    I told you tentacle movement is really complex

    It really is! Now professional animators will tell you that making a cartoon octopus is very difficult, too.

    Friday Cephalopod: Atrocity!

    Weep for the poor creatures.

    But note the steely glint of vengeance in the eye of their living compatriots.

    Friday Cephalopod: Two legs…good. Eight legs…divine

    i-9ccc341cc906449532b14b5b20b271f1-wonderpus.jpeg

    (via Aquaviews)

    One of the bonuses of having lots of legs is that you can go bipedal whenever you feel like it.

    (via TONMO)

    A fun suggestion: do a google image search for “Wonderpus”. Be prepared to go blind.

    Anti-Caturday post

    Game over, man. No cat video can ever be as awesome as this: two mimic octopuses mating.

    It’s like watching a nest of snakes break out into a barroom brawl. It’s also the most erotic thing I’ve ever seen on the internet.

    Cephalopod warning: soon, they’ll be everywhere

    You think you’re safe because you’re terrestrial? Further evidence that the invasion is imminent:

    Foolish humans, thinking it is “cute”. It was merely looking for a major artery before biting down.
