Kid wanted to catch up on Dragon Prince. So after a 3-year embargo I started giving Netflix money again. Which gave me the glistening opportunity to watch intervention again.

I have not done that since having a come-to-jesus with myself about the fact that the life I live is the result of countless challenging but correct choices.

It occurred to me that, as the child of two mentally-ill alcoholics with an ACE score of 6, I was absolutely lined up to appear on that show, had it existed.

And then it occurred to me that, as the child of two mentally-ill acoholics with an ACE score of 6, there would have been no one who would have given enough of a fuck to call A&E.

Now if you'll excuse me I have to drive my Porsche over to my broker to move a few hundred thousand dollars around.
