Threads
A loose bundle of fine lines rippling across the frame. The bundle reaches for the pointer. Fills its parent: place it with absolute inset-0 behind your content.

Accessibility
- Decorative: the canvas is aria-hidden and ignores pointer events, so content on top stays clickable.
- Pauses off screen and in hidden tabs; reduced motion shows one still frame.
- WebGL2 shader; renders nothing without WebGL2, so keep a background color behind it.
