"I’m not sure how I feel about the author; she mentions how aquariums often train animals to perform unnatural behaviors so that they would be more visible to the public but it was more matter-of-fact as opposed to discussing how this could be (an is imo) an ethical issue. She herself perpetuates the theatrics of it and it sometimes feels like she only finds octopodes interesting when they perform for her." — Jan 01, 2026 08:22AM

There are days when I feel so lightly connected to the earth that the threads that tether me to the planet are gossamer thin, spun sugar.
