Kaiannanthi is a fully grown, bill-paying adult. Sweet, but with a depth of flavour that comes with familiarity. Not edible. Unashamed fan of pretty much everything Neil Gaiman has ever done, will ever do. Invented the souvenir penny press but forgot to tell anyone.

chickweedThe coconut octopus is found in tropical waters of the western Pacific. It feeds on shrimp, crabs, and clams, and displays unusual behavior including bipedal walking and tool use; it gathers coconut shells and seashells and uses them for shelter.
It displays a color pattern with dark ramified lines similar to veins, normally with a yellow siphon. The arms are usually darker, with contrasting white suckers.

mtswIf conservative radicals who've stolen our courts were actually "originalists" they would take a very dim view of the government arresting people for no reason. "You cannot arrest someone without a good reason" is like the literal oldest thing in Common Law. But instead the doctrine is the nonsensical Qualified Immunity of "cops can do whatever they want to with no consequences." https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/supreme-court-rejects-ohio-mans-bid-sue-police-arrest-facebook-parody-rcna70435
