I didn't know the word cryptid and looked to the root word "crypt", then at the picture of Trump for context clues. I deduced it must mean something like someone half-dead, foot-in-the grave, etc.
But I mused that the root could be cryptic, too 🤔
So I looked it up:
Thanks for a new word! Also, Sasquatch exists!!
Also cryptozoology: the study of cryptids (pseudo of course).
Also cryptofascist: Gary
Also: Disco Elysium.
Hah you could just have Google cryptids to start ;) But looks like you found your way! Yes, basically modern day mythological creatures
I like marijuana 😀
Everything is cryptic when you're high
Crypt is etymologically where dead bodies are hidden when it comes to how we got it from Greek. Necroid or thanatoid would be nice English descriptions of him too though.
