Had to put my dog down on the 20th, got laid of the following Friday, struggling to stay above water till my unemployment comes through. But I’m staying strong, made a list of things I need to do to stay active. I know if I sit for too long I’ll get depressed and likely go mixed.
Love to this community for all the support you give to the mental heath community
As an addict myself I can say basically yes. Not always to that extreme, think of the smoker who starts eating more. Maybe you get into marathon running? Well that’s just a hobby, right? Maybe or maybe it’s filling that gap alcohol used to fill. It’s hard to say. When you break it down, from my experience, addicts are filling some kind of hole with drugs, so when you take the drugs out most people want to fill that hole. For the short time I was in AA 90% people chained smoked and only drank coffee or soda, the 10% who didn’t found Jesus.
So can some addicts get by without something else, yea probably. But for most, ultimately the hole will be filled, just hope it’s with something positive. For alot of us, it’s just a different drug to be honest.
I stopped watching everyone after the movie. It was already going down hill for me by that point but I grew up during the golden years. I’ll still watch it if it comes on TV while I’m at a place with cable TV and it’s still good even the newest episodes. I honestly watch more YouTube videos about the history of the show and its characters
Nebraska Republicans mobilized to change how their state awards electoral votes on Wednesday, with key legislators in Lincoln endorsing the plan and Democrats scrambling to stop it....
As a citizen of Nebraska, this is bullshit. This rule was one of a handful of things I liked about living here. While yes the state is blue eyed red fish, and this rarely changes how our votes swing, the fact that the state would listen to the actual people in our voting districts if we chose a non republican candidate was nice. Felt like we actually had a say, like my vote actually mattered. If they repeal this I’ll still vote, just with an even more upset sigh everytime.
Those are all products of capitalism, are well know in all human history and are committed by more than religious extremists. You can’t just claim this is just a issue with Islam, or lump all Islam together, all Abrahamic religions, governments and political systems including capitalism have this blood on their hands.
So no, he’s wrong by mean of wild over simplification and singling out a specific people.
All are also mentioned in the old and new testaments. Again you can’t just blanket a single religion this way with out claiming these atrocities are their and only their fault. The problem here is the post insinuates all Islamic people are pro atrocity and that is plainly untrue.
While I am generally against large organized religion, if your going to point the finger, point it those actually doing it not just the people you don’t like. And if if you wanna point at Hamas your going to have to point at Isreal, Russia, China, the US, all forms of Christianity, Jewdeism, Islam, ect ect ect
Honestly I was wrong for upvoting based on capitalism. You know who commits atrocity? Humans, end of story.

Prompt was the full lyrics of a song. Try out your lyrical knowledge and guess the title of this song. The genre is heavy metal.
Is it true that addicts never stop being addicts, they just replace their addiction?
example: a drug addict alcoholic who discovers god and turns a teetotaler gay bashing abortion hating new born Christian....
