  1. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜’𝗺 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴: "𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗧𝘆𝗰𝗼𝗼𝗻" 𝗯𝘆 𝗙. 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝘁𝘁 𝗙𝗶𝘁𝘇𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗱 -

    What can I say? I never got around to it! And since opinions on this novel are mixed, anyway . . . but I recently read Laing's 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘛𝘳𝘪𝘱 𝘵𝘰 𝘌𝘤𝘩𝘰 𝘚𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 , so that will add a fresh take on Fitzgerald's motives (and addictions)!

  2. RE: mastodon.social/@RonSupportsYo

    Anyone with military experience (and most people without this experience) who is watching the wars in Ukraine and Iran should understand that drones help the military win wars. Whisky Pete Hegseth decided to eliminate a drone battalion in the United States. How drunk was he when he made that stupid decision?

  3. Alcohol: No amount of drinking is healthy!

    Brad Pitt just started drinking again. The media, probably sponsored by the alcohol industry, is promoting the idea that resuming drinking alcohol might not be so bad.

    This is insidious #propaganda !

    If you are an #alcoholic , stay strong! Do NOT drink.
    I am proud of you for staying sober.

    I was not an alcoholic, and didn’t drink much. I had a drink, and then quit drinking, on a whim, 3 years ago. Now I feel no urge to drink. As a surprising side-effect, my thinking has improved, a lot! I want to stay smart.

  10. A quotation from Jean Kerr

    SYDNEY: A lot of writers drink. Some drink before they write and some drink after they write. The ones that concern me are the ones who drink instead of writing. Even though a number of people have tried, no on has yet found a way to drink for a living.

    Jean Kerr (1922-2003) American author and playwright [b. Bridget Jean Collins]
    Poor Richard, Act 1 (1965)

    Ballad of a Sober Man: An ER D...

  12. I'm #CurrentlyReading "Thirst: Twelve Drinks That Changed My Life" by John Robins. It really is excellent. Recommended if you enjoy musings on the nature of addiction, the hubris of youth, the complexity of mental (ill)health, or just the struggle of being a slightly awkward middle-aged man.
