Media, please stop using the term ‘silver tsunami’. It’s condescending and kinda ageist. Using the term conjures a discriminatory stereotype. It’s harmful.
A reminder: ageism is discrimination we commit against our future selves.

This is one of the more interesting invitations I've received from a journal. Despite the prospect of great merriment, the 2 day deadline for submission would have outweighed the fun and gaiety.
