Billions of cicadas are climbing out of the earth after 17 years. Humor columnist jasongay talked to one, who had a lot of questions.

Billions of cicadas that make up Brood X are beginning to emerge in a large swath of the eastern U.S. Here's what you need to know.Hey everyone, I’m up, I’m out of the dirt, it’s been 17 years, I’m chirping, I’m preparing to mate, I’m chirping again, I’m chirping some more, but I’m confused:

Everyone’s wearing surgical masks, everyone’s in sweatpants, nobody wears nice clothes, you’re all hooked on TV phones, you’re all yammering nonstop about “SPACs,” the Cal-Berkeley quarterback wants to host “Jeopardy!”, there are two more Harry Potter books, they still haven’t finished LaGuardia Airport, the Cubs won a World Series, Amazon ’s trying to build a hotel on the moon, a Shiba Inu controls the economy, and the New York Knicks are actually good.I’m not mad.

I know, I know: There are reports out there that a fungus is causing male cicadas to lose parts of themselves and grow exceptionally…amorous.
