    I have 50m2 garage I want to turn into a workshop mainly for sewing but also for other compatible activities like origami.

    My dream would be to make it available to other people as some sort of creative space.

    The objective for the next 6 months is to clean the yard that leads there, get rid of most of the stuff stored in there and find an advisor (not sure if it is the right word) to help me with the renovation process because I have no clue.

    Nothing. Recently lost my job and have absolutely no confidence that I’ll be able to get another; so life is pretty much at a standstill until something happens with that.

    Developing some home automation using NodeRed and a bunch of cheap ESP32s I got on aliexpress. Been studying up on it lately. All I really want to do is turn lights on and off, but wirelessly. Also doing more 3d design & printing, and making some kind of impressive Halloween thing - I kind of want a large floating eyeball, maybe suspended from a dark pole up on the roof so it’s out in the air like it’s levitating. The bigger the better. It would be cool to detect motion and have the eye move like it’s following people, and of course blink. And fog. There must be fog.

          You present this as a binary choice, as if that’s a given. It is not. If you want to assert that it is, show us your homework.

          You sound like a frothing at the mouth warhawk. People who have already decided that the only path forward is war. Revolution should be the absolute last resort, not something people eagerly cheer for.

    Getting the hell out of Texas. I’m moving to Pennsylvania in a month and change after living in Texas for almost 10 years and hating it here the whole time. It’ll be nice to be out of the aggressively backwards deep-red South. Kinda wish I was moving southwest instead of northeast, but that shit’s just way too expensive. Plus it’ll be nice to be out of the oppressive heat and humidity of the Gulf Coast for 8 months out of the year.

    There is a chance, albeit somewhat small, that I will finally be able to pay off my student loans in the next six months.

    Started at $60,000 and now they’re down to like 14. But I’m expecting a pretty large bonus coming up in the next few months, And if it does come through and no unexpected expenses pop up to take it away, then there’s a chance.

    I guess for me there are two festivals I am looking forward to. Also…saving. My cat got really sick last winter, which did cost me a lot and now I am trying to build up my savings again. I also hope that he will pass smoothly, unfortunately the latest diagnosis for him was dire.
