One thing you can do is shun employees of associated companies (Amazon, Tesla, Facebook) and refuse to give them a job. That requires some sacrifice though.

They got there by getting us to the point we’re at now, by burning fossil fuels and offloading many of their social ills to other regions. By all means, let’s improve education and get more money in people’s pockets. But degrowth is much more likely to be accomplished through fascism than by raising the standard of living globally in a way that preserves regional independence.

How is that easy to accomplish nationally let alone globally? What if there’s places that buck the trend, or don’t want to incentivize low birth rates in this way?

There are so many great games out right now but, like many others, I’ve found myself returning to games like Old School Essentials and other games from the Old School Renaissance. I’ve been inconsistently playing in this game - https://attronarch.com/wilderlands - and dying a fair amount . That game is perhaps more lethal than most, but the stories I’ve come away with have made it maybe the best game I’ve participated in.
