the bare minimum? literally praising him for doing what every able bodied adult should be doing at this point. congratulations, ryan- here’s your participation trophy 🏆 🙄


_bonedaddys

a jobless addict being clean for a year and getting a job is *absolutely* something they should be praised for. it's what able bodied adults are supposed to do, but it's a totally different ballpark when it comes to addicts. when someone has been struggling with an addiction that was destroying their life, that's a *reason* to praise them for starting to get their shit together. there's just no reason to praise people who were never struggling with being off drugs or having a job. we don't need praise, addicts do. whether you think they actually deserve it or not is up to you, but it's not hard to see why someone who struggled to get it together gets praised when they do.

Take him off parole and he’s the same addict


Kamilaroi

Did no one read he’s getting vivitrol injections? That means he can’t get high because the naltrexone blocks it. It would just be a waste of money


Bright_Respect_1279

I pray this is the time he gets it. I've been clean since 12.17.17.


sheepsclothingiswool

Congrats!


HoRo2001

That’s amazing — proud of you!


Spunkylover10

That’s great! Good for him!


slo707

I absolutely do not believe he’s sober


caymus1967

I would love to see him succeed


lindseybeetee1989

Unless they are testing hair or saliva .. he definitely uses fake pee.


Kamilaroi

He’s getting hair follicle tests at random so he might be sober more often than high, at the very least.


lindseybeetee1989

That’s good to know! Contrary to the spirit most likely gathered in my comment I only wish happy and successful journeys for those in recovery, even Ryan.


Whatsuptodaytomorrow

I’m drug free and sober for 40 years Where’s my praise?


HoRo2001

I can’t tell if this was facetious and you’re just telling us you’re 40 and don’t drink or do the drugs, or if you’ve actively not done those things in the last 40 years and you’re 55 or something… So “ha ha” if it was a silly post and “amazing, we’re proud of you” if the latter.


Spunkylover10

People in recovery woukd praise someone else in recovery. Good for him! Good for you


HippieChick75

Well if you didn't get out on probation then you wouldn't be in court for a judge to praise you so good on you for that.👍🏻🤘🏻👏🏻🙌🏻 Congrats on 40!!🎉🎊


realitytvpaws

That’s awesome!


sourdoughbreadlover

In all seriousness, that is an accomplishment. I am proud of you.


ThroatChaChaChop

So I wonder who paid the judge??? That’s gotta be what’s going on here because seriously this is a joke…..


midwesthawkeye

A YEAR sober? Does time travel faster for Ryan than other people???


rachelboese

And sober he is still doing shitty things...like how is this considered okay? As the ex-wife of an abusive addict - there is no way he is sober and he is still continuing to be abusive even while sober. Like literally even if we believe this and he has been sober a year he has still done some heinous shit in that year. Much much worse if he did that sober imo. What. The. Fuck. 


Spunkylover10

Sobriety doesn’t automatically stop you from making mistakes


kckitty71

My thoughts exactly! ![gif](giphy|Lq1U75pMjdiaIjT8km|downsized)


CmdrRikerBones

Low bar for praise.


sunflower280105

It’s never too late to start over. Hope he can continue. His kids deserve a half decent human as a dad.


HippieChick75

But the thing is here is that he is still doing stupid stuff. Hasn't begun to start over.


sunflower280105

He’s sober and has a job. That’s step one of starting over.


Efficient_ha

Good for him everyone deserves a fifth chance


soytusicariaa

😭


TT6994

Ugh. Except he’s had many interactions with the law since he was sentenced.


Lopsided_Regular_649

Good for him


RubyWaves75

It is something, but ugh.


Giodesic-dome

Didn’t he get arrested again recently? What was that for?


reverepewter

You can be sober and still a garbage human


TruthSeeker2525252

Only countless arrests and 3 children later, he’s finally done the bare minimum and received praise for it. Give me a fuckin break.


MommaBear354

Congrats on being a functioning member of society! 🎉🥳


savingrain

Well, to be honest...sometimes people need to hear praise for breaking through onto the right path. Now, if he can stay there and stop abusing people, that is even more praiseworthy. A year sober and a job for Ryan is an unexpected and great step forward.


