This is the number of houses built in Spain, we got about 11.000 last year. The population increase in 2024? 508.602 people.
It's not that the solutions are difficult or slow, is that politicians don't want to solve the problem at all.

The success of Spain? Don't be mislead, there has been practically no growth in real, per capita terms. PIB per capita in 2018 was 28k$. PIB per capita now is 29k$.
In the last 30 years, real salaries in Spain have increased a mere 2,76%. In the same time the UK's have risen 40%.

I think it dragged because they withheld too often, the NWR had 300$ runs but it was keeping them, for example.
As you can see, my custom expansion is on the right. It didn't do much this game, but it helped me figure out that I only need one extra 3M/5 train at best.

My learning #18XX game went well! While it went very long, everyone enjoyed it and wants a repeat. They were all so sharp I didn't even win!

A few weeks ago, I got a new bike! My goal is to ride 13 km each way to work? But I’m going to take my time, I need to find a good route.

I loved how colorful it was. The anime was drab, I'm glad they realized that a film where our titular Chainsaw Man rides a shark to battle against his love interest needed to be extremely colorful.
It's a bit messy at parts and the couple fanservice shots are dumb, but they are minor flaws.

They also gave us Chainsaw Hats at the threater. 10/10, would wear silly hat again.

The #ChainsawMan film was a blast! Constantly funny, fantastically animated and even charming and pretty at times.
Loved, not just to watch it, but to see others love it as much as I did.

I'm in a 1825 game with 8 players and I'm not sure of how to win at all! I opened the Midland Railway (Red) as soon as I could and I'm not sure if it was a mistake or not.

This episode confirms what I love about #Sanda: That despite being a comedy and having an outrageous premise, it takes itself extremely seriously.

Three player Tigris & Euphrates. What a tense game. I knew the player to my left was doing much better than it looked and his grin confirmed it!
I won on a tiebreaker, good thing I went for it!

Rest in peace Itagaki, gaming will be less fun without your passion and playful edgy persona.

Just watched #Sanda and it blew me away, by far one of the strongest first episodes I've ever seen.
Top-notch animation, absolutely deranged plot including stabbings, love triangles and Santa Claus. Unique character designs and humour carry the rest. Can't wait for the next episode

When someone accuses me of courting controversy or being overly negative for "clicks", I only wish they realized, not just that I put my time and effort, but that I actively lose money with every article.
If I wanted "clicks", it wouldn't be worth it.

I played 1853 online and we built this beautiful North-South network, allowing the Northwestern Railroad (NWR) to reach the bottom of the board!
1853 keeps surprising me with how every game the network looks different despite having no random factors whatsoever.

While the whole Evil Eye arc was a bore, #DanDaDan Season 2 was great. It's just a fun show, with utterly fantastic animation, great character chemistry and hilarious, downright wacky situations.

Last game of Shikoku 1889 didn't go too well for me. I gambled on the Diesels never coming out but they pushed for them anyways.
I cloned the game to see if I would have won had they not come out, but I wouldn't have won in that case, either.

Sadly, the art is not as great. Some pages are quite good, but it's mostly unremarkable. The author shines when she isn't afraid to stylze her characters, which is sadly rare.

There's also this whole chapter about how beating your husband isn't that bad, because, and I quote "This is the first time I've pushed him downstairs".
They are both equally at fault because he cheated some time afterwards. Absolutely putrid.

I like flawed or even downright evil characters, but the main character is just psychotic. I thought it was intentional at first, but no, there's never an explanation for this.
"I'm cheating on you with a woman, funny right?"
"That's not funny"

The premise is that a Wife cheats on her husband with Another Woman (AW).
Naturally, AW invites both to dinner. And then Husband invites AW to meet their family, mother in law and all. Do you know what happens next? They agree and absolutely nothing happens. Nothing at all, it's that dumb.
