I had some friends over for a games night this weekend and I remembered that I had a pint of Guinness in the fridge. However, I didn't want to just drink it out of the can, and I didn't have a pint glass for the G-split experience. So, I poured the beer into a coupe glass and felt SO fancy drinking it. Bonus points for it looking like a generous espresso martini. Life's too short to drink out of boring cups.

I feel like Iโm the last person to know about this but the baby Guinness shot is sooo fun and tasty and it looks like a baby Guinness ๐ฅบ itโs kahula and baileys (or alternative coffee and cream liqueurs). Drank many last night and it was a good time.

I discovered this the weekend before last. This is not a wretched glass of piss and some sad little peanuts.
This is truly exquisite indulgence and delight.

Was at a get-together last night. played beer pong all beer, no water. compulsive hygiene instinct maxed out. but damn, nothing tastes as pretty as pre-covid nostalgia

I'm writing an essay and I've come up with three antidotes to overconsumption.
1. Consume critically. I don't care how many books you read last year - how does your favourite author use literary devices to tell their story? How does your favourite film director create a mood? Figure this out.
2. Create anything. And I really mean anything. Bake a cake, write an essay, knit a scarf. This is probably the best antidote to overconsumption because it preoccupies you, but it also helps develop some respect for what it takes to do the things that you consume.
3. Connect with people. It doesn't need to be that deep. DM your favourite content creator that you like their stuff. Comment on people's PI.FYI recs. If you enjoy consuming another person's content, letting them know is just a nice thing to do (and helps avoid parasocial relationships).

Last Monday I took a day off work (paid!) to go to the cinema with my friend and watch three films all in one go - A Complete Unknown, Babygirl and Nosferatu. We went out for coffees and dinner between films, but it was fun to make an outing of it while catching up on the newest films. Try and space out the screenings strategically so you donโt end up spending 12 hours out and about like we did.

I ainโt ordering pizza delivery in this economy. Iโve got a go-to pizza dough recipe that never fails, it takes 1.5 hours to make including dough-rise time, and at this point I prefer it to most restaurant pizzas.
