  • You must be younger than me. I grew up in the 90s and the Sega/Nintendo rivalry was intense.

    I think it was the SNES/Genesis era when “who has the better graphics” started to matter.

    At the time, I was actually of the opinion that the N64 was a step down from the SNES. Sure the graphics were 3D, but they looked like shit even then. Nintendo really fucked up by sticking with cartridges that generation.

    I didn’t need to get completely sober (I smoke pot still and have the occasional drink; I had issues with much harder drugs and as they say, “recovery looks different for everyone!”

    Anyway, this is so true. It’s like… what did I used to like doing before I started getting fucked up all the time?

    Well, I got back in to an online game I hadn’t played in 24 years (and didn’t know was still going!), I’m big in to riding my bicycle, reading comics, almost like being a kid again.

    The grownup hobby I’m still doing is maintaining and riding my motorcycle around. However, I do it by myself now because all my old riding buddies were definitely not clean. Also, riding motorcycles is an excellent exercise in mindfulness.

    I had to cut a lot of people out of my life. I’m still very lonely sometimes, but keeping busy with these things is so helpful. I’m also trying my hand at DMing a D&D campaign with a bunch of sober people, so that will help. We’re due to start next week. :)

    I went back to school and am 5 years since I last did my problem-drug and 3 years in to a new career that is…. going. 😆

    I love cabbage for this. It’ll last a long time too!

    I put it in a freezer bag in the fridge after each use. It’ll brown a little on the edge, but it’s easy enough to shave off.

    Then in the summer I’ll plant the bottom part in the garden. I’ve currently got a grocery store cabbage that has sprouted two new ones and another one I just finished to plant today. I also do this with celery
