Aka what I've learnt from social situations and how to act (Feel free to add)

If you stutter while ordering something or need to read off a piece of paper or phone, the server won't judge you. Most of the time they're just there doing their job and if you're nervous ordering they won't mind

No one really cares if you have fidget toys. Whenever I play with them sometimes people will stare but most times they don't notice or will look at it like they want to play with it too

Sometimes I used to carry around a stuffed animal (especially on planes) and I'd never get judged. The staff usually would offer my toys water and help me feel more at ease and like I wasn't out of place

I worked retail for five years and if someone was nervous or needed extra help shopping etc, I would always help and my co-workers would always help. You don't need to feel shame for asking for help

If you make a mistake or something you did feels embarrassing, it's most likely people didn't even notice. People are usually just in their own world, and laughing it off helps

If someone shows you a picture of a baby you do the usual 'aww how wonderful, how old are they?' never use he or her because if you misgender a baby you might get punched, same goes for pets

People don't mind if you tell them you're nervous and might take extra time to answer a question

If people look annoyed when you talk about something you're passionate about, they aren't your friend. A real friend will listen and even take notes

IT'S OKAY IF SOCKS ARE YOUR ENEMY

Having really random or 'odd' triggers is fine. I get triggered by pacman

You deserve as much social time and speaking time as much as anyone else

You're allowed an opinion and a voice

Jello is either your worst enemy or best friend. No in between

I know a lot of people who just can’t be assed to fix anything and that’s fine because then I get to have it and I do want to fix it. 

Bonus Negotiating tip for "getting to yes” on FB marketplace: say “thanks in advance, God bless” at the end of your initial message. Don’t forget to capitalize God. 😉 ● How to Darn Socks by Last Minute Laura - I want to add to this that it’s okay if you don’t do this perfectly or if it seems ugly when you’re finished, it’s probably still going to work fine! Embroidery needles and thread (sometimes in the form of a kit) are EASY to find at thrift stores, and especially used art supply stores.

I use it to do Gameboy mod kits but it also helped me feel confident in replacing little burnt out fuses, capacitors, etc. If I could have found a replacement relay I would have fixed my kettle! Pick up a multimeter if you can! Learn to use it! Related:  Soldering Is Easy comic by MightyOhm, and pretty much any Nintendo repair video, I recommend starting out on doing a simple shell swap or a gameboy IPS kit and going from there when it comes to electronics. Do not do a Joycon shell or a DS first.

● How to Replace an iPhone SE Screen by JerryRigEverything - There are a ton of videos or written tutorials for almost models of devices. I put this not because no one has ever heard of replacing your phone screen (lol) but because it is increasingly difficult to repair devices and with EXACTLY the right parts.You will often have to find your year model or even serial number and then do research on which parts are compatible/behave - usually someone will already have done the legwork so you’re like “aha this is the battery that will work in my 1st gen Paperwhite ereader”. Many phones and devices have pain in the ass adhesives so you “can’t” fix them. Do yourself a favor and get a good, plastic safe spudger and prying tools. Related: iFixit kits which are better than ever, Jailbreaking with Hexxa Plus ● Fix a KitchenAid Mixer that isn’t Spinning by ereplacementparts - I bring in this one because sometimes a scary, seemingly broken expensive item can be bought for very little and fixed very easily. There’s a YT video for like EVERYTHING. You will quickly learn to recognize how things GET broken and what their most likely problem is. I buy “untested” vintage point and shoot cameras all the time and usually they literally just need a new battery lol. Lots of things just need cleaned or need new grease or something, or have a broken trace/burnt fuse/broken plastics etc. See Soldering above. ● Oil Change on a TW200 by tdubskid - This is just to stand in as an example of some regular maintenance and familiarity with your vehicles. Not everything is as easy as a good ol’ Tdub but it’s worth getting the owner’s AND service manual for your vehicles so you can at least take care of it well so that it needs LESS maintenance and know when it is need of maintenance and how urgent it is even if you cannot perform it yourself. Plus, again, tons of YT videos and forum threads. Note: I highly recommend that if your vehicle is under warranty of any kind you don’t do your own oil changes/service or get service anywhere except certified dealerships until that warranty expires.

1. The opinion you have of yourself does not match the opinion others have of me so you should try to stop feeling unworthy of help because you’ll ‘disappoint’ them.

2. Some people move faster in life then others, so the fact that you’ve not accomplished much means nothing on for your future.

3. Anxiety and Depression color your feelings and thoughts, it might be rough now but you’ll get there.

4. Compassion and love is more important then being what society deems as ‘smart’ and ‘pretty’

5. When someone complements you don’t try to brush it away as nothing, they were moved by you enough to say it so accept it because you deserve it.

6. You are not alone, someone out there love to listen to you talk and ramble.

7. Crying is ok! Even if its alone in your room at 1 am alone.

8. Don’t feel obligated to love your family, often they’ve not done much to deserve it. Cherish your friends instead.

9. Accept help when you need it, even if you’d rather crawl under a rock and die.

10. Figure out what time of day you seem to be able to focus most to do important work. Don’t try to push yourself to do something at noon when you’d be more mentally ready to do it at 10pm. (Don’t put things off until too late though)
