Did the kraken exist? There are no possible fossils because the squid’s body is soft and alkaline. That’s why this is Krakken, with a double K, referring to the Nikken filter, the petrosexoracial* society’s promise of alkaline water to neutralize the body’s acidity levels, within reach, yet another myth. The closest thing to evidence of the Kraken’s existence is a strange scene at Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park in Nevada. Mark McMenamin, a scientist, claims that in 2011 he found the proof. A cavern with marks from the suction cups of a giant mollusk. Additionally, a group of reptile bones arranged in a way that resembles the pattern of said sucker discs. The story told by these remains is that of a giant kraken that, after having eliminated enormous swimming predator reptiles, decides to make a self-portrait with its bones: the oldest known self-portrait.
