Reaction emojis on posts largely arise from their common business uses years ago, company slack channel reactions, reactions in asian business group chats used to signify formal approval, rejection, confirmation, etc — meant for communication efficiency and clarity, despite having a lot to say
Emojis in texts arise from — something else
Stickers arise from the idea of easily-reusable memes, but should good memes really be reused much? — world still working out what to do with stickers, feels kinda stop-gap half-way

It’s known what causes low fertility,
It’s been well-proven since decades ago at least, in many formal studies even
but nearly everyone is terrified to say it
— It’s women earning the same as men
Vast majority of women are unattracted to any man earning less than them, for serious dating purposes,
And wanting to have babies with a guy is several levels up from that — she has to be expecting he’ll make much more than her
(This also includes getting years of food and shelter paid for by school loans or parents paying them while they continue school, same idea, functionally equivalent)
Many will scream murder at you for saying it, but is it true?
Is what it is
Coach Bruce was right

Women instinctually want to have children with protectors who “save them” from poverty or attackers
E.g. women’s fairytales of a rich prince saving a girl from relative poverty, or… countless examples in reality if you’ve bothered to pay attention
But what does this mean, once society “advances” to the level where the threat of poverty and physical attacks is gone?
= Women then only can be attracted to men, in this “he saved me”, deep instinctual way if something gets taken away from them, which men could then give them back
= TAKING AWAY money from women would be expected to be FAR MORE effective at raising fertility rates than GIVING women money
…And indeed that is what we see with much poorer women having far higher fertility rates
Are there other ways?
Perhaps
But hard to overcome the huge instinctual appeal of a man “saving them” from poverty and starvation
But how could instincts be backwards and destructive like that, incentivizing the opposite of what they say they want?
Countless such cases. This is just yet another to add to the list.
(These gender roles are flipped in ~5% of women, e.g. women lawyers, and then there’s another ~10% of women who really like men no matter what, but broadly, it holds)

“Resource shocks” studies
— Girlfriends who refused to have families suddenly demanding to get married and pregnant, after guys suddenly start earning much more than the women do
Many such cases

Yes, beware the Safeguard impersonator scam bots
Have banned the word “Safeguard” from the group a while back because 100+ Safeguard scam bots appeared over the last few months
Apparently now these Safeguard scam bots are DMing people too
