That squid I mentioned before has resumed its practice of floating above my bed in the early hours of the morning. Unlike the floating crab, it doesn't drip sea water, and it leaves enough clearance for me to get out of bed with bashing my head into it, so I wouldn't mind in principle. However, the issue is that this squid has something against me. It twists its tentacles, very deliberately, before my eyes into pairs of knots which cannot be differentiated by known knot invariants, and being shown this defect of mathematics always sours my mood for the rest of the day.
