    For fucks sake it's buying alcohol in bulk.

    And being elitist like that is totally on brand. They would insist they're functioning alcoholics when it's like no, you're not.

    But i try to save some of my ire for the people involved in promoting alcohol. It was wild back when the pandemic was treated seriously and I saw vodka ads on Hulu.

    Like people are stuck at home and you're telling them to drink more? It's bad for people dealing with addiction, but then i thought of people who felt some relief about their family not going to bars only to see some actor promoting a shitty cocktail.

    I don't want to support any actor or creator who promotes booze. It's accepting blood money. Especially given the stressors people are experiencing right now.

        I was designated driver for some time before I got older and lied about an illness so i could evade pressure. Now I'm like nah I'm good and if they press it, I deploy my tactical trauma strike and tell the person how my mom died.

        If they ruin my fun at a party, I'll ruin theirs. But I haven't been to a party in a really long time, so hey. corona-and-lime
