A not insane family
Peace and quiet, and some good nights of sleep.
Hate to add to the grumble but Iβm not feeling it this year. I donβt really want more material things (boo!).
On Tuesday November 19th, I had a stroke. My goal is to make it to next Christmas.
I like twizzlers
Food. I'm making just enough to get my bills paid, but I've been eating ramen and Mac and cheese for around a year. I just want to be able to have food in the fridge/cupboard. It's getting so fucking tiring to never have basic necessities to work so fucking hard to keep my bank account in the negative. I'm so fucking depressed.
Now that I'm done venting, I would absolutely love to be able to get some gifts for my brothers and sisters but it just doesn't look like it'll be feasible this year.
Honestly, nothing :/ Maybe money, but when it comes to anything material there's hardly anything I really desire
Human rights for all
Wish comes true as I make it so, heading north to cottage!
I have so much trouble with wishlists. The things I want are usually niche or expensive. I added an atomic wall clock and one of those boogie boards. I went ahead and added all the parts for a new computer I've been meaning to build for like 4 years lol. I'll just buy the remainder myself. I just got into ham radio but it seems tricky to find things that are relatively cheap to ask for on a wish list that aren't garbage.
Gift cards, books
Cast iron, tools, bicycle parts.
Same as last year. Socks and whiskey.
Two words: Horse. Testicles.
For every politician or TV pundit that has ever lied or misled the public in the direction of ignorance and hatred, I wish for them to receive a finely wrapped and bowed package containing nothing but horse testicles.
Don't let this just be a christmas tradition. For just Β£2 a month, you too can sponsor a politician to recieve a gift every single week. Think of the difference it would make.
I mean, I would have been just fine with my brother getting me a gift card to a shop I like, but he says that's boring and how I should ask for something else. The best thing about the gift card to this shop is that it allows him not to worry about getting something I didn't want, even though I'm not super gift picky.
So, yeah, the gift card to that place, which sells everything from games (old, new, and related stuff) to anime/manga stuff to even just board games, is usually the only thing I ever can think of since I know I won't ever be disappointed.