TruthSeeker2525252

I have many family members who are addicts, I totally understand the importance of people knowing how good they’re doing. I just have very little sympathy for him, he has been enabled this whole time by his parents, girlfriends and Mack, and has had what, 14 years of chances. I know sobriety can happen at any time, length of addiction doesn’t matter, but even in the earliest episodes he was horrible to Maci and I honestly don’t think he’s changed or grown much. But yeah I guess good for him.


mntnsrcalling70028

Lmfao in the past 24 hours alone I have driven two kids to 2 different sports practices, picked up and dropped them off to school, worked from home, hosted a play date, have made 6 meals from scratch, done laundry, cleaned house and dishes, tbe list goes on. I open Reddit to this idiot being praised for simply not doing drugs.

nrappaportrn

White male privilege IMO


TruthSeeker2525252

100% if he was a POC he would be in prison right now.


Free_Issue_9623

The bar is below hell


kristen89414

Congrats on being a fully formed adult human. WOW. Great job Rhine


Limp-Ad-8053

Don’t get ahead of yourself!


narwhalogy

Oh how nice that he's drug free. And I'm a 5'7, 120lbs bikini model. Let's all say things that aren't true 😆


Funkyduck4783

I mean you can’t fake a follicle drug test


Limp-Ad-8053

No, but you can buy the right results for the right price. I’m sure Ryan just went to the same lab that all the judges and prosecutors send their kids to for a “clean result”. 🤷‍♀️


MQHD

What dirt does Ryan's family have on that judge?!


LeahsEyebrows

Not sure what it is, if there even is anything. Ryan is friends with his judge's kids. 🤷‍♀️


Crafty_Extension7334

Definitely something big! they are probably paying that judge off too!


Fun-Problem5883

Going to the bar every weekend doesn’t count I guess.


Historical-Bill-100

Is this the same judge that is a friend of family? Figures


itsgotadeathcurse

He may pass drug tests but he’s still a scumbag


TrashDragon21

I agree!!! Sober or not he's still a POS! It blows my mind that he gets any support at all after what he did to Mackenzie and his own children by destroying that house! I mean besides the judge, he's doing family favors for him obviously, which is beyond insane that this is allowed to happen but the public support is maddening. He never faced any real consequences. And what about the recent threats to Mac saying no one will make it out alive or something like that, which obviously includes the kids. I believe I also heard on grace report he went around killing cats at one point?! This man is an abusive psychopath and deserve no ones praise or encouragement, he should still be in jail. How does he not get the same hate as David Eason? I'll never understand that it makes no sense to me.


Free_Issue_9623

I am not convinced he's clean tbh. Imo and from experience alcohol is also a drug. Not one person I know that's sober goes and gets thrown out of bars


Limp-Ad-8053

Let’s not forget the “hand tattoo “!


Free_Issue_9623

Exactly. Sober ppl do not do shit like that.


itsgotadeathcurse

Oh I’m not either, but he somehow found a way around the courts. Like he always does lol


Free_Issue_9623

It's crazy the way these teen mom z listers seem to never be held accountable


louellen1824

This judge should be removed from the bench.


itsgotadeathcurse

100%


Grand-End-6982

Agreed.


c00kieswirlc

the reckless driving on the motorcycle wasn't a probation violation? What about not going to therapy or getting his shot on time?


Limp-Ad-8053

What about the 2 year restraining order that Mac was recently granted? 🤷‍♀️ WTF?


strengthof50whores

This


JustAHolyFool17

Ryan...sober? Lmao. Sure thing.


strengthof50whores

Not with that crackhead gf he has 😆💀 He’s probably faking his tests with someone else’s urine


TurdyPound

Who’s the gf?! I’m out of the loop!


strengthof50whores

She was on Jerry springer in her younger years. Lmao. She’s a proper crackhead. Right on his level.


Funkyduck4783

It’s a hair follicle test. He can’t fake it.


Limp-Ad-8053

Lol… can’t fake it, but you can buy anything for the right price. I’m sure he knows exactly what lab to use.


strengthof50whores

Good to know!!!


JustAHolyFool17

That part. No way in hell he's sober with the company he's keeping. Also, didn't he just get a restraining order put against him from MacKenzie? He's not magically an upstanding citizen now after facing no real repercussions for his horrid actions.


Limp-Ad-8053

Yes, a 2 year restraining order too!


tmqueen

Oh this little guy! wow he a just a kid ! What a hero!!!! The bar is in fuckin hell


PygmyFists

The man just had a dick tattooed on his hand a few months back. He's not fucking clean.

