    Marine tragedy! Stop the killing!

    Be not faint of heart, O Loyal Cephalopodophiles, but National Geographic has a whole series of photos of a squid slaughter.

    i-85ddd2609989176eab9a6b99c57874f0-spermwhale.jpeg

    The whales are shameless. They’re just swimming around with tattered corpses dangling from their mouths, and they even dandle the bits in front of their babies, to encourage them to join in the wanton massacre.

    Oh, the architeuthidae.

    Some cake

    Out of a whole collection of steampunk-themed cakes, this one has to be my favorite:

    i-fcceb9eac8df5d02da9acf3151cc3463-steampunk_cake.jpeg

    It looks like something out of Girl Genius — it must have been made by a spark.

    It’s also interesting to see that there is a whole wide freaky cake-decorating sub-culture out there. Very cool.
