It’s not just rich people. I have close friends who recently lost their youngest child, a recent college grad with a decent job, from a stable, loving, close-knit family, to a fentanyl-laced overdose. Addiction does not discriminate.

The fact that an emergency responder disclosed that she received Narcan - to TMZ, yet - seems a gross violation of her HIPAA rights. We simply should not know, and do not have the right to know about this. Shame.

As someone who spent the better part of the early 90s with a horrendous heroin addiction (lost our family, friends, and spent couple years living on the LA streets until we got our lives together- thanks to the magic of a pregnant street cat who gave us 6 lives to live for), I am sending this young lady all my love…

Forgive me as I’m quite elderly by Jezebel standards and do not know or care about this individual who appears at first blush to be a talentless degenerate with a good marketing machine, but I really only read this newsletter expecting an explanation for how “FEFE” is short for COVFEFE, and was disappointed. Thank you.

He's not supposed to be on the table and he knows it :)

Well at the tender age of 13 the dog has decided to finally start earning a living, clearly as a model.

I’m so excited - I close on a townhouse in two weeks and I am SO ready to move out of my cramped rented room and into 1,400 sf of QUIET that’s ALL MIIIIIIIINE. I think I’m more excited to have a spare office/guest room plus a guest bathroom than anything. And I have a two car attached garage and those of you who’ve…

So the Pope and Katy Perry walk into a bar and everyone fucking leaves.

Bobby’s pic caption from the linked article is pretty great:

I worked as a nurse in a locked psych facility. One of my NAC’s lost a baby this way. She was not prosecuted because I don’t live in a shit state, apparently. She was just gutted over it, because she had no education in her life that had ever led her to be able to understand how the biology of all this works. She…

Oh my god.

We have to protect society in case she gets out and, uh, tries to breastfeed more babies, uh, nevermind...    Ya, that seems a stupid amount.

Yes. Nothing says ‘let’s sit down and really weigh the pros and cons’ like meth addiction.

This is gonna sound harsh and I apologize for that. But you did what you could do. Sounds like everybody has tried...except him. You all feel bad because you care but don’t feel guilty or drive yourself crazy. You all tried. He didn’t.

Hi all. So I’m a bit late to the party and haven’t been around much but I’ve been struggling. My husband’s best friend Dan (who I’m also friends with but not as close) is an alcoholic. He has been for a few years now but it’s escalated in the past 6 months. His wife took out a PFA on him so he moved to his mom’s…

My dad passed last night. It wasn’t unexpected (cancer), but it was excruciating to watch. I felt peace in the moment of him finally being at rest, but now I’m just sad. I already had a moment where I thought “Oh, we’ll probably have dinner with Dad” after an upcoming event...and then realized that won’t ever…

I haven’t posted in awhile. Last time I mentioned reporting sexual harassment to HR at my work.

Kat Von D blocked me from instagram for commenting that she should vaccinate her baby, and stop promoting crazy anti-vax big pharma conspiracies. She is blocking every person who tells her to vaccinate. I feel kind of special?

Today I graduated with a B.A. in Sociology. It only took me 15 years to finally get a college degree, but I did it. I finally did...something with my life.

Good job by the SS/3B to notice what was going on and toss the ball for Doggy to fetch. But he didn’t realize he was supposed to keep doing it. When Doggo dropped the ball at his feet and the guy didn’t grab it for round two, clever Doggo picked it up and dropped it again, and then again. She was patiently teaching…