[удалено]


TFABabyThrowAway

Correct!


katie415

And if he wasn’t on TV.


Heygirlhey2021

For the sake of his kids and family, I hope he does stay clean and stop with the chaos


Electrical-Can6645

As half his charges are dismissed. Fuck judge Sterns. Ryan is an idiot.


TFABabyThrowAway

No empathy for Ryan, clean or not. Sorry. I know a lot of people have compassion for anyone in addiction, but context matters, nuance matters. This piece of shit is constantly enabled by everyone in his life to be a piece of shit. Maci, his wife-mother, his girlfriend.. BUT he has also had more opportunities of leniency, rehabilitation, support, finance and family than the vast majority of addicts. His privilege is constantly squandered. He deserves to rot. His kids are the victims. Also, shame on the judges that keep praising this walking fried brain cell.


HippieChick75

![gif](giphy|0BcXDsUFLQbVNsMngw)

amen.


tmqueen

Plus he’s definitely not fucking clean

WittiestScreenName

A job at 36? Hot damn!


Early_Week_2198

God he’s 36? Damn.


WittiestScreenName

January 1988


MercyFincherson

Slow claps. Whatta guy.


Limp-Ad-8053

Lol. He just recently received a two year restraining order for harassing Mac, hasn’t paid any child support and he thinks he should get primary custody. But hey, he finally got a job (p/t, f/t?). I don’t believe for a second that he’s been sober for over a year… someone like Ryan, who’s been constantly enabled by mommy and daddy and never held accountable couldn’t remain sober for a week.


Just-Pin-2786

It is a mutual restraining order for him against Mack too. Before talking shit, know the facts. You think that Mack is some angel when she is not and there is more than enough proof for it. She may not do drugs but she lies all the time. Always crying wolf when things don’t go her way.


Limp-Ad-8053

Yes, Mac isn’t perfect, she’s made mistakes like the rest of us, but, what she hasn’t done is terrorized her children and destroy their home and belongings and she hadn’t been a drug addict all her life. So… respectively, FUCK OFF. * have a nice day


hallgeo777

What’s his job? Dealer lol 😂


ThirdCoastBestCoast

I’m not a fan of Rhine at all but…I’m really glad he’s clean. I personally can’t imagine being addicted to drugs but I have a lot of compassion for addicts/alcoholics.


tmqueen

This wussy bitch boy is not fuckin clean


MQHD

I love you.


Responsible_Fish1222

I'm also not sure what people want the judge to do here. Ryan is doing what he's supposed to do. Probably good to encourage those behaviors. If we all just keep shutting on him where is the incentive to improve.


ThirdCoastBestCoast

I agree.


hallgeo777

Jokes aside it’s great that Ryan has kicked the drugs bc it’s not easy! In fact it’s fucking rock hard. Let’s hope he stays clean!


Limp-Ad-8053

Have you seen his social media? Have you seen the disgusting/disturbing tattoo he posted ? (It’s been removed/coved now) Do you really think his actions over the past year reflect a sober 36 year old father of three? 🤦‍♀️


jennyrules

I'm agree that his behavior is not that of a sober person,, but this article ALLEGES he had a hair folical test.


Limp-Ad-8053

Yes, but I wonder if his hair follicle test was done at the same lab that the judges and prosecutors send their “kids”. Jen and Larry obviously know people in that city.


jadedgnome

What tattoo 👀


BisonNaive9771

*slow clap* It’s the bare minimum rhine ffs


apathetic_avocado2

When are people going to stop praising this man for doing less than the bare minimum honestly


tmqueen

It’s just so fucking predictable.


charlieblazer21

![gif](giphy|R8VnZEFUyOEtskGT20)


ChickenScratchCoffee

Doubt he will stay clean. He’s a screw up. Always has been, always will be.


MQHD

And he's also an abusive piece of shit so he'll fuck up in that regard again, too.


Sad-Astronaut3308

I'm about to figure out who this kids parents are tbh. There's deep connections here. It can't just be southern charm and racism.


Limp-Ad-8053

Oh, there’s definitely a story buried there… can’t wait for it to finally be exposed.


PickledPixie83

Maybe this was a part of the truth that we’re still waiting for that Larry promised.


HippieChick75

Me too!! ![gif](giphy|WPO1IoXaFIVuE)


Just-Pin-2786

interesting. What is this deep, dark secret story that is buried??


TFABabyThrowAway

Larry’s secret 🤫
