I usually have a drink every night, sometimes two. I don't drink wine as much as I used to because I didn't regulate my intake as well when I wasn't making individual cocktails. Beer feels me up too much now, though it's still delicious.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
The Pilgrims settled at Plymouth Rock because the captain of the Mayflower was afraid to spend any more time looking for a better spot, because the ship was running low on beer.

Pilgrims, pioneers, and beer. That really kinda explains America. Churches, saloons, brothels, and a driving desire to build more of them in new and different places.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Beer probably saved the human race at one point or another. Probably several times. I'm all in favor of it.
I started doing my own nails and I'm getting better at it. I think getting some good cuticle remover, a good base coat and an excellent top coat (thanks to Plei) have made all the difference. I'll still cut them short every few weeks, but then I do a manicure and paint them and they grow out nicely.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I think the only time my grandmother had alcohol was by accident. It was supposed to be lingonberry juice at one of her ladies' lodge teas. It had fermented. So you had all these drunken swedish ladies who had no idea what hit them.
I love that story.
I think the guidelines are fairly ridic. If you followed them, you'd never get drunk ever. And getting drunk is far from the only reason to drink, but I don't think it's the scourge that those rules make out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Getting drunk sure isn't the only reason to drink, nor the most frequent reason to imbibe, but it's naive to think it's not a draw. And, dude, it can be FUN. So back off, Puritans. But obviously not the ones with the beer shortage problem.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
To be fair, if you're drunk you haven't been drinking in moderation. The question of whether you should at all times limit yourself what is moderate is separate from defining the terms.
