How often have you heard, ‘whale loneliness is one of the great social problems of our time’?

I haven't heard it a single time.

And enough of the 'whale fucking is non-consensual' bullshit. A Humpback whale weighs 70,000 pounds, is fifty feet long, can dive more than a quarter mile and can crush ships with a single swipe of its tail. If a human manages to fuck one, you damn well better believe it's consensual

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/52-hertz_whale

The 52-hertz whale, colloquially referred to as 52 Blue, is an individual whale of unidentified species that calls at the unusual frequency of 52 hertz in the north Pacific Ocean between Aleutian and Kodiak Islands to the California coast. The whale itself has never been sighted: it has only been heard via hydrophones, but its call has been detected since the late 1980s in a pattern that matches the migration of the blue whale and the fin whale. Those species call at 10 to 39 Hz and 20 Hz respectively. Described as the "world's loneliest whale", it appeared to be the only individual emitting a whale call at this frequency.
