thought I would try starting a thread for this! basically, what’s something recent (or recent-ish) that you experienced that you consider a “win”? could be something big, or something small! we’ll take all the wins we can get, here.
for me, the primary ones that are localized to my life would be that my dog made it through surgery okay last month and that I am trying to learn linux server stuff again and actually feel like I’m getting it a bit more. I love learning things, but I honestly feel like I’m terrible at this skill set in particular.
also, making this post! I have been around before but I’m relatively skittish in social spaces just because of previous experiences. haven’t had any bad ones here, just memories making it hard to shake and actually participate.
I met with success by telling my mom that the prevailing thoughts about neurodivergence in the '80s were not useful for my upbringing. I take the little wins where I can these days. I’m a guy living in a room who used to run newspapers, and it’s not fun. But I know a bit how to play everyone (else I’d not have been a particularly good editor).
