i hate this idea that i'm this cow that women can milk for money and resources. i'm not playing that game. no fucking way.
i don't want some woman freeloading off me.
bitch, i wanna freeload off you. i'll do the dishes, you go work for me. 🤣
nostr:npub1rm3lpean6d3avr79qrvk44f7z396pzakdqzv2azr6gwr67fhchkqh5jjh7 i mean, i'm a single man myself and i sometimes wonder if i should flee, even though this country is very safe.
i sheltered a 44 year old man from Sweden this weekend. he has been living like a tramp around Europe for the past few months. he's a man who has nothing, much like i am, but he's willing to try crazier things than i am to feel happy.
nostr:npub1rm3lpean6d3avr79qrvk44f7z396pzakdqzv2azr6gwr67fhchkqh5jjh7 it's really unhealthy for men to not have a good support structure around them. it can destroy them.

being cute gets you a lot of free stuff
nostr:npub1rm3lpean6d3avr79qrvk44f7z396pzakdqzv2azr6gwr67fhchkqh5jjh7 it's a fact that it's mostly single men who flee countries.
reliable sources have informed me that replying with a GIF makes you old
there's are these arbitrary thresholds people define for "that's tough but he'll be okay" vs "oh no, he's fucked" and both of them have a funny way of leading to the same conclusion "oh good, i don't need to do anything" because he's either fine or he's totally fucked and beyond helping.
the line between me joking and me being real can sometimes be very fine
on some days, i'm upset and someone laughs, thinking it's a joke
on others, i'm in a joking mood and someone says "sorry to hear that", thinking i'm in trouble
caught some wild fish sticks
i don't think i'll ever be a plumber or a mechanic. i don't like getting my hands dirty.
the plunger worked
but ewwwww 🤢

tfw you literally only had one item you needed to get but it takes you an hour to get there and back home again
nostr:npub16qct6ge6zdr72yxrw2cc0rsqyp9j9qrjs9pkz3gkydc839jrtk5sj8al6e well, federations are a bit of an exception when it comes
to countries. in most places, there's just the state and then various districts. there are some welfare benefits that the municipalities fund here.

at the home improvement store hunting for a plunger to unclog my sinks
nostr:npub13whz9pgleshd0w9tff3sxgl7xnlmkqe8r82hp5td45l7sg2dg5gqfkwvah it would be funny if the first woman i met in years was one of those ladies who writes letters to prisoners
damn it. i'm below financial sustenance levels this month. the Oslo district court keeps seizing 140 EUR/mo that they're not allowed to seize, given my income.
i sent a complaint ages ago. wrong person. sent another. still waiting for a reply. meanwhile, they keep taking 140 EUR from me. it's because of debts, but i'm not legally required to service them in my current situation.
also, because i had the misfortune of having extra cash in June and July, they denied me housing benefits in July and August, so that's another 600+ EUR that i'm not getting.
where's that money now? well, seeing as the rest of the country was enjoying the summer, i did the same. i visited a friend. i bought a cheap bass guitar. i drank some beer. ate some nice food, so that money is gone.
my hatred for how the welfare system and courts work in practice has grown pretty intense. if i start earning an income and start paying taxes on it, it will be much less happily than before.
