Of course the first thing the jews did when they arrived in the new American colonies was to set up the liquor business along with the African slave trade.

Just wanted to say great work. Quitting ethanol is not easy, especially if you've been at it for a while.
It's dumb that a potent solvent that's enjoyable to drink is a cultural norm, but it's easy to make and we've been fucking ourselves up with this stuff for a very, very long time. Monkeys get wasted off of ethanol in rotten fruit, even.
It shouldn't ever enter your body. I use ethanol as a solvent, ethanol is in hand sanitizers... because it is is the active ingredient. Not good to drink it.
I'm glad you beat your addiction, but don't be fooled into thinking that you can have a drink after a period of sobriety. Some recovering alcoholics who developed it later can beat their addiction (I did) and have some without going hog wild; but most can't because they are lifetime alcoholics. In their case, it's a genetic thing.

Glad you succeeded, great job fren. I quit drinking a few years ago after drinking every night, sometimes midday as well, and it’s the best decision I’ve made for myself. The only downside is that I’ve learned that nearly every single mainstream belief is the literal opposite of objective truth.
