No I didn’t own this
I didn’t but I respected it as a cultural signifier of Science.

My nan had one of these and I coveted it so hard as a 9-year old.
We have one of these but the cats and baby all keep trying to eat it/pull out the strands so it’s fucked
I wanted a lava lamp but I think the shop was out of lava lamps so got this instead which wasn’t as good (quite noisy)
Proper lava lamps are exactly 100% as brilliant as you think they are. If you think you’re the kind of person who would enjoy having a lava lamp, you should get a lava lamp (if you still can? They use old-fashioned incandescent bulbs which are banned by those bureaucrats at the EU so you probably can’t even though we did a Brexit)
also the colour goes out of the liquid over time but I think you can refill them?
I had one of these, that was a physical globe normally, and a political when you turned the light on.
Physical in the streets, political in the sheets.
