlatOut 2 from Steam this week though and it’s a blast. So thanks!
Not with that attitude.
No need for a second term either.
Is that image nightmare fuel for anyone else?

Because F++k Google.
Don’t forget Sales people too. At my company they frequently schedule fun activities right in the middle of the day.

I was just joking, eh. All good.
She has a name, eh? Raygun.
Maybe add “from the South” to the end of the question?
Good joke tho’,
