A startling discovery from the bottom of the southern ocean, a 'death ball sponge' and other phenomena that are reasons why the critters are at the bottom of the ocean. From the "southern ocean" which is all the ocean around Antarctica. So who's to say all the ocean around Antarctica isn't really the north ocean? I mean, who gets to make that call ... you know north/south up/down side/to/side and all manner of pseudo-intellectual mind games like that ... I mean is there really an "up" in space? ... Back to our plot line ... the 'death ball sponge' uses "tiny hooks" on the ends of its death balls to trap prey and dang if'n that ain't about creepy. So the 'death ball sponge pants' is one of thirty "new esoteric species searchers confirmed from different parts of the southern ocean" with research being conducted by the Nippon Foundation or Nekton Ocean Census in cahoots with the Schmidt Ocean Institute "and other partners" that were unnamed. So why were these "partners" unnamed? Seems to me that's a pressing part of this equation that deserves an answer. So the research guys/gals have a photag of the 'death ball sponge' and the image will be showing up right about now -
I dunno, the 'death ball' doesn't look all that ominous/deadly to me. I'm thinking if you're wandering around the bottom of the southern ocean, well, don't step on the dang thing and you'll be fine so long as your air supply holds out. You know it might take a while to dive to the bottom of the southern ocean. I'm not a diver so I don't really have a clue as to air supplies, 'death ball sponges', or walking around on the bottom of the southern ocean. But then all this certainly makes for some lively entertainment on Dia de los Muertos, see "official imprimatur here" -
Yes it is November 1, 2025 and remember that tomorrow being November 2, 2025 is day two of Dia de los Muertos AND the first day back from daylight savings bullshit. I wish someone would made a final decision regarding switching the clocks back and forth for one crappy dang hour ... takes me two weeks to reset my body clock and I'm getting to freaking old for this shit. Now for Day of the Dead Saturday machine art -

I think there are any number of icebergs sloshing around the 'southern ocean' and I can't figure out how the research divers were doing all manner of deep sea diving, collecting, and packing for delivery all the dang lifeforms the fuckers raped from the bottom of the 'southern ocean' ... while dodging 'southern ocean' icebergs. the relevant article did not mention that . 😏
