Expressing Gratitude to SuperYachtFan Most people whose brains have not been broken by the internet have hailed My Octopus Teacher as deeply moving, with the Cut dubbing it “the love story we need right now” (and me, a killjoy for desiring more science – though I note that more science generally guards against any suggestion you had sex with your subject).
