Eh this feels more like a mutual aid thing, more than happy to just donate. I'll just sent ya a few shinies, wishing you well with getting some new audio gear!

If you're not looking for something very specific and are on a budget, I highly recommend the KZ ZSN PRO X earbuds. Surprisingly good sound for their size and price range, along with a decent embedded mic if needed. Even if I were the only donor, you'd still be able to buy them from their AliExpress page entirely from me at $12.84. This is the listing directly from their own website to save you a click:

OH Thank you so much!!! I genuinely can't thank you enough for this, you're a lifesaver. it's super difficult for me to focus without having something in my ears, so like, the donation means the absolute world to me right now.
I'm looking at the buds you recommended right now, they look way better than what I've been buying. I'll definitely try them out, thank you so much!!!

That's wonderful, I'm so glad I could help! Hope you get your new headphones soon and enjoy the sounds! Ages ago I saw a DankPods video where he was talking about how good they were for a budget setup, and I got some for myself so I can listen to music on my lunches at work. Easily the best wired earbuds I've ever used, and at their price point it's certainly worth every cent. Also apparently not all earbuds make that scratchy noise when you rub up against the wires, it turns out those are just bad quality ones. Who knew!
