My Story
I’ve battled depression for 17 years, since I was 12. I managed to survive the recent years, but I never really felt alive. My only goal was to emigrate, but a recent mistake shattered that dream and wiped out my savings. Now, I am back at absolute rock bottom.
I’ve been working in a chemical warehouse for 4 years. For 3 years, they’ve promised new lights. Eight months ago, I complained about the humidity—it’s constantly at 20-30%. It's like working in a toxic desert. My nose is chronically dry, my back is ruined, and the sheer exhaustion recently led me to make a mistake that almost ruined an entire batch of raw chemicals—something that would have cost a fortune. The depression manifests physically now.
In the middle of this dark phase, despite working full-time and having zero coding experience, I taught myself to build this. It was the only thing keeping me sane. My plan now is to find a remote entry-level job to eventually work from abroad, but I will also keep pushing this project to the world. I don't need a luxury life. I just want to be happy. If I go to a fairground and see happy people, I get depressed and start crying because of the contrast.
People spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a banana duct-taped to a wall. They spend millions on digital art by artists like Rafaël Rozendaal. They drop $70k for a pixelated punk NFT.
My site consists of 4484 digital blocks. I am not just the creator of this website. I am this website. My soul is inside these pixels. This is my code-based escape plan. This is my fight to finally start living.
The Pledge
People spend millions on pixelated JPEGs and bananas taped to walls. I am asking the internet to buy digital blocks to help a broken worker buy back his life.
But this isn't just about me.
If this website finds a buyer, or if all 4484 blocks are sold, 50% of the money will be donated to people who are fighting for their lives every day.
Furthermore, I pledge to donate a portion of my stock profits for the rest of my life. This wall is my escape plan, but I want it to become a lifeline for others, too.
