Sucks to hear, you could try ordering online if you have any kind of budget. I got a $30 vape pen and its better then a $60 one I previously brought.


It still wouldn't help. It wouldn't change the fact I still don't have a girlfriend and I still have no talent for the things I wish I was skilled at. :(


Well I am sorry things went that way, my life isn't a bowl of cherries either clearly and I wasn't as good with computers I had hoped,

Just cut down on negative thinking for now and just kinda ride it out, I know depression sucks, particularly when its based on autism and low ability to communicate your needs.

What skill do you wish you had? Could practice help?

My housemate has ants inside her TV screen.
Do you know how creepy it is to watch TV with ants crawling all over the faces of the people on there?
Very creepy, as it happens.
We are trying to coax them out with borax and honey.

Pennyroyal oil and cotton balls got rid of them in my bedroom when I was teen.

It can be toxic but ants will flee from it and will break up their line formations.

I used to hope I would play guitar in a rock band but I struggled to get good at the guitar no matter how much I read up on practice tips, could never do pinch harmonics even if I was shown how to do them, couldn't play guitar solos (They are way too hard), and some songs I wanted to learn I just couldn't get under my fingers no matter how much I tried. It's discouraging when you can't do certain musical techniques no matter how hard you try and the fact most well known guitar based songs have those techniques doesn't help.

I also wanted to draw and maybe even do digital art but my drawing ability never got better and I kept getting creative blocks. I hate it so much because I feel like I was born with an artistic mind but it wasn't encouraged.

I'm working on autism treatment.
It involves a garden hose, a calking gun, and butternut squash.

I forgot to answer Dragnet's last question.

No, I don't think practice will help.

I've generally had more luck with acorn squash, but maybe up there in the Northwest things work differently.

I do feel like I have dropped into some strange world sometimes.

Perhaps I ought to come back when I have caught up with the thread.

There are all sorts of images flying around my head now.

@ Marknis - I prescribe a movie called Eddie the Eagle. If you don't feel inspired after watching it I don't know what will.

:D :D :D
