i have always wondered if i will ever chip away at my _saved for a rainy day_ money. if that time has come due to the tariffs, i can feel proud as an adult that i came prepared.

i got a degree in something something. after graduation, my parents said, "come home, we need your help". then my two brothers said, "you're home, we need your help with the kids". simply put, i work for my family as their personal assistant, tutor, babysitter, mail sorter & shredder. i don't pay any income taxes.

this is gross. i have an asknostr feed that helped me find other users only to come across abuse of hashtags like this. i would like to request a mute button that's accessible without having to open a profile.

i get an icky feeling when i see someone says _follow me_. there is a 100% chance that i won't.

i drove past six guys wearing shorts and a t-shirt, each carrying what looks like a 50 lb kettle bell in 30f. good luck to them in whatever they're trying to accomplish.

i have reached replies > posts. i am growing more comfortable here now.

today, i joined the @Raxva 🪽 land gang.

i have a friend who constantly posts breaking news from x that are too sensational to be true. i woke up to news that putin's limo exploded. my first instinct was to think it is already fake before even watching the video. it shows a parked car that looks like a limo that's burning on a street. that's it a most wanted man with robust security will not park on a random street in moscow at night. if it is even in moscow. they are tying this back to the time when zelensky said putin is going to die soon and some big name large following x users are spreading it. the machine is working as per usual.

ever since i watched this silly movie in my teens, i decided i needed a handle. as a result, i rarely use my full name or often my real identity to sign up for anything online.
