The walk is interesting to me. This is like the Disneyland version of the Tokyo I lived in as a boy for three years. The Tokyo streets made for foot traffic do not appear real, black with white lining and clean as a whistle. One gets the sense of being inside an ant farm. The excessive signage is fairly uniform and uncreative although flashy.
But then to them written words are art. They're seeing art. We're seeing squiggly words.
Shutting down the entire economy is voluntary and nearly everyone complies leaving the whole city to non-compliers.
Denver Colorado is very much like this. I was amazed how easy it was for everyone to just go along no matter how damaging that was for a lot of vulnerable people.
A LOT of vulnerable people.
In the beginning a friend called and told me all the waitress at his breakfast place in a hotel were crying. It really hurts a lot of people who live paycheck to paycheck. A full month disruption means disaster.
It was disaster for a lot of people.
Yet everyone just went along. Most people did.
