#Trump famously "doesn't drink."

Nor should anyone else, thinks Two Dolls Donny, as his tariffs force U.S. distilleries to file for bankruptcy (both Chapter 11 and Chapter 7)...

Several U.S. whiskey distilleries are filing for bankruptcy, with industry-giant Jim Beam pausing production. What's happening to America's bourbon industry?

Es nervt selbst wenn man nur zeitweise auf Alkohol verzichtet. #dryjanuary #dryaugust

Weโ€™ll #DryAugust started pretty good and then I kinda lost the strandโ€ฆ.some social occasions and general triggering things threw me. But Iโ€™m gonna keep trying. Weekends are rough but I think a no booze Sun-Thurs is getting established.

Edit: I forgot to attach the graph because Iโ€™m over the line in the graph

I havenโ€™t been posting updates the past few days but my #DryAugust is still going, and yesterday finished Day 8 (made it beyond a week!). Iโ€™ve not been to good about establishing good habits the past few days because of various shit shows that have eaten up all my time. But I think Iโ€™ve managed to respond a little more adaptively than usual.

Day 4/31 #DryAugust done

Dealt with a lot of stupid shit at work today, and spend a sizable part of the night doing pro bono editing for Ms. FoC๐Ÿ˜ฉ

Did my habit-building exercise, took out garbage, and washed some linens

Saturday plans: will probably have to do final check of Ms. FoC report before getting it to translator (E to Thai).

Go to home center, prep some JPN study, and sort out my dnd game (i.e., all the shit I couldnโ€™t do during the week). Exercise. Grocery/cook.

Day 1/31 done in #DryAugust challenge.

Got coffee cold-brewing for tomorrow, and got eggs for a healthy breakfast. Baby steps for getting a good routine set.

Also cleaned the kitchen. My goal for tomorrow is to tidy my office/room. For me, a clean space is much more conducive to good behaviors. There is without doubt a strong correlation between the cleanness of my room and the likelihood of me eating salad or McDonaldโ€™s for lunch ๐Ÿฅ— ๐Ÿ”
