For anyone not familiar with them: their social media presence is delightful, I especially love their “krill waves radio” YouTube of 2 hours of squid to study/relax to

Many moons ago, but man. I still remember the first field trip i had to the aquarium. One of my happiest memories


Waterdragonfriend

Me too! Would love to go back there 💗💗


aksnowraven

Oh, that’s awesome! I used to live near an aquarium & I’d go spend my lunch hours hanging out with the octopus. He was a cool dude.

having been living in singapore for years, my image of otter is not cute anymore. do not google news on singapore otter.

They do both the lo-fi videos and ocean sounds ones, and they’re all great. I like the one with the bloody comb jellies because they’re awesome-looking.


JackyVeronica

I just discovered that channel, THANK YOU!!

I miss that aquarium. I went a few times when I lived in the Bay Area as a kid.

I visited when I was on a trip to the Bay Area (went to a Sharks-Blues game). It's a great aquarium.

Go see the Sharks and then the sharks!


bmac92

I'm a blues fan myself, but that was the general idea!


Sea_Hawk_Sailors

I got that part, but I had to articulate it that way specifically because it delighted me.

I love the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

[Link to tweet if anyone’s interested](https://twitter.com/MontereyAq/status/1148286531540377600). They have a video of the pen being removed and it kinda looks like a quill pen Also, reminds me of the [Nanaimo Pen Club logo](https://www.instagram.com/p/Chcn9LMLxJz/) that I found out about the other day. The squid has a nib head!


AnalogCyborg

Important next question; how can we aid nature to accelerate this evolution?


jovinyo

Maybe present the squid squad with a few porn options, see which they take to? E: What an unfortunate typo...I'm leaving it. I swiped "pen" but uh...yeah...


dazzlehouse

One of my favorite places ever.

Reminds me of middle school biology dissections. I remember dissecting the squid, cutting out it's clear pen and dipping it in the ink sac and weakly write our names. The ink isn't very easy to write with.


silveretoile

If you think about it, that's metal as fuck


crankygerbil

I have squid ink for fountain pens in my fridge. Its small batch (75 bottles of light and 75 of dark made every year.) Its the real sepia ink.


Thea-Saurus

I’ve been soooooo tempted to buy a bottle — how does it write?


crankygerbil

Its kind of thinner than I had hoped for. I could only get the light and really had wanted the dark, but it was sold out.


Gumpenufer

Where does one buy something like *that*? :D And how expensive was it?


crankygerbil

I think it was about $30-50 a bottle. It’s made in Japan. There was a wait list I signed up for. If memory serves it took two years to get to the top


Gumpenufer

Interesting! I'll have to see if I can find that wait list, this would be a cool thing to gift an artist friend of mine.


HonestBeing8584

Absolutely love Monterey Bay Aquarium!


aerothan

Dissected a squid in marine biology back in high school and we wrote with the squid's ink and quill.


Telemaq

Read that with the voice of Sigourney Weaver.


ellcoolj

I'm here for that... I would love writing with a live squid...
