    “Ground yourself to be safe with electricity”.

    Some people out there seem to treat grounding as a magical means for controlling electricity. Even in so far as it’s true at all, you have to consider the situation and how it might move across your body.

    Telling a teenager “enjoy these years, they’re the best ones of your life”.

    First, tell that to a teenager undergoing severe depression is the opposite of helpful. Second, you just admitted to leading a shitty life. You got to 20 and the next 50 years were garbage?
