Cap against edge of concrete ledge. My friends and I bought a bottle of cider at a 7/11 and realized we didn't have a bottle opener. Cue that moment of brilliance from my mate.

Just finished off The Deep by Rivers Solomon, a novella inspired by a song inspired by another song. Very compelling, character-driven narrative about generational trauma and slavery, plus a tinge of romance for the MC. Would recommend.

Same for me. Sometimes I run into new communities and I'm itching to respond to a thread, but it's maybe a week old and I don't want to be told off for it.
18M, entering uni soon and looking to replace the Osprey kids' pack that I've been using for the past 9 years. I'd like a backpack that's able to carry a 14 inch laptop, a textbook or two, a jacket, an umbrella, a water bottle... A laptop pocket and side pouches for water bottles are preferable but not a must. Budget approx. 500-700 HKD (64-90 USD). Looking into getting a Jansport Right Pack (with the reinforced bottom), but I'd like to hear your recommendations.

I used to play on (pirated) Pocket Edition on my dad's phone as a kid, since I couldn't convince my parents to get Java Edition.
I built an entire city in Creative mode - with a gigantic ice skating rink - and ran around showing it off to anybody that would listen. If I looked back at it these days I'd find that it leaves a lot to be desired, but my dad chucked the phone so I have no way of knowing how good/bad it is beyond my nostalgia-tinted memory.
These days I main survival, redstone, and tech mods. I miss the days when I could build whatever I wanted without my inner critic getting in the way.

Tbh I'd never been allowed to use my phone at school (just graduated HS). Same goes for most schools where I live. Usually kids can bring phones, but they're supposed to keep them powered off or in a locker on campus. Of course kids will find a way (hiding away in toilet stalls to game etc.), but still.
I don't see an issue with the rule itself. I don't think there's really a way to responsibly use a smartphone at school. If kids really need to contact parents, it shouldn't be that difficult to ask a teacher for help. Implementing a worldwide rule seems strange to me though.

You also have to take into account that if you truly were as repulsive and offputting to be around as you think, then how would you have managed to keep these friendships like this.
That's why I always think they secretly hate me or something since I find myself nigh unbearable B)
But yeah I guess so. Hurts to know that I actually do have poor social skills but at least I've already improved from before. Deep down I still feel like that small vulnerable kid that could barely order at a restaurant to save my life.

I'm going to sleep right after posting this, not gonna reply until I wake up in about 8 hours. Thanks in advance if you reply, haha.
I (18) have always been insecure and paranoid that I'm freakish, off-putting, and annoying, especially since I'm trans and have been bullied for gender nonconformity since I was a kid. This is not helped by the fact that I've always had trouble getting people to be comfortable with me. I try to let loose and talk normally - fake it till I make it - but deep down I fear that people will see past this "confident" façade and be able to perceive the real, terrified me. I've always tried to rationalize these fears away by dismissing them as simple paranoia. But lately I've confided in a couple of close friends about my struggles and asked for their honest opinions. I'm not sure if this was a grave mistake - they confirmed that my "normal" act wasn't working as well as I thought. They pointed out some odd behaviours like acting "shifty" by avoiding eye contact, acting "desperate" etc. which sent me into a new spiral of overthinking. Logically I know that I shouldn't be taking this personally, but I cannot help but feel as if I am inherently "defective" at connecting with other people. I'm just reinforcing my negative self-perception all over again, and I'm starting to lose hope that I could ever be likable. External validation *shouldn't* matter to my inherent worth, but annoyingly it *does*. If anybody has advice on how to build up a healthier internal sense of worth, that would be neat. I'm stuck in an odd spot without accessible therapy right now, since I just graduated HS and the school therapist was incompetent at handling trans issues anyway. Looking for something that might help tide me over until I secure mental health support at uni - which I also anticipate myself struggling with due to social anxiety, I'm sure you all can relate. Thanks for reading all this - have a good day.

Yeah, I guess it really depends. A decent chunk of my school friends have ended up emigrating or going to university halfway across the world. The Internet is neat but timezones are still fucky.
