I didn't know they sold an all-white LEGO set
LEGO Architecture all-white blocks. 1210 pieces for $141. I want.
Somebody is selling blank playing cards for $12
It took longer than I thought, but we've finally hit peak-custom-playing-card territory. From here on out, it's all downhill garbage. I mean, what more can be said about somebody who is willingly selling "custom-designed" blank playing cards -- no, for real -- for $12 a deck? Not only that, but they're also selling ALL BLANK playing card decks for $12 too! Collectively, that's $24 for two decks of cards that don't have a single ounce of energy put into them. What a sad day for the playing card community. There's been bad, but this is the worst.
Vincent Lamouroux's Bates Motel art piece in LA is still there (and still white)
I happened upon this by accident while I was driving down Sunset Blvd.
I totally forgot about French artist Vincent Lamouroux's "ProjectionLA" piece that covers the entire former Bates Motel (also known as the Sunset Pacific Motel). I read about it when it was done back in April of last year but never got a chance to see it in person. Over time, I just assumed it would be torn down completely and that Vincent's final piece here was just a last hoorah for the abandoned lot.
Nope. It's still there. Granted, it's not as white and pristine as it was when it was done almost a year ago, but it's surprisingly intact as an art piece. There are remnants of graffiti -- covered up with more white paint by somebody (maybe Vincent himself?) but overall the structure retains its stark whiteness compared to the other colorful structures around it.
Those who are willing can go into the Bates Motel and explore the white interior (there's a very obvious way to get beyond the fenced portion of the building...hint hint: check the rear.) but just know that doing so can get you arrested for trespassing.
