Drunk/High/Sober Venting Thread

And look up more interracial porn too.

Thatā€™s excellent ā€¦ and gave me what I call a WFMU moment and a small tangent for this thread.

WFMU.org is the greatest radio station on the planet - freeform radio at itā€™s best - and one show i particularly enjoy is Vocal Fry with Dan Bodah - WFMU: Vocal Fry with Dan Bodah: Playlists and Archives

The radio program Vocal Fry is a notorious purveyor of extended vocal techniques, from country yodels to Tuvan and Mongolian hƶƶmii to Xhosa throatsinging to Yma Sumac glassbreakers to avant garde weirdness to backcountry eeephing to beatboxing Maoris to yodeling Cameroonian pop to evil Diamanda Galas invocations.

Has he played Batzorig Vaanchig I thought to myself ā€¦ of course he has

it is the greatest radio station on the planet after all - have I said that already :slight_smile:

Donā€™t wait, just do it, it will help :ok_hand:

Catching up, but please run for something. I think youā€™d have a lot of people on this site that would want to help.

Deadwood is fucking beautifully written. It isnā€™t the best show ever, especially canceled in the middle, but it is so so good.

I wouldnā€™t worry about it, if you need to spice up your sex life you can teach your handmaid some tricks.

Roll call time. I took a 3 day break after an all weekend post-RBG bender but am back in action tonight. I had the worst hangover of my life on Monday. The kind you wake up at 1am and your whole body hurts and itā€™s so bad you can barely go back to sleep. I swore it off for good for the 100th time but here I am. I literally cannot ever quit because life, especially covid life is so fucking boring most of the time.

I guess I need to mix in a rant. I am so fucking mad and hate roughly 75% of the country. It isnā€™t good for me but I donā€™t know what to do about it.

Donā€™t boo rant, vote text bank.

Do you really think that is a good idea? Even before drinking today I got in some FB argument with some dickhead who posted on one of my friendā€™s pro-Breonna Taylor post justifying Breonna Taylorā€™s death because her BF was a ā€œthugā€. I told him he was a vile white supremacist and he told me he was going to find me and shove those words down my throat and beat my ass(LOL). I then completely roasted him. I canā€™t contain my rage tbh. I have unfollowed 90% of my feed. I know I know delete FB. Hereā€™s the thing I never do anything that is good for me. I canā€™t do that. I canā€™t eat healthy, i canā€™t exercise like I should, I canā€™t be kind to ignorant morons. My rage at the state of this country is all consuming. The only rare release is doing what I am doing now. Text banking for Joe Biden may not be a great idea but I will legitimately try it if you really think it is a good idea.

FB is the worst. I canā€™t delete my FB page without completely giving my biz page away and that unfortunately is a huge draw with the olds here. Better than most paid advertising available. Iā€™ve unfollowed and unfriended a ton of people. Then, I get in arguments with deplorable morons on band pages and music instrument groups and shit.

As someone who (obviously) identifies heavily with your perspective, believe me, I get it.

I canā€™t credibly tell you to completely unplug, as Iā€™m wholly incapable of doing that myself. That said, Iā€™ve benefited from tuning out Trump himself, deleting Facebook and taking time for myself each day.

I take walks over my lunch breaks, make a point to read without interruption (recommend The New Yorker or well-reviewed history books for this - Iā€™m currently reading Civil War books) and meditate even if only for 5-10 mins at a time.

As for trying to make a difference, I signed up for training to answer phones for a Democratic voter hotline and help people vote properly. I also give money but to be honest that hasnā€™t helped much.

Youā€™re clearly a good dude and I identify so much with your posts. Hang in there.

My business also makes almost 6 figures a year in revenue for like 5k/year in ad spend. I canā€™t survive without that and it is a big reason I also canā€™t quit.

The last time I got drunk (I rarely drink more than 1 beer and only a couple nights a week) I pretty much almost died after I got super dizzy in bed and had throw up, and I breathed in right as I started puking and inhaled my watery puke and couldnā€™t breathe and was gasping for my life for about a minute and after it was over I was pinching myself to make sure I was still alive it was that scary.

I wish I could enjoy 1-2 drinks a couple times a week so you are doing it right. For me it is 0 or an entire event most of the time. My doctor asks me about my drinking and Iā€™m honest. He always asks how many do you drink per day on average. I tell him my average week is 0-0-7-0-9-11-0 and he looks at me like I am a heroin junkie. Itā€™s fun.
