    The human body is ~70% water.

    I think the second and third wishes will be somewhat irrelevant.

    I’m not sure what exactly it will feel like when the fluid inside your eyeballs suddenly becomes milk, but it won’t matter for very long as all of the tiny blood vessels in your brain suddenly clog up and fail.

      Milk is ~80% water, so you’ve got a recursion error right there

        I mean the replacement happens once. So presumably it just replaces all water with the milk ratios

          So would the water in existing milk cause the milk to become milk2?

        No, that just means instead of 70% water, your body is now 56% water and 14% milk solids. No error in that math

      I mean even if the genie wasn’t being that literal, just destroying all toilets would probably have the same result without the milk and lactose intolerance situations. Cholera and dysentery would take out a large chunk of the population. Societies are only advanced as their sanitation systems allow.

      Milk is 87% water. This is going to create a loop that will end up with all water-based liquids on earth becoming powdered milk.

        Certainly, the water in milk is already “milk”, as it is a part of the larger whole?

          So how much can you dilute milk before it becomes no longer milk?

          Is all water already milk?

            Fortunately, we know that if you cut milk with an equal amount of cream, it becomes half and half, so you probably can’t dilute milk more than 50% without having to call it something else.

              Logically if diluting with cream makes it “Half and half” (decreasing it) then diluting it with water would increase it to either “whole and whole”, making it 2x milk or even more, “half again and half again” or 3x milk.

    I mean you can just filter the milk and extract the water, what worries me is all acuatic life dying which would mess with the oxygen and then the whole wish also messes with the temperature of the earth and would lead to us dying. Without considering the water in our body being turned into milk. Blood is kinda already milk but unfiltered and stuff tho. Anyways, probably either an uncomfortable, painful and slow death, an extremely painful but quick death or an instant but painless death.

        Milk comes from blood. Some stuff gets filtered and all that but still. If you do the right steps you could probably make something similar to milk I imagine. Still blood will obviously taste differently.

            urine is actually blood too, just filtered differently.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss
  3. GPrime85

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you’re posting:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what’s going on. (example)
