    As I have said before the house across the street from me was a party house. One of the people that lived there was a philosophical drunk. He asked me what I thought about the fact my skeleton was hitching a free ride inside of my body

    Today marks 14 weeks of totally alcohol-free days. Had spent most of the last few years before quarantine trying to kick the habit, reasonably successfully but never quite entirely (I had been exclusively drinking socially anyways since November, and if I do ever drink again it will remain so), and then for whatever reason this seemed like the right time to put 100% effort into keeping my mental and physical health afloat.

    Had a small amount seasonally appropriate herbal product at the two-thirds mark of April, and a couple of cigarettes, but otherwise been borderline straight-edge through lockdown season as well.

    At the very least, I plan to continue sobriety as long as any kind of lockdown or social distancing is in effect, to the extent of being able to safely have something like an indoor concert of nerd convention. Maybe even longer than that. I don't know yet if this decision is permanent or, if kinda like me being vegetarian for two years at ages 15-16 has led me to another decade of eating smarter, it just sets me up for a lifetime of reasonably healthier habits, but I see either of those conditions as a win eh

    Is this the story the robots told you to tell

    look we all know it's impossible to use the oven without giving yourself a second degree burn, that's just science

    edit: sometimes I can arrange it so I set fire to tea-towels instead of myself, that's it though

    I did a thing I've been procrastinating on for a year and it both made me happy in the doing thereof but also I no longer have to carry the mental baggage about in my head of not having done it and that makes me happy also.

    I minorly burned my knee the other day because I had been stirring some potatoes on a tray, using one mitted hand to hold the tray in place. Then while I paused to assess the results of said stirring, I absentmindedly rested said mitted hand on said knee.

    Man when I get sick my body immediately craves bullshit.

    Like, I just had a bunch of icecream, frozen gyoza, and ego waffles delivered to my door and I'm also kicking myself for not ordering fruit loops because I really want fruit loops.

    I haven't had fruit loops in years.

    Am... am I pregnant?

    When I went to the US I was pretty impressed by the craft beers available

    Typically the reputation is that it's a home of Budweiser and so on, which is piss IMO, but yeah it was good stuff

    As with so many aspects of the US, we export mostly our garbage beers to the world. I know so many non-US folks who have come here and been shocked by both the variety and quality of beers on offer in really any given city at this point.

    The craft beer scene in the US has really taken off in the last ten or fifteen years, but even in the 90s there was a solid industry in the larger urban hubs. I think the difference now is you don’t have to be in NYC or Seattle to find interesting indie producers.

    watching the craft beer scene grow was a little weird because I can't remember a time when at the very least Redhook wasn't in every store and restaurant
