      “Roughly 4 in 10 young adults who drink alcohol report drinking alone at least once in the past year,” said lead author Kasey Creswell, associate professor of psychology at Carnegie Mellon.

      Only 4 in 10? 6 in 10 young adults who drink alcohol never have a beer or glass of wine on a cozy evening in? I would have expected it to be the other way around.

      Some people might not consider having one drink “drinking,” but, I don’t know exactly how this study was conducted.

        Shits stressful out there. Lot of edge to take off.

        Forgive me if I have an extra beer or two at night as the price of everything tripled

                Yeah, alcohol is bad for you. I dont think anyone should be surprised by that. So is chocolate cake and pizza and staying up late dancing and being really stressed at work because you are trying to get a promotion. But we do these things anyway because they are part of life. To optimize life away in the name of health is to put the cart before the horse. Your body is generally able to adapt to and heal from the abuse you shovel onto it and continue functioning. There are people who down handles of vodka every day and continue functioning quite normally.

                Having a beer or two on your back porch every once in a while is going to have a negligible effect on your physical and mental well being. Like, seriously, if you legitimately think that occasional, moderate consumption of alcohol, done without compulaion and having no obvious negetive effects on one’s health, day to day life, or relationships is problematic because a scientific study said “alcohol is bad for you (duh)” - then I think it is worth taking a step back and considering if you are overthinking things.

                    Being stressed at work is a problem. There are articles about that as well. Generally, most people support employers who cause their employees stress being jailed.

                    A chocolate cake or pizza is less bad for you than alcohol.

                            Either prove how emoji commenting is related to genetics or get tf out of with that rhetoric. I agree with the underlying sentiment of emoji spamming coming from annoying people, but so does social darwinist sentiment.
