What is this thread all about?
Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
Day by day I'm rewiring myself to a life without alcohol and all the mental and physical problems that came with it. In such strange times, it's definitely a relief to have my anxiety and depression under more control. When I was drowning sometimes it was easy to just wanna give up. But... can't sleep now, the future needs me.
Keep up the good work!
the most apolitical topic-dogs. I have always owned English Shepherd dogs (farm collies) since 1978.They are my heart, my guardians, helpers on the homestead, protecting ducks and chickens and small things that were my sons pets.Dont let a critter come around though, they would be attacked.They are also amazing watch dogs and guard dogs, would die for you if a person or animal attacked you. They are 100% heart and dog. I am 72 though, and I would not be strong enough to give them the life they need, and, the energy it takes to balance a dog that was bred to be aggressive (they are an American land race breed that were used to drive stock, not herd, and to protect property and livestock). You dont breed the bravery out of a dog meant to handle and control 830 lb cows, get then into a truck, and refuse to accept no for an answer. So, I got a pup that is 100% bird dog, a gun dog, a hunter. Smart, defiant, goofy, non aggresive or reactive, now don't laugh, its a Field Springer Spaniel Poodle cross. I am not used to hunting dogs, people keep telling me they are smart, but i say its the devil that makes them smart. Good energy, okay recall at 41/2 months. Almost pee trained as long as he is confined in my room all night and times during they day , but most times will crap on the floor if he goes out with my old sheppie in the morning, will wait to come in and do it. Also he is a coward and I am used to those sheppies flanking you and not let anything near you. I went out with the pup and the goats were right behind me, and he flew off way ahead of me, while she would make sure they kept their distance from me (she hates them, lol). He is hyper af, bounces off the wall. People who own hunters and gun dogs, please, tell me it will stop.
So, I don't usually buy lottery tickets, but I might have to make an exception this time... Mega Millions estimated jackpot is 1.7 billion this time. There is just something about that 1.7 that sounds good to me!
Thanks for telling me. I guess I don't need to go get a ticket after all. Kek.
G’luck x 17, hope you win!!! :)
Thanks. If I do I plan on helping out a few pedes. Gotta share some of that 17 love! WWG1WGA
That’s so generous of you. If I were living in the US, I would purchase a few myself. Using that money, maybe purchase a whole city and get all the pepes to live there. Haha now I am in lala land.
I'm right there with you! I smiled when I heard it announced on tv this morning. My first thought was that there are so many here on GAW that could not only use the help but could appreciate the 17 reference! Even if I don't win I sure hope another pepe does! :)

Nostalgia.
I remember many of these.
I seldom watch TV but decided to watch a film..mission impossible...I was laughing at Tom cruise saying how we should thank the IMF!!!!for all it does.....now you know why they like us to watch movies!
https://youtu.be/FVvtfiTQ1pM. This is a very interesting talk by David Straight....he lost his businesses his properties his considerable bank accounts due to government fraud. Now his goal in life once he realised how it happened to him is to educate everyone he can
Start with your family...as you signed the documents presented to you after the birth of your child did you realise you signed the child over to the state? Yes you did....the state now owns your child. Like your car...you signed a driver's license and then the car became the property of the government....you are the keeper of the car only .go and look..and your name is in capital letters means something else......you are not who you think you are..you think you own your mortgage paid house? Anything? Klaus already owns everything you have...that's the joke....
Thank you. Saved the link.
Hoping someone might have some advice for me.
I'm disabled and unable to work a decent job, so I fall back on being an artist. Finding work has been next to impossible. Clients I relied on have disappeared and now my family and I are barely able to stay afloat. We've almost depleted my savings, and now I'm in a bind.
I decided to make an anime styled printable paper doll in an attempt to generate some passive income while I continue trying to get new clients or other art related jobs, but no one is viewing my Etsy listing.
Does anyone know a way I can get it in front of more eyes (without having to pay for advertising) so maybe some people would actually buy it?
I have full faith in the plan and that things will get better, but I'm terrified of my family losing everything after we just recovered from losing our home a few years ago. We escaped homelessness by the skin of our teeth and the grace of God. We love our home and don't want to lose it. We've cut everything we can.
Any advice would be so greatly appreciated.
Yes, I used to do that and ran into the same issue of vast under exposure. I spread myself very thin trying to post to as many outlets as possible and it never got me anywhere. The market, and my area of work in particular, are extremely over saturated. I'm trying to build myself up into trying it again, but it's a lot of work for very little reward.
I'd love to design some Pepe merch! Pretty sure I can't advertise it in here, but I'm going to give that a whirl. Thanks for the idea :D I've been wanting to do Patriot themed merch as well, but I don't want to profit off of this movement necessarily, and that seems like skirting the line.
99designs does freelance artwork. Have you tried that?
Thank you very much for the suggestion! I have looked into that, and that's not at all my area of expertise. I'm more for character design, character art, and semi-realistic portraits at best.
I don't fully grasp the NFT concept, but it appears to be a way for artists to essentially manage their own works. May be something to look into, Gamestop just launched their NFT marketplace.
Not for work per say, but may be able to monetize your artwork and make some passive income.
lol I've tried repeatedly to understand NFTs and just can't grasp it or how I would go about creating a successful one.
