Alright everybody how are YOU celebrating #CephalopodWeek?
Avatar
Some suggestions: 1) Doodle a cephalopod and then show it to me (I love squid art. All squid art. Yes, yours too) 2) Go to the aquarium & spend most of your time with the cephalopods 3) Watch Secrets of the Octopus (new octopus docuseries) 4) Play "2 Hours Of Squid To Relax/Study/Work To" all day

I don’t have an aquarium nearby, or any artistic ability to speak of but here are some pictures of Octavius, Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada’s Pacific Red Octopus. I think he’s a work of art!

Oh! Don't forget "Day of the Tentacle"! It's re-released with updated graphics on the iPad!

You’re opening a real Pandora’s box with that request for ALL squid art…

Pretty jazzed about it. Great work by Marc Cano at 522 Tattoo in Lake Forest Park, WA.

Thinking about these friends
Some cuttlefish I saw diving! Yellow guy is smoller and in Tulamben, Bali. The two large ones are defending eggs in the Kerama islands, Okinawa. All might be the same species, Ascarosepion latimanus? All danced through color changes 🥰🦑 #InverteFest

And a few octopus (all coconut) seen on the same trip

1. Dressed up bunny 2. Changed PFP 3. Pondering the proper plural form of octopus, cuttlefish, and nautilus.

I had no idea there was such a thing, but now that I know, I think I will finally get started on reading 'Remarkably Bright Creatures'. I hear it is very good. And about an octopus, so seems fitting to start in Cephalopod Week.

Octopus is def the best character in that book

Couldn't agree more! Absolutely loved him!

I'm rooting for Dalton Greyjoy, the Red Kraken, to show up on Season Two of House of the Dragon, if I'm being honest. 🐙

1. Watch @theoctopuslady.bsky.social videos 2. Sing the traditional song (lyrics below, you know the tune) 3. Read Remarkably Bright Creatures 4. Tell the tale of Fweej the Overseer

I'm going to have a beer and meditate upon our relationship to our friends, the cephalopods. 🍻

I think about how the octopus can have so much love because: three hearts

This would be an excellent week to unleash an army of mechanical squid upon the unsuspecting surface world, @nycteris.bsky.social

I mean, that’s every week, when you get down to it. 🙌

You mean you don't celebrate every day?

Recently hung out with this beautiful creature at the New England Aquarium, so I might as well share

#CephalopodWeek has three hearts to love you and eight arms to hold you! (Unless you’re a CUDDLEfish)

Even if it is cephalopod week, do not play with the blue ringed octopus.

Looking back at one of my first and one of my favorite crochet animals

I ran across some squid ink while swimming the past couple of days, hoping to see the culprits today!

Saw a wee cuttlefish this evening but didn’t have my phone on me.

I actually made some octopus art for June (for a challenge with the topic "an octopus's garden", I picked the topic without knowing that there is a cephalopod week in June)

I’m gonna predict the World Cup winner, from an aquarium.

I’m gonna spend the next three years being beautiful, intelligent, and transformative. But after that… well

Eating Cephalopod. As normal. Good part of sustainabel diet for Shark.

Making my annual plea for someone to domesticate and amphibiate cuddlefish, of course. (I squeed "CUDDLEFISH!" at that photo. 😄)
