The steady growth of this community is what makes the maintaining of the magic here possible. I appreciate each and every one of you so much. When I see the big welcome you give newcomers who dare to introduces themselves, it makes me emotional. I've really been blown away by the power of this online community. It's just a group of authentic humans doing the very best they can, often failing, sharing our successes, our defeats, our frustrations, our music, our art, our recipies, our families, our hearts and our favorite memes. It's truly beautiful and when I'm wondering what the fuck I'm doing--coming here reminds me over and over and over again: it's not about me.
Ladies and gents I can’t express how much supporting the people who advertise on #DumpsterFire supports us too. I absolutely ADORE this product and you get a free travel size Neurolux Peptide Cream with your order on top of your 20% off. If you want to try one thing the Cosmic Concentrate is DIVINE. #Skincare

This week on #FactorySettings @justjeren and I talk about the elephant in the room. MONEY! We talk about when we first became aware of it, how it affected our parents' divorces, how much we spent on our addiction, being dependent, financial insecurity and so much more!

Hello new followers, I hope I don’t disappoint you. I want this place to feel like home, where we can escape the Thunderdome and process the world. Where we can post dog pics and recipes and book recommendations. Where we support each other as we get sober, lose weight, embark on new business opportunities, creative endeavors, relationships and travels. I want this to be your oasis of sanity and laughter in an increasingly mad world. A creative outlet where you can share your spirit with us.
We might not have any control over the news cycle—but we can control our habits and attitude. It all starts with us. And hopefully a little piece of that will start here.

Bridget breaks down the meteoric rise and tragic fall of Oscar bait, and generally terrible film, Emilia Pérez.
Good morning
I am healing from the reconstruction surgery that happened a week ago but started two years ago
I don’t want to be weak and tired today
But I am
I am tired of persevering.
Nevertheless that is what I must do
If I have to be tired and foggy headed I should let go of the resentment and find out what wonders this day can hold

The writing prompts are back! And since everyone is talking about "what is a woman?" I thought we should dig into our Factory Settings and find out what we learned about this stuff.
