![Screenshot from a section of a Wikipedia article: Jewish tradition
In Jewish oral history, sea goats are mentioned. The story goes that one day all the creatures of the sea must offer themselves to the monster Leviathan. It is reported that a sailor encountered a sea goat while far at sea. On its horns was carved the sentence, translated as "I am a little sea-animal, yet I traversed three hundred parasangs to offer myself as food to the leviathan."[9][10]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:clur4ncepmvldmewd4k7asc7/bafkreiaowvaqx4jnmncfprh6gmna3rws5hwgbnx332y7cnrsxexhl4eobm@jpeg)

I never got the hang of Twitter/X or Threads, but I'm sure this will be totally different.
