To keep my mouth shut more than it’s open.
Still working on that one, actually.
That I’m safe now.
Although that implies I’ve successfully learned it, hah. PTSD is a bitch.
No one’s worth my wellbeing. My happiness comes first. Be self suficient for my own happiness. Nobody’s special.
If your happiness comes first then it is because you are special. Which means that everybody is special.
Now at that time King Pasenadi of Kosala was upstairs in the royal longhouse together with Queen Mallikā.
Then the king said to the queen, “Mallikā, is there anyone more dear to you than yourself?”
“No, great king, there isn’t. But is there anyone more dear to you than yourself?”
“For me also, Mallikā, there’s no-one.”
Then King Pasenadi of Kosala came downstairs from the stilt longhouse, went to the Buddha, bowed, sat down to one side, and told him what had happened.
Then, understanding this matter, on that occasion the Buddha recited this verse:
“Having explored every quarter with the mind, one finds no-one dearer than oneself. Likewise for others, each holds themselves dear; so one who cares for their own welfare would harm no other.”
If your happiness comes first then it is because you are special.
I was going to write that, but left it out to not sound pretentious. Because I had no self love, I used to consider people who I loved special, but they ended up being incredible mean and detrimental to me. Even Christian Divine figures have disappointed me. So I learned the hard way the only special being to me should be myself.

I’ll just scope it down to yesterday. I intentionally short-circuited a 36v battery to see if the battery is still functional or not because my multimeter is out of power. I did this intentionally or otherwise usually in 12v environment to either test out quickly if the wire is connected, or when i accidentally shorted the terminal. The spark are weak on 12v so no big deal with 36v right?
It’s the brightest spark i’ve ever witnessed in a semi-controlled environment, second to welding spark, and it leave a blind spot in my vision for about 10 second. The terminal melted a bit, and the wire bit that touched the terminal disintegrated. Also almost start a house fire with that.
Note to self: wait until you get your equipment in working condition before you work with electric.
So ,you would short a car battery to see if it’s working??
Only on an old car to test if the stray wire connected to positive or not, or on a disconnected battery to see if the battery is strong enough for bench testing something, or to demonstrate what happen if you touch two jumper cable together while it connected to the battery.
DO NOT actively try to help anyone who is not sincerely asking for help
A small amount of selfishness is necessary for a healthy life
It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness; that is life.

You can do everything right and still lose, still face heart break, and still face setbacks.
If you had a chance to get laid as a teen DO IT. Or you’ll regret it, especially if you never get the chance as an adult.
Hot take: sex isn’t that important.
It is. Is literally what put us in this fucking land. And it’s easier to say that if you at least had it.
Is literally what put us in this fucking land.
I follow the teachings of Lord Buddha. Being born is not the point. The point is to not be born.
That’s really dumb
Life necessarily involves ageing, sickness, and death. Feel free to enjoy those over and over.
In the grand scheme of things you’ll realize sex is not a big deal. Not sure how old you are but I’d guess 20’s. Give it another 15 and you’ll realize what’s truly important. Meaningful relationships.
No. I’m way older
Intentional change happens through years of dedicated work and organization. Very few people accidentally improve themselves overnight. Even fewer wake up to discover they’ve improved society.
Surround yourself with people you want to be like.

What about Tiananmen Square…?!? That was kinda cool for the CCP!
I wasn’t there but maybe someone here was.
Oh wait.
No.
They were all killed and then turned to mush by tanks repeatedly driving over the bodies and then hosed dune the drains.
GLORY TO THE CCP AND HOW WONDERFUL THEY ARE TO ALL THE PEOPLE.
