I’ve previously mentioned that I’m pretty sure I have access to my birth certificate but if you read the list of requirements on the link I gave you, you’ll see that it only covers 3 of the 5 (technically 6) requirements. I do have access to my SSN card but that still leaves the fifth (and sixth) requirement unfulfilled. As for sneaking out, I tried that multiple times over the years and every time I was escorted back home in a police car before I could even get to my destination. I can’t even go to the grocery store on my own without having my parents calling the police on me.

The main reason why my parents are like this, is because I was diagnosed with autism back in middle school. Ever since then, my parents (and really my entire family) have started treating me differently.

And it’s like, I’m not even trying to get a job or a bank account. I’m okay with not having them, what my issue is, is that because I’m limited to using “beer money” sites and apps to be able to buy things, I’m very limited as to where and what I can buy. I used to be able to buy pretty much anything I wanted to if I put in the work but then Swagbucks changed their policy so that you now require an ID to do pretty much anything on their website. I still have access to and use InstaGC but there’s only 3 websites that I use and can actually use with the gift cards they offer. I also use Bing but that’s both even more limited and extremely slow to earn enough points to actually buy anything. Every other app/website I know of is either not worth using, a scam or I’m hesitant to use because I’m starting to have trust issues with these websites and apps.

And seeing that America is slowly turning into a second Nazi Germany, I’m not optimistic for the future of these websites and apps.

A utility bill would be one of two I need but my parents pay the bills online, so we don’t get physical bills anymore. I also haven’t tried calling them because I already know that they are just going to tell me to look at their list of acceptable documents.

Okay, thanks again. The reason I asked about PayPal was because there are some websites that I want to be able to purchase things but PayPal is the only option they accept for at least some things. I saw that Coin Cards offers prepaid credit cards and I have read that, while PayPal requires either a bank account or a credit card to use, they might allow prepaid credit cards to be used instead, so I thought I’d ask just to make sure.

Okay, thank you. I’ll check these out. Also, I have two kind of a random but still related questions. Do you know if I’d be able to use PayPal exclusively with prepaid credit cards? And, do you know if I can use both gift cards and prepaid credit cards through VPNs?

How do I setup a crypto wallet? The only time I tried crypto was back when I still used the Brave web browser and I wasn’t able to redeem the BAT that I earned without setting up a crypto wallet through a website that required an ID. If it’s just an issue with how Brave handles their crypto currency, I do know of some other sources of crypto that I can try using.

The funny thing is, is that I have considered using crypto but on top of the fact that not all platforms except crypto, I also still can’t use it because crypto platforms require IDs as well.

No, I haven’t talked to anyone outside of my family since I graduated high school and I have no way to contact any of my other relatives, assuming they would even help.

As for the documentation, I don’t even know how to obtain some of the required documentation. For example, one of the requirements from what I’ve read, is two documents from different sources that are on an “acceptable document list” proving that I have a street address. I’ve looked at the list and it’s mostly legal documents from sources that I’ve either never heard of or have no legal way of obtaining.

No, I don’t know anyone who could. I really haven’t talked to anyone outside of my family since I graduated high school. I also don’t really like the idea of being escorted by strangers.

I would try going to the bank on my own, but I’m not allowed to leave the house alone because my parents will threaten to call the police on me because they think I’m suicidal.

That also rules out the last thing you said because even if I could get an ID through that method, I still wont be able to get a bank account.

I live in the US. I actually checked online for what my state requires to get an ID and I don’t think it’s possible for me to do without my parents. The only things I have access to are my SSN and possibly my birth certificate but I would need to provide several additional documents that I either don’t have access to or have no idea how to provide them. It also seems like there isn’t a way to get one online unless you’ve previously gotten one, which I obviously haven’t.

I have not looked into that, if there are other ways of getting an ID that are legal, I might try them.

My life is pretty much in limbo right now. I can’t get a job because I don’t have a bank account and I can’t get a bank account because I don’t have an ID and I can’t get an ID because my parents wont get me one. I’ve been asking for a bank account ever since I graduated high school back in 2016 but they just keep telling me “We’ll get you one eventually, we just don’t have time right now” despite the fact that they sit around playing video games all day. What frustrates me even more, is that they let my sister get a bank account and a part time job back when she was still in high school.

I was friends with some of my exs but after I graduated high school, all of my friends went their separate ways. I haven’t talked to any of them in over 9 years.

I think it might have been released to some capacity, but Metric made a song called Black Sheep but they didn’t release it because they didn’t like that it sounded “to much like Metric”. This song was redone for the movie Scott Pilgrim VS. the World, where they had Brie Larson sing the lyrics.

I’m not gonna lie, there’s a lot of music I’ve found recently that I’ve been listening to on repeat. Something that I like in music, is when the songs either don’t stick to one genre or there is some form of a stark contrast. As per the title, I’ll stick to one example, which isn’t the best example but it’s what I’m listening to right now:

I Bet You’ll Forget That Even If You Noticed That (I Was Still There) by Foreground Eclipse

I don’t remember exactly but I do know it’s been maybe about a month.

As much as I like Anime, I don’t watch it that often, so I’d be okay with just video games.

I mean, yes, but I can tell that you didn’t read my full comment before replying. I literally stated that I was aware of this issue in my second paragraph.

Not really, but I’m not against it. When you remember that in order to even get the death penalty, you have to be such a horrible person that you’re pretty much no longer human, I don’t see a problem with it. And then there is also the issue of the government has to pay potentially millions of dollars every years just for keeping you in prison/jail, so it also has financial benefits (not that the government needs more money, especially considering the fact that they constantly waste it on meaningless bullshit).

But I am also aware of the potential problems, like innocent people getting the death penalty. As a result, I think the death penalty should only be used in situations where there is absolutely no possibility of innocence. This means that the motive is clear and proven, and the evidence for even committing the crime(s) is/are solid.

I literally just finished the 3D remake of Final Fantasy 3 (PC version) before coming here. After I’m done here, I’m going to start playing Roller Coaster Tycoon Deluxe.

I also somewhat recently finished the original PC version of Doom 3 and it’s expansion pack. I understand why people don’t like it as much as Doom 1 and 2 but I still think the game was good.
