I hope everyone watched the documentary, My Octopus Teacher. It’s playing on Netflix. It won the Academy Award this year for best documentary. You get to see an octopus in the wild develop a real friendship with a human being. If you still want to eat calamari after seeing this film, then something is mentally wrong with you. It is sad that these underwater friends of ours not only have to deal with the onslaught of garbage, climate change, and pollution, but they also must hide from every low-end chef on the planet. Can’t be an easy life. Let’s start thinking of them as neighbors and not as deep-fried appetizers.
