I tried replacing my thermal paste so I had to open it up and disconnect everything, then I realized I had no prior knowledge and now it won’t boot up, it makes no noise and everything is connected.

have you checked flex cables for damage/rips?
does it make any sound?
did you place the logic board on a esd safe mat/surface?

There are two things I would recommend here. Any time an issue crops up after a repair, doing a thorough retracing of your steps can help. If it was working properly before, chances are something is getting overlooked.
I might also have a look at the MacBook Won’t Turn On troubleshooting page.
What was the reason you wanted to replace the thermal paste? Just out of curiosity.
