Bore da!
I’m on like page 2, playing catch-up, haha, and saw that BridgeofSighs shared a tweet of Alice’s that’s really odd and disturbing?
AE: I was interested in addiction to be honest. I'm a binger but have never been addicted. I gave up smoking cold turkey. I wanted to know what real addiction was like and it definitely helped.
1. What kind of intelligent, cautious, and mindful person is “interested in addiction”??? Tell my friend on coke that you were “interested in addiction.” Tell my friend who purges that you were “interested in addiction.” Tell my binge-eating, Xanax-guzzling ass that you were “interested in addiction.” For real, who treats addiction in their own bodies and minds like a science experiment? That’s so fucked up and dripping with privilege. Some people try things that they don’t know can hurt them. Some people try things that they know can hurt them but they’re desperate for some sort of mental/emotional liberation that they sadly believe the substance will grant them. NO wise person tries
tit that they know can hurt them because they “just wanna know what ‘real’ addiction feels like.” You shouldn’t want to know that. And if Alice weren’t in the throes of addiction now, I’d tell her this: Addiction isn’t
bleeping fun. It’s the worst thing that had ever happened to me. Go learn how to play chess or something.
2. Also, binging is indicative of addiction disorder lmao. But I stand by my statement above.^
Sorry, family, that just bothered tf out of me. She’s always spouting venom but to hop on social media and be like, “Yeah I wanted to know what ruining my life feels like” is batshit-stupid and dangerous.
Have a great day!
