Chat, check-in, and hang out

I never go to pubs cause it's cheaper to get alcohol from the liquor store and with the amount of calories in it I don't drink much anyway.

Also being around strangers when that first hit comes on feels intrusive.

Yeah, it costs a fortune and I can’t really afford it, but sitting at home alone drives me frantic.

I don’t drink anymore so there’s that too. I’m not a teetotaler so I could try it? But idk if it’s different to meet guys at bars vs dating apps? In both cases it’s kinda the same M.O. I guess it’s good for me to at least see it!

Dating apps are garbage. At least in the pub you get out the house for a bit and there's no chance of her suddenly turning out to be ten years older and ten kilos heavier than she appeared when you walked in

Haaa, I'm not doing great

When am I ever, right?

I'm in a pub, drinking my day away because I can't stand the silence.

I'm sitting at the bar. The table behind me had the turkey dinner. With Christmas crackers. They pulled them all at once.

I was off the stool and on my feet with my hand at my hip before I knew what was going on.

Then I realised and started laughing. Then it turned to crying. I'm struggling cery.much.to.type.this, but everulyone.is.studiously avoiding looking at me.

Help.

Dude. Don't drink too much. The after effects will f*ck you up. Do you have a radio/stereo in your flat so your not just in silence?

I sometimes play with the Radio Garden app, to listen to the radio stations of where I've lived before. (Or sometimes ones deep in the Amazon rainforest, just for kicks).

Good idea. I used to hate silence, I'm much better with it now but i still even sleep with the radio on.

I went to a local men's group this evening. It was a bit weird at first, but I might have a lead on a job to keep me from starving while I'm here.

That sounds good

The majority of Australia is under an extreme weather alert, except Victoria and Tasmania. Well it was when I looked this morning. The pilots have their own special weather site and one confirmed what was coming is not good.

I am doing better today. I can't wait until all this is over.

I did a lot to combat climate change, and I am annoyed that really the world hasn't done that much.

I am weary. I do better when I have a lot of space and down time.
