I am obsessed with octopuses. They are brilliant. They are smart. They change colors to match their surroundings (just as anyone would when getting ready for a party; hello, coordination!). They never cease to amaze. My house is actually called “Pulpo”, octopus in English, and my shower curtain features a magenta-hot pink octopus (fabunerd alert!). Scientists recently discovered an entire group of brooding deep-sea octopuses in the Davidson seamount off the coast of California. Check out the video here:
