This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

It’s a solid milky white colour with some large dimples throughout it. Only really transparent with a strong light source.

It’s the sleeve of my jumper, as for size it’s about 10-15% bigger than en emus from memory, mostly wider than taller.
