The other day i was saying i had to go pick up my wife and the tea-shop attendant instantly laughed and asked, “Then where’s your wedding ring?”

So i had to think of a polite way to say that the state can fuck right off out of my relationships and take it’s bullshit patriarchal ownership rituals with it. That sounded something like, “oh ah we’re not actually … we didn’t need to… so we haven’t… so i don’t have… yeah.”
