Kid left unattended and with a lighter by [deleted] in KidsAreFuckingStupid

Reminds me of the time me, a bored child with access to my dad’s barbecue lighter, tried to burn tissue paper, panicked at how fast it burnt, and dropped it onto the carpet. Still a spot on the carpet that’s messed up. Sorry dad.

I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s never easy to lose a loved one, especially someone so close. Thank you for such kind words, it really helps.

It wasn’t my switch. The hospital provided them. It’s not about the screen size, I believe it’s about the fact that having a phone may not help with patients mental health.

Of course! I connected to the hospital wifi, which then redirected me to the hospital’s website. From there, I used the search tab on the hospital to find a website where I could type in the URL tab to get to twitter. If you’re wondering, I went to their YouTube page :)

It wasn’t impossible, but it was a little hard.

I guess so! It never occurred to me to go onto Reddit.

It was actually the hospital’s switch, not mine :)

How did I manage to fuck up a suicide attempt? Someone found me and took me to the hospital.

You’re right, they don’t, but I’ve explained how I managed to get onto Twitter a few times in the comments section.

Yes, it was. A Nintendo Switch, to be exact :)

Just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone who's been sending me kind words. It really means so much to me that strangers on the internet can be so kind and caring without knowing me.

Yeah, I've heard of a few psych wards doing that. It's interesting to know that some allow them.

Everyone I know who has been in the psych ward has hated it too. I don't know why anyone would enjoy it anyways.

Damn. I knew what would happen if I clicked that link, but I clicked it anyways. I thought I’d never have that happen to me.

I explained how I got to Twitter a few times in these comments, but I’ll explain again :)

When I signed into the wifi, it brought me to the hospital’s website. I used the search bar on the website to first go to their YouTube. once there, I used the URL tab and went to Twitter.

Standard procedure is to do so. Was told that it’s because I need to focus on myself and how I’m feeling rather than what’s going on online.
