People Confess What They Desperately Want Right Now

A day rarely goes by when people who work at a job that they don't exactly love wish they could be doing or going absolutely anywhere else.

Though some might have slightly more specific daydreams.

Maybe jet setting off to the Caribbean, enjoying a long, deep tissue massage, or seeing friends and family they haven't seen in years, and giving them a big ole hug.

While others just dream of finally achieving or obtaining something that's always been missing in their life, and would thus improve the mundane lives they're living.

Redditor Brutal_Rain was curious to hear what the Reddit community desperately wanted immediately, more than anything, leading them to ask:

"What do you desperately want right now?"


Vacation!!!

"Two weeks off work without having to come back to a trainwreck."- GnowledgedGnome

One last outing...

"One last holiday with Julian one of my closest friends."

"Passed back in September."

"I miss that dude so damn much..."- theory515

Company

"A friend." - User Deleted

Financial stability

"To know what it’s like to NOT worry about money."- rachlynnv

"To not be in debt."

Comfort and relief from pain.

"For my wife to be cured of her auto-immune disease."- Kid_supreme

"For my back pain to end."- dakkadakkapewpewboom

A dream home.

"To get approved for the apartment I recently applied for."- explorador_esteban

Giphy

Just to blend in with everyone else

"To be normal."

" I have a brain injury and it is incredibly frustrating to not be able to function normally."- User Deleted

Snap out of it!

"To stop overthinking."- itsmelinlin

Very few people make it through a day completely content, and not wishing they could have or do something, far fetched or easily attained.

And even though not all of these wishes are possible, sometimes holding on to that wish is all it takes to make a day go by more easily.

Mike Johnson Just Made A Surreal Admission About George Santos—And Yep, That Tracks

George Santos is out of prison and Mike Johnson is now facing significant criticism after telling Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy that he'd happily welcome the disgraced politician back to Congress.

Santos—who since arriving on the political scene faced allegations of fabricating his background, misusing campaign funds for luxury items and Botox, and leaving a trail of victims behind him as a known fraud and identity thief—received a seven-year sentence for crimes that the U.S. attorney for the eastern district of New York argued “made a mockery” of the electoral process.

JD Vance Just Visited California—And Gavin Newsom Gave Him A Petty Welcome For The Ages

California Governor Gavin Newsom had a hilariously petty way to "welcome" Vice President JD Vance to California—once again using a viral rumor about Vance's love for, ahem, couches to comedic effect.

Vance visited Camp Pendleton over the weekend for the 250th anniversary of the United States Marine Corps and Newsom took the opportunity to mock Vance by hinting at the now-infamous—though untrue—rumor that Vance wrote about having sex with a couch in his memoir, Hillbilly Elegy.

People Call Out The Industries That Only Exist To Service The Very Rich

The only private jet I've been on was the Lisa Marie, Elvis Presley's plane on display at Graceland. I've never been chauffeured around in a limousine, arrived at a party by helicopter, or had a jeweler bring a case full of diamonds to my home for me to select from.

There's a saying about seeing how the other half lives, but it's much closer to the other 1% than it is 50%.

Gavin Newsom Hits Trump Over His Threat To Send National Guard To San Francisco With A Blunt Reality Check

California Governor Gavin Newsom shut down President Donald Trump's claim that the people of San Francisco "want" the National Guard there as the Trump administration's immigration crackdown continues.

In a Fox News interview, Trump said "I think they want us in San Francisco," contrasting this claim with ongoing ICE operations in Chicago, where citizens have clashed with immigration agents over the last several weeks.
