fjord_monkey@hilariouschaos.com 1 month agoStruck by lightning (3yo), Cycling accident (10yo), scooter 🛴 accident (15 yo), crane hook to the temporal lobe (17yo), fall down concrete stairs (18 yo), knee in the head while drunk wrestling (19 yo), and faceplanted on the asphalt trying to jump over a Wheely bin wile in an “altered state” 🚬🫠 (21). Not child abuse, just my own stupidity.

The lightning incident is wild, certainly…!
I would also say that this is just you being you, though, right… Obviously, it’s regrettable all that happened and I am sorry to hear that it has impacted your health, but I would not call it stupidity. It’s just living life to the fullest and… perhaps a bit recklessly.
I am a former alcoholic - I know a thing or two about hurting myself through bad choices…!

I’ve never actually had any dependencies, just poor impulse control. I’m slow to say no to people when they invite me to get wasted with them.
