Are you going to be the new Schnoodle?!
Aww, I miss Schnoodle 🙁
Possibly one of only three things I miss about Reddit.
Schnoodle is not dead so long as they live in the hearts of men!
True! They're still back at the other place though, the shit zone..
They once wrote one of their poems about my cat and I felt very honored 😁❤️
That’s probably an octopus or maybe a cuttlefish but not a squid.
Squid can’t be kept captive they die within a day or two. And only octopus have the flexibility to change into “a rock” and can be kept as pets.
But very slight chance its a cuttlefish because I can’t see very well if its completely changed shape or not in pic 2.

Do you know why squid died in captivity?
They move very quickly. They tend to quickly kill themselves by bumping their heads into aquarium walls.
If they don’t die from bleeding, trauma, or infection, or stress, they tend to die pretty quickly from asphyxiation. As whenever they bump into the wall, they get suprised, and spray ink. In an aquarium, the ink stagnates and blocks them from breathing properly.

World's crulest animal puts other animals in captivity and then calls them dumb for showing their natural behaviour in a completely alien envirment. More at 11.

what?
They want to sign up for your cephalopod fact subscription service! 😄
Hahhaha. Cephs are so weird and interesting. I was only an intern and didn’t end up going far into biology, but it was certainly fascinating.
I want to keep a pet octopus bimaculous once I have the money.
I miss Sprog from Reddit. I always loved their poems. 🥲
I miss Schnoodle (Schnoodle-doodle-doo, maybe?). Fresh hits like this in /aww…
I knew there was another one! Yes, I miss Schnoodle too!
shittywatercolour will always hold my heart
This is very good
Yesterday there was a spider walking on my floor. I picked it up with a piece of paper and I was worried it would start running around all spider like and touch me. Instead, it went into a spider version of the fetal position and was like "eww human don't touch me!"
This really needs a beat, I can hear the Euro banger in my head
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
