Dear Lord...

So four districts were closed, maybe up to 6. Three of which had sets of people I knew. Such grand fun. Tom told me that HR made the guys from Marshall drive 50 miles to get their Severance packages, too. God, talk about harsh as fuck?
That aside, I just saw a commercial for this interview with the lady that had the Octuplets. And what I want to know is why has NO ONE called this woman irresponsible? I'm sorry, I am a single, childless adult. I don't know the joys of motherhood, I don't much care too either to be honest. Children? Annoy me. Babies that get slobber and spit everywhere make me want to run to my bathroom and scrub myself down. Dramatic, yeah, but true. No matter what people say about how I'm good with kids, I teach them well, etc. I still don't like them.
And yet, this woman who is single, already had like 6 kids, is being treated like a damn hero. Why? Because she endangered her life and the lives of her babies by trying to have so many. This is not worthy of praise! In a world where the human population is rapidly growing without any natural population controls because we've all cleverly sidestepped them. We've cured most of it, found ways around a lot.
And we breed than mice.
God, that woman pisses me off, and reminds me that I don't need children because people like that make it so I don't need to add anything to society. Would it kill some of those 'breed like rabbits' idiots to....oh NOT HAVE KIDS. If you love babies so much? Fucking adopt, stop killing the population by having to many kids.
