I like how this guy addresses this octopus as "boss" and "sir". Gotta give due respect to an octopus.
Screensavers and other Web Toys
I recently got a second monitor and needed something to put on it when I wasn't using it, and I was shocked to find that data visualization websites and "web toys" are much rarer than they used to be. So here's the list of websites I did find, focusing mostly on things that do not require constant input to continue to be interesting, and are web-based, so keep in mind they can go down at any time. (many gotten from a post by Simon Madine, 2012, many contributed by Mr.doob although I have included a selection below.) Screensavers: https://bouncingdvdlogo.com/ - Bouncing DVD Logo https://1j01.github.io/pipes/ - Pipes by Isaiah Odhner https://www.bryanbraun.com/after-dark-css/ - A Variety of Retro Mac Screensavers including flying toasters and aquarium!

The Tomb Of Böcklin (Detail), 1901 - oil on canvas. — Ferdinand Keller (German, 1842-1922)
John Schoenherr
“Everybody has experienced the defeat of their lives. Nobody has a life that worked out the way they wanted it to work out. We all begin as the hero of our own dramas, in centre stage, and inevitably life moves us out of centre stage, defeats the hero, overturns the plot and the strategy and we’re left on the sidelines, wondering why we no longer have a part, or want a part, in the whole damn thing. So everybody’s experienced this. When it’s presented to us sweetly, the feeling goes from heart to heart and we feel less isolated and we feel part of the great human chain, which is really involved with the recognition of defeat.”
— Leonard Cohen on why people enjoy listening to melancholy songs. From a BBC radio interview in 2007. (via elviskeepsmypictureinhiswallet)
