    “I will now present no evidence whatsoever that falling birth rates haven’t been driven by economic factors.” Bull shit.

    Fucking unhinged. We’ve had what, three? “once in a lifetime” crashes since 2007, with skyrocketing housing prices and costs of living vs comparatively flat wage growth. Inequality is rising, fascism is making a comeback around the globe, we’ve likely already hit numerous climate tipping points, child labour laws are being rolled back, oligarchs are floating bringing back corporate towns, but sure champ, people having easier access to porn is responsible for lower birth rates…

Just seems like a lifetime of needless suffering.

  • Man it’s been over 25 years since I watched Titanic; 95% of the memory I retained of that film is boobs and the other 5% was actually Thumbtanic. I dunno how you expect anyone to instantly recall this scene from a single frame unless you were one of those hardcore fans who saw it nine times in the cinema.
