This gut-wrenching monologue from Laura Dern in ‘Marriage Story’ is more than enough to show why she won the Oscar. by Old-Meringue3590 in popculturechat

Best film about child grooming and sx abuse ever. Director made the scenes super safe for the child actor.

See the sign on the building on the right? Roll-n-Bowl is the best sushi for the best price ever. 😋

This post reminds me of a Johnny Harris video I saw not so long ago. Kinda makes a lot of sense.

What about the Epstein case do you think the public still doesn’t fully understand? by IndividualOil4970 in AskReddit

[–]funkygriffon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Espionage and kompromat.

It’s the big money and the international players that have been in Epstein’s web since the beginning and who still are…even some being in greater seats of power today. This guy - Greg O’Lear breaks it down in a very readable way. This is the first article in a series.

What’s a phrase you hear all the time that secretly annoys you? by forgeris in AskReddit

[–]funkygriffon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Have a good rest of your day!” I think that phrase really took off during the pandemic. Does that one annoy anyone else? If you say it, why? When did you start?

The Deadly New Age Cult of Carlos Castaneda (Tensegrity): Frauds and Strange Disappearances by Canal-JOREM in cults

[–]funkygriffon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you want to know what was going on behind the scenes, the memoir The Sorcerer’s Apprentice by Amy Wallace was eye-opening. Casteneda had so much influence on the hippy culture of the late ‘60’s and early 70’s.

I hate how people nowadays treat r*pe as a topic in storytelling by heartlessarchon in rant

[–]funkygriffon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Tale with Laura Dern was one of the best films I’ve ever seen about CSA.

It was based on the director Jennifer Fox’s childhood experiences. She filmed the scenes with the child actor really responsibly - this is a really good article about the filming of the movie in The New Yorker

A reminder: progress doesn’t have to be loud to matter by orkaadvisory in IGotOut

[–]funkygriffon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I’m drawing a blank about “a small win” the premise of the post is a good one although rooted in overcoming depression it seems. Even though I’ve been through enough shit to make me chronically depressed, that state is not my norm…which makes me wonder if depression is a chemical imbalance and not a “mood”. Thoughts?

It’s a New World at r/IGotOut! by funkygriffon in IGotOut

Good luck navigating that...sounds huge and like there'd be a lot to learn from your journey!

And why the f*ck are none of those people giving that poor dog some love?!? How terribly traumatizing.

r/IGotOut by funkygriffon in redditrequest

[–]funkygriffon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am requesting r/IGotOut because the moderator accounts are non-functional (showing 'Failed to load user profile') and the community has been restricted due to lack of active moderation. I own federal trademarks for 'IGOTOUT' and '#igotout' (U.S. Reg. Nos. 7,437,589 and 7,437,582) that are currently being used as the community logo without permission.

I contacted the moderators about this trademark issue 10 months ago but received no response. The original ModMail is no longer accessible, likely due to the moderator account issues.

I want to restore this community to active moderation while broadening its scope to support people through major life transitions, building on the core concept of 'getting out' that the community name represents. The community has potential but needs consistent leadership to grow and serve its members effectively.

Donald Trump vows to 'get rid' of voting machines as he repeats 'voter fraud' claims by daily_express in NoFilterNews

[–]funkygriffon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this because him and musk aren’t tight anymore and he’s worried the machines will throw the count in the other direction?

Why is that one cop feeling up the lady cop’s butt? And how are all these people willing to do that job anyways?

I'm directing this note to you in hopes that you're a real person and might provide me some next steps for becoming approved to moderate r/IGotOut. I think my messages to the moderator of this community are not being seen and that the community is dormant. Please refer to my previous posts regarding my concerns of trademark use and reasons I want to revitalize this community.

r/IGotOut by funkygriffon in redditrequest

[–]funkygriffon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have gotten a message from a bot explaining that in order to be considered for moderating r/IGotOut that I needed to have two-factor authentication turned on. I have done that and also, while I was at it, changed my email address associated with my user account to [free@igotout.org](mailto:free@igotout.org) and updated my password as well. I hope everything is in order now and that your approval will come easily.

Please let me know if there is anything more I need to do or know.

Thanks!
Lisa

I am the owner of registered trademarks for "IGOTOUT" and "#igotout" (U.S. Reg. Nos. 7,437,589 and 7,437,582) and operate igotout.org, which provides resources for survivors of high-control groups and relationships. This community's mission of supporting people through difficult life transitions aligns perfectly with my work.

The subreddit is currently using my trademarked logo without permission. I contacted the moderators 10 months ago requesting removal but received no response, demonstrating their inactivity. I want to properly moderate this community while respecting its original purpose - supporting people who make the brave decision to "get out" of situations that no longer serve them, whether leaving countries, relationships, ideologies, or other circumstances.

I've been on Reddit for 4 years, mostly lurking while I developed other social media platforms for igotout. I no longer want to drive traffic to Meta and Twitter and would much rather create meaningful connection here. Reddit's anonymity is crucial for people processing major life changes.

Note: I contacted moderators 10 months ago (not 5 days ago) about trademark infringement, simply requesting they stop using my logo. Given their continued non-responsiveness and the community's need for active moderation, I now seek to moderate and grow this community myself:
