        I know it’s probably named in reference to wine, but I like the idea of a Linux Roblox program (emulator? I don’t know Linux or video games) as someone’s manic sobriety project*.

        /* I don’t know if this is an identified thing, but most of the large number of recovering addicts I know sort of displace that manic type of love for the substance or behavior into one or more hobbies of some sort at first (examples include: repairing an old boat or classic car, building a house or cabin, making furniture or art, a bunch of types of exercise, joining a club, building furniture or bikes, or cooking) and gradually learn moderation afterwards.
