This is a fossil of Pohlsepia mazonensis, a 296 million year old octopus. That’s 65 million years before the first dinosaurs.
How does this make sense
• 8 limbs that think independently
• 3 hearts
• Blue blood
• Can edit their own RNA
• Instant camouflage that beats modern military tech
• No clear evolutionary path in the fossil record
In 2018, a team of scientists published a peer review paper saying octopus embryos might have come to Earth on an icy comet (look up panspermia and Syllipsimopodi)
They were here before dinosaurs, confuse biologists, and have alien level abilities…
I’m pretty sure they are aliens.

Keep cooking man this is what I come here for!
Maybe everything was created and didn’t come from cross species evolution. Now that’s a conspiracy theory!
if they’ve been longer on earth than us, then we are aliens
*inhale* If they were here before dinosaurs, wouldn’t that.. like… make US the aliens? *exhales smoke*
Always thought this, there’s some alien shit in the sea
Holy shit, I think you’re onto something here
I’ve been wondering about platypuses too ever since I found out that they’re venomous.
Octopuses and platypuses. It’s the puses and I’m not even joking!
This is new info to me and I’m very interested. My wife is a biologist so I’m going to ask her opinion. But pretty fucking crazy thought I like where this is going
I like this theory, although the conditions have to be perfect for any form of fossilisation, which is exacerbated by the fact that octopuses are mostly flesh and no bones/tough tissue. So unfortunately it’s extremely difficult to find fossils and therefore evolutionary direction regardless of panspermia
