Well, everybody pack it in.

I’m so happy Cosby has to witness the destruction of his legacy. I’m not sure what other awards and honorary degrees he has left, but I feel like this decision is going to put pressure on other insistutions to revoke them.

I also want to note that the late, great Gawker is the one that outed Trump as a meth-head, just like they outed Harvey Weinstein, Cosby and others as rapists, while being called irresponsible by almost everyone, including their own readers. Gawker’s anarchist fighting spirit is badly missed in this horrifying new era.

I KNOWWWWWWWWWWW.

20% people! Even if the food sucks (not the server’s fault) and even if you didn’t like the service you received (it’s a shit job and I don’t expect to be waited on by a circus monkey). I also tip more on breakfast and lunch if the bill is cheap because an extra $5 can make a difference (spoken from past experience).

“If I told you his name, you’d know who he is.”

It’s interesting how so many publicly unhinged people are terrible designers. It’s like a look into the disorganization of their mind.

That’s what depression feels like. I wish you luck. It’s hard to get through. My therapist said to me, “you know, life doesn’t have to be this hard.” And that's when I started trying out meds.

No, that’s exactly what it teaches. In the big book it says that those whom AA fails are ‘constitutionally incapable of being honest with themselves’ and that they just don’t want sobriety badly enough. It’s a huge cop out. The truth is that AA/NA has a long term success rate of around 5% which is the same as the rate…

Maybe it's my area. I live on Long Island. The serenity prayer and the our father are staples at every meeting and every speaker will tell you that if you don't find God you will never get sober.

This is spot on. Going to meetings you can see that it has really worked for a lot of people, but the whole culture there is based on the group-think idea that their way is the only way and that you need to find God or you will never get sober. I found it really creepy and uncomfortable.

You know, as a fellow introvert I can highly recommend online sober support groups. I can’t recommend the one I currently belong to because it’s a private FB group - but I got my start on the sober sub-reddit. Which, yes, I know reddit is a cesspool of dysfunction but I met a lot of really great sober people and we…

I am really REALLY happy for you that you changed your life - sincere congratulations.

My life got way, way better when I stopped drinking. It’s amazing how funny and fun and awesome life is when you’re not drinking your way through it. At the end especially, drinking became not fun anymore. Not at all. It was the best part of my day and I hated every minute of it. I heard last night in a meeting…

Sweet baby Jesus.

This is kinda sad. And I’m an alcoholic so I’ve definitely had the “if I didn’t drink I would just kill myself because I’m so miserable and alcohol is the only “one” there for me!”. But yeah, it’s a fallacy.

You’ve completely and totally missed the point. Seeing my brother in law through those years showed me exactly how much joy and happiness there is in the everyday things in life - he didn’t fight to stay alive out of stubbornness, but rather because it was clearer than ever how wonderful and rewarding life can be. If…

I truly pity you if you feel that drinking is the only thing that makes your life enjoyable and worth living. Here’s a story that hopefully will give you some perspective. My brother-in-law developed a form of cancer that ended up having him cycle through hospitals for years, get an organ transplant and be on tons of…
