Day 26 of my 2025 Favorites: Parenthood be like–

When I first catch a glimpse of a giant Hogna wolf mom absolutely covered in babies, my brain refuses to process what I'm seeing, it's just bizarre. And then realization dawns and it's sweet. That's just the invertebrate experience. 🖤

I think you write a book by sleeping in and snuggling with your cats. I thought that’s how that worked.

Many squids in the family Chiroteuthidae have ornate tails that help them mimic other organisms that are far less tasty prey than a squid.

Here we can see a Planctoteuthis squid mimicking a Christmas tree.

My godson is in New Zealand right now visiting his grandmother’s extended family and his mom just sent me a picture of him in front of the Colossal Squid at Te Papa. I am so proud 🥹

btw, they are mating, but the way striped pyjama bottletail squids mate just looks so much like kissing.

Every year I create a Christmas card for Kraken Robotics, a submersible company based in Newfoundland. Here’s this year’s design featuring Santa Kraken holding some submersible batteries and riding in a sleigh pulled by firefly squid.

Diamondback Squids (Thysanoteuthis rhombus) lay their eggs in giant pink slinkies. These egg masses are made up of two threads of eggs wrapped around a cylinder of mucus.

These egg masses contain 35,000 to 75,000 eggs and have a length of 60 cm to 180 cm long with a diameter of 11 to 30 cm.
