I’m getting a hour-glass.

Much better than a regular timer when you’re doing the “Pomodoro” method and have to get something done. But I also have a nice lava-lamp, which is great when you’re listening to music. And a record-player for vinyl CDs. And fidget toys for my ADHD and Autism (to stim while I’m doing something).

I’ll be honest: I need eitiher:

Portability

Analog

If I can’t carry it or if it’s not mechanical, the i don’t care.

    Err, machine spirits? Lava-lamps as divination mediums?

    That last one sounds cool, though just a bit confused here. 😅

        …I thought this was the brainworm talking, Mr. Kennedy-sir, I meant no offense!

          The worms have melded with me and we are now one consciousness.

          I have met it out there, where the void is tormented by gravity. It seems to have taken a personal interest in us. There are mathematical proofs that it loves us, but love to the Worm is not like love to anything that subsists in ordinary space.

            Oh God, you’re becoming an eldritch horror!

            Dammit, Kennedy, don’t get taken by the color out of space! You have so much to live for! Fight it, dammit!
