Hate: Postbit disabled the ability to adjust currency. We couldn't figure it out what it was doing. So to get back functionality I had to disable it.

Does it make me a terrible person to find some sort of satisfaction in seeing people who used to be in the drug game, who contributed to my mother's own habits and eventual death, finally having those years of snorting and smoking shit catch up to them? Many are family members, whose health has significantly declined more than average, quite possibly because of all that drug use. One is in the hospital now, pretty much dead. We weren't close. I babysat his daughter a few times, but he and his wife (blood 2nd cousin) used to party super hard with some other cousins and my mother back in her druggie days. A few of those people (including my mom) are gone now, either from drugs directly or from the effects of doing them for so long, or are suffering from some pretty shitty health complications from them. I don't have much sympathy. I really don't. Weed is one thing, and II cannot really condemn people for smoking it, as I am/was a pothead myself back in my teenage/early 20's, but II will never touch any of the other crap and that's thanks to their examples. My brother and I lost a lot back then because of their shitty decisions. It was selfish, dangerous and just altogether a terrible thing. Yeah, might be fun for a little bit for them, but drugs affect more than just you. They especially affect your kids. Don't fool yourself and say "oh, I got my shit together, my kids are taken care of, blah blah blah." Naw. Until those kids are 18, don't touch that shit. You have a responsibility first and foremost to those children. You have a responsibility for your health. It's not fun losing a parent way before their time because of their shitty decision to get high. It's not fun losing your home because they couldn't prioritize their bills before their habits. It's embarrassing as hell to have an important utility shut off every other fucking week because your bill money went up your nose or into a vein.

So no, although I feel it is a terrible situation to go through, I cannot and will not have sympathy for these people. You made your decision, you knew the risks, yet you still did them, and now you and your family are suffering because of it. Fuck drugs.

Sorry this got a bit deeper than I intended, but I do hope someone takes something from it and don't do to themselves or their children what me, my brother and my little cousins went through.
