Don't you have 3 more wishes?
1 - I wish everyone had a monkeys paw
2 - I wish everyone had a genie that granted 3 wishes
3 - I wish everyone who saw a falling star could make one wish come true
4 - I wish the person who broke off the big end of a wish bone could grant one wish they desired
5 - I wish every cat and dog had a safe loving household to live in
I work for a little mom and pop business that basically operates like an anarcho-syndicalist collective; the boss more or less does his own thing full time and lets us all run things on our own. It's mostly fine but I've had a few times where I've... almost... wished that we had an actual manager to help keep things in line.
Depending on how many fingers are left I would make the following wishes:
- I wish the entire world were governed by egalitarian justice.
- I wish that anyone who would use violence against another living creature would instantly die of a heart attack instead.
- I wish that every human has the resources they need to live the life they want for themselves.
- I wish that all people understood the true nature of the reality in which they live.
- I wish all trans people had been assigned the gender, or lack thereof, they identify with at birth.

I wish to be able to wish 3 times from an omnipotent genie that will understand and make come true my wishes the way I intended them to be undestood.
Then I'll use the genie to negate the effects of the monkey paw.
Granted, but right after you get the wish to wish 3 times from a perfect genie, you get a heart attack and die before you can make additional wishes. The monkey paw is then found by the person you were closest too, and a finger on the paw curls...
Edit: Alt: you get the heart attack and are taken unconscious to the hospital, and someone else gets your perfect genie and steals your idea. Except this person is extremely malicious and makes wishes that makes life for everyone on earth terrible.
I’ve accounted for that ! If you read my wish it says that I wish to wish three time from the genie, thus for my wish to be granted I have to be able to wish three times.
The one Guillermo and Nandor drafted in what we do in the shadows. Mostly because it's already prepared to be safe, not because I particularly care for the outcome.
I wish Senjogahara-san loved me... Wait a minute...
