Nature loves showing up and saying to
me “You think the ocean is spooky? Meet this!” And by this I mean
a Crinoid and by Crinoid I mean this feather star. I don't like it
one bit. Look at it. Just floating in the sea being strange as shit.
It lives in super deep water (30,000 feet) and shallow water because
fear knows no depth. Their mouth is located on top that leads to a
gut that is U-shaped. And get this. Their booty hole is right next to
their mouth! Talk about shitting where you eat. Most have more than
five arms and the versions of these with stalks use it to attach to
shit but once they grow up they leave. Like adults should. If I were
swimming (which means my yacht has been irreparably damaged and I
have fallen into the sea) and saw this I would cry ugly tears. Sexy,
ugly tears.
