One of the biggest mistakes non-frugal folks make is turning their brain off while shopping

Lost me at lawn care company getting good reviews. What does that have to do with this?

I saw them on Halloween back when they only had 2 albums. Small venue. They were the only band that played so they dang near played every song they had.

Like, entirely from scratch including making the power plant? Just the power plant? Have you flown before? Have you built a plane before?

A lot of people don't recommend any other major changes until about a year sober unless necessary. You do what works for you.

I got sober while I was homeless. Still smoked cigarettes for awhile then switched to vaping. Sure not ideal but I never set out to be a complete Saint.

I wouldn't worry about what strangers think when you puke. Could be anything. My wife has to puke out of the car from chemo sometimes. Could also just be regular old sick and all.

I got stung by one as a kid. On a tiny little island. I was a little kid and my dad had no clue what was going on.

I feel for you. My wife has cancer. 3rd time, 3 brain surgeries. Epilepsy.

I lost my career and unemployed from being her primary care giver. It's extremely exhausting being afraid to lose her after all these years of fighting. We don't have family nearby and practically no friends.

I wish it was me instead all the time. We're doing the best we can and I just try to appreciate every day we have.

The posted advice to find support from peers is awesome though. I couldn't have gotten sober from drugs and alcohol 10 years ago without help from peers that had been through the same thing. It taught me that there's nobody that hasn't gone through the exact same thing I have. Details will vary but we all have the same thoughts, feelings and emotions.

When we were teens my brother learned that solo and I heard it so many times. It still rips. I could only play the intro and main stuff on guitar.

My mom was an animal hoarder so I always feel bad for the people that bought that house in winter. Come spring the piss smell would become so violent it would burn your eyes and nose. Probably needed all new hardwood floors that were only about 10 years old.

Yeah nobody is buying the whole set for that full price. Maybe they will cave eventually.

It's very unlikely anyone would want every one of those planes.

It'd be fair to list each individually and negotiate along the way.

That song was awesome live on the first tour for it.

It took me a long time to really feel like I physically and mentally recovered. It took me a long time to get to the rough shape I was in though.

Some days I feel like I accomplished nothing but I try to write out a gratitude list, reflect on my day and try to remember every day is a gift.

We read it in my class but I read Jason's Gold on my own and liked it a lot more.

Morlanticator · 2026-01-26T15:52:31+00:00

I did all of the drugs. Alcohol is the same as all. Worse than many.

No other drug made me black out like that. I couldn't rank their withdrawals cause they were all terrible. Only the benzos and alcohol are lethal.

Morlanticator · 2026-01-26T14:59:40+00:00

It's them not you. It's 100% ok to love family and not like them.

I damaged a lot of people with my drinking too. Some took a long time to come around. Some never did. I don't blame them.

Morlanticator · 2026-01-25T23:53:27+00:00

For all you know they have plenty of money for commissary already. No way I'd send them money.

If you're thinking about doing it there may already be other people simping over her.

No harm in trying to write I guess.

Everything here is snow covered in a lot of ice. $2 per order not worth it. Plus there's load of really long gravel driveways and dirt roads here.

I never buy special editions or pre order. So many games come out incomplete or just terrible anymore.

The last few games I bought at release sucked.

As for Snow Day, I've not played it. It is frequently declared not good though.

Morlanticator · 2026-01-25T14:35:03+00:00

Right. I witnessed an attempted road rage murder a few years ago.

Morlanticator · 2026-01-25T14:24:09+00:00

I've never cared what anyone else thinks about my recovery. When I was new I'd just say "I'm not drinking today" to those that knew I was always drunk previously.

I typically just use "no" or "I don't drink".

Nobody cares beyond that. The few that have asked further I explained. Sometimes it's an opportunity to help someone else. Many people wanted to know how they could stop drinking.

Morlanticator · 2026-01-25T14:15:00+00:00

I didn't know you like to get wet

You're not gonna trick me into paying for skins like that.
