We are asking folks with plans to attend a movie at #AlamoDrafthouseSouthLamar to exchange their tickets for another date, as the venue will be even more understaffed than usual. We also ask you to be patient and kind to the staff that have opted to work today. 3/3
So... are we going to talk about the fact that @target only sells Star Wars clothing for "men" or "boys"?
Nothing in the female or gender neutral sections.
Are we seriously still acting like only half the population is allowed to like a multi-billion dollar franchise?
Saw this posted last night and it helped me so I am passing along: This is your reminder to relax your shoulders, unclench your jaw, soften your brows. Now, take a moment to be calm and focus on one thing you’re grateful for. Stay there as long as you need to. 💖
Imagine a world where we valued something above money. What would our first question be when we meet someone instead of where they work?
Where do you volunteer? Who do you serve? What do you create? What brings you joy? What are you learning? What do you teach others?
Capitalism is a fucked system. It values corporations and money over people. It makes us all OBSESSED with jobs. Your job is your identity. It becomes how others define you, how you define yourself. It's where you put all of your energy and time.
It's one if the 1st things we ask about a person. Even how we ask is weird "what do you do?" When what we mean is "what do you do for money?" What a person DOES can be SO much more. But we've stopped valuing anything else. Not service, not the arts (unless they're rich & famous)
