Remission would be nice.

I hope that I get to reverse the trend of my quality of living plummeting.

Best of luck on that

Get those shelves on the wall. Maybe manage to decide on a new couch. That'd be nice.

Get those shelves on the wall

Eeeeh.... You can do that tomorrow, hey? shrugs

Lumidaub@feddit.org · 11 pts · 1y

Nope, can't. The walls are made of concrete, I think, some hard as fuck material in any case, so drilling is a massive undertaking that requires a hammer drill. Also don't have all the materials because I forgot to mention "have the energy to go to the store to get materials".

Have you considered getting an ADHD diagnosis?

Lumidaub@feddit.org · 3 pts · 1y

Funny you should say that, I'm on 60 mg of extended release methylphenidate a day.

novibe@lemmy.ml · 15 pts · 1y (2 replies)

Not die in the coming global wars for resources. But I mean realistically I’m not well positioned for that.

ouRKaoS@lemmy.today · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Congratulations! You get to be a low-level henchman. If you're lucky, some actor in the distant future will play you in the movie adaptation and they may even get assigned a designation like "Henchman #7" or "Blue shirt Henchman"!

I mean you gotta do what you gotta do 🤷‍♂️

Slow down, do less, achieve less, buy less, worry less. More casual hanging out with trees, birds and lizards in my neighborhood. Eat the rich.

Survival

9point6@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 1y

To have, on balance, made my life better more than worse.

Should be married and own a house by then assuming I don't catastrophically fuck something up.

Hopefully a dog

krysel@lemmy.ml · 8 pts · 1y

Moving out of the city into or near the mountains

I'm not sure. I think I would like to be more self sufficient at a minimum. Gardening, hunting, fishing.

But to answer your question, probably. And hope it doesn't come to that.

Buy a house.

Get a second vehicle.

Hopefully get a better job or a few promotions.

Maybe a second kid if the first time around works out okay and the wife wants another. She’s still pregnant with our first so we’ll see. I love kids so I’d probably want more than one.

Survive as well as possible. Might not but oh well.

Build myself a new life in Australia, get a motorbike and do lots of road trips, and maybe start a family.

Die. I have no hope left in pretty much anything. But I am also hoping to be surprised, I guess.

I hope I will be able to release my third indie-game about life after singularity. For now have only one released, but it is going strong.

Getting some personal projects and bucket-list items done:

  • Fixing my sleep schedule and other health habits
  • Getting back to my pre-COVID gym schedule
  • Making my own mechanical keyboard
  • Learning about 3D modelling and acquiring a 3D printer
  • Organizing and curating my 6 TB data hoard
  • Start learning a new language or polishing up the one I learned in high school
  • Finding better furniture and decor, preferably the old kind without particle board
  • Travelling

As always the right lottery numbers, so far I never got it right but it is what I hope to achieve in the next 5 years

Keep my sanity

gerryflap@feddit.nl · 1 pts · 1y

Get shit back on track I guess. On the one hand I shouldn't have much to complain. I own an apartment, have enough money to get by and buy myself something nice every now and then. But mentally and physically I'm a bit of a trainwreck at the moment. Burnt out and unsure what I really want from all of this. I kept going on too long in a state that provided me everything I wanted on paper, but somehow caused a lot of trouble in practice. Ignored my hobbies for so long that I don't really know how to start with them again. I need my younger spirit back. The one that just did things because it sounded fun without overthinking or focusing on the end result. But I feel like corporate life has poisoned me to think in results and plan everything in advance.

@Sackeshi@lemmy.world My own non-existence.

happydoors@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

Took a hit professionally to move states and get out of and escape a few years of bad employers. Now I have a part-time job where I feel overqualified but it’s essentially the same price for me to be a stay-at-home dad most of the time with my new baby. So, I really hope that when she’s 5, I can have some semblance of challenge and purpose outside of fatherhood again. I am a video director so some sense of creating art for fun again would be nice, too.
