Wearable chainmail octopus –
Piece created by weaving together over 15,000 anodized aluminium rings by hand. The result is something kinetic, fun, and strange. Artist: Vanessa Walilko

Item: Flail-Mask of the Pink Metal Octopus. While the tendrils are not fully animated, a quick flick of the head causes them to lash out and deal 1d8 Bludgeoning damage to creatures in every adjacent square, and an enterprising character might try adding blades to the tendrils to swap that for 1d8 Slashing damage. (Also armors the entire head and neck)

fORB.

Either brings great luck or great curses

Both.

Item: the fORB; shows more intelligence and independence than most orbs, communicating mostly through near-gibberish. Those with more experience with normal Furbies might be able to give more detail as to its behavior, but my first thought was the surrealism of the Pantry app, which grants the ability to transform objects: it can clean skeletons, carve carrots into totems of itself, and produce keys by consuming clothing.

The news: There’s a giant, 25-foot statue of Jeff Goldblum in London now

Me: what’s he doing there?

The news: reclining, his shirt open, his angle improbable, floating slightly by Tower Bridge

Me: reasonable. Fair. do we know why?

The news: something to do with Jurassic Park, we assume.

Me: Ah yes – the iconic movie that I always associate with London, England. So obvious. Of course. 

The news: experts are saying “This monstrously large Jeff Goldblum is how I like to imagine the man himself in his true form, or how he would have appeared in the age of megafauna.”

Me: sure, I don’t question that. 

The news: We’ve chosen to caption this image with “Onlookers goggle at Jeff Goldblum’s low-slung trousers and single nipple.”

Me: … are you guys….. okay?

The news: it’s just. it’s making  a nice change from current events

Encounter: giant Jeff Goldblum that materializes hovering and lounging in metropolitan areas, probably a sign or portent of something, although he’s not saying what
