I had been wanting to learn how to play the guitar for years, but laziness, i guess, kept me from it. I picked it up with moderate seriousness and am very greatful i did. I wish i would’ve started sooner.

    Nightly drinking. At this point, I don’t know what life was like before I started, and as much as I know I’m shortening my life, I actually really enjoy the daily stress relief - I’m weirdly happier overall these days as a result, although I do keep my intake low.

    I don’t smoke, vape, trip, weed is a no go, as it triggers psychotic thought patterns, and I don’t take anything else (unless caffeine counts, in which case, I’d rather fucking kill myself than give up coffee.) I enjoy having something to lean on. We’re all dying, some of us slightly faster than others by choice. I don’t think a couple whiskeys a night is all that bad, all things considered. The world is moving in a direction I’m not compatible with on a deeply personal level anyway, so fuck living until 80.

      There are countless ways we can find to cope. As long as it makes us happy and we can understand and accept its full effect on our lives, then i believe it’s great to have.

      I started smoking weed again during the pandemic, and was probably just old enough to do that responsibly. I definitely wasn’t when i was younger and couldn’t handle my substances well.

      Guitar playing and weed is the best.
