Lighting up a dark corner as we finally get our living room back after construction, start to bring furniture back in.
- Anybody else out there go through GATE or something similar? Mine was called ‘Space Lab’ but it was all the same. It seems like our memories of it are starting to creep back.
-- teens who burned out or were turned off by achieving after that. Who struggled as adults are probably recognizably classified as autistic or socially stunted. Who don’t trust when people are being nice to them because they think they’re being conned or will be let down, like we were as kids. 🧵
- who went on field trips they don’t remember, who were basically told they were special but then were dropped from it in like 5th grade and went from being kid geniuses to unmotivated teens 🧵
I’m looking for other “GATE” kids from the late 70s, 80s and early 90s - kids who used to get pulled out of class several times a week, do weird hearing and vision tests, wear big ugly headphones and listen through static for tones or hidden voices, play with zener cards and other ‘psychic’ tools 🧵
Hey @vp-jdvance.bsky.social - Get out of our town. Your presence is causing crippling gridlock in a city that still has many routes unavailable because of the hurricane.
We do not need you awkwardly buying a snack or beverage in a weird attempt to appear human, you closeted garbage pail kid.
