Do you have some kind of condition? Flying is uncomfortable but it's not typical to be in "excruciating pain"

Glad to have helped. It's a good rule of thumb and at this point it's not even conscious for me. It's just muscle memory for me that if I'm feeling any of those things I don't drink. I avoid drinking alone unless I'm doing something fun, I never drink if I'm dealing with personal shit, etc.
Basically if I don't already have something fun going on, I don't drink. My mindset is that drinking should complement something fun that's already happening, not that it should be a source of fun on its own.
gaming community has never historically been filled with so many pervy people
Lmao. You clearly don't remember ye olde days when gaming companies would just openly advertise using misogyny because they believed it would appeal to their target demographic. There was a time when a game having a woman protagonist would be considered shocking, and all women characters in games wore bikinis.
The games industry hasn't gotten more gross and pervy. It's gotten significantly less so. It's just that the industry as a whole has also grown massively. So what used to be like 40% of the population of gamers a few decades ago is now only like 5%, but the actual quantity of people is bigger. Again, you're condemning an entire medium for the behaviour of a relatively small number of creators and consumers. I've personally never in my life met someone who actually plays those awful anime gatcha games like Genshin Impact, and yet virtually everyone I know plays video games to some extent.
that kind of stuff should never be mainstream because mainstream games are supposed to appeal to an audience of all ages
Spare me the puritanical bullshit. The notion that every game should appeal to all ages is monumentally stupid. Go back to the dark ages when people complained about violence in games causing school shootings.
I love Firefly, but I'd hardly call it wholesome
Community can have some really great writing (dips in season 3, but recovers in 4).
Is this an "arrays start at 0" joke? The 4th season is the one where Dan Harmon was booted off and the quality dipped significantly. It can safely be skipped even if it's your first watch.
All you need to know is that they wrote out Pierce partway through the season, Abed gets a gf (but she's only in like 1 or 2 episodes of season 5), and the gang all graduate from their programs and go on to get some kind of job. Everything else is explained fairly quickly in the 5th season.
The writers basically did everything in their power to erase the mess that the 4th season was from existence. The characters refer to it as the school year where there was a gas leak in the whole school and that's why everyone acts weird and doesn't remember anything.
If you're just looking for something wholesome and entertaining, Schitt's Creek is probably a good one.
I've heard Ted Lasso and Kim's Convenience have similar wholesome vibes, but haven't watched either.
I played TPS. The low gravity was an awful mechanic and the humour writing was extremely unfunny. I never finished it.
I didn't bother playing the 3rd game because I heard the writing hadn't improved much.
But again, none of this matters. You don't need to play every game in a franchise to be a fan of the series. That's just gatekeeping.
When I started at university, I hadn't drank much yet in high school. The university I went to was technically a religious institution but it was super low-key, basically a normal college, just that it had a chapel and some funding from the church of England.
Anyway, during the opening week of school, the chaplain gave a short, relatively nonreligious speech to the students. He mentioned at one point an acronym: SALT - Sad Angry Lonely Tired. If you feel like you are any of those things you probably shouldn't drink. And I really liked that acronym so I have mostly adhered to it ever since. I think it's a good rule of thumb to avoid the worst aspects of alcohol use. So I personally never drink if I'm feeling depressed. Even if I think it would make me feel better, I simply don't allow myself to do it.
That's some gatekeeping bullshit. I'm a huge fan of several games in the series (1, 2, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, and Tales From the Borderlands). You can't tell me I'm not a "true" fan just because I didn't like every game with a Borderlands logo on it. That's akin to saying someone isn't a true Zelda fan if they don't love the Zelda CDI games
Mention this next time you see a doctor. Some discomfort on a flight is normal, but excruciating pain indicates a potential medical problem
