Incredibly sad story incoming:
In college, I listened to Baby Hotline as a pick me up. I knew it was a sad song, but I liked it. It's a good song. I pause in the middle of my campus hallway to find several of my fellow students crying. I'm lost, confused. I stop to ask what's going on, and they ask me if I'd seen the email.

The day before, my Sociology teacher hadn't ever shown up. It was very unlike him, he was an incredibly organized man. I was worried, so I called the campus security about it and alerted the head of the department.

Well, that email, confirmed he'd passed away. He'd taken his life the day before, and the department had called his family, who also hadn't heard from him, so the campus called the police. That's when they found him.

I remember standing there in shock, holding onto my phone, Baby Hotline playing. The song had taken a new meaning in the moment. I just couldn't stop the tears. I couldn't even take my headphones off as I broke down in the middle of the hallway.

I miss you Kyle. We all miss you. You changed our lives in wonderful ways. I will always think of you and your girls when I listen to this song.

If my English Teacher made me go deep into this instead of a random sentence in a book, I would have got good grades in English

the beat of being on hold on a suicide hotline is so real and almost got myself and many others killed.

The saddest part is that that’s probably the hotline call since if someone does something annoying constantly you start to worry once they stop(such as calling). The operator expects her to call so when she doesn’t they start to worry

When the English teacher analyzes the poem:

[KwAnTheSilly]

The “I contend that your drinking eyes never open” line could also be a reference to the fact that a person who close their eyes while drinking is in pain or discomfort

as a former member of the jack stauber content creator community, i really recommend you analyse fighter, such a pressing story about domestic abuse (cannibal reference???)

Jack stauber has always intrigued me. The disturbing yet meaningful nature of his music is just so cool. And the music is good too so that's a bonus.

Also Jack stauber balls.

As a person who listens to a lot of jack Stauber music, thank you for covering this! Baby Hotline is something some people need to look into before using it for happy TikTok’s (yes I’ve seen that happen.)

Ive been on antidepressants for some years now, and working on coping mechanisms, and ill tell you. Coping SUCKS because its HARD. And antidepressants feel weird when you first start them because you get so used to how depression feels that when you DONT feel those depression symptoms (at least not to the extreme you did before) it feels like youre completely numb and emotionless. Coping sucks because the bad coping mechanisms (self harm, addiction, etc) are so much easier to do than the good ones because its so much easier to 'indulge' in your dark thoughts and feelings than it is to actively fight against them

Oh Klahoma and Baby Hotline always manages to make me cry. Those songs perfectly describes my anxiety and depression.

[aces-talking]

"more like jack stauber balls" we all say in unison

[StarScar-]

There is one little moment I noticed, the line "She's a hoarder, of quarters."
Hoar in Hoarder is dragged out in such a way that it sounds like another word, and there's a vaguely brief pause between "She's a HOARder" and "Of quarters". That along with the visuals of Baby being seemingly unclothed and surrounded by money, makes me believe she feels like a "hoarder" with how many times she's called. Even though she's the one exchanging money, she's also the one exposing herself, and being humiliated by the one she's basically doing business with as they may laugh at her and make her feel degraded. It's possible it's an insult that's been thrown at her before, maybe even by someone at the other end before because she called so much and used so much money calling.
Or it may be she's either works or use to work like that before, or had a bad experience that makes her think of herself that way, and it's part of why she's in such a bad mental state.
