Felthry being liquid has given me an idea: Soft, cushioned buckets for liquid shapeshifters to use as beds, or just to relax in.

Smaller ones could be used as chairs, too, if you want to melt your lower body and just solidify your torso and up.

I'm not sure why we're so tired today; we got plenty of sleep, I think. But this partially-asleep state is helping me feel _me_, so it's not all bad. I suppose this is what they mean when they talk about liminality.

*gently leans against @Felthry and swirls its liquid form* Mrll, I'm glad to have you around. <3

@quartzwing@dragon.style Good monring to you too!

Today is sataurday! If you haven't yet picked up your complimentary taurbody, now is the time!

@Felthry @Terrana@tootplanet.space I agree with Terrana. If our computer can run it, we should just get the PC version, or look into whether the PS3 online store is still open.

I'm a collector too, and having the ps2 version for our collection would be nice, but that can be a future goal if you just want to play the game now!

@emanate @Felthry I think we've seen a youtube video from either NileRed or NurdRage about how to extract it from pepto-bismol, too, but that requires some chemistry equipment that you probably don't have.

@tastymochafox We've heard people talk about amaroq a lot, I think that's an android mastodon client.

Of course, for all we know, it could be something completely different.

@emanate @Felthry If you can find a good source, bismuth isn't all that expensive, to our knowledge.

@quartzwing@dragon.style @Felthry Oh, it definitely would, yes.

@Felthry @quartzwing@dragon.style Probably very brittle and non-homogenous, due to mismatched lattice parameters.

@quartzwing@dragon.style @Felthry Felthry was thinking of having them be varied and presentable, though now I'm thinking of the possibility of engineering some macromolecular substance that contains every element....

I wonder what the properties of an alloy of equal parts every metallic element would be like.

@Felthry @quartzwing@dragon.style Good point on the titanium flatware, though.

@quartzwing@dragon.style @Felthry Multivitamins seem almost like cheating, but I can't see any reason to exclude them. Other than having a wall of vitamins looks a lot less interesting than a wall of miscellaneous samples of varied things.

@Felthry Clearly, lanthanides are hard to place.

Rhenium: ??
Osmium: ??
Iridium: Expensive fountain pens
Platinum: Catalytic converter out of a car
Gold: Jewelry
Mercury: Old thermometer
Thallium: ??
Lead: Old paint
Bismuth: Pepto-bismol

And everything after that is radioactive.

@Felthry
Cadmium: NiCd battery
Indium: Galinstan?
Tin: coins, anything bronze
Antimony: ??
Tellurium: ??
Iodine: iodized salt
Xenon: ?? (xenon arc lamps are too expensive)
Cesium: Some vacuum tubes used a caesium-alloy cathode
Barium: ??
Lanthanum: ??
Cerium: the "flint" of a flint-and-steel
Praseodymium: ??
Neodymium: magnet
Promethium: ??
Samarium: ??
Europium: ??
Gadolinium: ??
Terbium: ??
Dysprosium: ??
Holmium: ??
Erbium: Optical fiber equipment?
Thulium: ??
Ytterbium: ??
Lutetium: ??

@Felthry
Gallium: a gallium arsenide electronic component?
Germanium: a very old electronic component
Arsenic: Another sample of gallium arsenide
Selenium: A selenium rectifier
Bromine: ??
Krypton: ?? (joke answer: action figure of superman)
Rubidium: might have to go with a rubidium clock for this one
Strontium: ??
Yttrium: ??
Zirconium: Fake diamond?
Niobium: Niobium capacitor?
Molybdenum: ??
Technetium: ❌
Ruthenium: too expensive
Rhodium: also expensive
Palladium: PdC catalyst?
