My a/c technician reeks of alcohol

He's in my attic right now. Every time he comes down to tell me something, it's a 5 minute rant about how a/c's work. I am not asking for this information.

The smell is getting stronger as the day has moved forward.

He's nice though, so I do feel bad but I think I need to do something rather than pay 1000.00 for drunk work.

What should I do.

Nation somehow still fucking at ‘we need to start a conversation’ stage of combatting gendered violence

"As Australia reaches 37 women killed in just over 6 months (source: Sherele Moody), with three men and a teenage boy charged with the alleged murders of women and girls they knew, the country once again enters into the ‘we need to start a conversation’ stage of combatting gendered violence.

This as we continue the decades long loop of having the media and politicians acknowledge the widespread issue before falling short of fucking doing anything about it.

The Labor government, which could force a national conversation around the issue and lead by example by forcing change will likely respond with some slides made on Canva about how ‘someone’ needs to show leadership and do something about this, despite being in fucking charge."

How to ignore it long term.

I've grey rocked the q following person in my life for probably 3 years now. They're my mom.

It really hurts listening to the brainwashing bs she chooses to consume. It's like day and night newsmax for her, and then she smokes cigarettes at night, and just sits on YouTube drinking alcohol alone.

She used to be so smart but has become an alcoholic smoker that hates vaccinations and doesn't trust doctors. She's a nurse(?). She orders random pills from people she finds on trust social, and takes them hopeing for a magic weightloss pill (shes nuts and refuses to take the weightloss pill or shots the doctors offer her).

She's mean and really emotionally disregulated. She doesn't eat regularly but is somehow obese and very self-conscious and mad about it. It's like over the last decade, she's forgotten how to be a normal person. Doesn't know eating at regular intervals is healthy, that sleeping 8 hours is ideal. It's insane really.

I need to detach from it more than grey rock. I can't keep feeling so bad. She's choosing these things that don't make sense and are so harmful.

So yeah, I can grey rock- the weather is such a great topic but what's the next step.
