    I miss my cat and I wish my family wasn’t so fucked up.

    I want to be more productive and less depressed

    I’m over this technological improvement of our lives, and it’s manipulate existence. My hope is that we and I can put our fucking phones down and actually connect with each other again. We aren’t getting out of this economic takeover unless we actually talk to each other like the adults we are supposed to be. Be passionate, but listen. Act with compassion, but defy the fascist ideals. Realize that we are biased and make mistakes, but can learn from those mistakes… Even when as you get older.

    If I don’t get my health in order, build better habits, and find a decent job this year, I’ll probably end up dead before 2025 ends. Somethings not right with my body but without insurance or an income to get a plan from the marketplace, either my heart, lungs, or Crohns will take me out.

      Sounds like you live in the US. Do you know anyone that lives in states that have Medicare for low/no income earners? Perhaps you could claim you live at their place and drive in after you submit your application for their program and get free healthcare?

      I’m not a lawyer, but if you have your friend to back up your story they wont be able to prove you dont live there. Youre just out of town looking for work.

      We live in a unjust world, do not follow these rules that were not made for us. The insurance corporations sure have bent and broken the rules to put this “Healthcare system” in place. You should to. Fight back.

      Hope you find your way. Peace.

        Thank you. Yes, I’m a software engineer by trade in the US and really hope this new year and the new administration (not saying I agree with it) encourages businesses to hire again. Been applying and interviewing since July with no success. Many other devs I talk to that left/loss their jobs last year have shared the same experience.

        Once I get that sorted out, I should be able to get insurance again. It’s just crazy that you need to be working to even attempt to be healthy and get the care needed.

          Just to point out, many software dev places are trying to replace developers with AI.

          I mean, that’s not going to work out well, what with the high rates at which AI hallucinates. But businesses are going to keep trying until they collapse from all the shitty code that’s been created.

    My roommate and I used to date and I’m still in love with them. We’re making it work well but everything is messy

    I went through a lot of therapy to get past my fear of telling people I love them and getting broken up with shortly after, the day I was going to tell my now roommate I love them they broke up with me out of nowhere. We didn’t even date that long and the breakup was nearly a year ago and it still hurts. I don’t have many regrets in life but not telling them sooner is one of them

    I had lower surgery shortly after they broke up with me. I was so excited to have someone there for me emotionally and physically after surgery. Now I have nobody and I’m scared to have sex. I don’t know how to work past this and therapy hasn’t been helping

    I just want to be able to connect with someone without the crushing weight of trust issues around every corner. I miss being with my roommate so much, one of the happiest and most exciting relationships I’ve ever had

    I have to admit that I won’t be on good terms again with my sibling for a long while. They did some very distressing things this year that were a large contributor to my burnout. Never apologized for it, never tried to fix anything. I’m done with that tbh

    I can’t stay on the path I’ve been on the last couple of years. This path is a damn circle, and that’s no good!

    I want to somehow go back to 1998 and find young me when I still believed the internet and computers would truly make us love each other more and break down national divides and bring a greater peace to the whole world and i want to punch him square in the mouth.

    Also i think this might be my last Christmas. Like I will still be around but Christmas as we grow up with is no longer going to be a thing.

      It’s not young-you’s fault, they had us all hooked on that potential. And it 100% had and still has that potential, it’s just that the wrong people are calling the shots.

      Tell you what, I’ll go back with you and we can punch the ones who ruined the internet!
