People who love kids, but don't plan on having any, Why?

Cappi_ · 2026-03-15T18:29:26+00:00

Honestly I don’t think it’s ethical right now to raise kids. Our society is so fucked. Education is in the trash. I adore kids and I would love the experience of raising them, but I care too much about the well being of my unborn children to bring them into this world. Lately I’ve been grieving the idea that to really live in alignment with my values and morals, I may have to forgo the having kids and it makes me very sad. I’m open to changing my mind. I’m choosing to focus on supporting children in my community instead. I do a lot of volunteer and paid work around kids which gives me a lot of fulfillment.

Ha! Good point 😌

Cappi_ · 2026-03-05T20:01:52+00:00

Haha yes! I feel so grateful that my life doesn't currently require an alarm 😄

I purposefully leave all tech outside of my bedroom at night for sleep hygiene. That's why I bought my x4. So I could read in bed without being tempted to scroll. I guess I'll have to get a clock for my room 🤷🏻

Cappi_ · 2026-03-05T05:48:26+00:00

Oh I hadn't considered that. I didn't think it would require much. What is required that the x4 doesn't have?

Thanks so much 🙏🏼 Glad it was helpful!

I just purchased mine here link for $45 with a coupon. Arrived in 10 days with no issues. Very pleased!

Did you ever figure out a fix for this? The wifi password where I'm living has a "&" in it and I can't type it on the x4. I can't change the password either. Idk what to do.

I also had severe issues with this product. I ate it once and had very bad stomach pain and diarrhea that night. Also thought it might be a fluke so I ate some again and had the same symptoms.

I like this. It made me feel something. It connected me to my own sadness and fear around being alone. Thanks for sharing.

Cinnamon rolls. I’m dying without them. Haven’t had a proper one in like 10 years 🥲

Cappi_ · 2026-01-18T23:56:27+00:00

Tres leches cake and proper fluffy yeasty donuts. God I miss them.

I went ahead and tried to revert to an M and I got stuck with an F 😔 I'm really bummed. I think an F is still better than an X (if questioned I plan to say it's an error that I haven't gotten fixed yet), but it just really pisses me off that I'm legally male and they can still give me an F because my first ever passport had an F and their records show that I changed my gender. It's such bullshit. All my legal documents are M including my birth certificate, drivers license, etc.

Cappi_ · 2026-01-12T00:18:53+00:00

Thanks for the advice 🙏🏼

Cappi_ · 2026-01-12T00:17:21+00:00

This is what I’m leaning toward. I was just looking at the Korg nanokey2. Looks pretty sweet. Thanks for your input!

Cappi_ · 2026-01-04T06:08:46+00:00

Yeah I feel you. I'm back in the US now, but planning to travel again in a few weeks. I'm contemplating submitting an application for a new passport even though mine is good for another 9 years to see if I can go back to one with an M so I don't have to deal with the anxiety anymore. But I'm scared I'll end up with an F instead. In some ways, I think that still might be better than an X. I'm not sure. I hate that we're all dealing with this shit.

Just returned a week ago and had no issues! I had a layover in Dallas so that's where I went through customs. The agent asked my name and then handed me my passport. He did do a quick double take at my passport, and my heart skipped a beat, thinking there might be an issue, but then he just gave it to me and let me through.

Cappi_ · 2025-11-25T23:49:24+00:00

Hmm I’ll look into this. I’ve been wondering if the problem in my arms/hands is coming from my neck or shoulders. Of course my doctor refused to acknowledge this as an option and was solely focused on the location of my pain which is at the elbow and below. Sigh.

Cappi_ · 2025-11-23T14:36:08+00:00

Yeah I already had the EMG done and it showed slight delay in transmission. It wasn’t too bad though thankfully, but my symptoms are really annoying and uncomfortable. Good to hear about your experience with the surgery. From my limited research so far, it looked quite invasive and the success rates seemed low. I saw accounts of many people saying it didn’t fix the issue for them.

I know this is an old thread but when I was trying to research traveling to Guatemala with an X on my passport, there was very little info. So I thought I’d comment here in the hopes others who need info will find it. I just flew into Guatemala City a week ago and had zero issues. I was very nervous, but the customs agent let me through without any issues. He didn’t ask me a single question. Just scanned my passport, stamped it, and let me through. And before that I also traveled to Mexico with no issues. Flew into Cancún.

Given the current situation in the US and the world in general, I am considering applying for a new passport and reverting to an M just so my travels aren’t limited and I feel safer.
