For World Octopus Day🐙, let's learn a weird fact about the three hearts of our eight-legged friend.
The SYSTEMIC HEART of an octopus STOPS BEATING while they swim / jet.
Seems like a design flaw, doesn't it? Let's talk about it.

![Hello Bone Colleagues,
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

Every few months or so someone makes a post condescendingly explaining to autistic people/the arfid affected that if you don't eat vegetables you will die. And EVERY time it pisses me off because oh my god girl. We already know 😂🔫

[person who is about to offer no actual advice on how to meet nutritional goals with a sensory processing/eating disorder] you autistics need to stop making excuses not to eat your grown up foods. If you go on a boat you couldn't use sensory issues as an excuse not to wear a life vest, could you? I know you guys aren't typically receptive to demands and social pressure, but lowkey this isn't about helping you I just think you're annoying.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:fn7gmsrozrf54vvm2ivgkqbb/bafkreiffr56zoxwyf37royhior5qkvgfhvmrihrcgldklr43xfu5d76lf4)

I don't fuck w nerds, the moment I can smell lore correction coming I'm like "Oh Neptune" and I gotta call my mom and ask her to pick me up
If I'm like "I really liked the scene where Gandalf learns the truth about the Ring in the first movie" and someone's like "Oh you mean when he was in Minas Tirith, originally known as Minas Anor when it was first built in the Third Age?" I am pulling the nearest fire alarm

Them: Pelargir prospered further under the reign of the the Ship-kings, and Tarannon Falastur, 12th king of Gondor, built a home there, though Berúthiel, his wife, didn't care for it
Me, sweating: D. Did you know that. That Viggo Mortensen really broke his toe. In that one scene
