Right? My pandemic hobby was cocktails. Never even tried drinking anything more complicated than a screwdriver before, but fell down the cocktail youtube rabbit hole because of "how to drink".

So, over the course of a year I made a hundred different cocktails and blogged my experiences on my blog, twitter, and Facebook. Most of the cocktails were simple 3-ingredient things based on what I had available, but a few were elaborate messes like eggnog or a Ramos gin fizz.

I had my neighbors coming over to me when I was outside thanking me for the cocktail blogging and saying it was one of their favourite things to see on Facebook, and asked me to keep posting them.

Social media doesn't have to be terrible.



Agreed. Personal responsibility is always a factor. Some people game the system by raising the victim flag which makes them a protected class and the idea that they had a hand in the situation is not talked about cuz victim blaming.
