New poll. Should we allow witty posts on Friday to Sunday or Saturday to sunday

So in regards to the previous witty poll, I screwed up. I set up the poll in a way that would split the vote. For people who voted for option three could have voted for option one instead. As such, I take full responsibility for that and have decided to make this more simple poll instead. There are only two options to see what the community fully wants

Isn't chinas move towards high tech/high quality growth the same thing japan did during the 1970s. Will china suffer the same fate japan did?

Like in terms of economy modern china and the old miti japan economy (1950s - early 1980s) is quite similar. Both are state capitalist exporters with national champions and strong economic planning agencies. Both are seen as successful rising economic superpowers that is beating the usa. Both started moving towards high tech growth. Both started seeing lowering gdp growth rates overtime.

In the japan context after the oil shock of the early 1970s, the japanese economy entered into a period of "high quality" growth. In that period, the japanese economy pursued more environmental friendly policies, welfare spending, pro social policies, and high tech industry. It was also a period of 3-5 gdp growth rate which while smaller than the past, was overall decent for japans 1970s-80s economy. Until finally japan exprienced a lost decade.

In china im seeing a lot of similar echos to this. I see similar economic policies and the similar 3-5 gdp growth rate. Will china follow the same path japan did?

So realistically is there anything stopping celestia from throwing the sun onto the earth, and destroying everything including herself?

Let's say she suddenly wants to do a murder suicide, could anyone stop her?
