#social obligations

[atelierlili]

Going to a club/bar with friends tomorrow and ngl it’s stressing me out because I know my girlies are messy 😞

I’m not drinking cause I’m sick, but I’m there to hang out. And hopefully run home after 2-3 hours so I don’t have to deal with it 🥰

Spouse: Do you want to go to [so-and-so]'s funeral?

Me: Not really

S: Why not?

M: I'm not a loved one.

S: You don't have to have loved someone to go to their funeral.

M: I wasn't really close to them.

S: It's not about affection,it's about paying respects.

M: I didn't respect them either.

You always have something to keep you occupied. Parties, dances, and all that sort of thing.

Some of the rules and obligations based on kinship affected everyday behaviours for particular groups, such as which way one should face in a small-group setting, if and when one must leave a group upon the arrival of another person, and the necessity to sometimes pass information to another through a third person.

In 1984, the imagined hellish dystopian future appears very centered around hanging out at the community centre and participating in community hikes.

This is so, so lovely 😔

And I have the feeling, this description fits all 5 of them… There is a reason why we (still) feel attached to them.

“He never once asked for anything. He did not want publicity, he did not want people to know, he just didn’t have that motivation – he saw a need and knew he could help.”

Why does the orange Addison's mannequin kinda resemble you?

Not to be that guy, but... hey he/they trans guys, I just wanna ask. Do you use "they" because it feels right... because it clicks as part of your identity... or because it doesn't hurt as much as she/her, so it must be okay.

And don't just evaluate this for they/them. Evaluate it for he/him as well. "I'm a guy so I have to use he/him" no the fuck you do not. Plenty of guys use they/them. Plenty of guys use she/her. Plenty use it/its/ve/vir/ce/cir and are still men. If he/him doesn't fit, you don't fucking have to use he/him and it doesn't make you any less of a man. You know that... right?

Also before this post starts an argument I am not pissing on he/they pronoun users I am simply reminding all you transmascs that there is no obligation binding you to those specific pronouns... a post I needed to see myself.

[aotearoa] if you're over 30 and haven't gotten the xbb1.5 booster try to do it THIS MONTH

our piece of shit fascist moneylover government is likely cutting funding to covid vaccines for the great majority of people on july 1.

someone who has access to te whatu ora emails posted this on twitter — it hasn't hit the news yet, but others working in healthcare appear to be confirming it's quite likely, so keep that in mind. we knew a month ago that they were revisiting changes to funding as of the new budget. they're also fucking changing the way sick leave works so that part-time workers will get a hell of a lot less. this winter.

if you're under 30 like me, go ask your pharmacist anyway! mine gave it to me and my wife, and i know there are others around the country who will. ask around until you find someone who will give it to you.

we're entering the biggest covid wave since dec 2022, this government is generally destroying the ministry of health and disability funding, you deserve to do what you can to secure any modicum of protection now. it's worth a shot, pun not intended.

Hey when your art friends share their work with you, please take note to not turn that into a vent session about how your own stuff sucks... It's just gonna make your friend feel like their art is hurting you, and they're not gonna share anymore.
