Poisoning all expensive filet mignon and red wine was just an idea. A provocative idea. Not a particularly practical idea.

Kalle Lasn of Adbusters advocates for a "True Cost." The "True Cost" of a fossil fuel burning car is not $35,000 but should be the total cost to ecology. I have no idea how this would actually get put into effect and the economists will never go for it but it is an idea.

I've had violent fantasies in my past but where I am today is somewhere between "resist not evil" meaning I don't even resort to violence in self-defense and resorting to violence in self-defense is ok. Then it goes on to the idea of is revolution self-defense against the tyrannical masters or is it something else?

I am in a better place though. "AdBusters" and "Manufacturing Consent" as well as "Meditations" are on my night stand currently being read. I've got a Jesus Christ, Gandhi, MLK, Mandela vibe going on in my room with paintings of Christ and statues of the Buddha to keep me company. I don't even really know what that last statement even means. I'm just surrounding myself with the right people is what I am trying to convey. Too many people to even mention. Too many books to read.

To be honest I think I may be a bit depressed. I don't feel like trimming my beard, taking a shower, brushing my teeth, getting some food. I'll eventually likely get to all of these things but I found myself in a bit of a reverie after reading AdBusters I thought I might flesh it out with some writing and thinking and writing and thinking.

I think we need all the ideas we can get if we want to avoid extinction or even just some fucked up mental dystopia. I agree with Peter Joesph that the mental dystopia will reach us first in about 50 years pretty much on the same timeline that the fish disappear. It's pretty much over at that point. The increase in suicides is yet another marker that shit ain't right. It will only increase if changes are not made. Part of me wants to say fuck it let's enjoy life while it lasts but number 1 I am not really enjoying life and number two the suffering of future generations weighs colossally on my heart. If it were the case that everyone takes a pill and goes into extinction hand in hand that is one thing but the next 200 years is going to be fucking brutal if we don't make some changes asap.

I never said it would work out in the end. We are in a lot of trouble if only I am worrying about it.

Let's say my life expectancy is 85. I die when shit starts to get real harry. I am still suffering through capitalism for 50 years though. I said there is an impulse to say fuck it and enjoy life but that's not really possible. But rich boomers actually can and do indulge in that impulse in large numbers. "Fuck it, that's not real (I'll be dead anyway)." All they care about is their Medicare, Social Security, and investment positions. There's no incentive to even look at the science. Just like there is no incentive to take a look at capitalism. The science doesn't serve their interests just as the truths about capitalism doesn't serve their interests. So, the science becomes fake news even in the eyes of people with science degrees. Being in business skews a lot.

I'd imagine you are in the same boat Santafairy? Coveting your Speedmaster or Daytona or whatever watch. I was once there in poker. A smart watch was the symbol that you were a success and not some "loser living in someone's basement grinding micro stakes." I chose to prove that by buying expensive vodka and champagne in fake ass clubs. I remember talking to one particular woman and she was questioning my success at poker and I was just like "I'm here nigga. I'm here!" Meaning I am here in Vegas with a VIP table. Which actually doesn't mean that much. In those days if I was unhappy and had $20,000 sitting around it was time to travel somewhere. Maybe I can run away from myself. The novelty was stupendous but ultimately I always had to bring myself along. This is not to say I didn't enjoy my time traveling or partying. Sometimes I did, sometimes I didn't. At the end of the day it was more about the people I met. Whether that's living in downtown Buenos Aires or out in the farms on Gozo Island, Malta. Of course, later when I had a corporate job and didn't have the freedom to travel I would spend my disposable income on things like the W Hotel in downtown Chicago when my friend's couch was offered or I would buy the infamous Le Corbusier lamp that still sits in my brother's basement. I would wear tailored suits to bourgeois events. Again, the only thing that mattered was the people. I can't outrun the pain by buying a lamp or a tailored suit even if these things illicit a certain feeling. Wearing a nice tailored suit or tux can make a man feel bulletproof until it doesn't. I'm happy now in sweatpants. You know you can make a good batch of rice and beans that serves about 4 for less than $20? Probably, only poor people know that bananas cost like $1 for 4-5 of them. I fear that's because they brutally exploit the workers (which they do). The capitalists make everything so hazy though. I try to minimize consumption as much as possible but it seems like I can never win. I buy Tom's toothpaste that is owned by Colgate. When that runs out I use the Colgate my dentist gives me at appointments. There is no escaping capitalism. Or is there?

