I guess they want them to start spelling people’s names correctly.

    Lol, back when I worked at Starbucks, I joked that one day this exact thing would happen. That the education industrial complex would require a bachelor’s degree for all jobs, as it would ensure debt and desperation in the vast majority of people who solely wish to survive.

    I also claimed back then that we would all live to see the disastrous effects of climate change. No joke, people back then shook their heads and thought me nuts.

    My next prediction: the majority of people who are parents today will wish they never made the decision to have kids in the next 20 years. Good luck everybody.

      That’s not much of a prediction. I ask every woman I get to know if they regret having kids. If they could just go back, and not do it.

      Some feel bad about saying yes. Some feel like they’re bad moms. Or bad people for wishing they never had kids.

      Some happily say “fuck these kids! Ruined my life!”

      Some think about it, and eventually say yes.

      But so far, no one has said no.

      And this is going back to the 90s.
