The squid is a “sit and wait” predator, burying itself in the sand with its eight suckered arms and two tentacles to wait for prey to pass by. They then strike with their tentacles to capture their prey. If they happen to miss their target, the animal will bury itself back in the sand to wait for the next opportunity.1 Their primary diet is typically smaller shrimp and crustaceans.

They hunt from dusk until dawn, when they are usually most active. When not hunting, the Hawaiian bobtail squid will bury itself in the sand to hide from predators. They also have a small squid sac through which they can release a small amount of ink to try and distract the predator. Some known predators of the Hawaiian bobtail squid are the Hawaiian monk seal and the lizardfish.2

The Hawaiian bobtail squid has a bioluminescent light organ inside their mantle cavity, which provides light enough for the squid to hunt at night.1 The organ functions with the help of a symbiotic bacteria known as Vibrio fischeri, and the light is a result of the interaction between the bacteria and the squid’s bioluminescent organ in the squid’s mantle cavity.2

From wiki

Geastrum triplex is a fungus found in the detritus and leaf litter of hardwood forests around the world. It is commonly known as the collared earthstar, the saucered earthstar, or the triple earthstar—and less commonly by the alternative species name Geastrum indicum. It is the largest member of the genus Geastrum (or earthstar fungi) and expanded mature specimens can reach a tip-to-tip length of up to 12 centimeters (4+3⁄4 in).

Otz is one of the few streamers I follow, and I don't really play games much anymore so it's the only way I can stay on top of the big releases to watch his let's plays idk if it's similar for anyone else. This is part 1 of 2. Part 2 of 2 is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoRIJM0u4QA

Not sure what cws to put on this because I haven't played the game before. I'm suspecting it's something like violence, gore, SA mention?

Share a photo in the comments if you can find it! Also, what do yuu like about the art? Do you run it in any of the decks/games you play?

This is mine for now. It's Trapinch from the Pokemon tcg by Asako Ito. I don't play, but there's a stack of free singles that people leave in a box at a bg place I go to, ao I took one and keep it in my wallet as a good luck charm (and charm it does, look at rhe overaized head and cute knitted body! A single crooked thread for a mouth and a shining star iris completes the baby)

Also while I was browsing, I saw this sick Galarian Moltress by Shinji Kanda

Look at this bird(??) it's very red hence the name coccinea. It is apparently pronounced 'eeEEvee' kinda like the Pokemon but with the stress in a different part of the word. It has a hooked beak for eating nectar from tubular flowers

I watched one episode way back when but didn't stick with it, but I've been seeing promos that there's a live action [异人之下] and it looks pretty fun. Wondering if it's worth bingeing before the movie

i said no fuckin

Edit: added my 'prompt' for context

i saw one of these trucks on the road and lmaod, it's an actual shipping company
