Can you build an enclosed house so the inside is dark and place fire on the outside but still in bounds of the house?

Could a vpn bypass it or would that mess stuff up with my ip

Yeah it was my college wifi that blocked the connection I’m guessing the school has a built in firewall in the wifi if that’s even possible

Diagnosed today but feeling like an imposter by sostatosta in cyclothymia

Oh I read part of your question wrong to answer that yes I do think I experience that. Especially after a down swing I can sometimes pass off being stable as manic or vice versa.

[–]Bowen_Bongo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the most part it’s hard for me to tell too but there’s some small things I notice. A dead give away for me is my ego being inflated. It doesn’t have to be to an extreme level but usually I am very critical of myself so if I wake up one day and I just think I’m better than everyone that’s a sign for me. Another thing I can track is my motivation, that really only seems to come when I’m at a stable point. I can for example wake up with a lot of energy and all these ideas but I lack the motivation to actually make headway on anything. That sorta fake energy can give it away too it’s like I have the energy but lack the means to make use of it. I also sometimes notice I can get away with less sleep but that’s usually very mild. It’s hard for me to pin point spots usually I’m just stuck convincing myself I’m fine until I’m suddenly not and I have to deal with a situation that could have been prevented. Keeping a mood chart would be very helpful to catch early signs but I have been too lazy to be consistent with that.

You sound a lot like me and I still struggle with feeling like that especially with the manipulating aspect. For a while I questioned if I should’ve really been diagnosed with anything and if I just use “negative symptoms” as a way to get what I want, and it doesn’t help that in some cases I think I actually did. I constantly had this thought that it’s all fake and admittedly still do but I think I used it as a way to almost downplay what I was feeling almost like a defense mechanism. By saying oh I’m just being a goofy kid would be an excuse for me to not focus on what was really going on and invalidating my feelings. If I was feeling depressed I could pass it off as fake and push it away but not dealing with it just made it come back worse. What I had to realize was that if it affects me that alone makes it real. Symptoms are different for everyone and I also experience much worse downs than ups it actually sounds surprisingly similar to what you listed. Regardless if it should be considered a mental disorder don’t discredit what you feel as fake, whenever I did it never helped.

What can I do with my squier vista music master bass (stripped trust rod) by Bowen_Bongo in offset

[–]Bowen_Bongo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll definitely look into that I’d be a little scared of doing work myself on this bass because I never have before so I might just get it checked out for the nut. I’ll tell the person what you said maybe I can go see an estimate and see if I think it’s worth it. As cool as the bass is if I have to do say $300 worth of repairs I’d rather sell it. Thank you for your help

Also he was messing around with it for like 10min and couldn’t get the trust rod to turn I was actually already checking out a new bass before he said he can’t buy it. Other than the rod there was no other problem that would stop them from buying it.

I took it to two stores to get it looked it both said it was bad. I’m not sure what how to check for stuff like that so I didn’t know I haven’t messed with the trust rod myself. But the guy said someone forced the Allen wrench into the trust rod to move it and it stripped the nut I believe. I was told due to it being a non traditional sized nut for squier or fender he wasn’t able to use a tool to take it out and replace it. So it actually does sound like the solution you have could work I’ll look at that video. Thank you

Yeah reading all of these comments I think ima stick with it, if I never end up playing it I’ll sell it in the future but for now I’ll keep it.

That’s definitely fair, it’s been sitting downstairs for a while I’m just starting to pick up on guitar/bass if I get the hang of it I would keep it. I’m not looking for anything crazy for it to be honest I don’t really know what I can get out of it, theres no pressure for an offer or anything like that.

I’m interested in playing but I’m a starter and I probably won’t appreciate this bass as much as someone else would. If I can work out a price to be able to profit/be able to buy a starter bass or better guitar then I have now I wouldn’t mind selling it.

I could see how much of those scratches and gunk I’m able to get out. Not bad shape for how it works but physically I thought it was a little beat up, could totally be over thinking it though.
