The alcohol industry is in serious trouble right now because of Trump’s trade war.

Plus I feel like they under pour the alcohol or barely give you the minimum if you do get one. They’re like Starbucks drinks, sugar bombs with a little bit of the ingredient you actually want.

During COVID, one of the fun treats I'd get myself to keep my spirits up was a $15 margarita from a local Mexican place that delivered. Totally worth it though because it came in a quart-sized deli container (which I'd use to store the leftovers in after drinking all 32 ounces of that margarita in one sitting).

Since COVID ended, I drink way less and I've lost like 10 or 15 lbs just from that, and I look back on those margaritas with a mixture of fondness, fear, and a tiny bit of disgust.

Never head of it before. Cool thanks.

It's not even that specifically, at least in my family they latched onto the "resveratrol has health benefits" study, and expanded that to "red wine is healthy"

Like oh yeah cookies are healthy now because eggs have choline. So dumb.

What, and rawdog reality? That seems far more dangerous for me right now.

National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism defines binge drinking as a pattern of drinking that brings a person’s blood alcohol concentration (BAC) to 0.08 grams percent or above. This typically happens when men consume 5 or more drinks, and when women consume 4 or more drinks, in about 2 hours.

By that definition, most of my drinking probably wouldn't count as a binge. I might, over the course of a day hanging around camp or whatever, have a dozen or so drinks, but that's spread out over almost as many hours.

I have seen other definitions that call any day you have more than 2 a binge, and by that definition, sure, I have an occasional binge, but I don't know if I'm a fan of that definition, it feels like there's too many variables with body weight and metabolism and such, and of course how quickly you're drinking, there's a big difference between a 300lb man killing a 6 pack over the course of a day and a 100lb woman pounding them one after another, so I like how the NIAAA definition ties it to BAC.

The fuck? Nobody is having 7 drinks on friday and the same on Saturday and claiming they have two drinks a day

Why do you think Republicans regularly try to cut sex ed out of schools?

They want them, but can't afford a nice place to raise them. It's no wonder in places like SF the fertility rate is much lower than the national average

If only conservative people have kids the youngest voters will lean conservative

Both things can be true. I think it's something like 25-30% of younger men with sperm cells so weak they'd at least struggle greatly to procreate. Probably more due to microplastics and fastfood though, but drinking doesn't help. Same reason there are so many allergies etc in the West

We'll see what happens with the crazies at the switch. They are trying to crowbar their little book club into the culture and government. I wouldn't be surprised to see their chosen lifestyle getting unwarranted privileges (again), and even some instances where they are able to compel people to be xtians.

Because the elites among the crazies certainly know that belief and participation in their little book club has been trending down for years now (losing about 1% of xtians a year or so for decades). Ironically, they may be doing a disservice to their numbers with their assault on Hispanics, since I wouldn't be surprised if some of those numbers were buttressed by Catholics among Hispanics.

Bro no, alhamdullilah America is on the path to Jannah mashallah.

I think it was just a joke 😂
