How China′s Gen Z sparked a doll fashion craze – and its impact on the economy (SCMP)
|
|
A booming market for miniature clothing has become the latest growth driver in China's “doll economy” – fuelled by Gen Z's passion for the toys and the emotional comfort they provide.

Americans Spent Less On Plant-Based Foods In 2024
Having long been limited to a handful of mostly soy-based products, plant-based alternatives to dairy and meat have made giant leaps forward over the past few years. Thanks to advances in food science, people can now enjoy a creamy oat milk cappuccino, have a tasty burger based on pea protein or even try chicken-free chicken nuggets that mimic the real thing surprisingly well.
And whether it's due to allergies, intolerances, voluntary diet choices or simply to reduce the carbon footprint of their food intake, many people are enjoying the new variety of plant-based alternatives to dairy and meat.
As Statista's Felix Richter reports, according to the Good Food Institute's State of the Industry report, U.S. retail sales of plant-based foods amounted to $8.1 billion in 2024, which is a slight decline from the previous year but still more than double of where the market was in 2017.

Disney Wants Men Back In Theaters After Years Of Catering To Feminism
A recent report from Variety claims that the top echelons of Disney are scrambling to figure out how to entice the male demographic back into theaters, specifically Gen Z men. Apparently, a media company alienating 50% of their audience base is, in fact, a bad business decision. The mind boggles...
Keep in mind, this is the same company that coined the phrase "The Force Is Female" and "Her-O" (instead of "Hero"...very clever). This is the same company that tried to embed gay and trans characters into movies for toddlers. This is the same company that actually went to war with the state of Florida to force them to accept LGBT and gender fluid indoctrination in public schools in opposition to the vast majority of the voting population.
Finally, this is the same company that tried to bait and switch legendary male heroes for feminist "Girl Boss" heroes in every significant...
