How's everyone else coping with the infinite nightmarish hellscape of surviving under capitalism?

    I don’t drink at all (raised muslim) but indulge in some good herb. Keeps me sane living in Texas. I hide from people here constantly , everyone’s got a weird brain worm and a stick in their ass here. It’s scary to even see people gravitating to wanting to live here because of its reputation; mildly liberal at best, staunchly alt right at worst, and a mecca of “new money”. Fucking gross. Anyways I just started disco elysium

      I tried to do similar except skating but then I got halfway round and the wind bout blew me over. It was then that I realized I would have to skate face first into the wind the rest of the way. I'm not sure how I survived.

    Was active Mormon 4 years ago... It's impressive how much alcohol helps the human condition. Sunday day drinking is the best. Cheers

    I sort of did the day drinking thing yesterday but it was more to help ground me from overstimulation. I'm forcing myself to go out of my comfort zone and started helping out with our local Food Not Bombs. Yesterday was my first day and I have severe social anxiety but like everyone was super chill and I got through it. But I got home at 4 and was like "Christ I need a beer" lol.

        I modded bg3 so much that it's crashing but I've replayed every major Metroid except Prime 2 because I can't be bothered to dig out my GameCube controller and usb adapter

        But that might change
