I didn't realize that public places for queer folk had so much alcohol involved.
And so many people want to go out drinking when you first meet up with them too
I've been sober for 5 years and it's kinda tough at times
We should normalize stocking products like Liquid Death at bars for people who don't want to drink and need a product that's so visually wild that nobody will think "oh that's literally water in a can."
I saw a comic who spoke about telling the bartender before shows to put tea in his glass instead. Even if people order a shot for him, it should just be tea. It looked enough like alcohol that no one would make a big deal about it.
It’s wild that you can’t just be like “I want tea” without it becoming a whole thing.
I've known a lot of strippers and dancers to do the same type of thing. It's a good idea.
