:sicko-yes:

Congrats! I got my first shot last week and second coming in a few weeks. I’m excited to not worry quite as much.

I will quit my job today and become a union organizer if it means rocking up to each place in a Soviet APC. Hell, I’d quit my job to become an organizer if I knew how and would be somehow materially supported.

Not to mention bringing large scale industry back into the country would leave it ripe for union and labor organizing.

:inshallah:

I’ve been looking for a way out. I wouldn’t hate being a mail order groom.

Currently about 6 weeks into sobriety and I’m genuinely feeling a lot better, both mentally and physically. It was only alcohol, weed, and caffeine but it’s the longest stretch of not being on any substances since I was ~15. I’m eating 3 meals a day and I’m sleeping a lot better. My stomach problems are slowly going away as well which was my main reason for giving it a try. I still have some issues I need to work on but it’s a big step in the right direction.

I did this over the summer and found a utility access road near me that lead into a wooded area with an absolutely gorgeous view on top of a small hill. Thank you to whichever person out there cut the lock on the fence because I had a wonderful time.

Things are warming up by me and the ice has melted so I was finally able to go for a run yesterday. It was only 1.5 miles but it felt nice to be out again. Turns out I’ve accidentally been doing fartlek’s while on runs because I find sprinting pleasurable. To be able to fully stretch out my legs and really push myself is a great feeling. I’ll be sure to incorporate more varied speeds into my runs than just all out sprints though. Running and lifting have a habit of pulling me out of my depressive spirals so I’m glad that the weather has let up to allow me outside again. I can’t wait until spring/summer time when I can run outside without a shirt again.

Aren’t they the same people who constantly rail against “virtue signalling” too?
