Network Troubles

Just wanted to get a post out to address a couple of things that have come up now that a few folks have started wandering in to the Survivors Network site.

First off, if you try to register and never get the email confirmation, please check your spam filters and see if it’s getting filtered. If you still are unable to locate it, drop me a line with the username you want to use, and an email account to send the login information to.

Secondly, yes, you have to enter both a username, and a name when you register. (It’s a function of the software that I cannot change, and there are some logical reasons for it..) No, it doesn’t have to be your real name if you don’t want to use your real name. However, if you do, feel free to. Also, yes I need you to enter a real email address, but I am the only one who will see that. In the future, there may be other site admins who would have access to it as well, but it will never be public unless you choose to make it public.

Once you’ve gotten registered, feel free to join the different groups, or form a new one. That’s where the discussion forums come into play, within the groups. If you have any problems, feel free to join the Network Help group and post a message there. I do check it fairly often for new messages.

    Trust Issues

    I was having a conversation recently about relationships with someone who travels as part of their job, like I do. One of the big things that we agreed upon is that being in a relationship with someone who you will wind up spending a lot of time apart from, requires more trust than many people…

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

    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:

    Friends are God’s way of apologizing for your family

    This is a quote from Dr. Wayne Dyer that I saw someone share on Twitter earlier today, and it got me thinking about abuse survivors, especially those of us who were abused within the family unit. On one hand, speaking from my own experience with the friendships I’ve developed over the years, I can honestly…

  • Blogroll Updates

    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…
