A pair of young lovers have today revealed to The Advocate the huge decision they have made for the sake of humanity, and their never to exist (apparently) future child.

Speaking to our humble regional newspaper as part of an exclusive sit down, Teresa Mumm and Nathan Priest confirmed that they WILL NOT be having kids in this climate.

“It’s actually so fucked,” said Nathan, a performative late 20s man.

“Like it’s irresponsible to be bringing another human being into this world,” continued Nathan, who by making the decision not to have a child will be saving humanity from the threat of climate change, AI, late stage capitalism and global conflict.

When quizzed on whether the decision had anything to do with him maybe not being that keen on having another human being affecting his way of life and his freedom to do whatever he wants whenever he wants as a well paid young city man in a relationship with a well paid city girlfriend, Nathan laughed.

“No way dude, it’s actually just so selfish to bring a child into the world in this climate.”

Those comments were echoed by Teresa, who’s anti-natalism has allegedly faded somewhat in recent months, but still leaves the legacy of social media and vocal party rants behind.

“Yeah, like how can anyone have kids in this climate,” said Teresa, whose parents had kids in the midst of a think called mutually assured destruction, multiple genocides and the threat of the world exploding when the annals of time hit the year 2000.

“It’s so bad. What kind of a future are they going to grow up in.”

“Like I’d love to have kids, but I just can’t right now,” continued Teresa, side-eyeing Nathan to see if there was any softening in the expression of man who took a long time to commit to an actual relationship with Teresa and even longer to move in with her.

“So yeah.”
