A happy ending 🦎😊
A photo of a leatherman multitool with the scissor function extended.
It was so tightly caught that I couldn’t tear the netting without risking hurting it. But all was not lost— my wife always carries her multitool!
Dramatic morning! As I was walking through my community garden I spooked a western fence lizard, who got itself hopelessly caught in some netting! 😦🦎
Wow these are so coool
squid slander!
world-altering decisions are being made by a cabal of gambling addicts hell bent on self enrichment no matter the cost to humanity, we should look into that.
Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

This is labeled as a coconut octopus! Infuriating!
the nightmare pufferfish face totally distracts from the arms that loop back in on one anther
a screenshot of an AI-generated image on dreamstime.com purporting to be an ‘amphioctopus marginatus’ but is actually nothing of the sort. the head looks like it has a pufferfish mouth in the center of the face.
probably the most horrifying ai octopus i’ve seen to date
Just channeling the zeitgeist
Very silly drawing of a small red octopus pointing at a very large diagram titled HOW TO DRAW A HUMAN. Text on diagram reads "1) Rearrange eyes, beak, and siphon. 2) attach four arms to mantle. By Prof Pulpo." The diagram itself looks like a totally normal human, ok that's a lie, it's horrific.
Incredible, a joy to create
Drawing of a candy bag with the text "KEN'S cuttles FLAVOR BURST." The corner is torn open and several pink and orange cuttlefish are spilling out.
Drawing of a blue octopus at an old-fashioned sewing table. It is sewing a green patch onto a flowery apron.
Drawing of a large red squid teaching three small red squid to make letters with their ink. The teacher's ink spells ABC and each student's ink is making a letter with an error: the A has two crossbars, the B has three loops, and the C is backwards.
Drawing of a large red squid filling most of a swimming pool and playing with a beach ball.
🦑🐙 BIRTHDAY CEPHALOPODS 🐙🦑
I have time and energy to give out cephalodoodles for my birthday again! Reply to this thread today with your request (any cephalopod + anything else) and I'll draw it! Here are some examples from past years:
Simple pen on paper drawing of a purple and orange cuttlefish figure skating. Its eight arms are used in pairs to mimic the arms and legs of a human skater.
I hope you don't mind, my son convinced me a cuttlefish would be even better (maybe it's Stumpy?)

It’s fantastic! The passing cloud pattern even matches our gold medalist’s hair!
Happy Birthday Danna! how about an octopus figure skating?!
has science gone too far?
I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is
Happy Year of the Horse! 🐴🐡

It's the year of the Fire Horse. Or in my case, the Fire Seahorse. #lunarnewyear
A Day Octopus (Octopus cyanea) camouflaged in a coral reef. It is the centre of the photo, clinging on the side or reef with its mantle hanging down but tucked in. It has a beige and brown colour and blends in very well. It has its papillae raised. The main give away is its siphon, although its eyes also give them away. Below the octopus is a large fish that is swimming sideways. To the upper left is an orange coral with lots of holes.
Time for another round of Find That Octopus!
