Body hair should have multiple sliders like a video game avatar. Wanna be furry all over like a Persian cat or a poodle? No problem. Want to be smooth as a dolphin? Also no problem.

shoulder-mounted laser guns
Balls should be behind a thick bone. Essentially not so temperature dependant to facilitate this.
Pelvises that can accommodate both upright walking AND the size of human brains without, you know, killing the humans during birth.
I still find it insane that babies developed compressing skulls before their mothers developed wider pelvic bones
Iirc there are some reptiles with two sets of eyelids on each eye, the inner one being transparent, so they can close just the one while under water or in like dusty/windy conditions, but still be able to see.
Humans need in on that action.
We used to have that. It “devolved” into that lil bump in the corner of your eye by your nose bridge.
Endogenous vitamin d(3) production regardless of light exposure and vit c production
I think our lack of vitamin C production is a feature and not a bug because we basically can't eat too much of it. But animals that produce it like rats can get cancer from eating too much.
I'd much rather produce B12 than C
I'm pretty sure the major things that need to change are in the brain. Predeliction for violence and hate, addiction to controversy and toxins, and whatever makes people stupid enough to support facists.
Suggestion: Each comment should be reposted to !monkeyspaw@sopuli.xyz , or that community should be invited to respond here...
Our bodies need some trace metals, problem is it can't differentiate between metals it needs and metals that will kill it. "Hell yeah, delicious zinc" as it noms down on lead instead of pooping it out.
Optimised learning throughout our entire life. Better focus and improved memory to take in knowledge more effectively
we need more micro-plastics in us
Reduce max fingernail length pls
Just make us all shape shifters so we can do whatever we want.
Deactivate-able hair follicles
Like chromatophores so you can have hair where you want and not where you don't. Maybe it just takes a long time to transition 🤔
Boobs just stay full and up, despite aging, breastfeeding, etc. if we are going to have periods, at least make them painless. Cells just shut down cancer every single time it starts, making it obsolete. You wouldn’t get out of breath at the top of a staircase/big hill if there’s anyone nearby.
- avian lungs and eyes
- salamander healing
- shark immune system
- proper joints for knees and elbows.
- feline hearing
- endless new teeth.
- turtle like aging
- low fertility
The ability to breathe underwater - or if that is too much of an upgrade to ask for, the ability to hold your breath for much longer periods of time so that we could spend significant time underwater.
Especially seeing as the planet's surface is over two thirds water!
