I’ve always loved flashlights. Yes FLASHLIGHTS with an A!!! Anyway, apparently not many people share my rather niche interest.

So I ask you, fellow Lemmites, what are your hobbies and weird obsessions that you can ramble on about for hours?

Please feel free to ramble on about your passions here. Maybe you’ll find some likeminded individuals!

    I expected something like “yukka” or “rubber plant” not “alien plant with eyes”.

    Thank you for the article though!

      After going through the paper, it’s not just “alien plant with eyes”, but rather “alien mimic plant with eyes”! This plant “sees” other plants around (above?) itself and changes the shape of its own leaves to match those of the other plant.

      I wonder if the effect can be chained, and if so, how long the chain could be? I’m imagining an alien mimic plant with eyes mimicking an alien mimic plant with eyes mimicking an alien mimic plant with eyes mimicking the first alien mimic plant with eyes.
