Anyone else going straightedge during quarantine to ease the anxiety and ups and downs? I realize the middle of the night is probably not a great time to ask this.

so I was real mad that Pet Shop Boys and New Order are doing a historic duo-tour together and they're coming here to san francisco in sept. all the good seats were sold out almost instantly leaving only like $300 VIP poo poo / scalped overpriced nosebleed left. they're not cancelled but absolutely sounds like there's no way they're going to be playing at this rate. hopefully that gives a chance at nabbing tickets if they reschedule, i'd take the risk

I started out at 1 drink a day and then 2, and now zero because I can see where that is going if this thing lasts several more months.

What the gently caress happened? I keep rereading my own stuff and I don't believe it. I'm going to just forward it all of it to my therapist Tuesday and say, "Call me back once you start getting worried." It'll likely take like 3 minutes.

My irl friends are drinking a ton as this continues and it’s only been a month or so here. My buddy is at two bottles of wine a night and another put down a handle of Jim Beam and a case of IPAs in a couple weeks.

I was drinking every other day or so once quarantine started and it quickly turned into 4-5 on those days. I decided it wasn’t a good path if the stress was making me want to do that.

I realize the middle of the night is probably not a great time to ask this. i've only gotten stoned like twice and only had 1 cider in the last 4 weeks. i thought i'd be a lot more into it and like envisioned spending lots of time "working from home" popping edibles and playing games/watching netflix and catching up on backlog of shows/games between doing work almost non-stop, but no it sucks and have no interest in doing so i've been hitting the lovely kratom hard tho bc im a terminal dumbass

I was a drinker for a long time but in the heyday of the trump thread death crew experience I needed two big gin & tonics to be able to sleep at night and I quit but Covid has kicked it all back off again because gently caress it we're all hosed now.

Drinkfist posted:So after being fired in the last week of March turned out to be lucky for me in Maryland because I got though to Unemployment filing on the phone (I wasn't applicable for online as I moved her last June). Managed to get my mail in and mailed out the forms as this poo poo cranked up. Only issue is I still need Wisconsin to talk to Maryland UI and update them on my last year income else I get a big fat ZERO on my incoming UI checks (If they do actually come in). I order to check on how this process was moving along I called back in to Maryland Unemployment at all hours of the day and instead of getting their automated menu I get the busy signal. I called in for fun 50 times in a row and never got the line to tip and ring. Shits hosed. But yesterday I got this fun piece of mail in that says I have an appointment to be called sometime on the 16th with the reason only written as "DISCHARGED". So hope either that works out for me which would be real cool. The only advantages I have over many other people is once I saw China take such wild actions in February I successfully predicted I should stock up my pantry with a fuckton of cheap canned goods given how if I was wrong I would be enjoying Soup and Chef Boyardee for the next year. So I got a good stock of food going for me. You can turn your water back on with a wrench, and you power back on with a pair of wire cutters and with no fear (you just pull the meter out and turn the meter right side up.). pull out the plastic tabs first. you will see them. this might not apply to newer power meters.

MadJackal posted:Men are loving monsters. Yes obviously the sexism in this lingering tradition is far beyond being defensible, but this current crisis has made me wonder about various ancient traditions and how and why they emerged, and I'm wondering if the old European traditions of bowing rather than shaking hands, looking down upon public displays of affection, and wearing hoopskirts were rooted culturally in social distancing requirements that came from previous disease/epidemic situations, and similarly for these face covering, and regular hand and foot washing in Muslim cultures, or bowing in Asia, etc. I'm not saying that these traditions are right or good, but a couple of months ago it was much easier for many people to look down on the cultural practices of previous centuries (of whatever culture, even one's own) as barbaric and backwards, and now that we are facing a pandemic and need to reaarnge society, a lot of these rituals and practices suddenly seem to make a lot of sense. If I wonder now why people adopted these customs in the first place, then this makes a lot more sense than the theory that "those people were just idiots who did things wrong for incomprehensible reasons"

so while on our walks this weekend with my gf she had a brilliant idea for a way to make a temporary vaccine that would last 2-6 months (time based on targeted cell growth factors that she hadn’t fully researched yet) that would be ready to test in like 3 months (approval and manufacturing means rollout in the 6-9 month range which is nice) since it’s based on a bunch of proven stuff that’s easy enough to modify if she gets the go ahead for the project, and it’s not only effective for covid19 but pretty much every future respiratory corona type virus she sent her idea off to the two heads of research saturday after our walk when she had the idea and they’ve already scheduled a meeting on monday for it as a backup to the full vaccine everyone is banking on so yeah, that’s kinda cool it won’t be a vaccine to give to everyone but one that healthcare workers could get and one that could be given to anyone exposed to people with it which is kinda cool
