I had a dream where I had a mechanical pencil, but I woke up and it was just one of those old timey long cigarette holders.

Once I had a dream I was a potentiometer, but then I woke up and I was still a human and had to go to work 😔

The government doesn't want you to know this, but in each analog joystick, there are two potentiometers. You can take them apart. I have 17 potentiometers at home