If I go the NGO route I'm not escaping capitalism. That's been a rough one for me too. Everything is like Administrative Assistant or Program Director which I don't know if I am qualified for anything anywhere at this point. It feels bad man.

It's got me thinking I belong in some commune somewhere or just out in the middle of a forest. But a current in my life is that it's always been about the people so I just have to continue going to these recovery meetings and making connections with people. It's the only thing I know at this point.

I could go to Food Not Bombs this Sunday. Meet some leftists in this city and help some people get a meal.

I found out my best friend in this city is back doing drugs. Shows how healthy I was doing before locking in some more meetings and connections. He moved to a new place, we stopped communicating and then he's doing drugs again. I'm not saying that is the reason I am just saying guys stop communicating and connecting with people and they are back on the drugs pretty quick.

I think I have found a handful of meetings now that I feel relatively good about. Now, it's just about being consistent. I guess I could also seek out socialist and communists groups, leftist groups, anarchist groups and do the same.

Peace and love brothers and sisters.

  the ice is melting but rikd made himself depressed. so relax everyone problem solved



I've spent some time with good people the last couple days... I think I was teetering on depression but hanging out with some people brought me out of that. I'm more depressed about the state of neoliberal capitalism in 2020 than 2070 because I'm currently living through it and it kind of sucks. I don't think i'm particularly optimistic or pessimistic about the future but the probable outcomes don't look great overall. If I continue to be consistent in being social, find a good job, meet a woman my life probably doesn't suck as much. Those are just 3 things. 3 things that are not impossible or shouldn't even really be too difficult.

I realize being depressed doesn't "solve any problems" but besides some behavioral factors I can't really help whether I'm depressed or not. Simply put not sleeping too much, being with people, and being in nature are probably the simplest 3 to keep me above water but it can get to a certain point where I don't feel like doing any of those things. I have to force myself to do them.

What about your decadent man bag hunt? Criticizing Into Infinity for not buying the "right" watch?

It's a good trait not to get trapped by luxury.


Santafairy   Korea (South). Jan 12 2020 06:24. Posts 2225

then watch movie no country for old men

how was that decadent it was like $130 not a fucking birkin. it's a bag i can put stuff in it looks nice my style

for the price of a speedy you could have 100 casios

a daytona is 5 figures

it's unfair or judgmental because i don't have the whole picture but in that case i was teasing him for buying something expensive and cliche instead of having his own taste yet not being on the level to get something even more snooty. on the other hand they are classic for a reason.

if you're not losing sleep you're still obviously losing your waking time

The fact that you know what a birken is or a daytona shows that you give some fucks about luxury.

I don't mind losing some waking time on thinking about how to reverse the extinction of humans and probably most living beings on Earth. Probably everybody besides Greta Thunberg and some others should spend some more time thinking about it. Again, it's not even about the extinction it's the amount of suffering that goes along with it.

Actually it's more like saying you know who Kim's sister's ex-boyfriend is, which probably has some correlation to interest in reality TV sluts.

Everyone knows Kim K, so the fashion equivalent would be like knowing the name Rolex or Prada. I've never heard of Birken or Daytona (re: fashion) outside of this blog, I had to google what they are (apparently Daytona is a type of Rolex?).

I don't care if people are into expensive fashion stuff btw, just pointing out the logic fail.

Yeah, cuz Tolstoy wrote extensively on Birken bags and Daytonas.

At some point you had to care about luxury to know what those 2 things are. I only knew what Birken bag was because Jay Z rapped about getting his girl one and how it was a next level move. This was at a time that I cared about luxury so even though I currently don't care about luxury I still have all that knowledge. "Crude resentment of knowledge." LOL. There is no resentment here. Just that if you can write a post about how the "Daytona" is a better play than the "Speedmaster" you obviously at some point in your life cared about luxury. I had to google both "Daytona" and "Speedmaster" and I admit I used to care a lot about luxury.


RiKD    United States. Jan 14 2020 06:11. Posts 8520

A quick google search says Birkin makes male bags now.

No one said it's your ultimate goal in life but if you could afford it you'd probably have one.

I don't need a bag so I don't have one. If I were to get a bag it would be some practical hiking backpack. At this point I would never get a leather bag because I am boycotting leather products because it's fucking cruel and unethical. Leather is an example of TOP DOWN COOL that needs to end. Nike is another one. Louie Vuitton another. I feel a lot better about myself just wearing whatever vegan shit seems to make sense for that day.

