  1. See, the rate HAS been declining, but it was made up for by the overall population being higher. What's new here is that in the past few years the absolute number of births is so low. And it's not like Gen Z is small or anything...
  2. They're leaving because they can't fill their rosters. I can tell you in my neighborhood, there's some really top tier preschools that are struggling to get enough enrollment, to the point where they're concerned.
  3. For reasons unrelated to anything, I was in a discussion today and learned that locally, preschools are struggling to get full enrollment. Which reminded me that I'm Gen X and that this can be a problem if kids aren't born. So I looked it up. Kids aren't being born. It's not as bad as that extreme low point, the nadir of Gen X when Nicole and I managed to scream our way out of our mothers' guts, but it's low.Note that this is the absolute number of births, not even the birth rate. Which is as you'd expect. Anyway. Pretty dang interesting to me that the actual number of births is so low. This will have some pretty severe economic implications a quarter of a century from now. But we're already seeing it affect preschools.
  4. This isn't the celebrity death that hit me the hardest, but it sucks in the way Phil Hartman's did.
  5. Kevin Smith talks about how he eventually had to do this for Jason Mewes. Reverse was the issue... he kept on enabling Jay, and eventually had to just... not let him back in.
  6. i did come up for a final mix on that song i made a few months back... made it a lot more balanced and I'm much happier with it also i feel terrible about it because i finally caved and used melodyne on the worst out of tune singing i feel like a bad musician now
  7. God, drums. I'm pretty sure if I put effort into them, I could do better with them, but after months of practicing the guitar part to get it right, a month of nailing the bass, another month doing lyrics and (awful) singing, and half an hour on synths* I just want a solid beat and I mail it in with an 808 or something. No mix, just volume slider. I do have a song idea where I won't be able to do that though. Drums have to be right on it. *i had to be good at SOMETHING
  8. And if his plan is to run off after Arch is drafted anyway it won't matter.
  9. it's long but worth every minute close your eyes, and you can SEE the Simpsons characters doing the lines
  10. Or just you know... ...☝️ this
