I can understand this. I get weird looks and teased for declining drinks or admitting that alcohol taste bad to me - I can’t tolerate it, it’s bad for a medical condition of mine and I’m not going to pretend to be someone I’m not just to fit in (the compromise is me getting a soft drink or water while the others drink what they want).
On the other had, I’ve had drunk family friends that were a pain to deal with, been cursed at by a drunken villager one time and had our property littered with beer bottles and other trash when they’ve been parties in our area.
That’s so awful, I wish all the involved parties would have more empathy and allow you time to recover. Hope the pnuemonia will continue to improve faster!

I agree with migrating the !casualconversation community to lemm.ee
It concerns me the volume of communities and even users on LW, so I’m totally on board with us spreading some of the load by the way of migrating to another instance.
I was having a bad stressful dream like I often do. But then I realized I was just dreaming and that I don’t want to dream this shite. So then I dreamed something else....
Ereaders. They’re light, have adjustable font size, can hold an extensive catalogue of books and have less distractions, in comparison to using a tablet with an ereader app on it.
Moreover, they allow me to escape international shipping fees which have really risen over the years.
On the other hand, nothing compares to the smell of a book and the sensation of holding one in your hand. I wish I could had hardcopies of some my ebooks for times when I want to get away from tech.
I was in school so when that was put on hold I essentially played video games like it was a job. I remember vividly playing Grand Theft Auto IV in one sitting for the Liberty City Minute achievement and I’m pretty sure I played through Master Chief Collection....
That’s weird, I can barely remember how things went down. My cell and laptop went kapult at the start at the pandemic and I didn’t have a streaming stick or smart tv yet.
I ended up borrowing a relative’s phone to keep track of the news, do online courses, watch videos and chat.
It's interesting what alcohol has done to people I know since years

What did you get up to during the COVID quarantine?

Do you have some minor life advice?
Mine is to to keep chocolate in the fridge. It’s a lot crunchier and has more chocolate taste.
Did you go to your highschool reunion? Why? Or why not?
Mine was cancelled as it should have happened during covid....
What's the most relaxing game you have ever played?
I know we usually don’t talk video games here, but I thought discussing relaxing games might still be nice
