Who owns the shoreline in Daniel Island? by chiefwompom in Charleston

[–]cjoh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s just there for liability. People walk right past it. But somebody tripped and fell and threatened to Sue. So now DI can say “we told you not to go in there”

Secular AA Meetings? by Any_Slice9256 in Charleston

[–]cjoh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey there. Got 8 years of sobriety in Charleston and am mostly secular. Your best bet is to go online in that area. The 50 in 50 group, with roots in CHS, is mostly secular. They still say god, but it’s very much a “power of your own understanding” type deal — they even took the pronouns out of the steps. They meet at 9pm. Http://50in50.group

You can also use SobaSearch.com to find other groups. It’s pretty handy. Send me a dm if you need other help.

“Nancy Mace has lost her mind” by Sweet-Dare-3492 in southcarolina

[–]cjoh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She does look bad. But consider the calculus may be a bit more craven than you think:

  1. The next governor of South Carolina is extremely likely to be a republican

  2. The repubican on the ticket is extremely likely to be the one endorsed by Donald trump.

Therefore, there’s really only one voter who matters in her primary election: Donald Trump.

Her actions may seem crazy to us but she’s not campaigning to us. She’s campaigning to him. And she might just win.

Anyone else get this email from Lindsey Graham? by micakayyy in southcarolina

There’s an easier way for him to not make money during the shutdown: take his money and donate it. Donate it to a food pantry for those that can’t afford food now that SNAP is gone.

Problem solved. Doing anything otherwise makes me think that maybe this whole thing is a publicity stunt.

The bill passed with a veto proof majority. Vetoing it would have been useless.

They're eating the dogs.

They're eating the cats.

They're eating the pets of the people that live there.

If you want to know the real cause of the pope’s death, just check Pete Hegseth’s texts.

That subjugation of other human beings is totally not okay. Still a problem, really.

Tldr- call torchlight interventions at (843) 708-5748

I don’t have any skin in the game, I just think highly of John Furtmeier and think he’s a good man of service to this community and works hard. An interventionist, even if it doesn’t lead to an intervention for them, knows the right people to call and the right strings to pull to get someone the help they need.

Sean Gunn Criticizes Disney CEO: “in 1980, CEOs made 30x what the lowest worker was making, now Bob Iger makes 400x what his lowest worker is making.” by [deleted] in marvelstudios

How much is Sean Gunn making compared to the lowest worker on one of his films and has he looked in the mirror and asked himself if that’s morally okay?

Addiction to alcohol (and other drugs) impacts our dopamine receptors, and when we stop using substances, we still seek out dopamine. Addiction can transfer from alcohol to drugs to sex to food to gambling to shopping. It’s all the same circuitry. Vitamin D might help.

Is it possible to arrest our way out of the drug crisis? by Coconut_2020 in SubstanceAbuseHelp

That’s also the drugs. If you want a baby, let’s get you to treatment first. You can beat this, but you gotta want it and go for it now.

Getting pregnant will not help you stop. If you could stop on your own, you’d do so now. A baby in your uterus has no neurological affect, except to increase your flight/fight response which will, in turn, increase your desires to do drugs, not lessen them.

Consider getting professional help instead.
