Pretty sure there's some worms or something that live by deep sea vents which breathe sulfur not oxygen and are believed to live forever because of this.

Central Nervous System toxicity. Also, oxygen at over 160% starts to get deadly on its own.

"now"? Remember that weatherman who threatened to shoot a young girl because she dared to ring his doorbell in 2023?

“A child just rang my doorbell. Folks you do NOT ring doorbells in 2023. My 6 was loaded. Keep your kids away”

"When going to the dentist is just as terrifying for the dentist"

There is a community here "deepsea" already, which might be better for that type of content specifically though.

I'd like that - but with identifying information (photographer at the very least).

 

"Sometimes, someone is obviously covered in red flags"

Much like The Joker and Harley Quin, a mated pair of Harlequin shrimp (Hymenocera picta) are vividly coloured, and have a close relationship centered around love and murder. While every carnivore kills to eat, most are opportunistic hunters or proper predators, stalking and hunting their prey for a quick kill. Harlequin shrimp are the creepy couple who drag strangers (sea stars) into their lair and slowly torture them.
