[Scoops Novel]

Maybe we can help.

[Loud Whispers]

The world is chaos, I bear a heavy cross and I am surrounded by people who love repetition, whereas I grow bored of it easily

*EDIT
And money. Lacking it in spades. Greviously underutilised career wise. I am as stimulated at work as a potato clock. Otherwise I would say I have dealt with the most severe of life's problems well

[martinuzz]

Most of the above, and my beer isn't cold.

TBQH most of my problem was getting autism diagnosed super late and the natural consequences of up til now doing nothing about the thing I didn't know about.  Then again given the timeframe I was raised, it's doubtful how much difference there'd be.

Also, economy's fucked and society is drifting ever more isolated.

Climate change, inflation, fear, and a strong likelihood of losing the right to marry and have children within the next ... say 5 years.

If people are looking for ways to help, there's a national Women's march today at 5 PM in your area.

Uh, with the backhanded way that Autism it treated today, you probably dodged a bullet.
If you got an early diagnosis, a lot of people would have just written you off as useless. I was lucky: my mother fought against that throwaway kid syndrome.

Then again, I'm old and maybe don't know much.

As for me, I'd like to be more comfortable talking to single women, and maybe start casual dating. I'm a bit worried my singleness will hurt my career: People don't trust single men.
... it's kinda sad that I'm mostly interested in dating so I can get married briefly for political reasons, although I am slightly worried I'm creating a terribly lonely future for myself.

my beer isn't cold.

Same problem, but fortunately I'm fine with it (as long as the beer isn't warmer than room-temperature).

Other than that, well, I don't even know where to start with the whole slew of problems that is called my life.

[Magmacube_tr]

I know there are alot of more immidiate problems, but they pale in comparison against my main issue.

I live on a planet that is increasingly uninhabitable.

I just dealt with two of them today.

First one:  I have a pre-order in place with the local mortuary/cemetary to hold a cremation service and niche for myself in the event of my death. I am making payments on it.  I set it up, **IN PERSON** to be on a recurring automatic payment plan.  For some reason that baffles even my account representative, their corporate payment processor has failed to properly bill me, and instead issued me a past due bill, and a late fee.  I went in person **YET AGAIN**, provided **YET ANOTHER** voided check, and signed the paperwork to go on a recurring automated monthly payment plan, in front of my account representative.  (which she was very apologetic over.) Maybe this time the bean counters will fucking get it right.

Second one:  My long distance provider decided that they wanted to suddenly pretend it is 1960, and stop all digital payment methods for their service, and accept only "check by mail" payment. I called their customer support number, informed them that I was cancelling services with them, told them exactly why (I'm sorry, but this is 2022, not 1960, and no, I will not be using 60 year old payment methods when much more expedient, safer, and more reliable means of making payment are readily possible in the modern era), confirmed the total balance due, then pretended it was 1960 (just this once), then wrote them a check with the invoice number and the confirmed balance due, and mailed it.

You say that like they don't already.

Problem: I sin too much and pray too little.
Solution: Sin less and pray more. Would probably be easier if I went to daily mass but that doesn't really work with my current situation.

All my other problems are largely attributable to living in the end times—that and working an awful job.

I am addicted to chocolate, though mostly just after meals. And since I used to be addicted to cigarettes after meals, it's actually an improovment.

Congrats, that is better!