I know people don’t like these platforms that I’m going to mention, but it could help you with selling your art.
YouTube. Go to YouTube channel, and start posting short videos of what you do.
Rumble. Do the same one rumble.
Facebook. Do the same on Facebook.
With a three above channels, what you do is join other channels that have similar interests as you. For instance… I started a nature video channel, so I got a YouTube channel and a Facebook channel. I then went and joined a bunch of other nature video type channels, or photography channels of nature and animals. By doing this, each time you post on your Facebook page it’ll go to all those channels, of whom which have lots of followers, then that information will go out to them. It’s a quick, easy, and affordable way to advertise your channel.
If you want it to be effective, you really have to stay on top of it though. Posting one video a week, would keep you relevant. With all of those channels, each video you need to make sure that you put links to your Etsy account, and any other way that people can purchase your products. I would suggest Instagram as well, but I think that’s for somebody who’s already has a decent following.
Another idea I had for my channel if that might work well for you, is making a calendar. I have some beautiful photographs of the nature videos that I make, and in November I will create a calendar, and I’ll be doing a more official launch of my channel and my brand at that time. The money raised with the calendars will go towards me being able to make more videos.
Since you are an artist, I’m sure you could come up with a great calendar, and also some type of theme for your calendar each year. There’s calendar apps, or software online, and the calendars are created by a company each time somebody orders one. You don’t have to have items in stock yourself, or mail them yourself. It’s all done automatically. I think the calendars run $20 a pop, and that’s with you making some type of profit.
Another idea would be to try a photo stock app, or company. You upload your photos, or your pictures, and people buy them to use them. Maybe it’s $3-$5 for each picture or photo. It may not be much, but if you start selling multiple copies of photos or pictures, I’m sure that moves you up in the algorithm of said Photo stock app.
These are just a few ideas, so you could stick with what you know, and what you love to do. There are many other ways people can make money online, or working from home. But I think your love for art, and what you do, makes it a more enjoyable living. It can be overwhelming at times, but if you just take one task, and do it to your best ability, then you move onto the next one. Before you know it, you’ll have a decent little side hustle, and you’ll start building your brand.
God bless you and I hope that you have a great day and that the Lord finds you successful within the next six months.
Thank you so, so much for the thoughtful and detailed reply.
I've actually had a Youtube channel in the past and it really didn't go too well. It was a huge amount of extra work and expense trying to get it off the ground and the amount of extra work required for each video never really paid off. I would like to attempt it again though.
A calendar is a really good idea. I'll explore that, thank you!
God bless you as well. Thank you so much for your kindness and encouragement. You're a beautiful person.
You are very welcome. Even if just one idea helps you out, then it was worth the time for my reply. God bless you and I pray that God will bless you and your future endeavors.
Are you able to sit at computer? It's not art, but I know someone who makes $16/hr. calling businesses for roof jobs. Maybe you could find something similar for the time being.
Thank you for the suggestion! I have no means of making phone calls but a job working from a computer would definitely be ideal. Finding one is the hard part. There are so many scams out there.
Saw an ad for a new animated series coming to FX on August 25. It's called "Little Demon." Here's the description:
It stars Danny Devito as satan and his real life daughter Lucy as the antichrist. Arnold Schwarzenegger is supposed to be in it some. It looks terrible. I doubt it will last long. Just seems like an odd show to make nowadays. Around 17 years ago there was an animated series with similar premise called "Lucy, Daughter of the Devil." It was low budget and campy with terrible acting which made it worth watching for its awfulness. This new show looks to lack any redeeming qualities.
Do they not realize how gay their agenda is? These people, deep down inside, have to realize that they can only lose in the end. Even atheists know that God is real, they just don't agree with Him.

And I shit you not as my dad put in the LAST SCREW the bottom fell out and it started raining so fucking hard!!!!!
I love all you beautiful people. Fuck Mike Pence, J6 was a peaceful demonstration with a bunch of Feds doing their thing 99% of which we removed before they could act(it would have been so much worse), fuck HRC & the gang, fuck the Feds, fuck corrupt police, fuck atheists & devil worshippers & misguided teachers of the law, fuck the CIA & their fake aliens, God bless the beautiful and loving Watchers, God bless the good vibes coming off our gift called Saturn, God bless our interdimensional friends, thank you God for loaning to each of us the beautiful Mercedes Benz that is the human body to reside in for however long we reside in it. Thanks be to God for this beautiful planet, for this beautiful energy, for this beautiful universe. From God we came to God we return, let us bless His name with our every breath and every thought. I love this fucking country and it is getting so much better with every act of you glorious faggots. Keep fighting keep getting stronger stay educated. Mental physical spiritual strength and let the Bible be your guide.
TRUST NO ONE. 😘
something as simple as this testimony could bring others to God. Ask and ye shall receive. It's true. It also happened to me, but I won't get into that. God not only answers prayers, he anticipates them. Often giving us what we ourselves have not quite figured out enough to pray for it. Happens all the time. And why? Because He loves us a million times more than a human can love us. I have proof. He is waiting at the door for you, but will never come in uninvited.
Amen. Pray.
