Pretty much same. At this point I'm not sure if the idea of a relationship even appeals to me anymore. Sharing a bed and cupboard and your general space 24/7 also frightens me a bit at this point.
I think that if I did start dating or whatever again, the idea of relationship anarchy appeals to me these days. The part about keeping expectations and feelings of ownership in check. And respecting that other people are individuals with their own lives.
The future is annoying. Here is a reverse image search result from 8 years ago.
Yay I'll pack the molotovs! A picnic by the fire light of the burning patriarchy sounds fantastic!
Nah that's brilliant too and I 100% support it.
Lame response, useless af.
Here's more of the saga of their changing headline:
And a response by Pizza Cake comics lol:
Whether you like it or not, its censorship. Ppl with opposite political views silencing eachother creating echo chambers of only ppl who align with them politically.
Personally I don't buy this one as a problem. Pre social media, anarchists weren't sitting around a table sipping tea with nazis, alt people didn't have to put up with fkn jocks making the same comments about dyed hair and piercings that grandpa has been making since 1976 daily, if you want to the club and spent your time insulting all the regulars and staff and owner, you'd get your ass kicked out to the curb by the bouncers.
I think the problem is a certain crowd acting like they should have the right to just barge into whatever spaces they want and say whatever they want without any consequences. Life was never like that. And just because you're free to speak, doesn't mean that everyone should be forced to listen whether they want to or not.
Sometimes people who believe in jewish space lazers just need to be treated like the deranged fucking clowns that they are and not be given a seat at the table. The world would probably be so much better if these people would go back to whatever fucking holes they crawled out of.
Edit: I'm also going to start assuming that people who think the internet used to be this place where bigots could run wild saying the N word are all 12 years old. Because forum sites pre social media were iron fisted.
I think that not necessarily everything in life is a big buddhist style learning moment and sometimes we really do just dig our own holes. And I mean, there's nothing to say that the person in this simplistic cartoon strip didn't learn anything here. Maybe sometimes the lesson is just that if you touch the hot plate on a stove, you'll get burnt.
Other bigger lessons in life probably look a bit different to this.
For the person on the left hand side, the only matches I can find seem to be marketing related, or it's a stock image. The person on the right hand side is from an art piece by someone named Billy Norrby: https://www.billynorrby.com/
I did consider !womensstuff@piefed.blahaj.zone but there's a nice social vibe there. And while I might post a relevant meme there some time in the future, I wouldn't want to see the place flooded with them.
Didn't consider !femcelmemes@lemmy.blahaj.zone, I'll see if the meme fits the vibe there in future.
How does an occasional music post around here sound? I don't want to promise weekly or monthly or even that I'll start right now but I've been listening to a lot of new (to me) music, particularly focussing on music with a woman's voice (alternative / punk / metal to be specific). I'm also starting to see some pretty cool up and comers in my feeds. Itching to start sharing with people who are actually interested. Does this interest people around here?
A few months ago (on my original Blåhaj account), I posted elsewhere asking for suggestions on punk and heavy music with female vocalists. This is ended up starting a ball rolling for me, a new longer term fixation to keep me going for a few years in between the little obsessions lol.
Originally I was planning on doing on doing a post or two with a master list for people to refer to based on genre etc. I'd still like to do that but the more I discover and the more rabbit holes I go down, the longer term that idea is becoming. I also tend to get stuck on and obsessed with one or two bands or artists for a while, so it's going to take time to really get through everything.
That sounds great, I could do that. There's no reason you can't still 'sleep over' or even spend the week or practically live together anyway. As long as each person still has their space to retreat to (without anyone getting upset about it) and no one is left feeling trapped in their own life.
Even if you lived in the house, because let's face it times are tough, at the very least seperate bedrooms are a must.
