No idea

We celebrate single moms, divorced women, gays/lesbians, and obesity. We might as fucking well celebrate alcoholism too.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Lol, society doesn't look down on alcoholics. Society looks down on degenerate alcoholics.

kinda true...people like my exes friend's husband...dude was over small commercial crews putting in the water pipes under roads. drank all day including while driving and popping pills while in heavy machinery/in mud holes up to his knees at work. 😂 had lots of degen stories about the dudes on the crew.

I think it’s the opposite

Alcohol is glamorized when in reality it’s the worst drug there is

Being a high performing alcoholic imo is looked at positively in society
