I think about things like this all the time. Take the Louisiana purchase, the Americas “bought” a swath of land from the french. The French barely “controlled” any of it, and the concept of them “owning” it was completely theoretical. The Native Americans were the only people living in the majority of it. Rich people doing rich people things. Crazy
I spend most of my time on beehaw, they’re my kind of people
I absolutely love it here. It’s everything an old anarcho hippy punk could ask for. No regrets on leaving reddit
Library and a punk show! Sounds like a great fucking weekend!
Pride that shit up!
I still have things in boxes from 2 moves ago, maybe I don’t need them…
That sounds like a rad job!
Happy birthday! Enjoy spending time with your loved one, that’s a present in and of itself! Also, fuck landlords
I’ve been sober now for a little over two months. Socializing is definitely more difficult, not because of not wanting to be around situations where people are drinking. I live in a small town, everyone I’m around knows that I checked myself into treatment, so that’s not an issue. The issue is that I find myself being bored by normal social situations. I’m working on getting out more, and I do have a small but awesome group of sober friends. I think it’s just different now. That’s something I need to except and work through myself. Congrats on getting sober!
As a fellow poor person I completely understand
Don’t feel too bad about it. I’m in intensive out patient for alcoholism. Two months sober but I still can’t quit smoking. It’s hard, best of luck to you
I was a social worker for a while in what feels like a past life. Trust me, it’s infuriating on their end as well there’s nothing more frustrating than trying to help someone in need and being blocked by red tape and bureaucracy. I hope all goes well, my thoughts are with you
What’s the project if you don’t mind me asking?
Not bad all in all. I had a lot of projects to finish but they were all fun art projects so I can’t complain
All in all, pretty good. I finished with intensive out patient last week, so I start regular out patient today (3 months sober!). It’s my second week of my new job and so far everyone is pretty chill. My pixelfed account is trending right now (I’m not completely sure what that means/does, but either way it’s cool that people are enjoying my hobby) I’m @Swanton if any of you want to check it out. It’s only Tuesday, but so far so good
