The major neurotoxin component of blue-ringed octopus venom was originally known as maculotoxin, but was later found to be identical to tetrodotoxin, a neurotoxin which is also found in pufferfish and cone snails. Tetrodotoxin blocks sodium channels, causing motor paralysis and sometimes respiratory arrest leading to cardiac arrest due to a lack of oxygen. The toxin is created by bacteria in the salivary glands of the octopus.</p> </blockquote> <p>But, just to make sure a human doesn’t accidentally bump up against her, this octopus makes sure she’s brightly coloured and easily seen.</p> <p>Because octopodes are awesome that way.</p></blockquote>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41121931580http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41121931580Mon, 21 Jan 2013 14:01:33 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m7eb4sEIJc1rs60iuo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41119027091http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41119027091Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:27:15 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/ab4a3ece9cbb5c44160befdc1230cb6a/tumblr_mfummbukx21s00cf6o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://classy-spirit-style.tumblr.com/post/39216664336/check-out-my-blog-please">classy-spirit-style</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>check out my blog please # </p> </blockquote>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41118639850http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41118639850Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:22:35 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/fdb24415ed669e5af4303932910e0c88/tumblr_mgziew4lSi1qi4q8go1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41118554431http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41118554431Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:21:34 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/02321acd53f21e5350713dc4422e518b/tumblr_mgv9cdzTa51qep5peo1_250.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/d10b04d58f6865054beef19f220e5f4e/tumblr_mgv9cdzTa51qep5peo2_r2_250.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/7a982739b1118f581def448bd6aa018d/tumblr_mgv9cdzTa51qep5peo3_r2_250.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/331f213351dc2e959e6ca3523e2df189/tumblr_mgv9cdzTa51qep5peo4_250.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://lauranoncrede.tumblr.com/post/41002979233/audrey-hepburn-4-may-1929-20-january-1994">lauranoncrede</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong><small> audrey hepburn (4 may 1929 - 20 january 1994) </small></strong></p> <blockquote> <div> <div> <p><em><small>i decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally. i never expected it to do anything special for me, yet i seemed to accomplish far more than i had ever hoped. most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it. </small></em></p> </div> </div> </blockquote> </blockquote>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41118123036http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41118123036Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:16:22 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/f945380109448ae4d359a185cb13bf41/tumblr_mgveitQkAM1r13awro1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41118046770http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41118046770Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:15:25 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m00vqlADfR1qd8t4mo1_500.gif"/><br/><br/><blockquote> <p>British advertising.</p> </blockquote>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41117052321http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41117052321Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:03:17 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m44sw3th2f1qka6vxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41116914869http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41116914869Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:01:34 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m88ftg28291r6ic5to1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41116886812http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41116886812Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:01:15 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/04d32ad5d07ffd5476846719994f693a/tumblr_mgwx6uet4r1qbih6so1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41116723741http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41116723741Mon, 21 Jan 2013 12:59:21 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/43295532561eca5e74467c081d038eb1/tumblr_mgz21qGUGj1rzsk2go1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41116712762http://complimentfeesh.tumblr.com/post/41116712762Mon, 21 Jan 2013 12:59:12 -0500
