    If the dishes need to be done, and I have time. I do the dishes.

    If my non-platonic roommate notices the dishes need to be done, and they have time, they do the dishes.

    Basically, unless it’s a pretty complicated task that only one of us is proficient in, whoever is available just does it.

      Sure, but you can’t just expect people to behave like mature adults. That’s fucking ridiculous, come on, now. We need to explore alternative communication methods on Tiktok to find a better solution.

      Would not work with me. People’s perception of “I have time” is not uniform, so maybe my partner would do the dishes diligently under this system, but I’d always be thinking, “I don’t have time” (when in fact I am just not making time).

      I need a system, otherwise I will take the piss. Me and my partner have a system, and it’s a weight off our minds for the most part.