I can buy a pair of Jordans that Jay Z was wearing to the Nets game to feel better but the only thing that changes is my shoes. Ain't that the blues.

In all reality, it's probably really fun to open up the packaging. Maybe it's fun to get an outfit together. Certainly people will compliment the shoes. Then they sit there. Fucking patent leather. You watch Earthlings. You resent the shoes. So, they sit and they sit. Finally, they get given away to Goodwill and there is peace and serenity. Until Pharrell comes out with a new canvas shoe that catches the eye.... There is no branding, no leather, etc..... I actually still wear these shoes even though I don't want to support megacorp Adidas. They are just shoes now that I will wear until I wear them out.

this is a terrible assumption.


Hey man, I realize you have a fancy tech job in California and live that life. I assume you couldn't show up to work in paint stained cut off sweatshorts and a Gojira t-shirt and sandals. I realize the women there look at what kind of car you drive, what kind of watch you have and where you stay before considering the contents of your character. I mean a certain class of women does that anywhere on earth but I found it really bad in California specifically. That is just the competition you are in. I don't hate you I hate the system. These comfortable niches you talk about are late stage capitalism and marketing. What if we all wore recycled plastic hiking gear and biked to work and had showers in the bathrooms and wore practical garmin watches from intern to CEO? Spend the extra money and time on some viable charity. You are a bourgeois mannequin with a spiritual malady. Your soul would like to express itself in ways other than buying expensive watches and playing poker.

Being judgmental about it? I am just challenging your way of life. I am challenging TOP DOWN COOL and thinking and writing about the spiritual malady that is prevalent in many peoples' lives these days. You're getting raped by marketing bro. But, the thing is I don't have any suggestions. If you are "winning" in that life the best play may not to be "woke" but rather continue "winning." It takes a strong character to rise above and be larger than that superficial life. It's a complete paradigm shift that was not easy for me but easier because I didn't win in that life. I lost big time. I got my ass kicked. You still have to show up to work in smart business casual and you have to show up to the lounge in smart business casual and you can't be seen in the same clothes so you need A LOT of smart business casual. If you have the shirt and the pants you need the belt and the shoes. Charcoal calls for black belt and black shoes. Navy calls for brown belt and brown shoes or maybe red belt and red shoes if you want to get risque. So, you have all these shirts and all these pants and all these leather animal products. You need that as a baseline. A watch really brings that uniform up a notch doesn't it? Now, what watch represents my soul? What watch makes me bulletproof, gives me super powers? LOL, I just thought of the business card scene from American Psycho:


RiKD    United States. Jan 14 2020 21:55. Posts 8520

It's actually a real problem because you have to keep fighting. You have to keep consuming. The spiritual malady doesn't go away. You have to be up on what GQ is saying, what Kanye West is wearing, what Virgil Abloh is doing. I will say this. It feels great to go into the local Thai place where I know everyone in my cutoff paint stained sweatshorts and Gojira t-shirt and sandals or the diner or the Korean spot or the coffee place or the AA meeting or wherever. It feels good to give to charities I researched and have faith in. I am lacking in giving my time but that is trickier with my work schedule.

The bourgeois mannequins can say I'm wasting a life or that I am pathetic. It doesn't feel that way. I can do everything that is actually important to human sanity and joy. I can't even really comment on what I think about the bourgeois mannequin life because I can't live it. All I know is I wasn't happy in it. I was happy with friends. I was happy flirting and picking up. I was really doing a lot of the same things. Waking up with some coffee and LP. Going for a walk in nature. Hanging out with friends. Reading good books. I can't get drunk and go to bars and flirt and pick up but I can paint. I can still flirt and date. I don't know. I don't hate you Into Infinity I hate the game. I think people of any niche would do better to abandon materialism and pick up connections, nature, Jesus Christ, Buddha, et al.

There was a guy on 2p2 that was kind of a hero. His name was Henry17. He posted a lot on the student life forum. Basically, spent a lot of time helping people get women. He was like 37 when he made most of his posts. I have to say they helped me a lot. I still have some of the remnants of that person. The Hugo Boss pants and shirts. The John Varvatos shoes. The belts from Nordstroms. I had to tweak it a little bit as I was working in steel mills in Northwest Indiana. If I was with my friends in Chicago for certain events I could be classic Henry17 clone. If I was in bars in Northwest Indiana I would put my own spin on it. Typically, Ralph Lauren Denim and Red Wing boots. But, actually, either worked in either setting. So that's really who I am arguing against: Henry17. You see the Henry17 clone is off the table. The question is that the lacked? At one point I thought that to be true. Or, someone like Drake. Does he really have it all? I mean I have so close to zero it might as well be zero chance to position myself in a position that Drake has but what are his margins of peace, joy, love, grace, et al? I am still just trying to figure it all out for myself. How to maximize my margins of peace, joy, love, grace, et al.

