🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨

Following months of observation, researchers have confirmed rumors that the Pacific Pals have been spotted dusting off their safety pin vests and practicing their moshing.

Evidence includes elevated levels of eyeliner, septum rings, and subjects repeatedly claiming that emo is not, in fact, dead.

Based on these findings, researchers have concluded that the Pacific Pals will in fact be returning to their natural habitat: Warped Tour 2026.

Sea you in July! 🧷🖤 🌊

Happy World Otter Day from Elsie!

Today we’re celebrating our favorite snack queen and all of her fuzzy ocean cousins.

Otters may be cute enough to deserve their own cake, but they’re also ecosystem VIPs. Sea otters help keep kelp forests healthy by munching on sea urchins, which gives kelp forests room to grow and support a whole community of marine life.

Drop a shrimp in the comments to thank Elsie and her otter relatives for keeping the ocean otterly amazing!
