Probably drinking again, socially only...of course.

Correct, yesterday before 1:45 PM when I posted the analysis in the post pictured below, the front page thread count was 30, like it’s been (for me) since visiting this forum regularly many years ago.

The front page is now 50.

Before I made this post yesterday at 1:45, I double checked the number of threads and also how old they were, the last five or so threads were three days old, like I also referenced in this post below, and there were 30 like there’s alway’s been.

The plot thickens! Lol not only did somebody change the default from 30 to 50, but they also figured out a way to bump the bottom threads and change the last post dates to make everything look current, and only one day old on the bottom (like my screenshot in the first post shows).

Like I said at about 1:40 PM yesterday I literally had just double checked not only a 30 thread front page count, but that the last few threads were in fact three days old (based on last post).

It’s a comparison metric I’ve been using for years to follow general activity of CF versus barn.

I’m doing actually quite well. As I mentioned in my wish me luck thread, my body (with some hard work) thank God has restored itself back to roughly 95%, monumental progress from September, when my panic disorder had me homebound with agoraphobia and suicidal thoughts.

Guess that goes to show you how many brain cells one has to spare. Lol sorry could not resist. And yes I will address the elephant in the room. As I also mentioned before, I have become what some call a social drinker. I do not drink alone. I do not have alcohol in the house. I do not drink daily or weekly. I do not exceed single digits. That being said, the last time I socially drank was when K and I shared a few drinks on New Year’s Eve.

I'm not a serial killer. I don't kill every day. I keep the numbers in single digits. I haven't killed since last December.

9 drinks is still a lot of drinks, Doug.

I don't see what's different or any change. But then, I don't count the slats in my window blinds, either.

That’s a dumb analogy, I know you can do better because you have in the past.

Funny you went right to the top number when I did not specify. I’ve drank three times since September. K’s company Christmas party where I was at eight from 6 o’clock till 2 AM, we went to the Buccaneers versus Cincinnati to watch the goat play, I had six beers, and then New Year’s Eve, I was probably at around eight from 10pm to 3am.

Now of course somebody looking to form a negative narrative will twist and turn and make that sound like a horrible thing, and I applaud them for taking the time and emotional energy to portray me as a failure.
