Anyway, before anyone yells at me, I think there are real material conditions affecting how many, many people feel about affordability right now too, and guys who just want to point at charts and call you dumb are not thinking deeply about how people actually interact with and experience the economy
This woman is a handpicked Trump supporter from Arkansas and she is less anti-trans than the median Atlantic columnist
compounding this is lack of exposure to the "other side" i.e. severe poverty far worse than what people in the US experience (by and large). a friend from [poor asian country] went to WV for research on something unrelated, but was like "THIS is your poorest? theyre FINE you should see our poor"
I think its also that we're bad at scale. like people see a headline that says whatever company is laying off 20,000 people and its like, whoa, thats a lot of people, recession must be coming, when thats like what, 0.01% of the US labor force
was strange for me to learn that "i dont want to exist anymore" is not actually a common thought

NYT: US Fertility Rates Drop to Another Record Low The fertility rate has been falling since 2007, in large part because of a plunge among teenagers
There are some clues in the age breakdown: The fertility rate for teenagers dropped by 7 percent from 2024’s figure, setting another record low for the group. Since 2007, the rate for teenagers is down by 72 percent, and since 1991, when teenage fertility rates were at a high, the rate is down by 81 percent.
Why I don't trust anyone a little too obsessed about falling fertility rates

there are many horrors contained in the Trump admin's war in Iran. but one of the lesser ones is the way he has turned us into the audience for his reality TV show. will he or won't he? tune in at 7! grotesque voyeurism that implicates us all.
who is going to be the first congressperson to chain themselves to the white house or pentagon and why is it none of them
