I see a lot of talk about common species like sharks and whatnot when it comes to marine life which is cool and good but you know what I don’t see people talking about? the batfish
this is a polka dot batfish. look at his cute legs and sweet little face. absolutely incredible. such a revolutionary creature. I fucking love batfish and you should too

Friday, December 8.
N/A
Sometimes, precious little need be said. Today is just one of those times. Because today, we celebrate the tardigrade: dinkiest water bear of the oceans, the mountains, and deepest darkest space.

Today on CHUNK! FUNK! GUNK! We rate
the SEA BUNNY:
10/10 Chunk
9.2/10 Funk
10/10 Gunk
For Easter, I thought it would be fitting to rate the sea bunny! These little guys are REALLY little, they’re less than an inch long- Since they’re nudibranchs, which by definition have no bones or shells, these squishy little fellas get maximum chunk. Sea bunnies are super recognizable and adorable with their little “ears” and “fur” (both are actually sensory organs), high funk. Nudibranchs are slimy little guys, and sea bunnies in specific are actually super slimy and poisonous, so of course they have maximum gunk.
Overall Rating: 10/10
They’re so cute, like- they’re SO cute- LOOK AT THEMMM!!!
Sorry for disappearing for a while again! Happy Easter (for those who celebrate) and happy pastel bunny day for all those who don’t!
I personally just enjoy Easter for all of the cute pastels and bunnies everywhere haha

Laying in my bed eating far too much chocolate, kicking my feet, and thinking about how we still have no fucking idea how or where eels have babies.
