    I want to have children, but cannot afford them for an undetermined amount of time. Fingers crossed that we’ll have enough money someday!

    I have all that I can reasonably want that I could reasonably be given, so I’m making a gift instead, I’m off donating blood in half an hour, hopefully someone will appreciate it 😋

    The motherboard in my computer is basically dead. Every morning I must perform voodoo to get just one more post.

    But my computer is fairly old now and I can’t justify just replacing the board for more money than upgrading the platform. 😔

    To win a housing lottery so I can move the fuck out like why the fuck do you need to be lUcKy to FUCKING LIVE IN THE CITY YOU WERE FUCKING BORN IN? Some apartments and condos had yearly incomes of 100k to 150k yearly. Bro. If you’re making One Hundred Thousand United States Dollars every year, you’re most likely making $1500 a week. You should be considered rich or well off. Why the absolute fuck are literal rich people unable to fucking just live on their own in their city without needing to be lucky? The US Government is a humongous failure. Any country with homeless and desperately poor people has a failed government. Then you have these exact poor people fighting each other for enough money to escape poverty on Mr Beast Games and everyone’s watching it without understanding how fucked that is. That poor people are given a carrot on a stick to chase for everyone’s entertainment.

    I’m certain I won’t get it, as it’s not on my wishlist nor have I ever mentioned it to anyone, but my number one desired object right now is a life-sized, anatomically correct model of a specific non-human animal body part.

    Some day I’d love to be the owner of a Curta calculator, but considering the cheapest I’ve ever seen them is $700 I don’t think that’ll ever be a Christmas gift. A tax refund gift to myself perhaps one day, but certainly not a Christmas gift.

      Fuck me for wanting one a loong time ago when you could get a real old one for like 350€… but absolutely not having the money.

      What a masterpiece and a story too.
