Beautifully said GnarGnar and I'm incredibly sorry about your mother, but I'm glad you're with us and stuck with it. Like you said, sobriety really is a gift, in so many ways, including the ability to process what's happening around you and to you in a healthy way. I wish you continued success friend.

Not going to lie, now that it’s summer here and warm, there’s been some moments where I’ve had “ah fuck, what if I just went on a bender at the beach this weekend and got back to sobriety next week” thoughts/impulses, thankfully I’m not acting on them and it’s not been overwhelming, but it’s funny because a week ago I posted in here about booze being so out of my mind.

Stay strong slappers.

I have had a similar experience the past week or so. I recently moved and for lack of a better explanation I have family around, and more family will be moving here, but this past weekend I was truly alone for the first time in a minute (my sister went out of town for memorial day) and I had that exact same thought. "Who's gonna know?" Type beat. I didn't drink because like you it's ultimately not really on my mind and I played that tape forward. I know what will happen. But damn, it's crazy how this shit will just sneak up on you if you let it. Unfortunately, I am not necessarily in the most "sober friendly" part of the US, that's as specific as I'll get, but I know there's likeminded folks here and I'll find em eventually. It's a reminder of how important a support system is, including all y'all!

Who could've predicted that Rowley would go from sound vegan geezer to redneck gun kook while Muska went from homeless homophobe streetrat to wholesome farm influencer. Skateboarding is a beautiful thing.

Those chairs look great, well done restoring them. I have such a soft spot for them. I guess childhood nostalgia. I should really get a couple.

Just started nerding out on it since we got the house built. Nychair rocker from Japan was our latest purchase super comfy! Got a lift foot rest to go with it too.

@Gray Imp Sausage Metal is it worth it? Been eyeing these for a bit and want a lounge chair. Really want the Eames group lounger but have a hard time finding good examples for a reasonable price.

Been on the lookout for an Eames LCW/LCM but they never seem to come up around my way which seems odd.

I'm as surprised as anyone Keelan is the next guest but you guys a fried if you think cephas and don don't know about the money not being enough, the allegations and the honey fiasco. this is going to make for some good pod.

also pretty sure Keelan was never found guilty along side baby scumbag and that burgs dude. He definitely gave off some strange energy though. hopefully the bunt dudes ask some hard questions and don't just accept some vague Nyjah style explanation

Also incoming thread from that german guilt dude trying to cancel the bunt. Gunna be up in Vans DM's asking for accountability
