Masking tape and storytelling! Calcium pills and Scandinavian gods! Stop signs and distant relatives. None of the above mentioned things are going to be featured in this post, although they are extremely noteworthy. But all the things in the universe are interconnected, so there's still a chance that this stuff will make sense for someone. So - radioactive weasels!

Robot Long Exposure Light Painting

Mini-Matchstick Gun
...can also launch toothpicks "to skewer innocent fruits". And don't get any other ideas! (By [King of Random], via Hackaday)
3D Printed Sugar

MIT Academics Design Book That Lets Readers Feel the Protagonist's Pain
I can see the potential, but please don't make me read horror stories! (Via Designboom)
Cuboino by FELIX HEIBECK
While we've seen quite a few marble track systems, this one allows you by far more control than others. And it is well-designed and laser-cut. (Maker's website)

Now if universe would be so kind in all of it entropic interconnected goodness and bring me some hot chocolate, I will be very happy.
