#Alcoholics in a #Whorehouse

“You say rivers of wine flow in heaven, is heaven a tavern to you? You say two houris [beautiful virgins] await each believer there, is heaven a brothel to you?” – 11th-century Persian poet Omar Khayyam

Why wait?
Get your wine and prostitutes right now (what you secretly do anyway), imbecile maggots.

CONSIDERING T****'S DISDAIN FOR #ALCOHOL & #ALCOHOLICS (he doesn't drink since his brother died of #alcoholism), these newly emerging reports of his SoD pick #Hegseth being frequently drunk (once kicked out of a Strip Club in the early morning hours for trying to accost the nude dancers on stage), I can't image this new reporting would sit well with him (but he'll continue to defend him publicly b/c the pick reflects on him personally.) #BestPeople #TeamOfIdiots #OhHellNo

2 years sober from alcohol... I didn't think it was possible

And I'm not sure if I could have done it without the support of my wife, my friends, and AA

My heart has been recovering and no longer need an ablation, at least for now

Been the victim of a right wing deep fake video campaign to defame me, lost a child, was discriminated against and fired, and suffered from avoidant personality disorder

Yet here I am... alcohol free...

Well fuck.

Fantastic. Inspirational, that MD introduced a bill to make this easier. Cautionary, that insurance companies haven't heard of these. GOOD NEWS STORY will send you into the weekend w/ a smile.

I never thought I'd make it this far but part of me wonders if it's worth it considering all of the hate and terror organizations out there and no rights to our own bodies. The men, the Christian's, and the nazi groups, I'm scared to leave the house; might be a good time to pick up drinking again.

Another year older and 9 months sober

#question of the day: anyone familiar with resources on how #Alcoholics Anonymous and other #TwelveStep programs evolved out of the #OxfordGroups?

I finished reading a biography of Frank Buchman, who founded the Oxford Groups (an explicitly #Christian organization) and the relationship is discussed briefly.

According to the biography, the founders of AA were originally members of OG and the book portrays split as amicable.

I'd like to understand more deeply AA's roots and evolution

I got 1/4 through a Shirley temple before i realized it didn't taste right

I was served an alcoholic drink when I asked for a non alcoholic drink

245 days of sobriety just got ruined and it wasn't my choice

I'm struggling to fight the urge to start sobbing in the club

My word, can we talk about Jamie Lee Curtis on The Bear?!? WOW.

Can we also take a moment to recognize how triggering and uncomfortable that episode must be for ACOA?

Flat tyres, global warning and other shit

Today is #MothersDay, so a big hug to everyone who has an alcoholic mother.

Their drinking is not your fault.

Today can be a long day for children of #alcoholics but, remember, you are not alone.

You can get help and support from the NACOA - https://nacoa.org.uk/

Does alcoholism and depression feel like a distant memory sometimes, only to turn and slap you in the face when you least expect it?

It's really really tough to continue when there's a lot of stuff happening that I need alcohol to help me with...

"How...can I find the Power within myself..? In time... it came to me: I have always had the choice between goodness and evil, between unselfishness and selfishness, between serenity and fear." -- AA Daily Reflections, January 15.

It's so good to be in a meeting with other recovering #alcoholics and get #grounded before I start dealing with life on life's terms.

Staying #sober gives me a chance to be part of the #goodness of which you speak.

Thanks, #AA.
