a few fun octopus facts:

their arms are similar to our tongues in that their muscle fibers are  oriented in three different directions 

octopuses are disconcertingly strong (anecdotal evidence says that a 15 inch wide octopus was as strong as the scientist handling it)

on that note that same scientist said that when her octopuses escaped she would have to run behind them, “like cats” (paraphrased from sy montgomery’s the soul of an octopus)

aquariums have “octopus enriching programs” so they don’t get bored and fuck shit up in their tanks

they are crazy smart like. really. really fucking smart 

but we can’t compare their intelligence to ours because our evolution branched from the same common ancestor so long ago we cannot comprehend how they think

it’s believed that their intelligence evolved when they lost their shell, and had to adapt to predict how countless of different prey and predators would act, how to avoid them, distract them, lure them or trick them 

they visualize how other creatures are going to act, which means they have have awareness that others are individuals which is a type of consciousness but i can’t remember what it’s called right now 

like, they use tools 

they have distinct personalities 

aquarium octopuses are socialized from a very young age and even though in the wild they are solitary creatures they become extremely friendly with enough human exposure

sometimes they dislike people for no apparent reason and will shoot water at them

they have three hearts 

each of their arms has a tiny brain that controls movement and sensory input on its own i shit you not

they are color blind and yet they can camouflage their color and nobody knows how 

they can change the color and texture of their skin faster than human eyes can keep up with it

great pacific octopuses are white when they are peaceful, and red when they’re excited 

aquarium octopus have escaped their tanks and slithered down pipes into the ocean 

escaped their tanks to eat the fish in other tanks 

escaped their tanks to go fight other octopuses cuz they were bored

octopus fight club

learned how to take photographs

cost thousands of dollars by flooding new floors

they can feel, taste, and smell with their suckers and all of their skin

they enjoy tasting their food by slowly moving it through their suckers instead of shoving it in their beaks

they can rewrite their rna. no, really

the only reason why they haven’t evolved to take over as the next dominant race is because they’re doing pretty well  in the ocean so there’s no need for them to adapt further 

there’s a ton more but i’m so overwhelmed by love i can’ think of any at the moment i’m going to cry

read the soul of an octopus by sy mongomery no she didn’t pay me i just love octopuses so much 

[why-animals-do-the-thing]

Also:

learned to shoot out the annoying light over the tank

hid in floor drains when caught out of their tanks by researchers

hid the shells of crabs stolen from a tank under a third, unrelated tank

Sy is a wonderful human and a great researcher. NEAq actually named a GPO after her in honor of all her work on octopuses. (Or octopi, or octopodes - they’re all correct). Definitely read that book.

-liked being splashed. Figured out that spitting water would have keepers splash back in response

- learned to spray 45°F water everywhere to demand splashes

-likes taking brushes from divers. Knows the best way to do this was to sneak up from underneath or reach over the shoulder

-will wait until keepers are looking away/distracted to grab stuff and knows exactly how far to sink down to get out of reach

-seriously octos are huge thieves. If you have something in your hand, they want it. As soon as they grab it, it belongs to them. There’s no food and they have no use for it? Doesn’t matter it’s their thing now.

-we lost a magnet scrubber for three days because one stole it from the interns. Every time she let it go and we reached a net to get it, she would snatch it out of the net and drag it back into the den. By the time we got it back she had torn apart the scrub pad

-honestly it’s like keeping an aquatic possessive 8-legged cat

This last post just tells me that Octopodes are aquatic parrots.

what if krolia was one the one who inspired keith to go to outer space. what if his bed time stories were about all the planets and galaxies and all the cool adventures his mom went on. what if he forgot them all, but still grew up wanting to chase after the stars.

In my opinion, the BEST Tsukki and Hinata interaction to date.

[psychopomp-namine]

So I just realized what happened in this particular play and I really love it. Tsukishima goes in knowing he won’t be able to perform well because of his stamina. He watches the players and doesn’t attempt to kill the ball with a block, knowing that he couldn’t, but instead he narrows the path of the ball so instead of a cross, it goes straight and Tsukishima just trusts that Hinata would be there behind him to receive the ball.

And note that even though Hinata already received the ball I think twice? in the whole game, I don’t think we ever saw anyone actually depend on him to receive it like they depend on Noya or Daichi. Like, everyone was really impressed with his growth and all but we haven’t seen anyone think “Oh it’s okay, Hinata will get this ball” the way Tsukishima did. And that’s because no one’s seen Hinata’s training and what he had to do to enhance these skills… except Tsukishima.

And this little moment is just such great development for both of them and I like how it’s a neat comparison to Kageyama and Hinata’s dynamic earlier on. Hinata, being the spiker, runs up to the ball and Kageyama follows him not wanting to lose - and this has been referenced a few times with Hinata calling out to Kageyama to toss to him etc etc. Here we’re seeing what is probably the defense version of this, but this time it’s Tsukishima calling out to Hinata to be there when needed. That silent “be there” with Tsukki knowing Hinata would follow through with a receive when he blocks a cross just like Hinata just knows Kageyama will follow through with a toss when he does a run up. I’m probably overthinking this last one but it’s just an interesting parallel to think about. I love seeing the dynamic between Kageyama and Hinata grow but the TsukkiHina interactions are still my favorite in the whole manga.
