Culture warbles

[Netsy], (2019). Riveting drama! Three episodes, each covering a different police interrogation. Not yer typical cases, plus topnotch acting and subtle continuity. PG tells me that "Criminal: France", "Criminal: Spain" and "Criminal: UK" are just as good - and all different again.

[DC], 2023. I wanna say both writing and art are slightly rougher than in the first volume. Regardless, they keep the deaths and twists coming, and I was satisfied by the grand reveal. The appendix of little prequel tales felt inconsequential after everything that had transpired.

[Switchy-poo], also 2023. Had been neglecting this system, not to mention this acclaimed platformer I've had for bloody ages. It's magical. Would you expect anything less from a flagship Nintendo title? Am presently using Mario rather than an easy-mode chara. That may change!

Watched a news report today on how Mongolia is planning to move its capital from Ulaanbaatar to a new city to be built on the ancient site of Kharkhorum. There are arguments for and against the shift, and I'm far from qualified to say which side outweighs the other in this instance. I do believe climate, rising sea levels, overcrowding, poor infrastructure, pollution, war, internal politics, etc., etc. will force additional countries to consider such relocations in the years ahead. Indonesia, South Korea, Egypt, South Sudan and Equatorial Guinea are apparently planning similar monumental moves.
