Incredibly tragic that the octopus is so intelligent and so utterly delicious at the same time.

I tried slow-cooking an octopus when one showed up at the seafood counter at my local grocery store and it was fantastic. Prior to that, I’d always considered them rubbery. Now I’d get more if I could find them, but they aren’t normally available.

That shit is mundane to them. An octopus’ real kink is straight up missionary style.
