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.
This is going off a post I read on the NEW page, and have been wanting to bring up for awhile- RE: losing friends from all of this shite that's gone on the past couple of years.
Admittedly, most, if not all, of my friends are Conservatives. At my last job, I became friends with a lady and we were friends after she found another job. Up until last year, we used to share memes and text almost daily and talking about Salty. She brought her kids over to play with my son one day and told me she got the "vaccine" because her mom was ill and she wanted to be able to spend time with her. She knew what I thought about it, and since then, we've drifted apart. If I send her a text, she sends a one word response. She asks how we are, but I think she thinks she's texting someone else because our conversations kind of stop abruptly.
Anyway, I have lost a friend that I never expected to. We only knew each other about 3 years, and we don't work together anymore or even live in the same town. I guess we were together as long as God needed us to be. I think that's why I spend so much time on here- I have no one in real life to talk to about this stuff anymore. Though, I do surprise my husband with what I know and at how much I've been red-pilled. He grew up with more cynical parents than mine were, so he naturally questioned things more than I did. He's opened my eyes on a lot of stuff.
If you made it this far, thanks. I've been needing to get that off my chest for awhile.
I’m sorry about that. People will let you down, even if they don’t do it intentionally. It’s just me and my four legged children as well here. I have family close by. We all live within a 3 mile radius of each other. But no one is as involved with all of this as I am, so therefore I don’t have anyone to get into deep conversations with about it. So that’s why I would rather spend my time alone reading GA, and videos and following the ones I trust. I occasionally reread Q drops so that I don’t forget what we are living through right now. Occasionally a friend calls and ask me to explain what is happening. So I guess I am the information board, lol. Just keep in mind that it’s nice to be here with like minded people that are sane. The phrase WWG1WGA is very true.
Looks like we're all in this madlad group together! ;)
Yes ma’am we surely are. And that’s a wonderful thing.
I'm sorry you're going through this. It sucks when friends kind of drift because you don't really know if you've done anything wrong or offended them in some way and therefore don't know how to fix it. Feel free to msg if ever you need to chat. Hope you're having a good day otherwise.
You're very kind! I think it helps that I don't get super involved with people as I have a bit of separation anxiety. I've developed a level of self-preservation thanks to it. ;)
You sound a bit like me , I don't really bother with people too much ,spend more time with my animals. How is that garden going?
I'm sitting having my morning coffee and watching some magpies that are flying in and pinching the dog biscuits off my verandah. They're very smart birds.
We've had a lot of rain and the tomatoes' flesh grew faster than the skin and they split around the stems. Should be fine. Our green bell peppers have been growing like gangbusters!
I'd love to have a magpie or crow visit me! I really like birds (save harpie owls! eeesh!). You're in Australia?
I've "lost" a couple others who I've known for decades, both of whom have called me "socially irresponsible" (either directly or on a roundabout way) because of my refusal to get the jab. I get the cold shoulder like you do. Another I shoved out when they went full commie, this after refusing to read any information I sent because "partisan sources". I'll be happy to accept their apologies if they ever wake up and I still pray for their safety and health, but I'm okay with the rift. I'm actually glad that God shook this world to such an extent in this manner because He's laid bare things I never could have seen otherwise.
The underlying issue here is that all individuals are terrified of this "killer virus". Please understand also that these people are very susceptible to mockingbird programming. I'm one of those people who periodically wades into the cesspool of fake news (though admittedly less than I did prior) to better understand what's being put out there that the sheep are being told. Your (former) friend and mine (and countless other anon's) are being fed a constant diet of fear mixed in carefully with ego-boosting and "virtue"-boosting. They're immediately accepted into a "club" of "socially responsible", "caring", "more intelligent" folks just like them who dutifully get their jabs "to keep everyone safe".
If that were all, the DS couldn't get people to separate so much. These sheep are TOLD to push the "unvaxed" out of their lives, that it's dangerous to be around us, that we're selfish and jeopardizing their health and need to be marginalized and ostracized. Your friend's cold shoulder attitude comes from this. Sometimes I feel this is a Prodigal Son exercise - that if these sheep ever come to their senses and return to us, we're to take them back.
My friend said her mom, who was ill, took the shot because Trump said it was fine to take. My friend wanted to protect her mom and took it. I don't like that they bought into it. My friend and I used to even talk about Q and she gave up on it after January 6th because "nothing he said happened..." I was still learning a lot of it then, but told her to have faith.
Oh, well, I guess. I have you lot, eh? ;)
I have a cousin who did the same (on Trump's assurance) and subsequently has balance issues. Her doc actually told her it's due to the jabs so at least she won't be taking any more of them (and neither will her family).
You're lucky in that most of your friends are conservatives. Most of my friends are and always have been democrats though before the last couple years we could generally agree on the lion's share of issues. I don't discuss Q with anyone but anons. The date-fagging actually served to toughen me up mentally and put things in a better perspective after getting over those initial disappointments.
I've been telling myself that, going forward, I'll only add AF conservatives to my social circle, but I fear this may not be entirely by choice. The jab-embracing folks I know or know of have been getting sick with all sorts of health issues including cancers, shingles, neurological problems, heart attacks and even dropping dead.
Thank God for the faith He's instilled in us to walk through the storm with Him - and for this platform to connect with kind-hearted anons, yes.
You can write and talk to me anytime you need. Hold on to God and he will guide you.
I truly appreciate that! My walk with God has gotten closer and stronger in the past couple of years. I follow along with my church's Bible reading plan and partake daily, even if I can't keep all the kings' names straight (so many!). It's helped a lot. I read a devotional on top of that. He's the ultimate!
Amen.
