The UN was created after WW2 to prevent another world war and have a diplomatic channel between all countries that is always open. It's far from perfect, but it's definitely better than what we had before.

Some things I do:

• Read a book
• Learn/practice a language
• Go cycling or hiking through nature
• Take the train to a city or town I haven't been to before and explore

Well, it's not like you're willing to cut ties with the West and align yourself with Russia either. Instead you're trying to thread the middle ground by keeping your head down and keeping up trade with both. You're not taking a stance, which is exactly why you're not a political world leader.

People feeling entitled on the internet were always a thing.

Those 2019 people were just another year away from finding out what an actually crazy year looks like.

I doubt Nintendo will put Denuvo in any of their games, they've always been very mindful of their games being playable even without an internet-connected Switch.

Not sure how they compare in environmental impact though.

Eh, not only. Some of my favorite Ghibli films are Non-Miyazaki. I mean more generally things like their old-school animation techniques (don't want another Earwig), meaningful storytelling, not chasing current anime trends etc.

He's not resigning though, they already announced he's not done making films.

It's possible. They write "Without admin or mod interference" so they can just have a community where admins or mods never interfere with anything. Would be horrible, and undoubtedly full of illegal content in no time, but possible.
