  • CW Alcoholism, dumping a friend.

    I once had to dump a very good friend because of their ongoing alcoholism and lack of any willingness to deal with it or accept help. It was heartbreaking but I just cant have people around me who will randomly just lose it and drink themselves in a coma and call me a day later to lie about it. They accused me of dumping them for being not being as successful as I am. I told them its okay to think that and if they ever wanted to deal with their alcoholism i would join them at any meeting but they said “i called AA and thet said i have no problem”.



  • I think one core issue could be that buerocratism reigns unchecked in the western empire for decades and that this leads to massive mistakes, cruelty and indecisiveness.

    It is what happens if someone is de facto leader without mandate and uses thinly veiled violence to keep others from challenging them. Its the same that happens in any “horizontal” structure i have ever been in. The hierarchy is there, it is just covert and the mechanics holding it in place are vile.

    This is why every group needs to determine a leader who is also able to be voted out.

    To be clear I agree with you, I’m just thinking out loud. Feel free to correct me.