The bourgeois mannequin will be mocked. I think there is maybe a chance of being cooler than that. On one of Jimmie Hendrix's tracks he says, "silly businessman you can't dress like me." And, they can't. Hendrix is cooler than the bourgeois mannequin. I used to be scared to shop at Goodwill or wear $12 hoodies. I don't have to nor do I want to dress like Hendricks or Tyler Durden. But that is some TOP DOWN COOL that seems more inspiring than shackling. It's like in each niche you have to be some symbol that represents the elite part of that niche. A watch is an easy way to signal that. We still live in a society that shit like that matters. Well, I am attempting to be in social spheres where that shit doesn't matter. I am attempting to date women that don't care about that stuff. We will break apart capitalism and marketing. Or at least be aware of what is really going on and do our best to avoid it.

I agree with this fwiw.

People on a poker forum should know better than to use absolutes, e.g. "knowing this shows you care about that", which is why I qualified my comment with 'probably' and 'some correlation'.

To your point though, there's a difference between recognizing words and inserting them into a conversation ad hoc (doing the latter in this case obviously makes it significantly more likely someone cares/has cared about fashion stuff imo).

Most of his advice was actually really simple. That was just one piece. It's pretty straightforward buy the most expensive pants and shirts and belts and shoes that you can afford. If you can't afford designer than figure out how to improve your position in life. A smartly dressed man in nice dress pants, dress shirt, and shoes is an archetype that a large number of women find attractive. It also has the benefit of being appropriately dressed for any venue change.

Some other points:

- Read Kant and never lie
- Always pay for women (because getting ready for a night out is much more expensive for women)

Actually, some guy compiled a bunch of his posts into a guide:

Henry17 Guide

I don't exactly know what his motives were. He never tried to sell anything. I think it was partly because he despised the PUA community and was on a mission to discredit it as well as to just help people. He was pretty secretive with his personal life but did meet up with 2p2ers and apparently was a real person.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. It actually works out pretty well and reasoning is sound. It's not some white knight thing it's based in fairness. My haircut costs me $25. Most women spend upwards of $200 on a hair appointment. That right there is going to make it fair to pay for dinner or drinks.

It's probably relatively well known on here that I've fucked around with prostitutes in my past but that idea repulses me today. I had a friend recently who would always bring up going to the strip club and getting a blow job and that is such a toxic environment and no where for me to be. If I was drinking and doing drugs I could see myself back there in a second though. I don't know where my malady takes me these days. Probably, non-dairy ice cream city but I've been doing pretty well with just getting in a daily bread and not stress overeating. That's kind of where I am flexin' these days. On most days the spiritual malady isn't a thing. That is my message. There isn't a void in my soul and that may be the most important thing for me ever.

man if a girl is getting a $200 haircut she is paying for that herself and not getting fucking subsidized from me for it.

Makeup would easily be the difference too. A skincare regimen. Barre or pilates isn't cheap. While GQ would have me consuming all of these things I do not and can surely cover a few cocktails or even a $30 salad (Where are you going to eat Santafairy?)

Overall Henry17 Advice Post:

"It would basically be a lifestyle makeover. The only way to actually be successful with women is to become the type of guy that girls want to be with. Ideally you'd want to strive for excellence in every thing but that is an impossible or at least uncompletable task so you need to focus first on the stuff that matters most. To do that you need to study your target demographic and what matters to them.

In reality it would be possible to just say that maximizing traditional ideas of physical attractiveness, status, wealth, power, success, humor, leading a fun and interesting life, and education are what most guys will realize matter but to just give a list is being lazy and less accurate than actually looking at the situation. If someone starts off cutting corners right off the bat then they are too lazy to do what it takes to actually change their lifestyle.

A second point is that while you should focus on excelling at the stuff that matters most you should also try to excel at other stuff. The more things you do the more cards you have to play. This is time intensive but people waste so much time doing useless things like watching TV, playing video games, etc. Unless the demographic you want to master cares about your WoW status video games have to go.

