Demographers: throw a tantrum if you use generational labels as if you endorsed astrology as science. Also demographers: decide every person w/o kids, incl Dolly Parton (RIP👑), is labeled "childfree" from now on. Stop it! I don't have time to write another paper right now!

Tips & tricks for the R&R process: Always make sure to vent your frustrations in the comments because they are easy to spot and remove before submitting your memo!

Supervisors that allow their students to submit a shitty paper to see what the reviewers have to say instead of doing their job and supervise (or even read the draft!) - should be banned from journals one year per each reviewer whose time they carelessly wasted.

The show focuses on the psychology and sociology aspects (easier to dramatize, I guess), but demography is alive and kicking in the essence of the project.

For a decade, Dr. Steven Tuck has worked on the Pompeii Survivors Project, an exhaustive search for those who managed to flee before Pompeii was destroyed. His findings were published in the book “Escape From Pompeii: The Great Eruption of Mount Vesuvius and its Survivors.” https://cnn.it/4pslKEZ

The Barcelona integration process: Level 1: Tourists clock you as a foreign resident & ask for directions in English. Level 2: Catalan grandmas trust you to grab things for them from the top shelf at the store. No speaking needed. Level 3: Spanish speakers ask you for directions… in Spanish.

So it's p*t* España in Barcelona all year long except during world cup. Got it.
