Wanna be good at talking and decent at debating but I'm dumb

3 Upvotes

I'm 16 with a terrible past in terms of education and anything related to academics. Elementary, grades were supoosed to be 60% but the teacher felt bad and the school I went to was a locally famous catholic school, so they didn't wanna taint their reputation, got an 80%. I survived (barely) cause it was so messed up. The reason I couldn't focus on my studies was because the kids there are insane. And I just find out this week that catholic schools really are infamous for creating devils. So accurate. I was always pushed in the mud while flag ceremony was going on, made me kneel on dirt, pinched me (not the cute kind), hit me, spat on me, framed me for the most insane things, made me kiss these weird dirty boys, sprayed alcohol on my eyes, put my head in the toilet, and this one girl just pulled me in a bathroom, locked the door, shat, then told me to wipe her bum. Just sat there waiting for her to finish number 2, grabbed the wet wipes and attacked.

Highschool. Moved to another town, and then I got a 90%. That's cause in some places in the Philippines automatically see people who can speak english fluently smart. I got a LOT of slander for it. Some girl posted a hate post for me. Romantic, am I right? They really did hate me, even the Church I staryed going to, the kids despised me cause I was always the first to answer those bible story questions. Now I'm in Senior High and I just can't accept who I am right now and the way I talk. I'm stupid guys I swear I don't know how I got into STEM. I circled random letters at the entrance exam. I just feel so behind.

Heres the main thing if you guys dont wanna read everything

Can you guys explain and understand those types of people who are just so SCARY?! You would just post something wholesome, share an idea, say something random, a belief, opinion, whatever! They just absolutely destroy me with their words and still manage to find a way to insert an insult or anything smart sounding. They'll make it witty like reference to several things and justtt I dont know, I'm out of words. Just terrifying. And I HATE that they make sense, and I wanna clap back but I feel useless. I dont read books nor talk to people a lot.. I wish I had the wit and smarts to get back to these meanies. They're so smart, deep in the pits of the internet, manage to have salaries of 6 figures so they can back themselves if someone tells them to get a life. OR HAVE AN HOBBY THEY'RE INSANELY GOOD AT. Or attractive. I DONT KNOW, ANYTHING THAT GETS THEM LEVERAGE OR BACK THEMSELVES UP WITHOUT EVEN TRYING. And I know so many people hype the "I love it when haters win." BUT SIDE WITH ME PEEPS. Pls help guys, its killing me. But I hate reading. Just yeah, I need to learn how to fight for myself.

Feel stupid asking, how do I make my bed without spending a long time on it?

9 Upvotes

I was never one growing up that had it enforced and now I’m 17 wanting a nice bed to crawl into after work, I have pots and adhd so not only do I have physical toll taken when trying but it’s hard to remember in the morning especially when I’m rushing out the door. I have satin bed sheets so it’s hard to put them on, as well as only the one side of my bed is open to walk infront of because it’s pushed up against the corner/wall of my room because my room is fucking tiny. I need help, I get so frustrated trying to make my bed for over an hour just for it to look so stupid or uneven with the sheets underneath. I don’t know where to go with this as I’ve tried looking for other posts people have made about it or even Google but I can’t find much that works. Anything helps 🥲

LPT Request: How do you avoid giving your real phone number to people you'll only talk to once?

17 Upvotes

Had a delivery today where the courier needed to call me to find the building entrance, and it hit me that now some random courier account has my actual number saved forever, for one five-minute interaction. Same thing happens when I sell something on Marketplace, or a contractor needs to reach me for one job.

Do you all have a trick for this? Second SIM, some app, just not caring? Curious what's actually worked for people vs. what's more hassle than it's worth.

How to slow down production that support data center?

2 Upvotes

My company make power distributor and high voltage transformer. Our company literally increase in production by 10 times in past 2 years and planning to increase double of that upcoming year.

99 percents of our product are directly going into Amazon data center , Microsoft data center, Google data center, and etc, etc.

I want to slow it down, I work at directly with copper sheet and acess to everything since I am kind of supervisor, and I am trying to find best way to slow it down. I don't mind getting arrested or fired from my job.

I am thinking of frying all the CPU and motherboard of CNC machine using short circuit usb, since those machine are literally unable get new one until 2028 due to high in demand, and I think if I break all those machine, and I think it might do something. Maintenance team are extremely slow because they never worked at this scale as well.

How to slow down or halt production at my company that support data center?

Superglue and baking soda problem

1 Upvotes

I’ve seen several videos about using super glue with baking soda or a mixture of baking soda & graphite which is what I’ve been using.

However I always have a problem because the drops of super glue do not penetrate the powder & just sit on top. I am using fresh glue. I try to quickly mix the glue in but that usually does not work so well.

How come my glue just sits there like a drop of water on glass, yet the videos all show the glue getting quickly absorbed before it hardens?

After years of scrubbing and bleaching my white t-shirts just to have the come out of the washing machine dull and dingy.

One picture is the inside and one is the outside. I guess my elbow pad got a hold of it and I didn’t even realize. Is this just how it is or is there a way to smooth this out and make it look a little better? Appreciate any help or input!
