Absurd? On the Daily?
How do we define absurd? As in a lot of people on the planet don't have it? That would be a lot of things. Absurd as in "out of the ordinary? Absurd relative to the people in the same socioeconomic group? I'm boring. Nothing.
I guess I'll try this: A decent job that is allowing me to have medical insurance and get paid enough that I can save money and hopefully have enough money to retire, or work a little maybe just for insurance in retirement.
I don't think I enjoy that fact because I'm always aware that it is a situation that a shitton of people will never reach, and that's what makes it feel like a luxury.
I either buy a cafe con leche from a local place, or make moka (no idea why this autocorrected to mija, I am not boiling my daughter) pot coffee with freshly ground beans - not just any type, the same beans the cafe uses, from the local coffee roaster.
Also get gently woken up, no alarm, and have sex every morning.
My mornings are the most ridiculously indulgent time, every day.
Apple Vision Pro headset. Itβs way too expensive but the quality is so damn amazing. Iβm a VR developer so I appreciate its power.

Beers and cocaine. I might have a problem.
I live a comfortable decently comfortable life. I know a lot of people are struggling. We just got a house a year ago. And as a younger generation, that's hard to do these days. I would say simply having a house feels like a luxury.
