    Who cares about pens and ink?

    Damn things got an HD screen all over their bodies, they don’t need ink to write whatever they want all over themselves…

    Eerie.

      This is a cuttlefish, not a squid

        They aren’t as cool, sure, but they’re still covered in chromatophores (and cuttlefish also have ink, so the point still stands anyway).

        I just couldn’t find a gif of one using them, so I got one of a cuttlefish. 🤷‍♂️

    I believe that is a cuttlefish.

      No, you’re a cutiel fish

      Incorrect—that is a Hawaiian Bobtail Squid. Cuttlefish have very distinct W-shaped pupils.

      Annoys the hell out of me that this is the top comment. Lol

        TIL! Thank you! It does look a lot like a young cuttlefish, though.

    Interesting. But did you know human beings have a sack and something called a pen-is. Perhaps given sufficient research it could be used for the same purpose. Food for thought.

      Maybe to write secret letters like with lemon juice and a candle, but this time with an UV lamp instead.

    Isn’t that a cuttlefish in the picture?

    source
    • mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      It is

      • mienshao@lemmy.world ⁨23⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        It is NOT. It is a hawaiian bobtail squid. Sheesh lol.

    Saw a video of an Asian guy in his canoe with the business end of a squid pointed at his face. He was lightly smacking it and, BOOM, ink bukake. Let’s just say there might be a lot more ink in there than you might suspect.

    Found it!

      Yo he leaned back into that. Is it still porn if it’s non-explicit staged bukake?

    If you train them to write symbols you show them, wouldn’t that make one a calamarigraphist
