This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I recently got a lava lamp. They take an hour or two to warm up before they become the trippy, moving “lava” they’re known for. Sometimes while warming, the blob inside becomes contorted into bizarre shapes. Usually they remind me of specimen jars in some mad scientist’s lab.

This time, it apparently transformed into a bird.
