don’t threaten me with a good time
…and all you want is to cuddle…
If I come back I wanna be spike
Does it have to get up after four hours sleep to work all day and go to IKEA at the weekend or does it just mess around it’s whole life in a warm ocean eating seafood and thinking gentle echinoid thoughts.
Until it gets torn apart and eaten alive by something else, literally dying by getting chewed to death - pretty much the way of nature.
In the end the world chews us all up and we die screaming and alone in our heads. Have a nice Sunday evening.

Oh I won’t be alone. My farts got the police called on me when I was alive how bad do you think they will be when I die
Noo😨
That nature thing sounds bad. Can we get rid of it?
More like I must consume everything thoughts
Imagine you’re born and you’re this

This looks like a shadow vessel from B5.
It is a model of one.
I wouldn’t know anything else so I wouldn’t care.
Imagine you’re the first person to actually get reincarnated, and you return as this with all knowledge of your previous life.
pure fucking bliss
Meaning that I just need to chill and feed from particles from the water instead of having to slave myself off for wage so a billionaire could dream of going Mars while trying to destroy the very planet we currently live. Don’t know what to think, but in Spike’s place I’d think that we actually need to do is a revolution!
Ever see the underside of these on a fishtank side?
I did once at a fish pet store.
I remember it looking like a hundred tiny suction cups.
But I can’t seem to find a good photo. This was the best I could find. Check out a real one if you get a chance.

It’s the mouth and the anus!
You have no fear. There’d be no point to it. All your defenses are passive. Fear is meant to inspire sudden action. You’re incapable of that, so your kind discarded that emotion millennia ago.
While holding that exquisite level of peace in your tiny mind, a fisherman plucks you out of the water so some rich dude can eat your gonads.
Wait is that all I needed to do to get some rich dude to eat part of my gonad collection?
Wait… Part?
*makes the noise of a catcalling porcupine
I’ll do you one better:
Imagine you’re born and you’re a crab who parasitizes the rectum of one of these.
Imagine you’re a human who pays top dollar to consume its gonads.
ahem
I could go look this up, but frankly, it’s your job now: elaborate, please.
I’ll be honest, I like it. It has a soft texture, nice mild buttery flavour, and can be incorporated into various dishes though is commonly eaten on its own as sashimi.
Yep, I love it too.
(I really miss living near Little Tokyo)
That’s a good idea, thanks dude. I am going shopping at ours next week
Excellent!
The Japanese delicacy “uni” is urchin gonads
there are some scifi biological spaceships, they look cool and amazing.
but using then is akin to being those rectal parasites.
What about the Treeships from Hyperion? Plants don’t have rectums. Also, as long as you help the ship out a little, it’s symbiotic instead of parasitic.
Wait this is important I am not a carb biologism but I would like to successfully imitate one someday. Which of the five crab families is this one from
Gives a whole new meaning to the expression ‘eat shit’
Isn’t that just the original meaning?
Damn it, I mean… I guess you’re probably right lol, but I felt like I was being clever there for a few minutes :'-/
You could never be born a sea urchin. They dont even breed, they just squirt gametes in to the water and hope for the best.
Oh, that’s kiki
Definitely not bouba
Imagine looking like a demonstration of magnets with iron shavings
I don’t appreciate having my photo posted without my permission, Isaac.
I think I will be okay because I wouldn’t have a nervous system that can think at that level, porbably
