Nothing like a proposal for a modest amount of lower-income housing nearby to find out who your neighbors are.

one of the only global powers acting like the future matters
This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"

China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

reaching Kowloon in Shenmue II when I was young was life-changing.

this was the part that made me a Shenmue fan. It was the most amazing, lifelike, exciting place I had ever seen in a game, and finding out it was a real place started a lifelong fascination with Hong Kong and China.
As a kid, I always thought somewhere like Kowloon couldn't possibly exist. Those cramped streets, derelict skyscrapers, all those demolished buildings... people actually lived there!

Did you know of Kowloon Walled City when you first played Shenmue II?

you know what I just want people to appreciate the occasional classy-as-fuck layouts that were in peak EGM
not to mention the GBC right there on the horizon when Pokemon launched- even those games' minimal use of color made the upgrade feel interesting and had a unique branding synergy with the "alternate color edition" release premise.

There was a lot of bright, loud, colorful styling coming together

Mr. Sega: "Don't tell me. A guy walking down a neon-lit street beating up all manner of goons."

Yuzo *sighs*: "Yeah, sure..." *whispers* "...or the crushing pressure society places on gay people to conform... I mean whatever, it's not like you care."

fun fact! nationalized daycare has been proposed over and over and always shot down by GOP admins even though it would universally benefit society and the economy and is a cornerstone of developed nations

the GOP wages war on daycare explicitly to keep women out of the workforce and dependent

Most of the Tesla shareholder proposals are like "Tesla is an incredible company, but maybe we should make sure we have some basic accountability or make sure we aren't exploiting child labor" and the board recommends against all of them
