"stop depicting blobfish like this, and blobfish isn't what it's called"

That specific one, as depicted, is blobfish. Blobfish is not a species, it's an individual. Like Greenboots.

Moisturised, Flourishing.

First picture was just bad hair day.

"Big Ugly" propaganda here. Only rely on their instagram selfies :P

Aww :[

Source please or I'll stick to my previously unchallenged image of ugly blobfish

Blob fish, and fancy blob fish,.

Gottit!

Makes you wonder if you're blobby because you're in the wrong environment.

How can it be in pain, and be a corpse?

What worst, is i found the depiction in children's book. It's kinda sad the myth doesn't get corrected as much because people justify it as entire different thing.

I thought that the Grandma Blobfish quest from Half-Genie Hero would age badly, but I didn't know how badly

Why not use both and turn it into a 2 panel meme?

Me when I have water

Me when I'm a human living in the modern world

I wish people brought this energy to the meat industry

So I don't need to lose weight, I just need to live somewhere with 1,470 psi of pressure.

Are you reading this, ConcernedApe??

Aliens do an Earth drive by, use a tractor beam to yank a human specimen through the mesosphere, log the name of the species as blisterface and fly away.

But a photo of a normal-looking fish has extremely limited entertainment value.

Remembers me....

The name information is incorrect.

Psychrolutes is the genus, not the species.

Psychrolutes is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Psychrolutidae, the fatheads and toadfishes. [...] There are currently 11 recognized species in this genus

The binomial name of the blobfish is Psychrolutes marcidus. But realistically, "binomial name" is not always the same as "proper name". There are a lot of animals whose common names include misconceptions, or even insults. Just look at the information about Psychrolutidae (that's the Family) above. "Fatheads" sounds insulting, and "Toadfishes" aren't toads.

I wouldn't have even bothered looking this up, except that the artist wrote the "proper name" so poorly that I first read it as "Psychrd Lutes". And the second reading, I misread as "Psychiro Lutes", due to the weird "R" that looks like none of their other Rs. I read it correctly the third time, but I have to wonder at the wisdom of not writing it clearly when you're trying to emphasize how it is spelled.
