Way back in the early 2000's, I worked at a design firm. VRML was in its infancy. A coworker (a senior designer I respected) had a sign over his desk that read; IF YOU THINK VIRTUAL REALITY IS INTERESTING, YOU SHOULD TRY ACTUAL REALITY.
The drollery of colonialism. Overall one tyrant replaced another. One tyrant was British. Then deciding China was rising and England busy collapsing that tyrant was asked to give control to China. China now kills the goose that laid the Golden Egg.
You know... I reckon deep down, Klaus and his self-proclaimed elitist buddies grudgingly respect our will and tenacity. Not to mention our ability to exercise critical thought processes. Perhaps in the end we'll be granted the small gift of a choice of tasty sauces to pour on our bugs.
Many years ago I subscribed to National Geographic monthly magazine.
One cover featured giant dog cages stacked 3 high where the elderly/indigent
elderly could sleep. I read those issues to my boys in the evening for a form of
home schooling. Then they outgrew that...and I brought the magazines to the
library. I wish I had saved that one. I searched (B4 internet) high and low but could
not obtain another copy. The story was the "feature" article and it went all in on
the lack of space for housing in Japan. Tight spaces, expensive housing/tiny housing,
dorm living, are a norm in crowded Asian cities. Now Hong Kong has the cages.
