Bernhard Weicht und
@LisaWaldenburger erklären in ihrem Kommentar im Standard, warum das Pflegesystem uns alle betrifft, welche strukturellen Schwächen es gibt und an welchen Stellen ein Umdenken dringend notwendig ist.➡️ https://www.derstandard.at/story/3000000282832/gute-pflege-kann-man-nicht-dem-markt-ueberlassen

Dang. One of my Joyfriends ended their primary relationship.
I really liked her. I liked running into them at social events and hanging out together chatting. I liked talking with her. She was an emerging D/type and I liked learning about her journey. She thought I was funny and witty, and loved hearing about Benson.
I'm sorta bummed.

Him: [this morning] Can't wait to see you later.
Later...
Him: [in a cracking croaking voice] I may have overestimated my recovery.
Me: You sound terrrrible! Stay home! Drink tea! My God, man.
Him: I really wanted to see you.
Me: Good lord not when you sound like that. Take care of yourself first.
When I hung up I said YAY really loud, waking up Benson, and I gave him a big hug.
An afternoon of no plans!
[I really enjoy being with my Joyfriends but I will always prefer my own company first. Hence, #SoPo.]

CW: absolutely not vanilla shenanigans
That was a yummy afternoon with Joyfriend A.
Intimacy looks like a lot of different things.
And on an overcast Saturday, it looks like having your hands cuffed to the leather collar around your neck and drinking from a dog bowl while the Woman in your life does Her thing.
Heh. That was a perfect way to end Week 5 of 2024.

CW: ENM Shenanigans+bits
I ran into Joyfriend B at the Munch last night. He was with his longtime partner, N.
We all hugged, and she said, You really put a hurt on him Sunday night. He is SO uncomfortable. This is the first time I've seen him like this.
We hi-fived while he was all, Just don't touch my nipples!!
And, of course, folks standing near us went to touch his nipples, and he yelped.
We laughed harder. She bought me a drink.
I love being #SoPo. No drama. Just vibes.

Just took my first ride on the new bicycle! The frame and fork are New Albion Drake and the components are a mismatch of what I had in my garage and what I could get used from #Sopo Bicycle Co-op. They will be upgraded over time as the old ones wear out. It's still missing a lot (rear brake and front shifter in particular) and the fork is uncut so I just rode it a mile over to Rev Coffee Roasters to test it out; it rides like a dream, even with all the old parts!

Today's agenda:
Meeting an old Joyfriend for lunch who wants to introduce me to his new partner.While I'm always happy to do these, I gotta admit I'm puzzled by them.
Hm.
I just recognized that reaction as a holdover from some previous intimacy crap. -
Things I've learned from spending the morning on Relationship Tok:
*Folks are obsessed with controlling their partners. Their dress. Their behavior. Their time. Their other relationships.
*People do not like boundaries or wouldn't recognize a boundary if it sat up and said, No thanks.
*Most folks learned this crap in their own families and get really upset when told it's unhealthy and problematic.
*The youth are expert in this controlling relationship crap out the gate -- which is gross and alarming.
*Respectability rules in relationships are a tool of social control and it's typically gendered.
*Folks are afraid of freedom. Their own and their partner's.
I don't want to control my partners. (First, that's exhausting as hell. I ain't got time for that.) They are free. I am free. Freedom is great for everyone.
God I'm so glad that I put in the time over the past 4 years to unlearn and unpack that toxic, controlling shit.
Yay me!

The Joyfriends have dropped off their Christmas treats by now.
Benson is feasting on a bully stick. (I gave him a giant beef shankbone but took it away when all the cracking sounds made me afraid for his teeth.)
*Voyage of the Demeter* is on.
A glass of Sofia is in front of me. I'm about to look up a recipe for mulled wine.
My glutes are stiff from last night, a funny reminder of Eve shenanigans. (Joyfriend A said his brother saw the mark I left on him. Snort. Good.)
The light is dropping fast.
Lady Bachelor holidays are my #SoPo joy.

Today's Joyfriend Birthday Treat:
Joyfriend R brought me a very large pumpkin latte, and we had a long chin wag, catching up on family and friends. We talked a lot about dying and the way of Buddhism.
What I like about relationship anarchy and being #SoPo is that every relationship has its own vibe. Ours used to have shenanigans. And perhaps it will again.
But for now, we flirt, he brings me coffee and gives me a good foot massage after I've injured myself.
That's top-tier relationshipping, that.

CW: Birthday Shenanigans
The Heauxtation, my adult #SoPo crowning achievement, has come through.
Every day next week but one (the one where I'm at the office) has been claimed on my calendar as Bring Me Treats Day by a Heau.
Snort.
Day 1: Treats & Hangout
Day 2: Treats & Service
Day 3: Treats & Coffee
Office (there better be treats)
Day 5: Treats & DogsittingOne Heau hasn't answered his call of booty but he will. He got the message. I have the read receipt. He's got time. But tick tock.
Snort.
I crack myself up.If you can't have a sense of humor about your #ENM then what's the goddamn point?

checking on my Feeld pings with dread.
it might be time to update my profile for lulz again.

Someone on another platform asked her followers: What did you replace your ex with?
The responses make for some fascinating reading. I'm always interested in glow-up narratives, especially from women.
My answer: I replaced my X with ME.
That's my glow-up.

@Blackfist
Solo Poly.I love it. It suits my needs (and politics) amazingly well. Generally, I describe myself as a feminist SoPo D-Type with a wide streak of R/A (relationship anarchy).

CW: Mellow shenanigans
Had a very cool experience with Joyfriend A last night. A night of snacks, music, low lights, headrubs and scritches, talking about the ethics of editing the human genome to alleviate human suffering (he's pro; I've got questions), some cuddling and then cooling off in the night air.

#BensonUpdate Benson Dubois is beginning to show a preference for being inside. He's more and more reluctant to come with me when I need to pop outside quickly for whatever reason. He just grumps, looks at the leash in my hand, and closes his eyes.Heh. My plan is working. He's getting so tired of being with Mommy he wants his space. Heh.
-----
Joyfriend A: Do you want to own me?Me: I'm #SoPo. Ownership is...heavy. But fostering....I could do that. Yes. You will be like my foster kitten.
Joyfriend A: [wriggling happily]
Everyone wants to be on my leash. I've only got room for one. And he's a thicc boi schmoopie face.

Why I'm #SoPo and date as un-heteronormatively as I can. (Shout out to the Joyfriends+ Heaux I spend time with.)
Because *who* has time to be a Feminist Studies tutor for her partner at this stage? Not me.
Yesterday I told a girlfriend that at 53 I'm basically dating myself and shenanigans-ing who I want, when I want, if I want.
I've got a drivers license to get and a passport to renew. Nobody has time for comp het nonsense.

CW: Heauxtation check in
Checking in on the active roster today by sending a series of Signals. Just because one is #SoPo doesn't mean the Heaux don't need feeding+watering.

[looking at the updated roster]
Well, dang.
Things got uncomplicated fast.Looks like getting Benson made me make some choices about my roster. Released a few and have a much leaner bench this season.
Heh.

There've been some changes.
Heh.

Joyfriend A: noooooooo!
Me: what? what is it? what's happening?
Joyfriend A: The A's are leaving 😭
Me: 😑 -
Learned a new word this morning: amatonormativity.
Amatonormativity is the set of societal assumptions that everyone prospers with an exclusive romantic relationship.
I saw it in action last night at the epic cookie night when a friend urged me to 'Give love a chance.' She was really concerned I might 'lose out.'
I'm fine with my Heauxtation, thanks.
