  • I want those prism glasses!

  • I have neck problems, partly because of a whole lifetime of reading in bed. I wonder if those glasses would help...
    I also love love the tent but would never be able to justify it. Especially because I'd be reluctant to take it camping.

  • ::steps on soapbox::

    Those fishtank bookends are entirely too small to hold fish.  A goldfish (as shown) needs a heater and a bubbler, prefereably a light, and at least 5-gallons per fish.  A betta would be a better choice as they have less restrictive biological threshholds, but the bowls are still too small and have a very poor surface area to water ratio - meaning that you'd suffocate your fish in about a day.  It really ticks me off when designers don't do their research, and people end up torturing fish and other animals because they saw this really awesome fish bowl on Buzzfeed/Pinterest/where ever and are too ignorant to know better.

    Absolutely agree. While a lot of people that defend an environment like that for betas by saying they survive in mud puddles, just because they can does not mean they should. A beta, to thrive, needs something much larger than those little cups they sell them in at a pet store. It makes me so mad to see toilet bowl and sink fish tanks. Such a stressful environment. And if course that's nothing compared to the shoes and purse beta bowls. I don't even know what to call them.
