news
Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.
If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.
Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.
Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.
Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.
Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.

That changes when you drink it frequently, unless you drink too much and get really hungover in which case it'll be the opposite
I’ve written about this before, but it’s a long story of experimentation so short story: I don’t really get drunk or hungover. So there’s no real source for me to form positive associations with the taste of alcohol.
The first time I drank I basically went on a bender with my cousin trying all the different kinds of hard liquor we could find. Gin is probably my favorite (the only ones whose flavor notes seem to actually go with the taste of alcohol), but I’d prefer water or juice over all of them. Anyway in the morning my cousin threw up, I didn’t.
I’ve been out to drink a few times since, and while the CNS depressant effects like breathing and heart rate show up. I don’t feel more relaxed or happy or buzzed or more social or brave/foolhhardy. I mostly just feel a headache, maybe dizziness if I drink a lot, and the thought of “why did I pay for a drink that tastes bad when I could’ve bought a cheaper one that actually tastes good?”
