Why is a crypto dork included in the screenshot when they just copied the first Tumblr comment

It’s actually pretty obnoxious that you think having crypto in a name means they’re into cryptocurrency

Sorry for seeing someone slap their “crypto” name on a screenshot while not adding any value to it and assuming they were a crypto bro and not related to any field of science

No that’s part of the post. The tumblr user probably shared the tweet with the text copied under the image to make it more accessible to people that use screen readers.

Nothing to do with cryptocurrency. Great podcast, though.

It’s about cryptids and other weird and wild topics.

Probably time for a rebrand.

I love it when a deep fried jpeg makes someone correct some misspelled keming that’s already correct.

Deep fried or not, it clearly says “coral.”

It’s not for real it seems like you think they meant for real but it is actually a joke, in the fashion that the other pats also are in fact jokes.

Could an octopus get a boner? 🤔

You do not actually require bones to get a boner. You do not even require muscles, it’s all blood pressure

What about our tentacle sizes? We have four that try to divide in a total of twenty, but they fail to develop. Some have even another one, but it can vary drastically in size among the population.
