College bros would compete to swallow the roughest and sharpest ones. There would be a Silicon Valley startup trying to "disrupt" gastroliths with a "smart stomach stone" that gathered data about what you're eating and sold it to McDonald's and Kroger. Couples who were really serious would prove it by regurgitating and swapping stones. The "raw gut" movement would be trying to convince people that they didn't need gastroliths, they just needed to eat softer foods.

Damn, this was eye-opening. I seem to hate humans quite a bit.

Smart Gastroliths would definitely be a thing. Ai enhanced gyroscopic gastrolith for assisted fiber digestion.

Guarantee that it's only a matter of time that some snake oil company would release a gastolith that actually gives off positive ions because it contains thorium.

remember to sterilize your gastroliths, but be careful so you don't create microfractures that might splinter off in your stomach and kill you! Just stick to smooth polished rocks washed in soap.

There would definitely be vibrating rocks

In fact, it’s best practice

how small is small?

Chalk it up to a feeling but eating a little bit of sand and whatnot is probably good for us

So we do swallow rocks!

People will make a health conspiracy out of every innocuous thing, though.

Cut my insides to pieces, this is my gastrolith

Oh my fuck, we absolutely would shave our tails, and there is just something so horrid about that thought that how I won't be able to fucking sleep, thanks, I hate it.

The Victorian era would have made it so that showing any amount of tail was scandalous and we would all be wearing these bizarre contraptions designed to hide our tails beneath our clothing. Most people would be aware of the fact that keeping our tails tied up was an antiquated puritanical practice that was overall unhealthy for us, but even still, the brave few who chose to let their tale go in public would be looked at as pariahs even by those who ostensibly agreed with the reason behind it.
