  • With a reaction like that I suspect there was some other indicators as well.

    I know I have a bit of an addictive personality, I actively refuse gambling since I know I can get caught up in it.

    I did open the package up, I wanted to see the mythical pills, but I felt uncomfortable with the package being unsealed and wanted a bigger barrier to have to pass through if I wanted the pills. So I resealed the pack with tape and have had no issues since.

    As for right now, they are only for when I am in so much pain that I can’t do anything useful.

    None in my family has ever asked about it other than to check up on me when I first got it, I live alone so it is a valid concern.

    I got it back in 2020/2021 and it remains resealed and unused.





  • Sorry, but yeah, some programming humor, though it seems to fit.

    Alpha - the first working versions of a software, used to verify concepts, but is often very unstable, and outright broken in places

    Beta - mostly working version, core is stable, but some features are still buggy.

    Release candidate - works well enough that it could be the release version of a software, all specified features are in place, it is polished and the team working on it is focused on testing it to make sure it is ready.

    I have heard people say that good times create weak men, and looking at how the alt right have risen and how much “alpha males” are concerned about their masculinity, I would have to say that we have had some great times.

    Also, I would never consider myself an alpha male, that is far too unstable, at best I am probably a decent release candidate, good enough to be sent to production, but needing a few patches to get a few bugs worked out.
