Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

Could be big picture, like a life goal. Could be what you want right this moment. What do you yearn for?

Unironically, money//stable income. Being piss poor has resulted a lower experience of life for us, every time we get some money it’s all spent on necessities we neglected for a long time due to not having income. We don’t want to be rich, but we do want to have a stable and reasonable income where we can save up for things we want and spend a reasonable amount on living.

In that sense it would only be reachable for us if we owned our own business, we’ve been thinking of opening a record shop (that also has cool collectibles/comics/etc stuffs) with an online shop and even sell some home made art stuff. Or get really big in our current business with art commissions. Regardless one way or another, there has to be a couch or a day bed where we can lay down for when our chronic pains flare up and we will be slay trans girl behind the counter 💅🏻 lmao.

To sleep a little more after an alarm wakes me up. Every time.

The vegetables I grow to get eaten by insects less often. Giving up on kale as it's been stripped bare.

Living a bit closer to the sea would be nice too, it's only a 5 mins bike ride but close to half an hour to walk which is a little awkward if I wanted to take a kayak.

Perfect health

I want Steam Frame to come out and be in stock long enough for me to buy it. I don't even care how much it will cost, although I'd never buy from a scalper.

I've not felt such child-like excitement for a new toy in years.

To be able to live life comfortably without always worrying about not having enough money

My Master's degree, if not a PhD, preferably in Sweden or at least the EU. Space was my original aspiration but now I'm thinking renewable energy or a similar engineering field with an eye toward helping adapt to climate change.

For myself: a fulfilling career

For the world: a better society where nobody is struggling to survive

I want the world to stop being run by "the economy"'s rules and its parasite cultists

Satisfaction

Peace of mind I guess. I tend to worry a lot even though I wouldn't need to.

I could list plenty of material things I want but when I get one I just start wanting the next thing. I don't need any of it and I can pretty much buy anything I wish if I so choose to so I'm not deprived of anything I actually need.

Relationship.. maybe. Depends on the day. I'm quite content on my own as well.

Time. Yeah, that's it. I want more time. Much more.
