      Taiwan makes everything anthropomorphic! They’ve got an anthropomorphic version of the mass damper on top of the Taipei 101:

      Why does it need a head for that matter? They could just build it to look like a urinal with a screen. This just makes me feel like I’m in a Rule 34 Astrobot piss fantasy.
