Big tricky carry-on the next century, more and more it'll be fretted over, is people living too fucking long (not stupidly too long, ten years is more than enough to cause massive mayhem). Gonna be every second op-ed by 2060.

This is one of those things that rarely gets talked about that has had a massive effect.
As fields like journalism, art, and academia were collapsed and living expenses skyrocketed they came to skew increasingly toward people whose families could afford to supplement their income.

I will boycott any supermarket that offers lower prices if you have a loyalty card, even if it means paying a little more elsewhere. I just want to buy some milk, I don't owe you any loyalty and I won't join your stupid club. Fuck off.
