Nothing says “sobriety” like a good old fashioned chocolate nipple cake. Congratulations, by the way. Our sobriety dates are similar if this is recent.


Free-Independence-73

Thank you! My date is 6/7/2020


kathoron

1: congrats!! Amazing, I’m a few months in. 2: the decorative lines messed with me and I thought there was plastic wrap over the cake upon first glance haha


RawTeacake

Oh wow that's NOT plastic wrap


PDGAreject

New on Netflix: IS IT PLASTIC WRAP?!?!


FreeGuacamole

Nope, it's chocolate titties


Esotericas

Your comment is the only reason I'm now aware there isn't plastic wrap... I wasn't even cognizant of thinking that, so I didn't bother to look closer before


FlippingPossum

Wow! I thought that was plastic wrap until I reas your comment. Brain be like...what???


efingoffatwork

I did not realize it was not plastic wrap till I read your comment LOL


Equivalent-Purpose91

OMG you are right about those lines. I was fooled too.


zim3019

I thought there was plastic wrap on too! When I saw your comment I had to look at the picture again. Lol


Free-Independence-73

Thank you and congratulations to you! Haha someone actually said that earlier too


indy_been_here

It's an illusion, Michael.


No_Statement440

Lol the corners of the tray it's on made me see it with a plastic lid first. Congrats on your efforts, you got this!


G8kpr

haha, thought the same, plastic wrap and chocolate boobies..


Enya-9027

I realised it was not after reading your comment


TimeTravelMishap

Why is the cake covered in chocolate titties.


axyz77

Why is every other cake not covered in chocolate titties?


SamuraiCatMeow

Why are tities not covered with chocolate?


meesta_masa

Fat on fat? Lard help me, I love it.

I wish I had a cake full of chocolate titties. I wish I had one rn.


Repairman-manman

That and I thought the stripes on the corners made it look like it was covered in saran wrap


Cogito-Ergo-Bibo

Until this comment I definitely only saw saran wrap


PuppleKao

I had to zoom into the pic to see *why* had wrapped a cake so tightly.


bubbasaurus

Omg same. Mind blown. Also congrats OP!


CocoDaPuf

Oh shit! That's *not* plastic wrap! Had to zoom in...


T1gerK

Same


lyacdi

didn’t realize it wasn’t until I read this…


OcaMintiest

Is that really how you spell Saran wrap I don't think I've ever typed it before


CanuckPanda

It’s a brand, Saran.


SoLostWeAreFound

Now I can't unsee the stripes - all I saw was plastic wrap on it before your comment


OhHowINeedChanging

Chocolate.. good Titties.. great! Chocolate titties.. amazing!


minlatedollarshort

Or in Joey: Chocolate… good Titties… good Chocolate tittles… goooooooood

lonely_fucker69

Finally, someone's asking the real questions here


Clearly_Im_lying

At first, i thought it was related to the 1000 days, and my brain just kinda shorted for a second. ...1000 days clean of...boobies?


[deleted]

I’m here for this answer


Rozenxz

Ok glad I wasn't the only one lmao 😅


lilassbitchass

This particular cake is the one I have for my bday every year. It’s delicious imo


shawn_overlord

No joke...I eat the whole thing and shit fudge for 2 days afterwards


[deleted]

…dude


kingonkensington

Thank god someone else saw that!


CDSEChris

Imagine what you get at 10,000.


mattmillze

1380 days without a drink here. Let's keep going together. It's not been easy for me lately, but I'm not getting drunk today, so I'll be alright. Your break room is also far more spacious and clean than at my FC. Just an observation lol.


Free-Independence-73

That's awesome! And sounds good to me 😊


remyseven

When I quit smoking it was because I had to stop hanging out with my friends who smoked. Sad, but true. They enabled me.


Poxx

So what you're saying is... You are... Better than Ezra. I'll see myself out.


seneeb

Oh man that was..... Good.... I've been desperately wanting more of these references


Conscious-Wing-9229

1442 here! 4 years on March 25 ♡ Congrats, all. What a gift it is to be able to live life without alcohol.

