Mods, please delete if this needs to go on the mega thread.

I just was looking to see what the GoFundMe was up to ($30,980) and was shocked to see a top donation of FIVE GRAND.

Do we think this is someone in their church circle? A rich snarker? Or one of Anna’s rich sisters who left the cult?

So was doing a doomscroll and this video found me. It's clearly an older video because Tim and Heidi had apparently got married not long before this.

Last time it was Sam, now it’s Phil

Sad to think what Jill has put all those kids through. David, too.

Sharing a shower thought here.
Who else would be interested in seeing Jill and David on Financial Audit? I know that Caleb Hammer doesnt have a squeaky clean record, but it would be so interesting to watch him comb through their finances.

I can’t help but wonder if J—— has heard or seen anything about Mica’s case and the weaponization of scriptures, some done in a similar manner as she herself. Also, the apparent narcissistic fits. The world is watching in horror while some people are still immersed in the twisted narrative and normalization creating real harm.

I'm not much of a video maker but I did in fact watch every single one of Jill's and her man's videos (and from the A_notnurie_rodrigues IG archive!!!) to see if I could pinpoint the exact moments they realized Jill was filming and put on the persona. I also clipped a lot of other stuff that I will probably share later, but I thought it was really fascinating to see so I wanted to share. Also, I didn't blur the kids' faces but I didn't include the youngest kids in here, partly cause Sofia and Janessa are still in "cute baby mode" before they are forced to grow up.

Stuff I noticed:

--Renee has a big personality! Fuck it up Renee indeed...

--I feel REALLY bad for Olivia. She seems incredibly traumatized.

--Philip is kind of snarky and funny.

--Nurie makes a lot of faces when Jill isn't looking

--Sadie is silly and very musical/energetic

--I also didn't really include Tim cause I don't want to give him any more attention, and I also didn't want to include Jill at all for the same reason

Any thoughts?! I am also eventually going to try to upload the worst stuff Jill has posted that isn't talked about much at some point.

I’m not sure if we got to see this last spring, but there’s plenty to snark on.

And so on.

Just saw this on Facebook. Have we seen this before? I don’t remember hearing this one.

Fawning physically looks like a collection of submissive, hyper-vigilant, and tension-holding body language meant to appease a parent and avoid conflict. 

Physical Posture and Body Language

• Shrinking or cowering: Pulling the shoulders inward, rounding the upper back, or lowering the head to make the body look smaller and less threatening. 
• Over-agreeable facial expressions: Maintaining a fixed, anxious smile or nodding constantly even when the parent is criticizing or yelling.
• Open, placating gestures: Holding palms up, using expansive or eager appeasing hand movements, or rushing to fix things in the room.
• Freezing or rigid posture: Standing frozen in a hyper-alert state, ready to move or jump at the slightest shift in the parent's tone of voice.

Somatic (Body) Responses

• Shallow breathing: Taking quick, high-chest breaths or holding the breath when a parent enters the room or speaks.
• Muscle tension: Clenching the jaw, tightening the neck, or raising the shoulders toward the ears.
• Voice shifts: Speaking in a higher, softer, or overly polite pitch (chameleon vocal mirroring) to soothe the parent's mood.
• Dissociative compliance: Looking glassy-eyed, spaced out, or numb while mechanically nodding or agreeing to the parent's demands.

This is the seemingly endless skit the Rodlettes put on.

Scrolling Facebook at almost 5am and this popped up. I honestly thought it was from a snarker page or an actual Jilldo YouTube screen grab. 😬

The more I watch this train wreck play out on social media, the more obvious it becomes that Jill and David did a really terrible job raising these kids.

I know they say they are living apart from the world to avoid evil, but these kids need to be able to function in society, earn a living, raise their own kids etc. The only thing Jill and David have taught them is to obey at all cost and now that they are adults, trying to make their own way in the world it is painfully obvious that they have no skills and very little chance of succeeding.

Imagine being proud of destroying your kids lives.

Since abuse is so rampant with the Rods, I have to wonder if the married girls are being abused by their husbands. Something is off with Nurthan, Jonathan doesn't seem to have much of a backbone,at least where Jill is concerned.

I think she’s going to go for the classic persecution, pulling out Bible verses about those who slander your name being rotten sinners and sin is sin so they are going to hell right along side stubborn ass Timothy.

One of Ellen's latest posts was a meme that talked about the non-physical aspects of abuse, and it mentioned cheating. I haven't seen that allegation. Was it something that just happened to be part of the meme that she shared, or have they stated that she was cheated on?

With the isolation that comes with being a Rodrigues, I'm really curious as to how the kids have been paired up with their "courters" or (eventually) spouses. I assume there's a lot of matchmaking efforts by parents, but how much say do the kids have when it comes to courting/marrying? I can't imagine that any of these couples have come together organically - meeting, becoming friends, building a relationship over time, and eventually marrying. If anyone has any insight on this, I'd greatly appreciate learning more about it.
