It is not a massive phenomenon, it is a tiny slice of a subset of one specific geographic area, it signifies nothing other than addiction and mental illness presents in many forms, and What This All Means is absolutely nothing for 99.9% of the population

Pandas have a digestion system for carnivores and had to twist their entire lifestyles around eating arsenic plants. They couldn't even figure out how to fuck in a zoo. It is morally correct to call them stupid

I think we should sack the capitol of any state with a "bathroom bill" and cart away the legislators who voted for them in chains, never to see the sun on of their homes again, but I do tend to get overly emotional and angry sometimes
we should absolutely cut off funding to red states and send feds to harass them. tit for tat until the neanderthals correct their behavior
@barackobama.bsky.social: "When I was POTUS, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate a governor or cut off funding for states that didn't vote for me... but that is contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work."

i maintain the correct position is "do policies to make it easier to have kids if people want them, but that will not solve it" and any effort to solve it beyond that goes to very dark places

If you're fear mongering about fertility rates, this is what you're asking for.
Fuentes, yesterday: “Our #1 political enemy is women because women constrain everything, every conversation, every man, everything. They have to be imprisoned. They are the ones that are hurting the fertility rate. They're the ones making us sympathetic to poor people, which are also brown people.”

I was so impressed with this story about measles in the Atlantic -- the depth of reporting it would take to weave in all these details so fluidly.
