Yup. I just needed a change from nudis :)

I've been making a point of not posting crustaceans for the last month... :)

Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

I went the other way, and... yeah, 120V sucks.

There is never a bad time to ask about horseshoe crabs :)

Could be. iNat folks went for C. dianae. I'm not sure how you'd tell the difference :)

We'll still appreciate the nudis if you post those!

Nope. It'd make me jump, but they're still adorable :)

It will be fishmas, and crustmas, and invertefest at the end of the month

Yup. Quite a few of the dives I did there had a bunch of fire urchins at shallower depths, complete with various passengers

Whaaaat? I had no idea they did this!
