If I’m not mistaken, there is a chat feature here and your user name + @Substack...etc. is the address to use it? Not everyone will just put their email ‘out there’ on these enterwebs and for each of you Daddies whom has, my heart says “Aw!”

There are several ways to submit. Substack got the first dibs because these are subscribers that we manually added. Nobody can see these threads outside of our subscriber base. The most secure platform we have at the moment.

Oh no! Should I have not shared or does someone following the thread come to a subscription wall? I should have shared with you in the first place - I’m endeavoring to make it a habit, whether good or bad, to inform others when I speak of them or use their stacks for my own content.

My cousin suffered parental alienation (‘alien’ is so right!! Dealing with that shit was like walking around on freaking Mars! How in Hell can a sweet, cheerful voice saying “Did you have a nice time?” be a heavy threat? How did she do that? It’s been years and the clot shot took him Home but the whole damned World just skewed remembering her asking that AWFUL, TERRIFYING question!) so, I feel as though I have some skin in the game.

I did suggest that Dads use the time wisely and that even if their children did not see it this year, the day will come when seeing it archived will mean the World to them. “Don’t trash talk anyone and make it about the kids”. I have a whopping 37 subscribers so it’s not like many will see it but I do think it’s a great idea and were my cousin still alive today, his email would definitely be included. His 3 minutes would have made everyone laugh and feel loved, and I do mean everyone!

Why can’t I figure this danged thing out? The app sucks except for catching notifications but now I’m not getting the option to make a note with a quote and the link…. Grrrrr. When it’s easy, it’s a breeze. Otherwise, hmm.

They definitely have some work to do on it. But the premise of it is a great platform and I believe it will only get better.

I just watched your latest video. I tried to comment but hit the paywall so I’ll comment here, copy and paste if you like.

‘I Want To Go With Dad - The Family Court Nightmare of Caleb Leverett (Mini Documentary)’ is exceptionally well done! The name Leverett rang a bell but I couldn’t quite recall… the image of the car window and it all came crashing back from 10 years ago! An infuriating, confusing situation was brought to mind, unfortunately a situation which escalated injustice, cruelty and an abuse of human rights, yet another travesty of ‘Child Welfare’! A situation that despite this man’s bravery exposing the deep fissures in and criminality of ‘The System’ continues, and has every day over the past 10 years. It is a bit of a cliff hanger and I do hope further installments will be released very soon.

CPS is child trafficking. “Well” as in a bottomless pit. “Fare” as in monetary fees and charges. And it’s “safe and effective”, right.

The other comment I hoped to make will not be popular, I imagine but here goes: in a household with a toddler, everyone needs to refer to the mother as ‘Mommy’ and father as ‘Daddy’ WHEN THE TODDLER IS PRESENT. So I do understand her using the term ‘Daddy’. It’s Hell if the kid gets Martha or George in their head!

I also put out a Substack called ‘Keeper Comments 5’ I believe? It addresses subscriber fees. You may want to give it a quick scan? Again, great mini-documentary and I do hope there is more to come?

I made a note, I think? Or restacked or something?, quoting your basic mission and linking this stack. Good luck! I’m looking forward to seeing it!
