Ave Imperator! We who are about to nap salute you!

When you’re an umbrella jelly but you can never be dry 😓 

But they never stop trying 💪

So do I! Severed octopus limbs are still active and will try to act as though still attatched!!! they’ll reach for food and try to bring it to the mouth they don’t have anymore!

just woke up from one hell of a nightmare i need a distraction…

The Fly (1958) is a very good and intelligent movie. Its characters are realistic and it’s an engaging and thought-provoking story (and the practical effects are good). [I’m going to spoil it now, but i really do recommend you watch it yourself.]

I take issue with the doctor’s reaction to his test results- not in how it was written, but with the man himself, fictional as he is. His motivations are not incomprehensible, and he’s not really in his right mind towards the end- I can even comprehend (though I wouldn’t do the same) wanting to destroy oneself rather than lose all agency. Having another conciousness take over your body is frightening (though I do think an imperfect solution could’ve been found with help). But the burned notes are a scarcely-addressed tragedy. The destroyed lab equipment, a nearly perfect teleporter, gone, seems to be the Fly’s doing, assuming the audience can judge this based on which arm acts. That is a great tragedy, but Doctor Delambre seems to be in control again when he burns his notes and his reasoning behind it is chaos! As if destroying his work would prevent the same thing from happening to a future scientist! He didn’t need anyone else’s input to make that mistake, so why should the next person need his? If he had the good sense to leave his research intact, it could be learned from, because that’s how science is supposed to work! You can’t publish results you know are wrong, and you can’t withhold results because they’re not the ones you wanted! What I’m saying is Andre singlehandedly (pun intended) deprived his world of teleportation technology because he had an accident. What a brilliant moron.

everyone should watch Atlantis: The Lost Empire. it really sparks wonder and curiosity towards other civilizations!, living and dead. (and Milo Thatch is very clever.)

Why do cuttlefish have W-shaped pupils? What purpose does that particular shape serve?

Good question! The cuttlefish’s distinctive W-shaped pupil and “eyelid” helps even out the scattered light of the reef and reveal hidden prey.
