went to try to donate plasma again today bc i saw the appt pop up and thought eh fuck it may as well, it's been a few days of massively chugging water, so i went and they still said my veins aren't suitable for donating :/
dont know if im just like biologically unsuitable for donating plasma, which would be incredibly depressing, or if it's reasonable to expect i can make a difference w more regular massive amoutns of water + exercise + lifting weights specifically (the woman at the till basically said drinnk lots / go to the gym, and i wont go to the gym but anon man has weights here)
asked anon man, who is not a doctor but an athlete + biomedical statistician, so i feel he knows Some Shit about bodies, and he thinks it's unlikely im actually just permanently unable to donate, said the same thing as the people at the place basically
like i just want something to be easy and i was really excited about the prospect of like 300 eur a month extra tax free income, so ofc it's not possible lol
got a surprise extra bill of 250 eur for the privilege of being allowed to make doll wigs here, as well, so fuck knows how ill fund that
in jul/aug in the UK i am going to amke up my hours for the chess job which will be £6.5k in total, which will hae to last me until january, when i'll get another £6.5k
that doesnt sound like that much but remember i currently have no rent or bills anywhere, which means that living on ~1k a month is eminently doable, once i actually get paid, but this period feels increasingly dicey and i will probably have to ask anon man to lend me some money, which he did offer to do ages ago anyway. feel ive done ok to make april's payment of like 1.5k last until now, bc life in vienna is expensive
also having to earn under 17k for this calendar year to keep my student health insurance, hence postponing the rest of my chess money until january but next year i will give up on this bc it's not realistic and i cant just keep postponing it bc at some point like. it's going to be That Year
