I love this comic and it’s a reoccurring conversation. What has worked for y’all for sharing tasks, specifically at home?

be a feminist. all tasks are our tasks. my partner and I have our own strengths. we try and lean into those.
If you need to start somewhere create a chore sheet, sign and date when you do them. you quickly have a record of imbalances like who is doing more than their share of the dishes
lol. sorry but for some reason this thing with agile for software development and scoring user stories. could be interesting for a family with bidding on points for tasks.
it could be like that, fam. or the wheel of doom, you spin, you get what you get and you don't throw a fit!
Ah making the chart is a chore of itself but it’s a good idea I’m starting to do (and adding time is especially important)
