Here is a clip of Lizzo playing a 200-year-old flute in the library of congress. A beautiful performance from a well-trained musician. The outrage from certain people is just a symptom of their ideology.
(Every time you share this it makes a right-wing talking head cry.)

As per the NYT article today, it’s time to move away from the unproven ‘label’ of codependency into a model that is more loving, more compassionate, without labels or pathologies. #addict #addiction #addictiontreatment #addicts #codependency #codependent

Heroic individualism continues to permeate our culture and wreak havoc in its wake.
In addiction, it perpetuates idea that people must "hit bottom alone" to finally get better. But, as @maiasz points out in this thoughtful piece, many hit bottom and die:nytimes.com/2022/07/08/opini…

Porn Addiction is an addiction like any other addiction, I am not saying that is what you have however if you found yourself unable to not watch porn whilst in the chamber then perhaps @RobWeissMSW might be able to help you in some way. However maybe there is another explanation.

Typically, when addicts and loved ones of addicts enter a process of recovery and healing, they do not have good boundaries. In all likelihood, they don’t even know what good boundaries look like because they’ve never actually seen them in action.

Making love is about more than just pleasure. Sexual intimacy can strengthen feelings of safety and security between you. It can even restore them if they were being threatened. At its best, sex is generating and sustaining feelings of love and affection.

High levels of distress engage the “primitive” parts of our brain that are wired to ensure our survival.
If either of you become too emotionally triggered in an argument, it will become impossible to rationally engage with each other.

My first responsibility is to protect the American people and make sure we have vaccines for every American, including enough boosters. As soon as they're authorized, those eligible will be able to get a free booster right away in tens of thousands of sites across the country.
