Side note: In practice, human salivary secretions vary from slightly acidic (a pH of 6.2) to slightly basic (a pH of 7.6). In context, the human captain's salivary pH was lowered due to the stress of the situation, enhancing the acidic properties. In addition, human salivary secretions contain the following: * Predigestive enzymes, such as amylase and lipase, which would have contributed to the breakdown of the protective slime layer. * Electrolytes. * White blood cells. * Discarded skin cells. * Antimicrobial agents. * Lysozyme. In the event recorded, it was likely this substance which played the greatest part in the destruction of the Burg commander. Lysozyme is an antimicrobial agent found in most human secretions. It acts by breaking down the cell walls of bacteria, and has been shown to dissolve chitin, though not so well as the unrelated chitinase.

I have sort of a love-hate relationship with "humans are space orcs" stories. On the one hand, I love stories that point out just how fucking weird humans are. On the other, it's always bugged me how most of them make it seem like every other sentient species in the universe would be scared shitless by the same aspects of human biology. I mean, even on our own planet, there's a tree whose fruit can cause stomach bleeding and cancer in humans, but iguanas have no problem eating it. We all evolved on the same planet, using the same basic chemical structures. It just seems really arrogant to assume that we can handle or enjoy things that all alien life couldn't, like we wouldn't be equally horrified to see an alien from a planet with its own unique chemical composition and ecosystem snorting... I don't know, cyanide. I bet, like, Trisolaris would have an underground market for cyanide or something.

[@snackcakesmcgee7729]

I read this one story about an alien who was horrified by the idea that you can transplant organs from one human to another. Ever heard of a hydra? Not the mythological creature, the actual animal. They can regrow from a single cell. If you push one through a sieve, or stick it in a blender, or something, you end up with a hundred new hydras.

[@nuclearsynapse5319]

As we define it, it's just bacteria. Technically speaking though the bacteria was "injected" into the Burg through the carrier saliva, as the saliva broke through the protective slime layer. It would be like me tearing off a chunk of your skin and splashing venom on the wound. I didn't use a syringe, but your bloodstream now has venom in it. The one odd thing here is that aliens treat venom and bacteria as similar antigens. Bacteria is alive and uses the body in a parasitic manner to reproduce rapidly. Venom is a catalyst that destroys our proteins, which explains why some venoms are so deadly even with only a bit. Some catalysts don't deform after they perform their reactions, while others only have a limited number they can perform before becoming useless.

their reaction if they find out how humans reproduce after that happened....i'd pay to see that...oh lord

The youtube algorithm sent me, and I have greedily sucked up every video avaliable. So much fan literature is robot read, your readings are clear and well paced. I hope to listen more from you, the work is great!

[@WiredTurkey316]

Another winner. For the algorithm

[@all-Mad-Here]

This is so cool! I love the “humans are space orcs” posts, they give me ideas for my sci fi writing. Also nice drawing! :D

[@drewahrens3141]

I love how Komodo Dragons are always being brought up in the comment section, it's great.

[@warthog4430]

I hope one day you’ll revive the channel again! I know life can get in the way sometimes and things can get hectic and times can change, I hope you’re still doing well and that one day we will get another episode! Your channel will continue to explode the more you write! On behalf of all the subs on here, PLEASE MAKE MORE!!

[@robertshank9778]

It should be Humans are Space Komodo Dragons 🤣😂🤣 May you be blessed... By and For the Algorithm...

Yes.

[@demonickiller6315]

just wait until they find out that we can actually lift somewhere close to like 10 tons or some super heavy shit. BUT we are only restricted by the strength of our bones, and our brain puts a subconscious limit on the strength of our muscles (reduced with adrenaline hence why you get stronger when in flight or flight) because if our muscles exerted full strength, our bones would snap.

[@crabspriteberry9572]

Holy shit dude.

[@demonickiller6315]

@@crabspriteberry9572 im not sure the exact number but yeah, muscles are really fucking strong and are resticted by the bones

All fun and games till an alien sees a mother clean her child’s face with her own saliva, and the child merely responds with discomfort

[@sirapple2406]

No, please, call me venomous, it sounds badass!

[@Loreman72]

You know what I think? I think the Berg carapace included starch compounds, which are dissolved by the Amylase enzyme in human saliva. Its plates were being *digested*!

[@dariawilliams6909]

I'm excited for the next video!

[@ladylightning1741]

Humans: Guys, it's just bacteria. NOT venom. Aliens: W-what do you classify as venom?

[@brightside2718]

So we're like the space equivalent of komodo dragons?

[@FrancisR420]

I think Komodo dragons are the space equivalent of Komodo dragons

[@MilodicMellodi]

I’d probably say humans in the WASO-verse are potentially what the Blue Shadow Virus was in the Star Wars-verse.

[@mill2712]

your voice is oddly relaxing, an interesting parallel to the horrifying scenarios being described

[@Dragmiredraws]

Just found this, WOW!! It’s crazy to think humans could be that “venomous” to another species!! >_>

[@That80sGuy1972]

Humans are Space Orcs: Humans are suddenly almost Kryptonians, they left Earth finding out that the galaxy is full of space wussies.

[@ArbitraryEverything]

Today I remembered that I'm a Komodo Dragon.

[@JimmWasHere]

Starfall's HASO stories and short stories are always amazing and definitely worth a subscribe

[@wingedalpha]

* light snickers * hearphone All jokes aside, great job, Willow! (Although I would like to see the finished art that you're working on in the background)

[@diamondwillow1191]

XD I have to finish the thing before even I can see the end product lol I'll hopefully have it done by the end of the day though

Dunno why, but my mind jumped to the Ugandan knuckles meme. "SPIT ON HIM BROTHERS"

[@ItsAllNunya]

jfc i had the exact reactiong the aliens expected. i Am the humans from the stories oh no. these are my fave tho.

Ok now that was hilarious 😂. Imagine human spit being as dangerous as xenomorph blood.

I had never heard of this before now and it is fucking hilarious.

Not sure why this appeared in my recommended, but it kept me until the end. What an amusing tale.

Nice to see other people keeping the Humans are Space Orcs series alive when Seymour pretty much scrapped it.

[@ilian4117]

More pls 👍

Me, venomous?! HAHAHA You should meet some of the creatures we have called rattlesnakes, cobras, and taipans...and don't get me started on these little frogs in the Amazon or a wide selection of ocean-dwelling creatures.
