  • Honestly I think they made the right call wrt catalytic converters. The stuff that they turn into CO2 is a much more potent and urgent threat than the CO2.

    The CO2 problem should have been solved with fuel efficiency, but as we’ve discovered here, it wasn’t. After realizing the unintended consequences of their laws, they refused to go back to them and admit there was a problem, because admitting means they were wrong and they can’t have that.

    (Also passengers cars aren’t really the problem. At least they’re small fish, that we’ve been tricked into focusing on so that the real polluters can avoid scrutiny).






  • Absolutely. Generally with Shonen, protagonists tend to be idiots, which is frustrating.

    I’ve started reading Korean manhwa mostly now, because their protagonists tend to be competent adults.

    I’ve only enjoyed a few romance titles, and they’re all older now so I don’t know if they still hold up. My fav was Lovely Complex. They actually acted like people their age might act, with a little leeway for comedic overreacting.

    Idk if you would consider a Silent Voice to be a romance, but that manga was god tier.
