This file is to be freely distributed among the public to help those stupid fucks1 the civilian population become aware of SCP-6395-J.

Description: SCP-6395-J is the designation for an ongoing event that has turned all sapient beings in Foundation employment and custody into anthropomorphic creatures bearing resemblance to aquatic mammals, typically fish (designated SCP-SCP-6395-J-A). SCP-6395-J is also a nomiclative hazard that changes the name of SCP-6395-J-A instances into "play on word" puns related to fish or aquatic animals. This also affects the name of organizations and items associated with SCP-6395-J-A instances.

Some examples of SCP-6395-J-A include:

Dr. Bass Clef, MTF Lambda-2 Lead2

Dr. Jackfish Bright, SCP-963

Discovery: On 4/1/2022 at 00:00 UTC, Foundation Sites 01, 17, 19, 23, 69, 237, and 420 were all infected with SCP-6395-J, which quickly spread to all Foundation personnel and sites by 6:30, including transforming the SCiP database into a "fish" theme.

UPDATE: As of 11:00 UTC, SCP-6395-J infection has begun spreading out of Foundation sites and infecting civilian populations. As a result, the clearance for SCP-6395-J's file has become public and distributed to the public. SCP-6395-J is spreading at a rate of approximately ███████ kilometers per second and is expected to have infected all of humanity by 23:59 UTC.4.
