Top performance from the boys, will definitely be checking them out again for sure. Their stand out track for the show was Golden Egg with the lead guitar going through what seemed like a midi synthesiser pedal, the song had so much power. I must say, the bass line in the verses for this track is so fragile but delicate. With their set featuring tracks like We See Colour which was aggressive, it was nice to hear tracks like Not Alone with the whole arrangement of the song being delicious. I know Gaz personally, like I said, and I know how much he likes Star Wars, so I really wasn’t surprised to see a Star Wars mask on the stage while they played, just constantly staring into our souls. Gareth’s vocals were constantly on point as each song progressed. Institutes brought their theatrical side out with the theme tune of the Avengers signalling their first track. I know both bands personally so it was nice to go and do a feature on both. There’s a reason the era of hustlers and bosses reigned supreme for so long - work yields wealth for those deemed lucky enough by society’s standards.I went to see Meme Detroit with support from Institutes live on the 5th May at the Night Owl. But when has working hard ever provided someone with the same gentle vibes as a warm drink and a good night’s sleep? To some, the grind is inherently fulfilling, and plenty of people find meaning and purpose in their work. LinkedIn’s broetry posters and deplatformed misogynist Andrew Tate say you’re dissatisfied with life because you’re not working hard enough. Still, there’s something highly compelling about the leisurely pace of her life. Her TikToks show her doing household laundry and cooking, the unpaid and often dreaded chores involving physical and mental energy that are so often overlooked when considering the contributions of women to family life. We do know that her captions have declared “ every day is a self care day” and celebrated the “ acts of service” she’s able to do for her boyfriend (as well as the money she’s able to spend). We know nothing of her educational or health status that might impact her ability to work outside of the home. It could just be something she tries to romanticize on TikTok while she works on her next endeavor, or maybe she has passive income streams. We don’t know if being a stay-at-home girlfriend, dependent on someone who isn’t legally liable for her, is her life dream. Kay did not return BuzzFeed News’ request for comment, and she hasn’t responded to the criticisms. We’ve entered the era of the sleepytime girlfriend. We’d rather be “ snug as a bug” or making the “ honk shoo mimimi” noise or emulating the well-rested Celestial Sleepytime Tea bear mascot than working. We need more than to be just stay-at-home girlfriends. Perhaps it’s even enough to make a person not want to work anymore - so much so that when Beyoncé suggested people quit their jobs in her song “Break My Soul,” people listened.Īs hot girl summer grays into sleepy girl winter, a yearning for rest - and, more specifically, sleep - has reared its head in memes. It’s a Sisyphean task, going to work every day knowing wages can’t keep up with the cost of living.
In the past year, we’ve seen stories about the “ Great Resignation” and “ quiet quitting” attempt to explain how rising inflation and the agony of nearly three pandemic years have bred a desire to escape work as we know it.
Though many found her statement to be out of touch - a billionaire reality mogul probably has a very different understanding of labor compared to the average worker - she was kind of onto something. “It seems like nobody wants to work these days,” Kim Kardashian said in a March interview with Variety about women in business.
