I wonder what would happen if women just stopped doing the emotional labour? ‘Oh we haven’t seen your family in two years? Wow’ ‘Oh no did we miss your niece’s birthday?’ ‘I have no idea what there is to eat’ ‘I’ve no idea where your favourite top is, I didn’t know you had one!’

Because I'm blind, an airline is saying I have to sit alone. We booked side-by-side seats. But when they found out I'm blind, they separated us. They're claiming it's their policy 1/7 #RightsOnFlights

Happy #Pride y'all! 🌈

It was so fun to copyedit this book and learn about an often unheard side of performance art.

Congrats to @joeyorr, the Spencer's @MellonFdn Curator for Research on the publication of "A Sourcebook of Performance Labor." 📙 news.ku.edu/2023/05/04/new…
