snowman with protective rubber skin

I am always birdposting in my mind

[ID: A photograph featuring wall tiles. In a gap, a shark is doodled on the grout. An arrow points to the shark from writing saying “grout white shark.” End ID.]

This reminds me of that old trollface comic where the guy just puts the tv on the edge of a building.

"focaccia, serves 4" yes all 4 me

"tiramisu, serves 2" yes all 2 myself

“Pie, serves 8” yes I 8 it all

"Cake, serves 10" yes I in10d to finish it

Wild caught clownfish will be like ‘hm you see, the anemone you got me is a slightly different color and tentacle width than the one I had back home, so I will not begin hosting it. I’ll be a sort of wandering ronin for the rest of my days.’ And then a captive bred clownfish will be like ‘ok so I have this curved rock I found and I just sit above it and it take care of me 👍’

This kinda suggests that living in an anemone is, at leat in part, a learned behavior, which seems fascinating to me.

It is! Its become a sort of common trick that you can teach a clownfish how to preform hosting by showing them videos of an anemone hosting a clownfish, until they’re like ‘wait I can do that too!’
