My sibs and I are close but we have lots of age gaps and live in different places and have very different lives so we don’t always communicahe a lot. I've started to facetime them constantly to say hi. Sometimes they don't pick up but that is ok. As long as they do sometimes and I can see their face and say hi :)
They used to be friends in law but now we are all friends! We talked about grueling situationships and we all have cute dog stuffed animals. I love my friends and talking on FaceTime.
Almost ALL my friends are no longer in the same CITY OR EVEN STATE as me. But we still manage to keep in touch. Always look forward to holidays when they visit from college. Don't abandon your friends or think they'll abandon you just because they're not physically there, keep up your closest bros. Literally just TEXT OR CALL THEM!!!! I promise you won't bother them as much as you think.
In an appropriate context of course, but the taboo around salaries was born from concealing the fact that women and bipoc made less. Let's be transparent! It's important to benchmark our salaries so that we can make sure we are all getting paid what we deserve!!
Some of the best music acts of the last 20 years are coming from this venue! The best of contemporary rock/punk were playing here before (and after) they were known- BC,NR, Black Midi, Squid, Bloc Party, Hot Chip, English Teacher…. So much history, so much talent! If you’re ever looking for new talent I highly suggest looking up recent live gig recordings from The Windmill….
