Blessed spec evo: Biblically accurate cephalopod

When our daughter was 7, she invented the 'Kicktopus' and it is better than every single creature shown in this video.

It's as good a time as any to post some more Boris Artzybasheff. This is in the category of "can be interpreted as speculative evolution even if that wasn't necessarily the artist's intention".

Some things are just not recorded in the fossil record, and maybe that's for the best.

Make cursed hybrids with me! 🤪

Randomly generate an animal for each colored section, and attempt to mash them horribly together! Sometimes it’s cute, sometimes you get a whale-beaver

It's time to post my "fakemon" project that takes characters from the DOOM video game franchise and reimagines them as Pokémon creatures.
It's "POKEMON RIP & TEAR"!

Fictional or headcanonical Pokemon evolutions generally qualify as speculative evolution (at least for this spec evo account)

Toolump's complete evolution, which diverges depending on what degree of sophistication your fighting style is.

While aboard a large coach, I became aware of a translucent SKY BEAST, staying just above the large skylight present over the vehicle's front half. Denser, whiter organs were visible internally, and two panels at its leading edge had horizontal bars interpreted as pupils. Oh yeah, this was a dream.
Bird's eye view, obtained as the coach traversed a narrow Devonshire road flanked with tall hedges.

In answer to several questions, I've illustrated the current prevailing hypotheses for mechanisms of airplane fertilization. Based on extremely limited observations, it's thought to be species-dependent...
Pencil sketch, as from a naturalist's sketchbook, depicting four possible types of airplane fertilization. In the upper left, two planes in flight are connected by a bumpy tube which is labeled "intromittent organ." (This drawing looks very similar to in-flight fueling.) In the upper right, two jets fly in close formation, belly to belly. Where their lower parts touch is labeled "cloacal kiss." Both of these upper drawings are labelel "aerial internal fertilization." In the lower left, two large passenger jets mate on the ground, one mounting the other from behind. No genitalia are visible. The drawing is labeled "terrestrial internal fertilization." In the lower right, a light aircraft flies low over power lines with airplane eggs already deposited on them. From the abdominal region of the aircraft comes a cloud. This is labeled "external fertilization 'dusting'".

Tanystropheus is an extremely long-necked Triassic reptile that was initially mistaken for a pterosaur. But what if that mistake wasn't as mistakey as we thought? Here's 2 Tanystropheus longobardicus using their neck membranes cooperatively to hunt fish while in flight!

after I hypothesized the glass of milk might eject its contents like a sea cucumber, @dianateuthis.bsky.social suggested it could be the new radially symmetrical model organism. Thus #SciArt
Lateral (from the side) and dorsal (top-down) views of a radially symmetrical glass-of-milk organism. It is a bluish glass, about one-third full of milk. It is triradially symmetric, with three arms and three faces. Each face has two eyes and a mouth.

I have Opinions about octopus mer-people; the way they are usually drawn gives them 2 mouths and 0 ani which is a real problem!!!
Thought I'd gotten it out of my system a few years ago with a silly comic, but my daughter just pointed out an alternative design. Thus, a coda
Two half-human half-octopus creatures drawn in pen and colored pencil on paper. They are standing like humans and shaped like humans from the feet up to the torso. From the chest up, they have the head and arms of an octopus, with the octopus's eyes protruding slightly where the human's armpits would be, and the eight octopus arms reaching up toward the sky. The creatures' skin shades from light brown on the human half to light purple on the octopus half. The creature on the left has a visible belly button and is wearing a white loincloth. The creature on the right is naked with its digestive tract drawn as an anatomical diagram and labeled with the anus between the human legs, the stomach in the torso, and the mouth a beak at the center of the octopus arms. A photo of a 1-page comic titled "How to draw an Anatomically Correct Octoperson." The problem of a "classic" octopus-human having two mouths is solved by combining to upper half of a human with the mantle and funnel of an octopus.

That's actually the opening to the mantle cavity. Their mantle isn't their head but their torso.

Cephalopods don't have the head-torso-limb body plan like we do. Instead, they have the torso-head-limb body plan.

See these horrifying but educational drawings by @dannastaaf.bsky.social
How to make a cephalopod. (With cartoony drawings) 1. Remove limbs. (Smiling human with dotted lines at shoulders and hips) 2. Attach to lips. (Human with flat mouth expression, just head and torso. Arms and legs are floating above with arrows pointing from them to lips) 3. See? It works. (Smiling human cephalopod with arms and legs around mouth. Drawing of an octopus shows anatomical similarity.) How to make a cephalopod, part II. Internal anatomy. (Cartoony drawings with instructions) 1. Remove urogenital and digestive exit holes. (A human cephalopod with simplified systems in its body drawn in different colors. X's are next to the anus, urethral and genital openings) 2. Redirect exit tubes to nose. (The systems are partially rearranged, with arrows pointing to the nostril) 3. Breathe out to excrete, reproduce, and swim! (The creature looks happy and is giving a double thumbs up with the limbs attached to its lips. Internal systems are fully rearranged and an arrow points outward from the nostril)

Weird. I can select photos from any album from any time. Which is why you’re getting the Las Vegas Natural History Museum cursed theropod. Also, it’s an excuse to post cursed theropod.
A dinosaur model in a museum display covered in chicken feathers. Their mouth is open and they look somewhat bewildered.
