Sound on to hear the water running through pebbles
It appears I reblogged that on the wrong day. Too bad. It’s still time to go in the ocean.
It’s World Ocean Day!!! Go In There
This spectacular squid is the robust clubhook squid, Onykia robusta, one of the largest species of squid in the ocean. This juvenile measured about 60 centimeters (two feet) long, but adults can grow to over three meters (almost 10 feet). 🦑💫 Large body size has many benefits, including protection from predators. But growing big is a challenge, particularly for squid. By virtue of their molluscan heritage, squids possess a set of traits—including high energy demand, energetically costly locomotion, and low blood-oxygen-carrying capacity—that presumably restrict most species to smaller adult body sizes. But clearly, there are exceptions. The deep sea remains one of Earth’s least explored habitats, and extraordinary animals like the robust clubhook squid remind us how much there is still to discover. Questions about how and why some deep-sea species grow to such impressive sizes continue to inspire research, fueling new discoveries about life in the ocean’s depths.
"Do you ever dream of land?" The whale asks the tuna.
"No." Says the tuna, "Do you?"
"I have never seen it." Says the whale, "but deep in my body, I remember it."
"Why do you care," says the tuna, "if you will never see it."
"There are bones in my body built to walk through the forests and the mountains." Says the whale.
"They will disappear." Says the tuna, "one day, your body will forget the forests and the mountains."
"Maybe I don't want to forget," Says the whale, "The forests were once my home."
"I have seen the forests." Whispers the salmon, almost to itself.
"Tell me what you have seen," says the whale.
"The forests spawned me." Says the salmon. "They sent me to the ocean to grow. When I am fat with the bounty of the ocean, I will bring it home."
"Why would the forests seek the bounty of the oceans?" Asks the whale. "They have bounty of their own."
"You forget," says the salmon, "That the oceans were once their home."
Last year I finally had an excuse to illustrate this simple little Tumblr story I've had bookmarked forever for class.
I hope you like it :]
Cross Sea- Photo taken from Phares des Baleines (Lighthouse of the Whales) on Île de Ré, by Michel Griffon 2011
Cross sea is an unusual, rare but nevertheless very dangerous wave pattern. It occurs when waves from different directions meet (cross) each other. The overlapping of these wave systems creates a chessboard-like pattern, which on the one hand has an enormous suction and the waves, created by the overlapping, can suddenly become 10 metres and more. This pattern is able to drown swimmers in shallow coastal areas and sink ships in deeper areas.

Here it is, the poster for World Eel Day 2026! It's time again to celebrate eels of all sorts in any way you can!
Oh? "How do I part-eel-cipate?" you ask? Well, from the eel man himself:
"There are lots of ways to get involved with World Eel Day. Your eel inspired activities, photos, resources, art, outcomes, thoughts or messages can be shared online on all social media platforms with the hashtags #WorldEelDay2026 #WorldEelDay
For example, you could organise an eel event , draw or make an eel or write a story or a poem. Remember to tag or collaborate with @eelsuitcase on instagram"
Basically, get cr-eel-ative! (these are not my best work)

ITS GREAT LAKES AWARENESS DAY!!!!!
On this excellent day, be aware that this is the largest group of freshwater lakes in the world, covering over 95,000 square miles and reaching depths of over a thousand feet. They are beautiful freshwater seas.
Also when you die in these lakes, the very cold, oxygen-poor conditions at the bottom preserves you perfectly for all eternity. You will not rot and nothing will eat you. You will exist for as long as the Great Lakes do. Many shipwrecks still have the crew on board. Be Aware.
that last paragraph only applies to Lake Superior, the northernmost Great Lake! to be fair though, Superior is bigger than all of the other Great Lakes combined.
and that's not to say that the other Great Lakes aren't equally dangerous! each of these things earned the 'Great' descriptor for a reason, and the only reason they aren't all classified as inland seas is because they're not salty.
Lake Michigan in particular is really good at creating waterlogged corpses and hiding them in weird places, and every single Great Lake is full of shipwrecks and ghost stories.
and you know what? 10/10 I would let these things eat me anyways.
be aware!
fun optional addition, LAKE SUPERIOR VS THE EAST COAST
you could drown an entire small country in this thing
Great Lakes Awareness Day is May 5th this year!
LET'S GO LAKE WHO NEVER GIVES UP HER DEAD LET'S GO!!!
Great Lakes Awareness Day for 2026 is May 4. You only have a few days to get ready!
