Rhere is a multitude of reasons we're drinking more. none of them are pleasant.

Weed is the new alcohol.

If I get freedom, I would love to drink alcohol as a Gen Z.

Liquid Whatever.

Those are the people that were already drinking

I quit drinking last year at 33 years old next month is one year. I didn't do it because I had a drinking problem, I was drinking one pint of beer a week, if that and a six pack would last a month, if I even bought a six pack at that point.

It was just like all it did was make me angry, tired or an ass to be around and it was becoming a waste and I didn't feel like it was doing anything for me and it was a fucking waste after a while.

I did have a few thoughts of I could take or leave it when I was depressed a few times and those were the worst because that means I was considering drinking more because I felt like shit and then I was like fuck this shit.

.... Plus empty carbs and ngl, I like root beer more than alcoholic beer. I like coffee more than alcohol. I like weed more than alcohol. I Iike chocolate more than alcohol. I like biking more than alcohol. I like everything more than alcohol.

Til a new word : imbibing - means drinking a liquid or, often informally, consuming alcoholic beverages.

Their body, their choice. Sure hope that's okay with prohibitionists who want to rape their way of life on the rest of us.

Dont worry. When humanity wins the war in drugs, sober people will not be persecuted, incarcerated and forced to do drugs.

Really wish alcohol could be banned, but I guess we tried that before...

Well, let their liver receive the penance of their vote for Orange Palpatine.

Gen-X is drinking more? When did we drink less? :)

every generation pickles itself when the life gets rough. it makes it a smidge more tolerable
