Happy World Cephalopod Day! 🐙This sucker for adventure feels its way through the world!

With thousands of chemical receptors and millions of texture receptors packed into each sucker, the giant Pacific octopus has a real sense for exploration.

I'm really tired of living in the Lethal Weapon sequel that nobody wanted.

Bob Calhoun @bobcalhoun.bsky.social · 13h

Thanks for reminding me of this epic saga Matt. I have the same double-gatefold vinyl copy of this I bought when I was a teenager so I only listen to Electric Ladyland at home but it was great hearing it on the Muni train today.