Beyond the lifestyle change I see four other things that matter.

1.) Be discrete. I can't stress this enough. Never talk about who you have had sex with.

2.) Go out a lot. Start with one or two venues and then expand. Always treat the staff right and if possible try to get past the server - patron relationship and actually become friends with them.

3.) Figure out if you are actually any good at sex. Most guys are not. Fix that.

4.) Don't become all gaga / teenager in love over girls. This should come naturally from developing the proper lifestyle. There are plenty of hot girls but a guy who has excelled at life is considerably less common. This is like anything else -- the person who has scarcity on their side has the bargaining power. This doesn't mean be disrespectful or an ass to girls just that you shouldn't get all fixated on girls you hardly know. It is like graduating top of your class from Yale -- you shouldn't be belligerent to recruiters but at the same time you know they need you more than you need them.

I left #4 for last because it segues into my piece on confidence. Everyone knows that confidence is important. The idea that anyone can become confident by reading a book or studying anything is retarded. Confidence is the result of past achievement and who you are. If you do the lifestyle stuff properly then confidence will just be a natural byproduct of being better."

It's hard to see it any other way except for that dating is competition. I think Henry17's post above is pretty spot on. It certainly helped me at the time. I can never get that back though. I can never be a young professional again in this life. Nor do I want that. I have to change the demographic. Bad ass leftist chicks. There probably aren't many out there in this town but I'm sure they exist.

"Status, wealth, power, success," being on top of a hierarchy.... there have got to be other ways. I've been beaten down so bad I am afraid of all of those things. I resent those things. I want to end those things.

I also resent this idea of being better. There is certainly some truth to it. I have felt that before. But it's a slippery slope when we start talking about status, wealth, power, success, hierarchies and people being better than other people. Like what the fuck?

Henry17 put some good posts together but fuck him. He's an elitist douche. I mean following his guidelines works. Especially for 20 somethings. But, I'm going ROGUE MOTHER FUCKERS!!!!! I'm going to start my own guide. How to help end income inequality. How to date baaaddd leftist chicks.

"Marijuana" by Chrome Sparks just came up in the radio. That will be my downfall. That's when I give in and give up. That's when I become high and apathetic. That's what they want us to be. High and apathetic. We've got entire towns suffering turning to opioids. Those are my white brothers and sisters. We need to unite everyone. It's about INCOME INEQUALITY.

She's wearing a Tesla choker.... Really?

She quietly got rid of her "anti-imperialist" rhetoric on twitter.

Karl Marx was once the photo on her instagram.

Really REALLY bad look.

I would hope that if I ever see a windfall that I wouldn't quietly turn into a gross creature.

I'm glad I never went past liking her album "Visions." I never looked deeper or felt a connection to her or her activism to be disappointed.

When I say baaadddd leftist chick I'm not totally considering looks. Je ne sais quoi. Man, I don't know. I'm just not ready for sleep yet. In my last therapist appointment she said I am on the edge so close to all these things she just wants to effin kick me off the edge of the cliff if she could. I think with Tinder just no fucks have to be given. It's a fucking cesspool but I have a new strategy of just not giving a fuck about anything. I matched with a "Leftist" tonight. But, I matched with so many other women that who cares right? But, this is the cycle of Tinder. Plenty of matches not many dates. Even though I self-sabotage myself. I have a Xanax prescription for going on dates. I'm fucked up. My therapist did say I exude love. She wanted to say something more scientific but that's how she framed it. That's actually a major compliment. That's really one of my core goals.

Who am I kidding I would totally date Grimes. She would actually be more of a leftist and not this abomination that she has become. And yeah of course it helps being Elon Musk in the current state of dating in the Western world.

I don't know if I have any ideas. I need to apply to jobs, go on dates, hang out with friends. My therapist says I need to chase these things. I don't know if it's ever good to chase but maybe it is in some cases. She at least acknowledged that it needs to be an action verb.

In fact, I want to try a Xanax right now. I was prescribed to take one to see how I respond. Although, I hope to be sleeping soon so that seems like kind of a waste. I read on the internet that it takes about an hour to kick in and lasts about 5 hours. That is perfect for a date. I don't want to be some dizzy, drowsy, uncoordinated goober though. Does anyone on here have experience with Xanax?

If I'm using it I'm going to post about it.

