A Siamese cat. Every one I have ever met has had this wonderful personality, and I used to read this series of books by this English author about life with her Siamese cats. Sadly I’m allergic to cats.
Parental love and approval. I’ve learned to live without it, but there’s a hole there certainly.
I would have killed for an RC helicopter as a kid. I still kind of want one, but I know I’d crash it the first 15 seconds now.
Travel. I grew up in a working class family in a rich area and I was always jealous of the other kids spending time over the holidays skiing, going to Egypt, Italy, all sorts.
I’ve ticked off a few countries now but almost all around Europe. I want to see more of the world, just not affordable at this stage in my life.
A friend had a marble clock that I thought was the coolest thing. I’ve seen them around lately and still think they’re cool, but it’s impractical, noisy and takes up a lot of space.
I did end up buying a Turing Tumble which did scratch that itch.
Happiness and peace of mind.
Feeling loved and lots of hugs.
My dog back >:(
😔
I mean it’s been like 20 years, I’m over it, but kid me is still angsty
Less mental illnessess and back problems.
HeMan castle set.
Freedom, my own place, stability.
To be a pretty girl
Growing up now, I’ve learned I was always a girl. I’m working on the pretty part.
I’m sure you are beautiful.
I had a couple of idols in my childhood I wanted to meet (technically three, but I kind of accepted the third would be out of the question). I met one, and am proud to say we’re great friends who regularly communicate, but the other one remained unmet, and a few years ago, he sadly committed suicide. RIP Jason David Frank.
Earthbound for SNES
You can get a good quality repro cart, repro box, and repro players guide all together on AliExpress for ~$80 if you shop around. Or at least you could a year ago.
Still super overpriced, but cheaper than dealing with a scalper.
I would sooner put it on my Everdrive and call it a day, tbh. I will probably never own it unless the market crashes.
Yeah, at that point you’re most of the way to a flash cart’s cost anyway. Was a big gift for someone I knew cared about having something to display.
You never emulated it either?
Of course I have. But I am a physical game collector.
Free time.
Being able to exist without making my existence political