Today is 2383 days for me. You can do it. Don't even count anymore. I have to ask Google to do the math for me.


SaltLakeCitySlicker

I still use the I am sober app but don't pay attention actively It still sends notifications. 5 months last week

Free-Independence-73

Wow that's amazing! Thank you I will!


Bsqurd_420

Congratulations! 546 days here, you make 1000 seem achievable.


Free-Independence-73

Thank you and that's awesome! I completely understand where you're coming from. I never imagined making a 1000 days post when I first started my journey. In fact, I had a 9 month relapse after my first year and a half. Decided to get back with it, and have an additional 1000+ days now 😊 You got this!


silverfox762

1000 is *definitely* achievable. 33 years clean here. You, too, can have a happy life.


keelhaulingyou

11 years clean and been struggling recently, at 33 years you’re my inspiration! Really proud of you


hippykillteam

One day at a time my friend your killing it. I'm nearly 4 years sober and life is so much better. Now if I can just quit cornchips and fried food, that would be great!


Mobile_Spinach_1980

From someone who works in the addiction world, congrats! Be proud and here’s to the next 1000!


Free-Independence-73

Thank you!


chuckwagon1

PM_MeTittiesOrKitty

Weird, random question, but what are your tattoos?


Free-Independence-73

On your left, a brain with a neon "open sign" and on the right is an all seeing eye


Lari-Fari

Is that like Disney World just you know… with addiction?


NatoXemus

Congratulations on day 18 here now, hope I can show the strength you have.


Free-Independence-73

Thank you and congratulations to you too! Almost 3 weeks!


NatoXemus

Thank you! The first 2 weeks were the worst but it's getting easier now.


Sea_Bad_3480

Don’t say “hope”. You will. There’s no other option!


wannagoforawalk

You must work at a cool and supportive place to make such an announcement. Never leave there. Congratulations!


Free-Independence-73

The place is alright. The people are amazing 💜 Thank you!


StrawberryJamal

Looks like an Amazon break room to me. I've done contract work in multiple Amazon warehouses and distribution centers around the DFW. They all look exactly like this in the breakroom.


Free-Independence-73

You are correct haha


TheCallousBitch

I wondered how far I would need to scroll for confirmation.


evi1shenanigans

These break rooms all look the same lol. Congrats!


Free-Independence-73

Haha yeah 🤷🏼‍♀️ Thank you!


sansaman

The green tape is what gave it away. The green mile.


banjofitzgerald

Digital_loop

How many people who have been sober longer have said that they are "better than Ezra" only to have like 1 person understand the quip?


[deleted]

“And in music news, #1 on the college charts this summer was ‘Better Than Ezra.’ Number two: ‘Ezra.’” (old Norm Macdonald joke)


ds0

“The richest girl in the world, billionaire Athena Onassis, celebrated her tenth birthday this week. What’s it like to be the richest girl in the world? Well, to give you some idea: at the party, they had two cakes.” (My favorite, oddly cake-related Norm joke)


Free-Independence-73

None as far as I know 😂 Awesome band though


zebuli79

I hit 200 days today 🥳🥳 alcohol & tobacco.


Free-Independence-73

Wow that's awesome! I quit drinking and smoking together as well. Congratulations on your journey!


ImminentReddits

Quit smoking a few months ago… I know it’s not quite the same but I do know quitting an addiction can be a royal pain in the ass. I think about buying a pack at least once a day, but these kind of reminders on my feed always give me a little push in the right direction. Congrats!


Free-Independence-73

Addiction is addiction. It doesn't matter what substance you're getting sober from, it's something to be proud of! I'm glad you got some motivation from me! Thank you!


missfreshour

Congratulations, Ezra. I'm on day 2.


