I was an alcoholic in my early 20’s. I was (then) undiagnosed with bipolar disorder and I guess I was trying to self medicate. It didn’t really help with anything, but I was pretty blind to that at the time.

It was a Friday, and some “friends” came over and we drank and had a “good time.” I keep using quotes because I don’t think I enjoyed that sort of thing then, and certainly don’t now.

The party progressed as they do and my ex-wife and I ended up in the bed with a young lady. Both wanted to fool around and I was not thinking about consequences for any of the three of us. Stuff happened.

The next day, realized what had happened, felt awful, and yes, scared to some degree. Girl said not to worry about it, wasn’t her first time. I said ok, but she was not to come over anymore. Everyone agreed and we went separate ways.

A year later, from what my lawyer explains, she told a girl friend of hers about that night, and it ended up getting back to the parents, etc. Cops came and talked to me, and I spent 6 months in county jail waiting to get sent to circuit court. Ex-wife was also arrested.

I pled guilty without a trail, and told the judge that I was responsible for the party, etc and got sentenced to 12 years.

I took prison very seriously as a sign that some major changes needed to take place in my life. I got a job teaching people to read in our adult educational facility at the prison and started going to church. Worked on mending fences with my family as what I had done affected them as well.

After several years I was transferred to another facility and ended up working at a textile plant run by the facility and volunteered at the church there.

When I came home I returned to my career (no minors are even allowed to work at the specific place I do, so that was a good fit) and married a wonderful woman (within a few years of one another). She cannot have kids, which seemed like a serendipity even though I am allowed to have my own as a non-violent offender.

I got involved in some things online after coming home that I shouldn’t have (being hateful, not anything related to my crime) which was brought on by something that happened while I was locked up. It was a mistake thinking that anything in there related to anything in the free world. A friend I made at work challenged my thinking on that, about six months after I left that group.

I’ve agonized over how to address this here, and I’ve ended up doing it on the spot anyways. I hope that clears some things up.

I’ve tried to focus on my immediate conduct towards others since joining Nostr, and trying to build up instead of destroy. I’ve gotten the help for my mental health I needed, and just tried to do right.

I can’t speak to any of the “quiet hurts” it may have caused the young lady. I’m not allowed to have contact (which seems sensible) so I haven’t been able to hear how she did after. I do know she still lives in this area and is married with kids now. I’m happy for her and take precautions to not be in her area, and I almost never go anywhere alone.

Besides that I have an excellent relationship with the local PD, comply with what I’m asked to do, and I come off the registry in five more years.

It’s a mixture of truth, lack of context, and people thinking they understand the law when they don’t.

I am on the registry if that’s what you’re asking. But how I got there was not as bad as is usually portrayed, but it was still wrong doing, for which I pled guilty (not a deal) and served every single day I was sentenced.

I find very few people are actually interested in the facts though.

Seems doxxing is going around.

Thank you 🫂 this week I’m doing better 💙

This little guy was wandering around across the street from the house.

Mom saw a creature moving across the street when she looked out the living room window and shouted to me upstairs to see if I could tell what it was.

I walked down the hill to the street, and he started hiding from me underneath a horse trailer in front of the neighbor's storage barn. I went back up to the house and went inside.

That's when Mom started getting excited. He came out to start looking for me and wandered up to the street looking around.

I came back out and sat down on the edge of the front patio. Before you know it he came walking up until he got to me and started giving me the love and the licks.

Unfortunately he had no collar.

After about ten minutes mom and I decided to go around the neighborhood looking for his owner. Asked the neighbors that were outside their homes if they recognized him, and unfortunately no one did.

Mom said, "Why do all the strays come to us?" She was getting worried since neither of us had a clue what we would do with him if we didn't find an owner.

Lucky for us two of the next few neighbors we asked suggested the farm on the outer rim of the neighborhood.

We pulled up the long gravel driveway and there was a similar sized pup of a different breed walking around. We tried not to get our hopes up, but when we asked the girl who lived there she said, "Yup, that's one of ours."

I've never been much of dog person, but this little guy might have changed how I feel.

I was off line for sometime, tbh not sure how long I’ll stick around now. Fighting a serious depression, doing my best to see my reality and face it, but somehow just feels better to sleep and not think about anything.

I have so many questions like, do you really like hippos or was it flamingos the whole time?

I don't know who these people are, I assume you've made these npubs and fashioned a weird npub erotic fanfic
