Blogroll Updates

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I finally found the time, and the correct bit of code “magic” to get the new Blogroll tool setup and running properly. Now I can get around to finally making updates to the lists!!

I went through tonight and removed a number of blogs that had either gone away, or not been updated in quite some time, and added a couple of new links that I remembered off the top of my head. I still need to go back through my emails and comments from people I’ve talked to about adding, or just wanted to add as a thank you for commenting here. I’m sure I’ll still manage to miss a couple, so if you don’t see your blog, let me know.

Also, if you have any suggestions for bloggers who are survivors f cancer, depression, or some disability, leave a comment so I can add them in the appropriate list as well!

Thanks!

When things go wrong, they really tend to go wrong, and when things don’t work, trying to…

    Recently, an old friend started going through some old photo albums and scanning the photos to share them on Facebook. She and I were in the same church group back in those days, and many of the photos, despite being cringeworthy reminders of what we did in our younger days, have also brought back a…

  • Daisy Coleman Found Her Voice, But Her Struggle Didn’t Stop

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 3 minutes

    Which brings us to Daisy. She did not get her justice from the court system, quite the opposite. But, she did something else that many assume is a sign of “being healed”, she found her voice. She told her story, she had a movie made where she could speak her truth to the whole world. Surely, that is healed, right?

    As we now know, that probably wasn’t the case. I assume that many people who watched that documentary went on to become fans of Daisy, admiring her for having the courage to tell her story, happy for her that she was able to overcome, but that had nothing to do with the reality of what surviving actually is.

    The coincidence that I spoke of came this morning, when I popped over to Twitter during a quick coffee break, and saw Rachel Denhollander, another survivor who’s made an appearance in a documentary, Athlete A, on her involvement with the Larry Nasser case, talking about this article:
