My good chum Kelly sent me a sly wink through the spacetime wormhole, basically telling me she'd snagged herself some time off and I had to come join her. Less than a decade away? You bet I fired up the janky time machine faster than you can say "preemptive sick leave."
Kelly, you see, found herself a doctor's note that lets you call in sick for being not just under the weather, but overwhelmed by it too. I'm not talking about a bad flu here; I'm talking full-blown existential dread about climate change.
Now don't get me wrong, climate dread is a serious affair, but the smirk on Kelly's face when she handed over that note! Let's just say the future's looking bright for those who want to play hooky.
Do you want to make your own design fiction using the image above?
I created an easy-to-use Photoshop MOCKUP that you can download and use.
Gonna see this in the DSM VI some day soon, I reckon.
