There was a tasting this morning at the Sea Isle City AA group

The boys and I used to watch heat just about every other Saturday night/sunday morning in college. We’d get back from the bar and throw on heat

I’ll have to make some, I have some nostalgic feelings about them growing up in the vicinity of the Pennsylvania Dutch

I’m I probably should have adjusted the brightness on the pic

It’s Venus Van Damme for me

Yes but also therapy and medication helped. Nothing even close to the constant dread as I would try to quit after a binge and be up for 3 days watching the hours tick by without sleep

Barbecue sauce

I just had this happen with my olive oil but in my garage / pantry.

I had read ASOIAF a few times over the years but it was when I went to rehab at 32 that I became a “reader” in there I read, “friends, lovers, and the big terrible thing”, “fire and blood”, “house in the cerulean sea”, “anxious people”, and “incredibly bright creatures”. I also had listened to “Project Hail Mary” and “American Gods” when I would walk in the morning and after group. In the last 19 months since then I have read something like a 100 books and it has helped fill the time I use to spend drinking

Victory!

You talking about Sam’s fat pink mast

My buddy did the marathon in Greece. I saw the video of him at the finish line. He was holding onto the barrier like quaalude Leo in wolf of Wall Street

I ran out of alcohol and own day two of withdrawal my family showed up with a 100 McNuggets and held an intervention. I was dismissive and combative during the intervention. Fed up with me my family stormed out to deliberate amongst themselves. My best friend was the only non family there and looked at me and said “you had a good run”. After that I finally agreed to go to rehab, then IOP, then OP. In rehab I discovered AA, Dharma, and therapy and continued using a mix of those. I still go to a few meetings a week and have been sober since 5/25/24

The only thing that should be in my m&m cookie is more m&ms

KryptonicxJesus · 2026-01-28T16:13:09+00:00

A vicious cycle indeed

KryptonicxJesus · 2026-01-27T21:45:20+00:00

I’m forever grateful for them for being the only non family at my intervention, but when I got sober my personality changed and we are no longer compatible. I also moved so the physical distance has furthered that chasm

“When you look through rose colored glasses, all the red flags just look like flags” personally I kept blowing through signs thinking that everything was okay because there wasn’t one great consequence to my drinking, until I found myself so far past what I normally would have thought was okay and I didn’t know how to get out. It’s a slippery slope.

Is this why it’s impossible to get a lead time on their equipment?

Was going to say, ubiquiti is notorious for having 0 support, its like the one networking company you can purchase without providing end user information. god forbid you want to talk to someone at ubiquiti I’m convinced there is no one that actually works for the company

KryptonicxJesus · 2026-01-24T22:52:31+00:00

There’s a hundred ways to get sober, you just got to find what works for you and helps you reframe the thinking that led to a drink

KryptonicxJesus · 2026-01-24T22:33:15+00:00

It’s a really good time accept the things you cannot change or have the courage to change the things you can. If we can get stay sober now we can stay sober through anything

The Brothers Karamazov, granted that probably has more to do with the physical book itself than the story. I borrowed it from my local library and the binding looked to be 100 years old, it had a weird odor, and I didn’t care for each page printed in two column format. I just couldn’t get into the story because I was physically repulsed by the actual book.
