I repainted the kitchen wall, fixed the stove, removed soot marks from everything and even got the burned pot cleaned after setting an accidental fire. My parents still don’t know. I was 14 :)
You saved the day for yourself there
I’ve saved a few dozen kids (that I know of) from genital mutilation. I’m pretty happy with that, but it’s not exactly watercooler conversation.
Holy cow. Where? How?
Just on the internet, talking to people about it - a bunch on reddit, a bunch on various pre-reddit forums. I was/am a mod on /r/intactivism, but who knows where I’ll end up.
I am still alive despite the depression, suicidal thoughts, and psychotic episodes. Don’t take just existing for granted.
Not sure if number 1 proudest, but today I’m proud of the large patch of invasive plant species that I destroyed by hand (no chemicals), and replaced with native species.
I flashed ROMs every week for 5 years and never hardbricked a phone
I was able to reassemble my own pc, and get it working nicely after it messed up. I was so stressed I would break something. But I didn’t, and the difference in speed was crazy. I figured out that there were airflow problems, and there was so much dust.
Nice, that feels so good when you solve your own problem like that. I’ve opened my laptop many times before but I haven’t dealt with an actual desktop - I’d have the same fears as you
I feel like I’d be more scared with a laptop, because everything is smaller and more delicate. I don’t trust my hands with things that are too intricate.
A Playboy Playmate of the Month once asked ME out on a date.
Did you know they were a playmate of the month when they asked you out?
I did, she was a hired model for my job’s booth at a trade show. So prior to meeting her I knew who she was. She was super cool and normal, just happened to be an absolute smoke show.
Haha that’s pretty neat
Me, trying to remember which is playBOY and which is playGIRL: 🤔
Tell us more!
I got past decades-long depression and am mostly unaffected by PTSD by taking psilocybin mushrooms and working on myself.
Congratulations! So glad you’re doing better now :)
