Flensing is the removing of the blubber or outer integument of whales, separating it from the animal's meat. Processing the blubber into whale oil was the key step that transformed a whale carcass into a stable, transportable commodity. It was an important part of the history of whaling.

Not my nation not my treasure I guess? Sorry I'm not cultivated like that 💀 What is he known for/why is he not just another dad on social media?

A great actor and comedian. Mystery Science Theater 3000 is some of his work.

I think it's a joke hinging on the contrast between the cute picture and the apocalyptic message.

Makes sense, I didn't know the guy at all apparently. Having looked him up it's less funny to me tbh
