Hey.. so this is a fairly last resort. I’m struggling. I’m 39, male, living with his wife and son. Very happily married. Except since July and until October: my wife is 650km away doing her uni prac. It’s really proven to me just how few friends I have by myself. The two I do have are the best friends you could ask for but… they got their own lives and pretty insane stressors at the moment. Ie.. C - she just lost her dad a week ago.. M is at breaking point himself. There problems mean they need time and space…

So, hmm me… neurodivergent af. Recently diagnosed AuDHD with emphasis on the ADHD inattentive. Medicated since 38.. not 12m yet. I game, just bought a 3d printer (so if you’ve used a resin printer, I’d love help learning), my wife and I go to a lot of concerts.. we’re going to Foo Fighters, Jet, Cake, Death Cab for Cutie, dizzie rascal, Hillary duff (wife’s one, but it’s in NZ so.. fuck it, should be fun. Also desperately wanna do good things for the 4th in a row.

I don’t drink much at all, but not opposed to a pub friend. I am a medicinal marijuana patient. So while I’m not a skateboarding stoner, I do dress like I stepped out of a THPS game set in the late 90’s. I am very.. philosophical. If you want the best worldly advice; I gotchu.. I just wish I could follow some of that sage wisdom myself. lol I’m a huge TMNT fan.

I don’t care about age or gender.. only that we have some things to talk about.. and they’re appropriate for friendship. :)

So some will have already seen the butter chicken dish; and I was going to do these as single posts.. but I don’t wanna push my luck with mods…. But here are some items that belong to my wife and they just gather a lot of dust. And I just think how cool these would all be as maybe not the fish… though for the Rex Hunt fan? lol

Nothing will be harmed as my wife’s only given permission to share the photos and some laughs. I do not have permission to drill baby drill.

This was inherited by my wife from her Nan when she moved into a nursing home. It just gathers dust. The robot says it’s probably a quality reproduction made in the 70’s or 80’s. I think a down pipe in the flat spot on its back and a whole drilled in the beak as a mouth piece would reinvigorate this tired bird.
