     @The_Icarian I'm not one to judge... I guess. Doing edibles and playing GTA all day sounds kinda fun but does not a meaningful life make? You can only do that for so long, though (?) I can definitely relate to the wife's frustration. Kinda seems like their lives are on divergent paths with one partner embracing very meaningful (if not lucrative) work and the other (mostly) hedonism... 🤷🏾 We'd all do something similar at least for a little while if we could. The question then becomes what next?

     @br00t4c read the story. This guy is a loser. I was forcibly retired early by spine injury. If playing video games and getting high day after day is all this moron can come up with he really doesn’t deserve his retirement. Besides he’s sponging off his wife’s healthcare
