Millennial moms on social media—which is to say, basically all of us—see endless memes and complaints about the “mental load,” which, per one internet source, is “a discrete category of family work, which entails the planning, schedule and remembering of domestic chores and events.” Don’t get me wrong, I like a good meme, and if you can’t complain a little about motherhood, what’s the point of the internet?
