As an alcoholic, you cannot help someone who doesn’t want help. It’s a disease that grabs ahold of your mind and tells you to do things you actively don’t want to do. It’s hard to explain how you can just NOT want to be drunk today but then do it anyways. How you can know you’re hurting the people around you and still do it anyways. Both of my parents were violent alcoholics, but as I’ve grown and dealt with the issues of addiction myself, I’ve learned to have empathy for them.

Whatever you do, don’t marry this person unless you’re 100% sure you can deal with this disease. It may get better but it will definitely get worse for a time. There is no “former alcoholic”. There are only alcoholics who choose not to take the first drink.

I hate to say something so harsh but it’s the truth. I’m glad my girlfriend has endured me but I’m trying. There was a time I was downing 2 pints of bacardi gold every day, waking up and filling my coffee cup with it and drinking all day, sometimes passing out, waking up and drinking some more. I’ve cut back but I made.the decision myself. My girlfriend definitely pushed me in that direction and I’m not trying to take credit away from her trying, but everyday I make that decision myself.

You can push your fiance, but they have to make that decision. Everyday.

Don’t

That’s not saying much

Extremely toxic shithole.

This! My English teacher in my first year required us to buy a specific book that she wrote from a specific book store for $250. You had to bring it and the receipt in proving you bought it and aren’t just sharing with someone else.

We then opened the table of contents to “go over” the book and never touched it again.

She then said “you should probably leave those here so you don’t forget them”. Never fucking touched it again.

They don’t even allow the use of about:config in the main Firefox branch.

But you dont? You instead just say “well my parents did it, so I’ll do it to”

Is this the part where someone just leaves a lone N as a comment?

I upvoted because this contributes to the discussion of the question, but fuck you

Seize the means of production

It’s fucking open source??? Does that me we can build from source to have it for free?

I have the last version you can use free forever (and I’m the reason they fixed it, by the way)

Affinity is the best non Adobe image editing suite. The Foss stuff just doesn’t compare, imo. Even if feature parity, the UI of Foss image editing softwares is hotshit.

FL studio is beating out LMMS. However, I pirate FL, so it’s still free to me.

Unity CEO has entered the chat

I did this! I started a job that had a lot of little details to keep up with, so I started writing down everything any one told me

Some people will get mad at you, though. It almost seems like an insult to some that you cannot remember everything they say verbatim

Lucky Patcher strips ads without root.

I find them VERY useful because if you break your phone, you can just swap your sim into a backup immediately.

I remember seeing these everywhere and was super disappointed that by the time I could afford phones not bought at Dollar General, they weren’t a thing anymore.

To be fair, there still is quite a bit that can be done using ADB and no root, much more than you’ll ever get with iPhone.

But yeah, I agree my banking app is 100% of the reason I stopped rooting my phones.

If you have an OLED phone, this is still a thing you can do.

I buy used flagships.

A 1.5 year old flagship costs the same as a brand new midrange phone, but is significantly better.

I just got a S21 Ultra for cheaper than I would have paid for an A54. (Also Exynos is hot fucking garbage. I wanted to get away from Samsung altogether, but the price on this made sense and I has a snapdragon. Significantly better)
