Do you know if there's anything that can get around the stupid automod filters?

reveddit is a damn useful tool. I've lost count of the number of comments that have been removed that I would not have known about otherwise. And 90% of them have been by automod for no reason whatsoever.

Given how prevalent fertility issues and miscarriage actually are, do you think it's possible to normalise discussion about it to better support those going through it, and help them realise that for the majority, it's not their fault?

G'day Brother, ex-strayan lighting guy here. My bread and butter was concerts, theatre and corporate, but I did also do movies, ads and tv.

I've heard all sorts of stuff about the union situation over there, and I'm wondering what it's really like. I read your replies about getting into the unions, but is things like job demarcation REALLY that bad?

Over here, everyone gets in and does the job. We concentrate on our own thing, but we're happy to lend a hand. On Ads, lighting and grips regularly work together, and lighting will have a fair bit of grip equipment. Board operators will pull cables and help pack down at the end. So is it really the case that a board operator does nothing but? A lighting guy gets his arse kicked if he dares to touch a c stand?

I know that David Attenborough has been knighted, and has had all sorts of industry accolades and other honours, but I keep feeling that more should be done to show just how much his work means to the people of the world.

He's a presenter that transcends generations, and nobody can see any kind of wildlife footage without having his voice in their head.

How would you suggest that the people of the world can show him just how much he means to us all?
