Yeah... after having a child we needed to double the size of our trashcan just because of diapers.

Dayum, and the smell of that must be horrid

Not really. We have one of those smell free diaper cans. They close after you put something in them.

Why did you have a kid?

All my friends are doing it.

Lmao, wow. That's bleak. I hope you tell your kid this, they're going to be living through collapse and you forced them into this because of fucking FOMO and peer pressure.

Yo here's some fun links from the World Economic Forum and United Nations for you:
Global freshwater demand will exceed supply 40% by 2030 and 90% of global top soil and arable land is at risk of depletion by 2050.

I hope you're proud of yourself.

It was a joke you ham-sandwich. I and my wife wanted a family. Now we do. And so far it’s going quite well so I will take my chances. :)
