... Read moreIt's common to encounter the question, "Do you want to have kids?" in various stages of adulthood, reflecting societal expectations and personal crossroads. Many people feel pressured to conform to traditional timelines involving family planning, but it's important to recognize that each person's journey is unique. The phrase "stop talking Plan B's" suggests the challenge individuals face when considering alternatives to traditional parenthood or life paths. 'Plan B' can mean different things—choosing not to have children, adoption, fertility alternatives, or focusing on career and personal growth instead. Adulting, a term often used to describe the process of managing life responsibilities, includes making decisions about if and when to have kids. It's a deeply personal decision intertwined with emotional, financial, and health considerations. The pressure to answer the question about having children can be overwhelming, yet embracing authenticity in your choice leads to fulfillment. If you're navigating this decision, it helps to connect with communities sharing honest experiences, seek professional advice, and reflect on what fits your values and lifestyle. Recognizing that 'I don't think I can do that one' is a valid and meaningful response reinforces the importance of self-awareness and respect for one's boundaries. Ultimately, living your adult life on your own terms, whether that includes children or not, is a vital part of embracing what adulting truly means in today's world.

There have been SOO many days in the past that I’ve just considered “over” at 3pm. Maybe it’s because I was hungover and didn’t get out of bed until 12pm. Or because I just woke up and started doomscrolling for too long… I always just think I wasted the day so I’m going to continue to feel bad/guil

The image features a Dutch Bros drive-thru building at dusk, with large white text overlayed that reads "EXPOSING DUTCH BROS..." accompanied by two shocked face emojis. Lemon8 branding is visible at the bottom.
Against a Dutch Bros drive-thru background, text explains that dietitians cite excessive sugar in Dutch Bros drinks, which almost double calories and sugar compared to similar drinks from other coffee places, setting up a comparison.
This image compares a Starbucks blended caramel mocha and a Dutch Bros Caramelizer. It details nutritional information for 16oz drinks: Starbucks (380 calories, 54g sugar, 16g fat) versus Dutch Bros (750 calories, 100g sugar, 25g fat).
