I've thought about this a few times, but tbh I don't know enough about human anatomy to know! My main thing is, what about nostrils? Do nostrils increase the number of (topologically nontrivial) holes in a human? I think we can ignore the windpipe and lungs, there should be a homotopy removing them (I think). Same with eyeballs, vaginas, and whatnot. But nostrils? I think those might be topologically nontrivial.
The outer ear ends at the eardrum, so I don't think it's topologically significant either. That said, the nostrils and mouth absolutely connect, so you have at least three holes up there.
I think we have five topologically significant holes? Nostrils, mouth, anus, urethra. Nothing else is actually a hole.
How do eye sockets fit into this? Aren't there openings between the skull and outside, technically, even though intraocular muscles or whatever usually keep the eye in an airtight position in the socket?
I all but guarantee that if that poster is old enough, they have a mostly-unread copy of Infinite Jest and a "Church of the Subgenius" sticker on an old laptop somewhere and think it's super cool to be vague and pretentious while not actually standing for anything but their own sense of superiority.
Political non-euclidean??? Are they a fucking sphere?
topologically speaking i think they're a torus
Aren't we all

Oh! I forgot about ears! Really, the whole sinus situation is complicated and I have no idea what's happening in our weird-ass skulls

mouth-anus is one hole. nostrils and mouth form like a Y shape and i don't know enough math to name that kind of system
Sorry, I should've said we have five significant orifices. You're right that mouth-anus is one hole.

Well, if we're saying that tissue blocking the way doesn't count, then we have a whooole lot of holes.
I was just making a joke about how many things are torus? Toruses? Tori?
Why have you been thinking about this

Fun fact humans humans topologically look something like a menorah.
Nah I'm an Aquarius
How dare you?
Step one: assume the centrist is a perfect sphere in a perfect vacuum
Now calculate the volume of their ignorance using a triple integral in spherical coordinates
Based on my understanding there's like a 60% chance it's either 1 or 0.
Oh I can think of some centrists I'd like to put inside a perfect vacuum
Hyperbolic plane.

that means they're a redditor
How else are they going to stick their head so far up their ass?
