What's a low-stakes, achieveable goal on your bucket list? (lemmy.world)

Could be outstanding, could be something you've already completed.

I like to break my goals down into a sort of ladder with the eventual goal at the top, but smaller achievements on the way. So to that end my bucket list includes such gems as:

Go out for a meal alone
Buy a fancy ice lolly without feeling guilty about it
Climb up the nearby hill without stopping for a break
Reach out to for a catchup
Finish reading the whole Discworld book series (I never did read the last one, iykyk)

Living past 35, which IS not easy being trans.

"Make it to 40th birthday" is also on my list so I can relate. We can do this!

37 and non-conforming here. A good support network is worth its weight in gold!

36 ans and stabbed 2years ago. LGBT "community" IS a joke. Trans women are alone.

Shit, I’m cis but live in Texas. I’ll be thrilled if I make it to 40.

Imagine being black, a women, Muslim,disabled,or gay...

I can’t even imagine what other folks go through. I’m a white, straight, married, male, and I honestly have it tough. It pains me to know that, in the grand scheme of things, I have it easy.

Can I ask why that is the case? I guess I hadn't heard that it was so difficult before

Stress levels effecting health and targeted violence are what I assume theyre talking about

[–] metaStatic@kbin.social 4 points 11 months ago

absurdly high suicide rate doesn't help the average either

[–] Elorageuse@jlai.lu 2 points 11 months ago

Violence, hâte evrywhere,no acess to housing or job?
