Hello Pham, I just observed an interaction here that upset me greatly. A member of our community reached out in the darkness to express their gratitude for this being a safe space where they could get support in a stressful time and not be met with a barrage of political opinions and they were met with...a political opinion. Let me be clear: this definitely violates the one rule of DON'T BE A DICK.
If you feel the need to express your opinion about something politically, feel free to do so in the general community--NOT under the post of a member in distress. It's not the time or the place. We are Pham. We are here to love and support one another when we are struggling, not make a shitty situation even shittier by making it about us and our opinions.
Please ask yourself before you post a response to someone: does this need to be said and am I the one to say it? The answer is often NO.
I'm fiercely protective of the members of this community and keeping it safe. I'm even more protective of the women. And I will go full mama bear.
It was fun catching up with my old friend in comedy and sister in pregnancy, Jessica. Enjoy!
It was such a pleasure talking to Sally Satel about the opioid crisis, addiction, recovery, how it's a miracle anyone ever gets sober, the ramifications of political correctness in medicine and so much more. #WalkInsWelcome

Hey Pham,
Some of you have been asking if we have a list of our promo codes for all the Dumpster Fire & Walk-Ins Welcome sponsors. We made a list and you can find it here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11ErjcLnuDxjb4FibbeY3yh97UOUyfeqr5xz6zKV57mw/edit?usp=sharing
We'll do our best to keep it updated.
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.