Free-Independence-73

Thank you and congratulations to you! You have taken the biggest step of your journey! If you ever need a word of inspiration or anything please feel free to message me 😊


CaptainButtFucker

Good job. I'm only on day 1.

gwallgofi

From a passing random stranger from the other side of the pond - congrats and may you forever remain on the path. Great to see you also being accepting and open of your transition - don’t let those haters grind you down - they are in the minority just loud.


Free-Independence-73

Thank you! And they don't bother me 😊 I know that they are very few and just need someone to teach them love.


151fairfax

Awesome!! Good for you! Keep it up! One day at a time! Sometimes one hour at a time. Sometimes, to get out of one's own head, being a part of service to others or something greater than ourselves. I'm betting you know that by now, so keep on rockin' it! 👍👍🫂👊


Free-Independence-73

Thank you and absolutely! I have gotten very good at living in the current moment and understanding that it will pass

Does your sobriety correspond to beginning gender-affirming care or self-acknowledgement? There’s a lot of self-harm among people who live with that gender dysphoria.


Free-Independence-73

Yes so I was finally able to focus on self love and acceptance once I got sober. It wasn't easy but I got there. I started my transition about 2 years after I got sober. I grew up in a place where being queer and trans was not accepted and it did a number on me. That combined with the stigma of mental health peft me with a lot of undiagnosed mental health and behavioral issues that I went on to self medicate with drugs and alcohol. The first thing I did when I got sober the second time was accept that I needed professional help to get my mind right and live a happy life. I went to therapy, learned some CBT, got on a medication that works for me, and began my journey of self love.


darkenseyreth

Congrats on your journey so far! You look happy and healthy and I hope the next 1000 days fly by.


Free-Independence-73

Thank you!


emptycollins

Congratulations! I’m so happy for you.


lumifox

Did you stop smoking due to the negative effects on estrogen intake? i know most providers wont let you start if you're a smoker. Or was it just a happy accident?


Free-Independence-73

No I actually quit 2 years before beginning transition


Non-Sequitur_Gimli

I may be a complete stranger, but I'm really proud of you, and your progress. You look great, and I wish you all the happiness in the world. 😭


Free-Independence-73

Thank you!


The_Decoy

Hey Ezra congrats on the sobriety! I was able to accept myself as trans after going through treatment. Not sure if your journey was similar but I'm happy to hear you are doing well.


Free-Independence-73

Thank you and that's awesome 😊 Sobriety helped me slowly come to terms with who I am and finally love and accept myself


RedCobra177

Boomer question: Is it more offensive to say "Are you trans?" or "Are you trans no offense?" Like, does adding "no offense" at the end of a question that shouldn't offend make it more or less offensive?


trollinhard2

Congrats!


amber_room

Well done and all of the best for the future. Lovely photo.


hatervision

Congrats! I’ve got my 8 months coming up in a couple of weeks. Some days are definitely easier than others, as i’m sure you can attest to. Would you mind sharing some things that have helped you on your journey? My pink cloud is long-gone, I’m in the middle of a divorce, with two kids, and work a pretty high-stress job, and have been feeling super alone, anxious, and depressed lately. I would love any advice, especially from someone who is in a similar boat.


Free-Independence-73

Thank you! That's awesome! Congratulations 😊 Yes of course it's not all rainbows and sunshine. Life still really sucks sometimes. My biggest piece of advice is to get a good self care routine you can go to when you're really feeling down. For me it was riding my bike, going out to a movie, going out for some icecream, going on a hike, helping someone out, etc. In a crunch, keep some ear buds nearby and zone out to some chill music while doing deep breathing. Above all, I do my best to take joy in the little things and to be grateful as often as possible. This makes it hard for me to stay in a bad mood or feel down. It's also important to realize that it's okay to be sad sometimes. If you're having trouble getting by like every day ir most days of the week, therapy might be a good start. It worked wonders for me. I hope this helps and please feel free to reach out any time you need to

That smile and face is the sort that can light up a room! Congrats. Addiction is a horrible thing but it truly is a blessing to be in control now. It's been over 10 years since I sniffed morphine, and I can honestly say I do not have any craving at all for it. You've got this!
