As a casual drinker, I so much appreciate more people refusing alcohol (slrpnk.net)

I've always hated how alcohol commercials play up like a cool beer is the best thing in the world, or a glass of whiskey is what will put hair on your chest. It's a disgusting narrative that ruins people's lives.

On social media, there's a huge variety of it. People posting how they were sober on NYE. Folks sharing before/after as they've gone cold turkey. I see people share tips of what type of mocktails to get at bars, and alternatives to having a fun night over getting drunk.

I appreciate that.

And this is not bashing alcohol. Moderation in everything.

One per hour and not more than 3 is a very easy rule for staying below 0.08. Two drinks in an hour and nothing more will usually still keep you below the limit tbh. It really is that third and fourth drink which tilt it.
