 Which is why I view NA and podcasting writ large as a ponzi scheme.

Here's the MO: Operate, experience dissent, burn the dissenters and seek new suckers.

It's once or twice removed from an actual Ponzi scheme, but the vibe isn't dissimilar.

 I can do more in 500 chars on here than AC/JCD can do in 1600 episodes.

I experience dissent from my posts.

Ask around, who has legit personal beef with me? Few if any.

I'm 52. I come from a place of zero self-concern/self-respect.

Everything I am today is self-work.

Listen to my first appearance on BWB for more.

I don't have ~250K dumbasses to front for my ideas. Lifelong it's been me and nothing but.

I type because I care.

 @669563d8 Last time I donated, reading of my note was totally fucked up, a disgrace to themselves.  In a time I would have really liked some support from like minded people.  You can read about my situation in my other replies on here this morning in a coincidence.  Skipped my health karma.  Then spent the next 5 episodes complaining about low donations.  That -is- karma.  I will listen to the show for free from now on.  They shat on me for supporting them in my time of need, never again.
