It’s that time of year again when my partner gets upset with me because I’m not the kind of person that ever wants anything…

My partner always wants this or that. They mention things they want all the time. So I write down what I hear. Gift holidays are covered easily because I try to pay attention.

I feel bad though. I know it’s hard when I don’t talk about things I want. And when asked, I don’t know what to say. It only ends up causing me anxiety.

This is so dumb. What does a person who doesn’t want things want for their birthday?

    My eyebrows actually went up and hand went to my chin when I read life-size replica of Captain Picard. Lol.

    I would have nowhere to put such a thing and would never actually want it…

    But it would be absolutely hilarious and I’d love it nonetheless. 😁

      It’s one of those things that you hide away for most of the year, but every now and then, when your partner’s forgotten about it, you move it to the bathroom in the middle of the night 😁

        Oh man. There definitely would be uses for such a replica. I just had a lot of fun generating stupid ai images of this scene:

        Generate Jean-luc Picard in bed, wearing a robe that is open to reveal a hairy chest. He’s on his side, propping up his head with an arm. He has a pipe in mouth and is wagging his eyebrows, inviting you to join him.
