y'all, liking things is SO MUCH FUN

I apologise for the lateness of this reply. I briefly thought you were mad at me and stopped being able to form sentences. It will happen again. Kind regards, etc.

The billionaires can buy the newspapers and buy social media and buy attack ads, but they can't buy their way out of how much we fucking hate all of them.

I mean, what in the neo-liberal, solipsistic, individualist hell is this shit? The fact that the world unfolds from our bodies does not mean that how the world unfolds for us is the sole way that it unfolds for everyone else. Like, we have different bodies, different experiences. Come the fuck on.

The next motherfucker who claims that not having an experience means that the experience itself is invalid, I will PERSONALLY escort to the gates of sto'vo'kor. Just because you, personally, have not had the experience does not mean that it is not possible to have the experience.

I...think I'm starting to enjoy Halloween again? And feel a bit sad that the season is ending so soon.

it is DONE my dudes, 32 goobers for #Invertober2025 now I REST because 3 drawing challenges in 3 months is A TAD BIT TOO MUCH #SciArt #invertebrates

These terrifying bats are looking forward to #Halloween 🦇🦇🦇😱 Bodl. Library MS. Ashmole 304; 13th century; England, St. Albans; f.47v @bodleian.ox.ac.uk

It's so fucking funny that this guy dressed like an off-duty clown and pretended to use a paper map for two days to prove a point, but there's a difference between "Waze uses machine learning to predict routes and traffic patterns" and "we fed every book in the library into an event horizon"

'CHRONO TRIGGER Orchestra Concert: Melodies that Transcend Time' album will release in Japan on January 14, 2026 for 3800 JPY plus tax.

To make a thief, make an owner; to create crime, create laws.

I know #DiNovember is approaching, but my heart is left languishing in the #Paleozoic. The people MUST KNOW about FISH and MOLLUSKS and AMPHIBIANS and ARTHROPODS and EVERY CREATURE I HAVE NOT NAMED BUT WHO YET DESERVE YOUR TIME, RESPECT AND DELIGHT

Saying this is the kind of thing that should cost me my Bachelor's in classical music performance, but God damn this performance of the "Little Fugue" whips ass www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoKQ...

I VISITED AREA X AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS STRANGLING FRUIT THAT CAME FROM THE HAND OF THE SINNER

Oct. 11th was #KrakenDay, "...for all the fantastical cephalopods of myth, movies, literature and legend". I was very tired when I had time to post, so I slept instead. Thus, I shall post TODAY. Today's (10/12) #CephalopodAwarenessWeek observance, #FossilDay, will be observed (here) tomorrow.

Today in #CephalopodAwarenessDays: #Squittleday! Today honors squid & cuttlefish. This should be done every day imo, I'll take what I can get.. FUN FACT: Cuttlefish have been my favorite creature since I was 5. I fell for them HARD. Here is Ze Frank with TRUE FACTS: www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDwO...

It is Oct. 9th, 2nd day of the #CephalopodAwarenessDays! Today's observance is #NAUTILUSNIGHT, in which we learn about and celebrate the NAUTILUS. Here are some nautilus in all their glory off the coast of Palau: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ot7_...

Good morning to everyone but especially to all the octopuses, for today is their special day! To celebrate World Octopus Day, here's an illustration of an octopus from the book 'The World of the Sea' by Moquin Tandon, published in 1869. 📷 Reserve 591.92 TAN #WorldOctopusDay #OctopusDay #RareBooks

I dang near forgot that today begins the Cephalopod Awareness Days! Today is October 8th: Octopus Day! LET US OBSERVE www.cephsinaction.org/activities/o...

Happy Ctenophore Day! 🐙🦑🧪

Apparently it's #NationalPoetryDay in some locales, so I'll take the opportunity to post one of my favorite poems, "In the Desert", by Stephen Crane (1895). I have borrowed/purchased a Concerning Amount of poetry lately, so it feels appropriate. Apparently I have Art Cravings that must be fed

a rat and an octopus. they haven’t met in-person (conflicting access needs) but they are pen pals :)

bro did they really darken out ramza's ass. THAT'S IVALICE'S ASS asking for a refund IMMEDIATELY

I was raised in an esp. noxious form of evangelical Christianity; I mentally broke from it around age 14-15. When I was 16, I kept hearing a strange sound, a melody from an unfamiliar horn, sounding over and over again. For a split second I had Rapture Terror. Reader, it was a sweet potato vendor

Every time I draw cartoon characters punching each other’s lights out, I’m actually encouraging and also literally doing violence. If I draw the Baba Yaga eating a baby, I’m literally advocating cannibalism and also doing meal-planning. Were Bluesky’s guidelines written by twelve-year-olds?

Back in my day, we had GameFAQs walkthroughs totally written out in simplified typewriter font. But some of these guides managed pictures with fancy ASCII art~. 🖥️ #rpg #jrpg

it always feels like we're being forced to throw a dinner party for the worst people on earth, and we have to shut up and smile and be gracious, no complaints, while the worst people on earth are our honored guests and we best not embarrass ourselves in front of them no matter what they do to us

We need a Cadaver Synod for Gerald Ford, is what I'm saying

at their core, trans rights, abortion rights, and vaccine rights are actually all the same issue: they’re all about bodily autonomy, and the willingness to concede any of them puts the others at risk.

How the Square Enix Community Party started and how it ended. Having the Final Fantasy Tactics director himself ask for a picture with her in the Ramza sweater she made is such a milestone in her cosplay journey. Thank you so much @square-enix-games.com for such a magical night. #SQEXCommunity

i want to make a zine, but: a) I don't know what it would be about b) I don't feel that I have anything worth saying to put in said zine, certainly nothing novel

do NOT bother her, she is doing her GUNPLA

What if I was. A horshoe cra b

This is high key making my head explode.

It is okay to read a library book at the beach if you are careful. It is NOT okay to get sand in every nook and cranny of the book + cover + outer cover. I have ideas about how this even happens, but I have encountered it enough times now to know that somehow it's a Thing. #books #libraries

Hey You ever think about EELS? We at Skype a Scientist HQ think that you should. Ideally every day, for 24 days! We made Eel Fact Advent calendars to help! Scratch off each box to reveal factual information about eels from science & society (thx, @greenleejw.bsky.social!) Get one Squidfacts.net

What a whorl. Helicoprion tooth spirals were first described by paleontologists in 1886. How and where the whorls fit in the living fish was a mystery. It wasn’t until 2013 that CT scans of a whorl with some skull cartilage revealed its placement in the lower jaw of a prehistoric ratfish. 🧪
