15 years sober here. Alcohol is not an option for me.
The important thing is you have discovered this and are comfortable with that knowledge. That in and of itself is a big deal.
yes, the lesson here was self-discovery-- as difficult a lesson as that was.
i admit that i’ve been through a similar one myself. i quit heroin 20 years ago.
Congrats on staying clean!
Coffe!? How? I am a little bit confused
I think that one is for the Mormons? I’m like 85% sure they think caffeine is against their religion.
im an exmo, yeah that’s basically it. The “doctrine” we get that from says:
And again, hot drinks are not for the body or belly.
this was “interpreted” as caffeine specifically, probably because the cult leaders didn’t want to give up hot cocoa.
Would iced coffee be okay then? Or they decide hot meant caffeine?
Iced coffee is also not allowed if it has caffeine
I mean, tarot is fucking stupid as well.
Atheist utilitarian technology professional here. I read tarot. Not because I believe anything mystical is coming through the cards. They just happen to be a very rich and rounded set of symbology to lay out and use to talk through a topic. I have never had anyone walk away from one of my readings without saying “that was more interesting than I thought it was going to be.” Of course my style is very interactive and I involve them a lot as we go. Of course others out there take an oracular approach that’s utter horseshit.
“I play therapist by telling my clients they are the decrepit goblin that stumbled into the stinky swamp and ask them if they want to try to get out of it by using the enchanted axe or call upon the great dragon to lift them up.”
Why is that in quotes? Is that a reference to something?
I’ll leave you to figure it out, or give up.
I figured it out. You think tarot is Dungeons & Dragons.
