My ex was an alcoholic and one of thr reasons we slit up washe was barely sober on weekends towards the end. Liked to drink 30+ cans in a weekend, which I didn't know was problem drinking until much later. It was a giant hole in our finances too, when she wasn't even working either.

When we started dating she thought it would he fun to try and get me drunk. So we spent one night with all these various drinks and hard liquors and she made stuff for me to drink. I hated every single one. The only one thay I could even finish was kahlua mudslides because it was mostly a chocolate beverage but it still tasted like horrible alcohol.

So I never drink anymore, it is expensive and tastes bad and people are usually asses when they're drunk. The most I'll have is a sip of champagne at a celebration but it tastes like hogwash so one sip is all I can handle.

My ex was ace as well. Together for 8 years so I feel for you comrade. Like you initially there was much smashing but gradually it just became barely a yearly thing. And I realized that I do need that level of intimacy from a partner so we went our own ways. Wish it hadn't cost me my apartment but oh well I'm lucky and my parents have a basement room I have been living in ever since.

The dating pool welcomes you back with open arms.

I usually just don't react, repeat what they said back to them, and they ask if I'm R slur and then I repeat what they said again for confirmation. Usually they walk away. I don't have the energy to engage people at work on any level beyond telling them where stuff is.

I also wear a mask at work so usually they don't even bother talking because they assume I'm a blue haired woke lib.

Yeah once I had my first job and was going to university I would buy like one every single day. It was so fucking good. I was drinking way too much pop and fruitopia so I ended up with cavities on all my fucking molars. Now I'm just a water drinker with an occasional grape soda treat once a week maybe. Unless I'm feeling especially stressed. So usually it's two a week actually.

I refuse to wade into this discussion.

It's like they didn't even pay attention in essay writing class. Maybe don't undermine your fucking point? If it can be that easily undermined, then don't use it as a talking point. But then you have the problem of not even being able to write about 3 things Biden has done. Which means you can't sway anyone not also drinking the kool-aid.

I mean the classic Michael brooks debate has him attempting to seize on singular data point that destiny thinks is being used incorrectly and brooks refuses to let him talk about because brooks used it correctly and destiny only cares about nit picking about using perfect examples to prove a point, while brooks only cares about the big picture (in that case that TPP and trade deals are made to benefit corporations first and not the countries who get pulled into them).

He's such a stupid fucking need that he thinks he can know more about topics from people who spend their whole lives on that one topic after he spends an afternoon on Wikipedia.

Finkelstein is correct to wonder how this bozo can constantly be so supremely confident without a shred knowledge to actually back it up. Some kind of ultra version of dunning-kruger effect.

Last week after state of the union speech, redditors were all like, "well this is all the proof we need that Biden has still fucking got it! He could talk coherently, mostly, for over an hour? I can't do that so clearly he'll be a good president and mop the floor with trump." And like 10 variations on that theme. No mention of the policies he's pushing or anything, just redditors thinking back to their ice cream Joe memes and not caring about how everything is falling apart for the bottom 60% of people (probably more and rising). I fucking hope he loses, and dies. I hope America suffers and implodes so the rest of the world won't face the blowback, even though I know it will devastate everything because American tendrils are hooked into everything.

The Simpsons arcade game. The beat em up. One of the few good memories with my dad is him getting shit loads of quarters so we could play through the game on a rainy day.

My girlfriend claims she has dated guys in the past who refused to wash or wipe their assholes because that's gay. So bar is pretty fucking low when you're willing have a poop stench follow you around forever because you don't understand basic hygiene doesn't impact your sexuality.

In 30 years they'll find the remnants of computers and assume graphics cards were just funky portable heating units. Back then the planet still got cold after all, so people needed a way to stay warm.
