I don't have a date confirmed yet, but I will most likely have surgeries done in August after DenFurCO (double mastectomy, hysterectomy and salpingo-oophorectomy)! Which means the money that I make from this will help me prepare for it, so anything helps. Thank you!! 💙💜❤️🧡💚

Arctic zooplankton are the best. We've had tons of comb jellies (ctenophore) this year, and even a few sea angels (which are my personal favorites). This particular sea angel (the big orange one) eats only sea butterflies (another type of sea snail)

Meet Brie, the Inkling who can't change her color. Brie was born with a rare condition in which her chromatophores do not function. As a result, she wears colorful socks on her tentacles to compensate. Brie has many different colored TentaSocks in her collection.

Firefly Squids like yours truly, have hundreds of glowing cells called photophores that light up.

Electra's Guide to knowing your Cockeye Squid. While intimidating, their cockeye is actually very sensitive to bioluminescence (which is bad for us Firefly Squids). They also use their cockeye to snipe. Cockeyes also have sparkling photophores that give them the name, Jewel Squid

Sliding into with another bobtail squid who loves 90's pizza/paint parties.

For real though, octopus skin is full of stretchy sacs of color (chromatophores), stacks of reflective plates (iridophores), and light-scattering patches (leucophores). It's insane!

... And then there's Sifurious! Evolves from Somdia, under certain, special circumstances. It is a Siphonophore pokemon.

Siphonophore mouths are the stuff of nightmares. Each siphonophore jelly has hundreds of mouths on a long body: watch each mouth suck on glass and suck down prey. Each mouth works as an individual, sometimes eating animals from all sides! Vid: https://t.co/s9Az5miSBz

Ambiance moite et chimérique cet après-midi avec Les Garçons Sauvages de Bertrand Mandico : rêve éveillé animant les sens, et qui nous mène sur les rivages d'une nature luxuriante gorgée de métaphores. Esthétique et poétique.

The star of this week's is the Banded Piglet Squid! This guy lives in the deep sea, is translucent, swims upside down, has photophores under its eyes, was voted most eccentric in his class, and is mostly a mystery.
