  • I have been smoking weed daily for 11 years now. If I knew what I’d become I never would have started. I am completely dependent on it, I have really low/bad moods if I’m sober and I’ve lost all motivation. I am just coasting through life, smoking weed and playing video games. It really sounds like an amazing time but it’s depressing. I haven’t done anything in my life and I’m coming up on 40. I have a career and that’s it. I can’t lose weight because I simply don’t care enough to stick to it. I never traveled anywhere, I have never ridden on a boat, I’ve never ridden a horse, hell… I haven’t even gone skiing and I live in an area where it’s very popular and I have access to the best spots.

    I’m not saying weed is bad but you’re young and your brain is still developing. I started smoking when I was 26 and if this can happen to my supposedly developed brain it can be worse for yours. I used to have a drive, I used to be able to do anything. I was pulled out of school in 7th grade and I haven’t gone back to any school but somehow ended up being a software engineer. I was excited for my next steps up to management and then director. Now I don’t give a fuck. I just anxiously wait for each work day to end so I can start smoking until I go to sleep.

    Don’t be me. Be smart.

    Edit: also, avoid alcohol if you can. My partner nearly died from alcohol withdrawals. He had only been drinking for 2 years and spiraled straight into a TERRIBLE addiction. He hit his head after drunkenly falling down the stairs and was unable to function, I took him to the ER and they said he’s just drunk and to to home and sober up. I took him home and he lost his ability to walk the next morning because he had a brain bleed from the fall. So he stopped drinking because he couldn’t get his drink and went into the bad withdrawals called delirium tremens. He was hospitalized for a full month. He spent the first 2 weeks intubated in the ICU and had to learn how to walk again.

    Please, don’t drink.








  • You’re completely right. All this does is fuel more racism and elitism. Unfortunately it is the reality we currently live in. Many people who are MAGA absolutely believe blonde hair blue eyed white people are true Americans and are safe. Pointing out these facts tells them that they’re next and that all of this is wrong. Some people won’t realize their mistakes until it happens to them personally. A white woman with blonde hair hits home for many of them and could be a wakeup call.

    Again I want to say that I DO NOT agree with bringing up this information. I do not believe it should be relevant at all. It is just unfortunate that this is the reality we are living in and I believe we do need to be the change we want to see by not bringing this information up ourselves.


  • My Furby terrified me. It would just start talking in the middle of the night so I put it in the closet. It kept talking in the closet as well so I crushed it with my grandma’s hospital bed. I got in huge trouble for that because it actually broke the hospital beds leg raising feature. It got stuck in the raised position and she had to permanently sleep with her legs up until it was replaced.








  • Lol I know exactly what it’s like to jump for cover every time someone shoots a gun, I still have to fight that instinct. There were bullet holes in the front door of my family home and on the side of the house. I was taught to lay on the ground every time we heard gun shots. When I held my first gun 5 years ago I was trembling and crying from fear of the damn thing. I LIVED THROUGH ALL OF THIS. I cannot and will not defend gun culture. When nearly the entire population has them and is willing to use them against you at a moments notice, you don’t have much of a choice. Since I am a woman, and as you pointed out I am at risk, I have more need than a man to conceal carry.

    The point I’m trying to make is bitch all you want about guns in America. Call us morons for having guns, it doesn’t matter. Bitching won’t change anything. Someone has to take all the guns away before a change can be made and I’m willing to bet that’ll never happen in our lifetime. We’ll continue to be terrorized until our deaths. Might as well defend yourself if you can.
