The Place to Go for Emotional Support
Time

Yes my body is in good shape but the problem is I was left with sky high blood pressure because alcohol shrivels your blood vessels. I am told that pot helps relax them and lower bp so there’s actually a decent chance that if I hadn’t also been smoking pot on the regular I may have died. My blood pressure is almost normal now but I’m still on medicine for it so I don’t know how long I’ll have to be on it.

And thank you guys. I haven’t had a drink in over a month and it’s hard, I used to never go more than a few hours without one.

The Place to Go for Emotional Support
Time

I really want a drink. Truthfully the only reason I haven’t had one is because I’m scared of how it would react to my blood pressure medicine… That I had to be put on because of my years of heavy alcohol abuse.

I never said I was smart about taking care of myself. Lol

I don’t even know why I want it. I don’t physically crave it anymore. Pot gives me all the benefits it did minus any of the side effects and I’ve lost 20 pounds just in the past five weeks since quitting. (Not that I particularly needed to but it’s still nice nonetheless). I don’t know why I want it, I just feel like I need something heavier. I feel like I’m missing part of myself, like drinking was part of my identity. I have a mad self destructive streak and pot just doesn’t cut it I guess, despite having all the positive effects I guess pot just isn’t destructive enough to satisfy me. Which is insane. Maybe I’ll get over it. Maybe I won’t. Feels like I’m dying anyway and events in my personal life have a huge part to play in that and if I had my life of 3 months ago back but with my sobriety I would be on top of the world. This has become very rambly and I honestly don’t even remember what all I’ve said and I don’t feel like reading it back. I haven’t drank or anything I’ve just become so disconnected from everything lately I feel like I’m a million miles away from everything and everybody.

All I know is that Shape of Water looks weird as fuck just based on the clip or two I saw in the brief moments I looked up during the Oscars. The fish man looked ridiculous, not something that should inhabit a serious film.

Doesn’t it resemble Abe Sapien from the Hellboy movies, also played by the same actor?

I decided against seeing it when I heard a gastronomic spoiler.

In any case, want to bet Universal gets that perpetually delayed Creature From The Black Lagoon remake into first gear now?

I once bought a bottle of rubbing alcohol that said “ingesting will cause serious gastronomical disturbances”. Was it related to that? Asking because these are the only two times I’ve ever heard that word.

STAR WARS: EP IV 2004 <strong>REVISITED</strong> ADYWAN *<em>1080p HD VERSION NOW IN PRODUCTION</em>
Time

My biggest hope for the audio is that adywan use the 1997 sound mix over the 2004 as the base in contrast to the first revisited. The 2004 for esb is fine but God is anh butchered. Yes he fixed a few jarring issues but the sound is flawed at its base. The dialogue sounds like every other line is from a different source. It’s overall sound is very brittle and dull. The only thing it has over the 1997 mix is it’s a bit more powerful sounding and it has a better lfe. But perhaps the 97 mix with the 2004 lfe could be used? And yes I know ady did numerous fixes and remixes to the sound but it still clearly resembles the dreadful 2004 mix complete with inconsistent dialogue quality.
