I never imagined myself becoming an alcoholic fuckup so quickly but such is life.

You’re just arriving at 1860 America, where everyone drank unwatered whiskey with dinner and there was 5.5 gallons of ethanol consumed per year for every man, woman, and child in the country.

only to succ-brained american neoliberals is something like single-payer healthcare, which by itself would massively improve the quality of life for millions, considered an unobtainable fantasy that would require upending society

I think the original point was "they're offering a politician that doesn't talk down to them". I think also 2A stuff and curtailing abortion rights are two huge "culture" issues if boomers on facebook is anything to go off of.

just mentioning a voting bloc doesn't make their life any better, even if it is an effective strategy. i love old people *cuts medicare*

and they used the words "improve quality of life" of poor Americans. how are they doing that? the Republicans are openly against public health to the detriment of the entire country and especially the poor

when i started posting here I was making $11.75 an hour as a manager at an ISP.

many of us have had great successes and I know how good it feels to be out from under the yoke of paycheck-to-paycheck. That doesn't mean that I've forgotten what it's like.

I grew up so poor I had to dry my socks in the electric oven because we didn’t have money to run the furnace every day and we couldn’t afford a dryer.

I will be that poor again, the only question is what I do between now and then.

I appreciate this level of self-restraint. I will commit to this after the rest of the booze is gone so I won't buy more. Shouldn't last more than another night max.

One big rule about sober october gang: you're allowed to backslide/cheat. this is not some hardcore abstinence poo poo. we're all just worried about each other and trying to cut the drinking down drastically. I already cheated once and had a couple whiskey drinks last week. I had a great evening and an AWFUL morning after. it's okay though!

I've gone down from a bottle of bourbon each day by limiting myself to one Old Fashioned cocktail and then coasting the remainder of the night on High Lifes;
but a 6pk of the tall boys goes real quickly to my gut - and this is a big improvement for me because it used to be hard to keep weight on so now I have some actual body fat to work with. :shobon:

jonny you're usually a good poster but this is an exceptionally dumb take

just because you were poor doesn't mean you don't have economic, racial, and gender privilege that enable you to have your political views without worrying about the consequence
