There would definitely be more affordable Backrooms in your town if so much of the inventory weren't going to Airbnbackrooms.

Did you know they had to recreate all the Backrooms on a set, cause it's too expensive to shoot in the real Backrooms now.

@twistartups @Lons @Jason Everyone is against surveillance until their friend or family member gets murdered or kidnapped and no one knows what happened.

Would you want Flock Safety active in your neighborhood? @Lons' house got broken into multiple times in LA. @Jason: "So you're telling me you wouldn't want Flock on your street to catch the guy?" Lon: "I'd rather double-bolt my door than live in a surveillance state." Where do you land?

@Jason @Scobleizer @twistartups I mean, you guys like 1984 references... Are Big Brother's telescreens not an issue so long as you're not actively undermining The Party?

@Lons @Scobleizer @twistartups You two will never agree, as one of you has kids and one doesn’t. That is the deciding factor in this debate 90%+ of the time Agree to disagree, and find the least painful path for each of you!

@Scobleizer @twistartups @Jason The idea that the ONLY reason someone might not want to be surveilled 24/7 is that they’re a criminal is the exact propaganda used to expand the surveillance state.

@twistartups @Lons @Jason I have cameras everywhere. Inside and outside of my house. Life is just fine. But then I am not doing cocaine or doing other illegal acts.

“It’s not about follower count anymore.

Obrigado, Sam Neill, por olhar pra uma paisagem vazia com tanta emoção que me fez acreditar, naquela sala escura de cinema em 1993, que dinossauros eram reais

DIGGER looks fun but after all the hoopla around Tom's make-up and transformation, I expected him to look a lot less like himself. Just aged up by a decade or so. I guess he's doing a voice too...

People rightly talk about the film's groundbreaking digital effects, but the heart of Jurassic Park is the scientist overwhelmed with awe at seeing the creatures he's studied his whole life alive and in the flesh. And it doesn't work unless Sam Neill sells the hell out it.

@BradGroux Yes but "infinite bookshelves powered by love" is funnier.

TARS literally tells Coop while he is in the tesseract, they "constructed this three-dimensional space inside of their five-dimensional reality to allow you to understand it." It wasn't powered by love, he was driven by love, and they knew that when they built it for him. They knew he'd sacrifie himself to save humanity (and his kids). To them, time is represented as "physical dimension." Brand said, "to Them, time may be just another physical dimension. To Them, the past might be a canyon they can climb into, and the future a mountain they can climb up." TL;DR - It wasn't a bookshelf built on love, it was a puzzle they built for him to solve, and only that he could solve... and he did the exact same thing to Murph by using her "ghost" and his watch.
