So proud of you for this huge step. I’m at 10.5 years. Early recovery is emotionally fraught. There’s so much to learn and process. New relationships add their own intensity, so it may be best to focus on yourself right now. Wishing you health and healing.

U.S. forces likely bombed an Iranian elementary school on Feb. 28 during an operation targeting a nearby military base, a New York Times analysis suggests. It is the deadliest known episode of civilian casualties since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran — and no side has yet taken responsibility.

You clearly wrote and published “nuclear weapons” not “nuclear program”. Hard to believe your stated intention when you won’t even take accountability for the post as an error (at the least) and instead try to make it seem as if your viewers somehow misunderstood it and needed clarification.

this is one of the most psychotic things Trump has ever posted
A very sad thing happened last night in Hollywood. Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS. He was known to have driven people CRAZY by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump, with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump Administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness, and with the Golden Age of America upon us, perhaps like never before. May Rob and Michele rest in peace!
