Only thing keeping me on brave is the native ad-blocking. But I'll definitely give this a shot.

What's a cool new addiction I can start to get away from alcohol?

Something that provides a similar euphoria and has entirely different health consequences. I need to set different organs on fire.

Accepting any answers (e.g. substances, lifestyles, hobbies, games, sexual role-play, collecting funk-o pops, ruling entire nations IRL - be as creative or non-creative as you want)

It is so patently oligarchic. Sucks that it seems like the election winners will be denied power ultimately but moments like this are a rare, great example of when participation in bourgeoise politics is a good tactic; this will make the French painfully aware of how farcical and hollow their flavor of "democracy" is and will radicalize any prole who is even partially paying attention.

Seems like very short-term thinking on Macron's part - but given the current geopolitical stage we're existing within he may realize that the mask is going to fall off regardless, there are precious few rationales to keep masquerading as an acolyte of democracy.

Would love to hear what the political climate is like in-person from a French comrade.

happy for you

yes, the golden age of "dating apps" is long over. They are monetized to hell and back now. Most of the profiles are bots or scammers. The "real" ones are typically not great people. I'm not sure what your disability entails, but public spaces are where you will find genuine people.

If you absolutely insist on using dating apps, try Hinge.

Hey comrade-

Just seeing this now, sorry - life gets fast.

Still willing to talk about anything that might help you orient yourself for employment, etc.

If you can hit me with a quick (op-sec friendly, use DM) bio about yourself and your experience level along with some pointed questions about what you are struggling with now I will respond with advice on how to proceed.

I have not contemplated how vegan friendly they are, tbh. Sorry for the oversight. From my experience I'm confident that a vegetarian would be alright; for full veganism I'd encourage you to reach out to their contact #.

It's not utopia but it is uniquely different from selling individual labor-power on a market.

We can talk about whatever you want. I specialize in IT but I can talk compsci a bit; I was going down that road for a minute - would love to save you some misery where I can.

It's relative to you, I'm afraid. I felt like I "missed the boat" when I enrolled at 30, but I will tell you straight that there were people from 20-60 enrolling in the program.

It's just due to the seniority aspect that I mention "the younger the better".

But, if you need work and are willing to do it - no matter the age, I'd enroll.