I do go outside. It's not like I can hang out in bars consuming until parties are lubricated and we go on "Next" type dating show situations. All I really have is AA meetings. There are women I'm kind of keeping tabs on and playing very slow tit for tat games. For me I think the play has to be very conservative because AA is where I eat and I don't want to shit there. I kind of like my rotation of meetings and don't want to put that at risk. Not that I'm going to do anything to jeopardize that but having a bad date with someone and then having to see them twice a week is kind of awkward. I suppose we can be adults and carry on I have always just been really conservative with women at work and women in AA. I don't get out much besides that so that's where the online dating comes in.

I don't go outside much besides AA. I'm not going to go to a park and start "day gaming." I'm not going to "day game" anywhere. I'm likely going to a show this Monday but I will be there for the music and with my friends. I'll be drinking a cranberry and club soda or a CBD water. If a drunk woman starts flirting with me I will flirt back but it's a different kind of vibe to being out in a place to pick up or meet women high or drunk (even if you are there with friends).

Where do you suggest that I go?

Online dating is suboptimal but at my age and my lack of drinking it seems to be a necessary evil.


RiKD    United States. Jan 24 2020 07:21. Posts 8520

I took a Xanax tonight. My Doctor told me to try one in a controlled environment. I don't really feel any different. Many people in my life who are honest tell me that I am stagnant and I have to start facing my fears and going through them. So, trying some Xanax was one of them. I have to trial it before I go on a date. I don't know if I will have a panic attack on a date I just have a fear of that happening.

So many beautiful women on Tinder but I still have to stick to my guns of not giving a fuck no matter what. It's a crack app. People fly through it when they are bored. Just fly through on a whim. Whimsical fairies all coked up. Such a weird space.

This feels like some Xanny music:



I love all of ya'll.

Ya know that I pray for the sick and the suffering every day? Why do I do that? I don't know I just started doing it and have kept with it. I never ever thought that I would pray and now I pray every day. It like sets the tone for the day. Sets the intention. It alleviates anxiety somehow. I really don't know. I'm going to keep doing it though. It doesn't make sense at all. When people say "Oh, we'll keep you in our thoughts and prayers" I'm like get the fuck out of here but now here I am praying. When Nancy Pelosi talks about prayer I want to strangle her. Seatbelt. Rear Naked Strangle to Nancy Pelosi. I don't want to kill her. I just want her out cold so she is no longer talking. I don't know whose worse. Trump, Pence, or Pelosi. Part of me thinks if I can get my confidence back in public speaking I have a run in politics in me but FUCK THAT! I have to be able to find better ways to help people surely. That's all I want to do. Is help people. Alleviate suffering. That's all I've ever wanted to do since getting some grips on this sobriety thing. It's the only valid answer. Yet, I toil away most days at some whatever job controlled by the enemy. Yes, the billionaires are the enemy. They didn't get their billions by being these great humans they fucking took their billions with manipulation and slipperiness or what some people call being clever. IT'S NOT JSUT FUCKIGN BEING CLEVER!!!!!111 When are we going to wise up and rise up???? Why don't I locate the fucking local IWW???? Why don't I do fucking anything???? But, take a xanax and listen to music. It's actually quite pleasant but there isn't much of a head change. Just a sort of nice calmness and relaxation. And I'm still getting fired up about greedy piece of shit billionaires and fucking megacorporations. They don't care about fucking anybody. fuck!

Yes! Fucking Vangelis on the radio!

I need to get a life. But what's a nigga going to do at 1:17 in the AM?




RiKD    United States. Jan 25 2020 05:36. Posts 8520

I think if Xanax gave me more of a head change and wasn't so fucking terrible it would really be my speed. Maybe I just have to take more. I think smoking weed with a large dose of Xanax would be the best ever. The problem being that Xanax is so very addictive and there is bad withdrawal associated with it. Alcohol would go well with it too if it didn't cause shallow breathing and death. Maybe that's how I'll kill myself. I've had the shallow breathing before from absurd amounts of alcohol where I thought I might die. That actually wasn't fun. I was just like "whelp, I'm too drunk to really do anything right now but pass out.... I hope I don't die." I'm on the cusp of too many potentially great things to want to kill myself. There is hope. Which is why in reality I'll just take Xanax for what my Doctor prescribed it for. Going on dates and we will see what happens. But, man, if shit goes sour I'm finding some real good weed and the right amount of Xanax and getting fucking blazar'd. Well, actually, probably not even then but I might try it out if it were that or killing myself. I just don't want to mess around with any withdrawal scenarios. Those are the worst.
