Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. 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 ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just 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].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Piece work. Typically make $130k. Hcol (literally anywhere in Canada now) and I am poor. I have my own house, can't really afford to fix it and it needs work. It's small and the taxes are $6k/yr. I have all my bills paid, money set aside for school and retirement, not enough for either thing by the time they will be needed. I haven't bought clothing for myself in 10 years. It's what I ask for when getting gifts. Everyday the same worries, the same stresses and nothing seems to get better. Just letting the timer run out at this point. Not going to date again most likely so I'll remain alone until my body breaks down from being an ast, then probably die from the all the unknown cancer ravaging my body because I can't get medical care. At least I should be done before climate change gets really bad. Might live to see the water wars though.
