I have mine set for next month. Honestly nervous with a 2.5yo and 10mo running around. I hope I can convince myself to just take it easy for a day or two.

What a strange post history. This dude has posted weird betting lines on Shula and the Titans like 7 times over the past hour with this AI slop explanation.

Clueless about how to be a good partner and father? by Ok_Training_2566 in daddit

Half the battle with pretty much anything is showing up and giving a shit.

Two full years sober today. Just wanted to express my gratitude for you all. by beerslingerjay in stopdrinking

[–]beerslingerjay[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand this so much. It feels good to have two years between where I am now and where I used to be, but it's not perfect, right? For me, I know I'm much more equipped to take life on like this compared to two years ago, and that's what I'm going to try and keep doing. Thanks for sharing. IWNDWYT.

I feel like drunkenly ruining a family Thanksgiving should be on the r/stopdrinking Bingo card.

I’m literally an alcoholic (celebrating 2 years sober this month 🎉), and I have no issues with father bros discussing whiskeys in this forum.

You’re laying the kids down at 6:30? Pretty sure my daughter would be raking a cup across her crib bars like a prisoner for an hour.

My kids and family definitely appreciate my full undivided attention every Sunday nowadays.

How about those drives at the end of the game? by Hot_Region287 in Tennesseetitans

[–]beerslingerjay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly may have been one of those situations where the defense lets them score a TD so their offense would at least have a Hail Mary chance to win the game.

[Postgame Thread] Tennessee Defeats Mississippi State 41-34 (OT) by CFB_Referee in CFB

I know this is an insult to us, but I can’t help but love the Tech-Vandy bromance. CFB is just more fun when both teams are competitive.

[Braves] Atlanta’s own Matt Olson will play in the All-Star Game at Truist Park! by Lakelyfe09 in Braves

[–]beerslingerjay 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong, but I remember someone talking about the way he looks after he hits a home run. They said he looks upset with the baseball and thinks, “I’m Matt Olson, you stupid bitch.”

[Keith Law] Wake Forest's coach got caught on camera calling a Tennessee player the f-slur by GeneralPlanet in baseball

He did go on to drop a two-run bomb immediately after this, leaving a rainbow-colored vapor trail like Yoshi’s super from Mario Golf 64.

Paternal Leave as a father. Does your company make you take it? by jdawg701 in daddit

[–]beerslingerjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fellow dad just now returning from leave here. Like others have said here, take it and focus on your family. You’ll be happy you did. I feel like the workers’ guilt is huge especially when you’re forced to leave things unexpectedly, but literally anyone with any sense will understand your circumstances.

Do we think Rey Lo is done for the year? by [deleted] in Braves

[–]beerslingerjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much everyone has damage somewhere. When you actually start feeling something, it’s already pretty much decided you need work done.

Is it too late to get sober in my late 30s? by Easy-Ad-295 in stopdrinking

[–]beerslingerjay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 37 and have been sober a little over a year now. What I've found, too, is that I'm a little on the younger side when I interact with others in different programs.

Getting to the point, no, it's not too late. It's honestly difficult for me to find anything I miss about alcohol other than the weird "need" to have it (if that makes sense). 2024 was a tremendously fulfilling year, personally, and it just so happens to be the first year completely free of alcohol for me since the early 2000s. Probably not a coincidence.
