  I love how you keep calling the animals terrifying monsters, and proceed to show the silliest little guys anyone could imagine

  I love how the &quot;What the fuck is that!?&quot; level of lifeforms increases as we go further back in time. Its actually insane to think these creatures are in fact real beings and not someone else&apos;s figment of imagination

  Terrifying is a bit of an oversell for Tullymonstrum. When you&apos;re the size of a pickle that&apos;s pretty firmly in funny little goober territory.

  It’s absolutely insane to think that right where I sit, these monsters used to live. There’s a chance a creepy proboscis mouth fish swam right through the space my house now occupies.

  So, in summary: HP Lovecraft was right all along and the only thing that he got wrong was the scale of these eldritch monsters.

  The tullimonster clearly levitated and used its stalked eyes for finding tax exemptions and was bilingual speaking both abyssal and french.
