Shout out to Jose and Toronto for always taking care of us.Title Fight is going to be in town in 2 weeks at Sneaky Dee’s, so what better time to drop this video than now? This was shot with my friends at Master Plan, at the Air Canada Centre on Title Fight’s tour with Rise Against.
Excited for the show at sneaky dees
Devoted Deep Sea Squid Mama
Parental instincts aren’t exactly common place in the invertebrate world. Squid typically die after spawning, leaving orphaned squidlets to fend for themselves in the big bad ocean. But as in all of biology, there are exceptions.
Check out this incredible image of a mama squid tending to her (approx. 360) eggs — only the second species of brooding squid to be discovered, ever!
Man, the deep sea is cool. Cephalopods are also cool.
This paper was just published. Imagine how many more cool squid are down there.

Research reveals Beluga whale that could mimic human voices
“It may sound like a whale of a tale, but it’s true. Beginning in 1984, scientists in San Diego studied the sounds of a captive male Beluga whale that was able to mimic human voices.”
Read more here from The Christian Science Monitor.
So cool!
Breathing. Breathing is pretty important. If in doubt, start with that.

I want to swim with one of these.
This video was created by @Jason_Silva and shot and edited with my friends at Bravo Media, and is non-commercial and for educational and inspirational purposes only. This video was inspired by three big ideas:
1) The ideas of psychologist Nicholas Humphrey who has written of “THE BIOLOGICAL ADVANTAGE OF BEING AWESTRUCK”. Basically, our ability to awe was biologically selected for by evolution because it imbues our lives with sense of cosmic significance that has resulted in a species that works harder not just to survive but to flourish and thrive…
“Humphrey refers to consciousness as a magic show that you stage for yourself inside your head, which lights up the world and makes you feel special and transcendent… this magical theater provides a reason to live, a love of occupying the present moment, and a desire to sustain it into the future, that over time has proved stronger than anything else, and accounts for humanity’s swift and triumphant success—
Humphrey says “being enchanted by the magic of experience, rather than being just an aid to survival, provides an essential incentive to survive.”
“We relish just being here. We feel “the yen to confirm and renew, in small ways or large, our own occupancy of the present moment, to go deeper, to extend it, to revel in being there, and when we have the skill, to celebrate it in words..”
Our desire to understand brings exquisite pleasure… and feeds our exploratory voyage, our scientific inquiry, our technological development, and even our poetic self-regard..
Neat little video. Space rules.
