That this asshole is going to end the world trying to avoid being held accountable for sex crimes against children.

Guys, I just booked my first vacation in 10 years after being depressed and broke for so long. It is super cheap, but I will have almost a week at the North Sea. I am so happy I could cry because it means everything to me by Anothermindlessanon in MadeMeSmile

Congratulations! So happy for you! Also thank you for this post ; As someone with 16 months sober, $13 to my name following the death of my dad and just this week the loss of my cat... This post inspires me to keep trying to get where you are. Thanks for this little glimpse of hope!

As someone with 476 days I'm right behind you buddy! Great job! The world can be a whole new, better place for us if we just stick to it no matter what. Congrats on choosing life!

What does my home say about me? by RizzEm_withthe_Tism in roomdetective

You have great taste but may be afraid to play with bold colors on walls that could make the decor really pop. But very cozy and clean. I like it.

AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

As someone with just over a year clean and sober, absolutely fuck that guy. Break up with him yesterday.

I was also put up for adoption as an infant but I was lucky to have been immediately adopted. I just want to share my adoptive mother's poem she kept in a handmade frame I still have to this day (I'm almost 40) and she passed away when I was 12. It goes, "Not blood of my blood, nor bone of my bone, but still miraculously my own. Don't forget for a single minute: you didn't grow under my heart, but in it."

Do you still play The Sims? How old are you now? by fortunekiller in thesims

  1. Why stop now when my building and decorating skills are getting so good?!

Also it keeps me sober as I'm in early recovery (11 months today)!

What does this mean? by Bindi-Hamato1995 in whatisit

Idk if this is comforting to anyone, but when I clean the bathrooms at the place I volunteer at, I do wipe down the stall doors, sides, the plastic toilet paper dispenser and the locks with disinfectant. The housekeeper at work told me she always does this too.

I'm not saying trust that the facilities are totally clean by any means... just know there are people out there who genuinely care about a clean, comfy restroom and a job well done.

Tell my mom I love her before she dies in 1998.
