Another bonus — we have stickers.
Many die-cut stickers are scattered on a table. The stickers show the logo of the U.S. National Science Foundation. The logo is a blue-toned map of the globe with the letters NSF in white on top, surrounded by a gold spokes.

Hello, linguists! Are you attending #LSA2024? Would you like to learn about how @NSF can support your research? Would you like to chat with a friendly @NSF program officer? Do you like stickers? Well, do I have a thread for you… 1/x
This image shows about a dozen die-cut stickers scattered on a table. The stickers display the logo of the U.S. National Science Foundation. The logo has the letters “NSF” on top of a blue abstract map of the planet Earth. The planet is surrounded by a set of gold spokes.

The rabbit-duck illusion, in sillouette. In pumpkin.
A carving of the rabbit-duck illusion in a pumpkin. The illusion is that the object looks like a duck from some views but like a rabbit in others. There is a candle in the pumpkin so the rabbit-duck object is lit from the back.

Ouch — hope this is one effect you don’t replicate! Might I suggest my strategy for getting through these situations…
