cblj_backupGood morning, Internet! You are conspiring to unnerve me today.
Seriously, I have all these link to share, and many of them are just bizarre.
The least disturbing of them is still a little unsettling. This planter senses where the sunlight is and moves your plant around the room to get the best light. Check out those awesome stumpy little steampunk legs, or get a sense of it in action although I suspect the stop-motion means it's currently a non-functional prototype. My inner Jack Baker wants one of these even though I'm fully aware that I don't need or want an actual plant.
Relatedly, someone suggested I needed googly eyes to paste onto my Roomba, and a quick search for Giant Googly Eyes produced a purse made from craft googly eyes. I'm pretty sure I literally recoiled from the screen when that image came up.
(You can find more info about it here, if you are insane and wish to know anything more than PURSE MADE OF CRAFT EYES.)
And then there is the knitwork, which I feel kind of obliged to share now that the Cafe has its own Ravelry group. The brain monster hat is actually pretty awesome, but I can't imagine why anyone would knit the horse's head from The Godfather. Pure morbid cussedness, I suppose.
Finally,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
fiveforsilver and I got into a discussion of what "implanting the internet in your head" would actually entail, and it resulted in a very short piece of fiction that might get put on the schedule to be novelised once Jack and Ellis is completed.

At least it wasn't the goggle-eye purse, though I'm already considering where to get Humungous Goggle Eyes... *g*
