Yesterday there was a spider walking on my floor. I picked it up with a piece of paper and I was worried it would start running around all spider like and touch me. Instead, it went into a spider version of the fetal position and was like “eww human don’t touch me!”
This really needs a beat, I can hear the Euro banger in my head
I miss Sprog from Reddit. I always loved their poems. 🥲
I miss Schnoodle (Schnoodle-doodle-doo, maybe?). Fresh hits like this in /aww…
That’s probably an octopus or maybe a cuttlefish but not a squid.
Squid can’t be kept captive they die within a day or two. And only octopus have the flexibility to change into “a rock” and can be kept as pets.
But very slight chance its a cuttlefish because I can’t see very well if its completely changed shape or not in pic 2.

They move very quickly. They tend to quickly kill themselves by bumping their heads into aquarium walls.
If they don’t die from bleeding, trauma, or infection, or stress, they tend to die pretty quickly from asphyxiation. As whenever they bump into the wall, they get suprised, and spray ink. In an aquarium, the ink stagnates and blocks them from breathing properly.
