that was me in my motorcycle years. it was fun, intense, and exciting, but risky af. i knew 3 people that died.
@BackOnMyBS yeah when people get hurt and die there's no fun in it unless you see yourself as some sort of bluesy morose reflective type. people who willingly take on unnecessary risks acting like that became disgusting to me. for me it was the car accidents and the blackout drinking. i still can't bring myself to drink because it makes me remember how bad people can get with it. it just doesn't feel safe.
