Lilly unpopular opinion:
Turning up. I don’t like flakey friends. We are busy if we make time to stop and celebrate each other turn up. I know you are tired and can’t be bothered me to, but make the effort. Someone drops out or lets others down regular I’m out.

Yeah, life happens. But even when friends don’t have the means, we work something out, like providing them transportation or just hanging out at their place and helping with chores and chatting.

And ffs, if you’re not going to turn up, let me know asap. A very long-term friend I loved hanging out with finally outright ghosted me after she’d been drifting the past year and while it hurts like hell, as I put more distance between me and her, I realized the anxiety I’d get every time we’d meet up was awful. She had no called no showed enough times that I never really felt sure she’d actually be there.
