If you're looking for the #OkeanosExplorer dive on USS Yorktown, this page has you covered! Not just for this dive, but most of them, so if you need to go back and look at stuff, it's a great resource.

Whale Fall pin 🦀🐋🦑
A photo of a large gold-plated enamel pin photographed on top of a lichen-covered rock. The enamel pin features a whale skeleton covered with various deep sea creatures, such as octopuses, hagfish, a giant isopod, a crab, and chimaeras.

That sounds amazing!
At least if I die in the ocean I get to be a part of the ecosystem I love so much. Seems totally pointless to be turned into a popsicle on top of a frozen mountain only to have people step over me as they cover the area in trash. They leave corpses & bags of human shit up there

I think this one might be Holocentridae? It's my favorite fish face moment (so far). @schmidtocean.bsky.social dive 405 part B #MarineLife
Also cool sea stars from that expedition 👇

Me: climbing Everest is 1 of the dumbest choices I've seen humans make
Also me: drop me in the middle of the ocean at night w/ a tiny light & come get me in the morning. I'll be fine. Now shoo, you're scaring the phronima!

Seeing ppl regretting their vote talking about "let's all come together". Until you recognize that EVERY human being is equal and you TREAT THEM THAT WAY, you can fuck all the way off. Human rights aren't a "policy difference" you ignorant potato
