My favourite computer and gayness and flies and loneliness

I love my computer so much. It's mine forever and I never want anything bad to happen to it. It used to be my sisters and her husbands and then it was my brothers and now it's mine. My brother gave it to me, its an old iMac (2015 make) 21.5 inches and it has 8GB. I love it forever, just like my Spiderman gift plushie. I hope nothing happens to it because I'll be real sad and I'll cry forever. I hope it always works even when its old and ancient and when I'm old and ancient  

Theres a fly in my room and Ik it's because I left the light on with the windows open. I'm bored and lonely I'm 22 and black and gay. Please reply soon and message me if you want to be my friend. I have Autism and was Diagnosed 21st of June 2023. 

  • My first computer proper computer was a Macintosh Performa 630. It was my companion for out a lot of my teens and I can fully understand someone having a huge attachment to a computer.

    as an artist it was my easel. As a student it and it’s modem was my library. Expressed my creativity there. Wrote fiction, reached out to the wider world through the window of the computer screen and started learning about the world outside of my rather sheltered upbringing.

    I still have mine. I really should pull it out of the cupboard and recondition it sometime.

  • I love that you love your computer so much. Isn't it great to appreciate what we have

    Has the fly moved out yet? Can you find things to do to ease your boredom? 

  • From personal experience can I strongly recommend you have your computer regularly backed up. Almost any kind of damage it could sustain can be repaired. But if you lose the data without a backup that’s pretty desperate.
