I am STRONGLY considering making a diamond-shaped lap blanket and then covering the whole thing in an outer assembly to make it into a flounder. That seems not overly difficult, and I have a sewing machine. It was, like, my grandmother’s or something, it’s old, but it’s electrical and it works.
Actually, I think it was my great-grandmother’s. Came around no more than a decade after electric sewing machines were invented, if I remember right. I’ll have to check with my mom.

Sleepy time, goodnight all.
the cat is purring lying on my hip bone and it is causing all the attached bone to vibrate. My entire hip section is buzzing but it’s adorable.
executive dysfunction is telling yourself for two and a half hours that you need to shower bc you smell like your workplace and you absolutely Cannot do Anything Else until you shower, doing Any Other Thing before showering is illegal!!! but you still haven’t for some reason??? you’ve just been sitting on your bed in a towel scrolling tumblr for 2+ hours thinking “I need to shower right now immediately” and growing increasingly frustrated that you are still not clean and you haven’t eaten or done your laundry either
How “Chameleons” change color
Many chameleons, and panther chameleons in particular, have the remarkable ability to exhibit complex and rapid colour changes during social interactions such as male contests or courtship. It is generally interpreted that these changes are due to dispersion/aggregation of pigment-containing organelles within dermal chromatophores.
But, combining microscopy, photometric videography and photonic band-gap modelling, we show that chameleons shift colour through active tuning of a lattice of guanine nanocrystals within a superficial thick layer of dermal iridophores. In addition, we show that a deeper population of iridophores with larger crystals reflects a substantial proportion of sunlight especially in the near-infrared range.
The organization of iridophores into two superposed layers constitutes an evolutionary novelty for chameleons, which allows some species to combine efficient camouflage with spectacular display, while potentially providing passive thermal protection. –src

Okay, TV show, so I know you’re trying to imply with these video clips in your commercial that you have footage of aliens, but… that’s a squid. It’s a really strange deep-sea squid that’s only been filmed a few times, but it’s a squid. It’s supposed to be here.
It is when the friend qualifies as a weapon.
