Nudibranch du jour for #nudivember. This one,doto greenamyeri, is the weirdest yet. The giant balloon things are their cert and used for breathing and maybe digestion? Weird! And they can be cast off and regenerated. Weirder!

A drawing of a grey and brown nudibranch with several fleshy "clumps" on each side that are circular in shape and marbled with brown, grey, and white.
Today's #nudivember is Doto greenamyeri, which appears to have convergently evolved to meet choux pastry.

Just delivering these donuts...

I've got a nasty headache, massive noise sensory overload and I smeared the ink immediately so today's Nudivember is going to have to wait until tomorrow.

wtf!! That's messed up!
13.11.2025 17:16 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0It's a ridiculous design flaw you can't move them even a couple feet. They should be held accountable for blocked sidewalks everywhere.
13.11.2025 17:12 — 👍 27 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I hate hate hate those electric rental bikes and scooters. People always leave them in the middle of the sidewalk and you can't wheel them even a little to move them out of the way and with my chronic back condition I can't lift them, so most of the time I just push them over to clear the sidewalk.
13.11.2025 17:10 — 👍 34 🔁 0 💬 7 📌 1Today's #Nudivember is a swimming Melibe. I haven't seen this species swim, but I have seen our local ones and they're extremely silly swimmers. They swim exactly how you'd expect a slug would swim, flailing about in a way that could never be described as graceful.

A drawing of a white nudibranch with several odd shapes clustered on its back. The shapes with what resembles patches of pink hair-like filaments on the upper sides.
It's another #nudivember double bill with the delightfully freckled Dendrodoris behrensi and the enigmatic, unknowable Melibe pilosa.

ohhh this is timely!! I've been scouring art museum collections for material for my daily 5min drawings and I noticed the flies and wondered what they were about. I like the idea they were painted to look like they're actually real to show their mastery of skill.

I'd recommend the manga Laid Back Camp, it's about girls camping and there's also Blue Box is about a girl basketball player.
