The recent opening of a new solar farm in Haeju, South Hwanghae province, marks a turning point in North Korea’s solar energy production. This facility has the highest capacity for a single installment—10 megawatts—in the country to date and is indicative of a larger trend.

North Korea’s solar energy sector is not only expanding at a greater scale than has been seen in recent years, the approach to solar is shifting. Several large-scale solar projects are under construction or have recently been completed. However, unlike past solar projects that were principally designed to provide electricity to the facilities where they were installed, these new projects are reportedly feeding into the larger electricity grid. As North Korea works to modernize its economy, large-scale solar energy production seems to be an important part of meeting growing energy demands.

I'll explain how it often happens that trans women are marginalised and kicked out of groups for really minor infractions (or even for no infraction at all), and he'll often say something like "Thanks for the info, that's worth being on the look out for, if it comes up."

Then I'll bring the conversation back to the example of the specific trans woman in the local area who had a bad thing happen to her at a trans group, and it'll be straight back to "Oh, I don't think that can be right, she must've done something worse."

México City was "modernized" to be appealing to tourists, not functional to people living on it. We have a housing crisis, gentrification issues, several problems with public transportation, and the government has tiptoed around those to prioritize appearances.

Madres Buscadoras, groups of mothers that search for their missing family members, have been ignored and criminalized by the president, attacked by cops guarding the stadium, alongside other protesters like farmers, teachers and students. Students and reporters were arrested without explanation, threatened with violence (women with sexual violence) and then released.

Adding to this, the number of missing people in the country is 133,000. Twice the capacity of the Azteca Stadium. Families tried to raise awareness by pasting posters with the faces of their missing people around the stadium. The governor of Ciudad de México sent workers to take them down.

To avoid "showing a bad picture of the country" streets around the stadium are being closed, hours before the games, in order to deter protestors. People living in this area (like myself) are unable to move freely.

Our president, Claudia Sheimbaum, on one of the morning reports, said México is happiness, said we don't have issues, criminalized the protestors and said they want to show a bad picture of México. Avatar fans actually compared the report to this same scene, the "There's no war in Ba Sing Se" scene.
