A human skeleton CAN be nude, but it's reverse of a living person. The more a skeleton is covered, the more nude it is UNTIL it reaches the point of full coverage at which point it's not nude anymore.
This is why a skeleton knight wearing a full suit of armor is not nude, a plain fully-exposed articulated skeleton is not nude, but a saint's skeleton on display wearing jewels and fancy clothes can feel uncomfortable. It's also part of why zombies with the skeleton partially exposed unnerve us.
A partial or disarticulated skeleton can't be nude. And there are exceptions for parts on a skeleton that are normally unclothed on a living person. So that armored skeleton is not immediately very nude if they took off the helmet. They also wouldn't be more nude if they wore only a helmet and nothing else. However, if that skeleton knight took off just the armor shoes? If they only removed the crotch armor, so the wind whistles through their pelvis? That belongs in a strip club or an art gallery.

SO! Are all yall Sym fans hungry??? Turns out I got possessed by him and what do you know?-
Boom. Fruity Alien more aliened but he's really an AI but SHHHHHH.
Anyway, this is my design for Sym in my SYMBIOSIS!AU. Kinda funny eeh? His design is mostly inspired from The Fic "Evermore Dreams"'s Convergence Domain. Heavily Squinted eyes, the Sugarbug limbs, and originally was gonna make him more worm like but... no, nah, another day. I forgot his lil silly Antenna but we cope. We cope a lot here. I really wanted to make him look very "Comfy" because he's meant to be an very Soothing being. Turns out his lil relaxation trick is 99% more powerful. Nap time for ALL!

Here’s dril’s candles on a graph for reference.
It’s easy to look at these and assume “well, high crime cities need more police,” but i think that’s putting the cart before the horse.
Police make crime worse.
Police take fiscal oxygen out of the room, away from actual social support programs. The money spent on policing could go to housing, nutritional services, healthcare, civil rights, building inspections, labor rights enforcement, street maintenance, public transportation. But it goes to paying guys to sit around idling Ford Explorers all day and hitting poor people with sticks.
Crime follows poverty in absolutely every single case. Every single “high crime city” is because of the fucking poverty.
one thing i am quite grateful to Brian David Gilbert for is the phrase "If you needed ME to tell you that... I'm glad I told you that."
it has been etched into my brain for the past six years, fundamentally altering how i consider knowledge gaps held by others, as well as myself. people usually need to be told stuff before they can know it! that's how knowing stuff works! this is an extreme example played for laughs but it's a legitimately helpful philosophy!!
