Hi guys, I was not able to renew one of my domains because of health issues(codvid-19). So when I recovered from my illness, I found out that someone has already bought it. Please, does anyone know how I can retrieve some of the posts from the Wayback machine and import it into my new site?
 
You can't use Way Back Machine to export your posts. It's simply an archive, more like a snapshot, of your site that they have on file. You would need to MANUALLY copy the content over to your new site, assuming they have a snapshot of your posts/pages that you didn't have a backup of.

EDIT: Make this a learning experience to always keep a recent backup of your website's files and database.
 
If it's a Wordpress site, consider giving a tool called Wayback Machine Downloader (Search for it) a try. Not my product. Just something that came up when trying to find a solution for your problem, but as @osake said - you should always have backups no matter what. Makes life a hell of a lot easier.
