That is an incredible find.

If you imagine that the translucent glass is some kind of face shield, then it becomes a very stoic, no-nonsense riot or SWAT officer. If you imagine that the tiny little spheres on either top corner are the eyes and the top of the lamp is a silly little hat, then it's not disapproving as much as it is scared shitless.

Thanks for this perspective. The lightbulb works perfectly as a uvula.

Haha, oh my gosh, I wasn't even thinking of that perspective; I was seeing it as a big Squidward nose. This is so multi-layered.

Aye it was the giant nose that got me. Plus the amazing cheek line that goes down to the mouth!

::: spoiler I think I'm too abstracted for this one. I can see several things but none seem obvious; calligraphy, a resistor, an abstraction of an idea, up and down thumbs up is a stretch, kinda looks like a worker/security/enemy type of robot depicted in The Jetsons.
