@feld @BinroHeretic @fcktheworld587 @SrRochardBunson holy cow, thank you for saying this. how to raise the question "hey, can we stop doing this thing? i don't feel like doing this thing anymore" among people who seem unable to perceive at all that A) drinking too much is a thing they do, B) it is possible not to want to do it, or C) it is possible to stop it. Is it like this everywhere or does the midwest / rust belt have an invisibility spell cast on alcoholism?
