Just venting here. I make a decent wage. Over the past few months, this is no longer enough to cover my expenses. I live very simply. I cannot ‘cut back’ on anything. I think I’m going to have to get a 2nd job.

And I’m one of the luckier ones! I am worried we are headed towards another great depression.

      Shoplifting is a victimless crime 😎

        It’s crazy how many people wrinkle their nose when I tell them I do…and generally distrust me. Like you know, “honor among thieves” or whatever, I never have and never would steal from an individual (save a real confirmed piece of shit rich person maybe), hell I don’t even steal from non-corporations.

      Leave an unmarked bag full of cash in my mailbox and tell me what you need.

      On a serious note, I have started buying Powerball tickets sometimes 🤷‍♂️

      Yes, I’ve been currently planning a [REDACTED] at a [large corporate] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] and it feels good to have a serious contingency if my financial shit goes deep south. Plus it was fun to plan. It would be insane to actually pull off, but people have definitely done it before.

      Other than that, I definitely shoplift about $2k a year from Walmart et. al. It’s more stressful than fun these days, but it always feels good to pull off a juicy one. KNOCK ON WOOD.

      I would totally sell drugs if I had any social circle 😅
