Even after they took everything they could from me, the attacks didn't stop coming. Nicole telling people how heartbroken she was about me throwing away my life. Their joke is always suicide, but not mine #saintly #fraudulent #narcabuse #nonprofit #covid #historicalrevisionism #ReddingCa

“Some people
will sink
the whole ship
just because
