  Partner is a teacher in a deprived area and parents have physically engaged with teachers on more than one occasion.

  But even in my job which has a publicly known phone number people are finding it perfectly reasonable to shout down the phone despite nothing having gone wrong with their process.

  People are getting more aggressive and it’ll be a mixture of things. Partially cos everything is fucked, but also, certainly in my case, things like Amazon have changed people’s expectations. They get something the next day, if they don’t like it they get a voucher no questions asked, or if they want they can scam the system.

  Works fine for Amazon, doesn’t work fine of you try to force that business model onto already stretched public services. If they’re told their kid isn’t behaving or performing they’ll go on the attack and act like a shitty customer rather than a parent.

  I got told to be careful of soy milk once by a conspiracy theorist buddy. Said it’ll turn me into a woman.

  Hundred percent this conspiracy theory has bigoted roots.

  A friend of mine said that he found looking for streamers on Twitch that stream something you’re interested in with your target language. Cos they most likely have a discord server, and it gives you the opportunity to converse with their community, and you’ll often be welcomed and helped out.
