I’m just imagining the terror of getting a front wheel caught off the floor and suddenly falling forward with all your weight into a three legged table.

That doesn’t fit on a t-shirt. /s

If burning a flag is political protest, why not burning crack into your lungs? It’s political speech to protest the government and its world wide drug war!

P.S. Stay away from crack and coke, dopamine exhaustion is real and fucked

They were my boss. We’d get out the kitchen and go to the bar next door. They weren’t as terrible as they could’ve been, but definitely one of those “I don’t care till it affects me” conservatives.

They let up on the alphabet people jokes after their kid came out, still not an ally.

Believe it or not I’ve had worse more conservative business owners in my career.

I just hope to one day be able to be in business for myself and to stop slaving away for someone else to gain more means to produce.

Money isn’t speech because me buying crack isn’t protected by the constitution. If I can’t do illegal things with my money why can they?

Edit: forgive the over simplification

Bruh, what dose for them gains?

Yeah, I didn’t realize at the time.

Same guy was memeing hard about election 2016 and how you’d never see a self respecting conservative throw a temper tantrum about losing, we fell out of contact by the time January 6th happened because he kept calling me nicknames alluding to various communist leaders.

That and the same tired “LGBTQMNOP Alphabet people” statement I’ve heard several times a week since ‘05.

Heard a Catholic guy go all nuts about the fact that he had hard limits on the fish he could catch, but the Ojibwa could fish unlimited in their own sovereign lands. I tried for a few minutes to explain it’s their right they were given in recompense, and is hardly any compensation.

He just had to go on about liberals and eco terrorists and how they should be mad at Ojibwa fishing instead of the keystone pipeline.

There were too many things to unpack in that 2 minute conversation.

Btw, nice to see you in the wild outside of the folkpunk community!

Thanks, I hate it…

Congrats on 62 days, that’s no small feat!

Thanks for the support internet stranger!

I wndwyt!

I started my journey to sobriety 3 years ago and never really made any leeway, but the seed was planted.

I’ve been more mindful of my alcohol consumption for about 2 months in which time I’ve only been drunk twice, yet have allowed myself to drink all that I want.

It’s been a crazy road of self discovery, and after a lot of soul seeking that goes back decades I finally realized what I was trying to escape from, and now I’m on the road to be the person I’ve always wanted to be, and I don’t even really want to drink because of how opposed to my goals it is in every way.

It’s been crazy.
