My Wish Page

Inspired by this site, which outlines the concept of a Wish Page pretty well:

“Sharing your wishlist gives people opportunities to connect with you. From your list, they can infer passions and goals and sometimes even insecurities. They can quickly find common ground with you. They can offer suggestions and support…. Maintaining a wishlist promotes intentional spending. It's much easier to plan realistic budgets when all your future purchases are listed together.”

I thought this was a very nice idea for a page — and as someone with… a Spending Problem… I thought having my wants and potential future purchases laid out here might help me with, as that page states, intentional spending.

While this is a wishlist page, I didn't put it here so people can send me gifts. It's for my own reference–things I want to buy later, things I'm saving up for, “if-I-win-the-lottery” dream stuff, and maybe even some non-physical/item things I wish for. HOWEVER, if you Do want to send me a gift, you can find a wishlist here :), or you can contact me by email at [email protected] to discuss.

Things I'm Bribing Myself With

In early December 2025 I bought a digital wall calendar, it looks like a photo frame with an Android tablet in it, it's fucking awesome. It has a “rewards” system on its corresponding app; you complete tasks, you get stars, you use stars to buy rewards. I often do better when I have something to work for – that's the entire point of my fandom badges page, LOL – so I figured I'd try it out to get myself writing/working.

Currently, my bribes are…

At 100 stars, 5 stars for each completed writing task, I have these stimmy scented lava gel pens. I think they're so cute and would definitely be a good addition to my journalling hyperfixation, especially how you can stim with them. I want to start a writing journal - like, a journal for fiction/poetry/fanfiction/anything more in the realm of writing as opposed to general diary-ing - so I feel like this would help me write a bit more. Rewarding myself for writing with more writing - yay!

For every 100 stars earned for writing after that, I'll buy… probably more pens, LOL.

Wants

There are lots of things I *want* but don’t *need.* I really *want* this 4x6 smartphone photo printer for journalling. I REALLY want this book of essays on The Orville, because The Orville is my favorite thing to chew on these days. I would love to try the Palia coffee, but it may be gone by the time I’m ready to buy it. I’m always wanting any kind of screen-used prop from the Doom Patrol set, or scripts; linglingcollectibles on eBay and Yallywood Props seem to carry most of them. I love Things and I am trying to not love Things so much.

I also want to do some custom pins for an Orville ita bag, but I can’t figure out who it should be for quite yet. I have an extra ita bag someone very dear to me got me for my birthday, and it’s just begging to be filled. With pins! ;)

I’m always wanting new headscarves and headscarf accessories and fun big chunky earrings and such. I love maximalist fashion and rainbows and over the top jewelry and clothes that make you look like a grandma.

Huge Dreams

If, by any chance, a super rich person is reading this…. I’d love for you to buy me this server — or even this one! ;) I’m a computer geek and this is my dream server. Okay it’d be great to get it brand new instead of refurbished but the specs are irresistible. Buying this would be about two months of my income. Please.

Other super expensive things I want really horribly so—

I want to get back into data hoarding and take it more seriously, so I’d love this Twenty Six Terabyte desktop drive. Or honestly any of those desktop drives above 2TB. Multiple so I can make backups would also be epic.

I also really want a good Linux laptop. I have this one on my wishlist and I think it’s pretty cool. I hate Windows 11 with a passion and would love to make a full switch over to Linux.

I plan on going to campus for a hybrid online/in person course in summer 2026–I’m going to be using my power chair there, and would love to decorate with these and maybe some battery powered string lights.

Non-Item Wishes

1. I plan on getting a cockatiel or two at some point to keep Saira company when I’m not home! I love birds so much… Forming a damn flock here…

2. A fully accessible world.

3. Marriage equality for the disabled

4. To build up a hobby of writing at least a few hundred words every day.

5. To grow old with my loved ones and bird children.

6. To get my Ph.D. in English.
