This is the worst headline that I ever had the misfortune to lay my eyes on.

I cannot unsee this and it is forever now an additional burden of unwanted knowledge on the existing reality of Japan’s declining population and fertility crisis.

Each time there is a glimmer of hope of a trend reversing or going back to normal, a headline like this just unfortunately confirms in some sense what I already know.

Now this news made this situation even worse.

Happy for them, hoping this is a super strange outlier, But holistically unhappy for the course of humanity.

Sad.
