    I always wonder if the inhabitants of skyscraper apartments with big windows are aware of the existence of telescopes.

      Having stayed in a high rise hotel and taking a shower while forgetting to close the curtains, I can tell you, there’s a certain feeling of power that comes from standing naked in a window 47 floors above everybody else below you.

    I’ve stayed somewhere with very similar aesthetics, but I can’t recall where it was. That ceiling and mirrored surfaces specifically. TV wasn’t like that, though.
