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.
Anybody have any idea when we're supposed to hear the judge's opinion in the Kari Lake trial? He seemed to indicate it might be today.

Oh, thank you so much.
"Oh, Christmas. Where Winter shall say, 'And me? I will make them happy!" ~ Kim Clement
My brother and I were talking today about Christmas and Washington crossing the Delaware. I feel something is happening amidst all the bad weather coming in. I miss Kim so much, but I’m sure he is quite happy where he is. 🎄🙏🏻
Titles like , (economy grew more than we thought in November), or (consumer confidence is strong) are coming from wall Street. Stock market is collapsing, stock up on dry goods now. They will lie to you to the end.
When the mainstream tells us how great the economy is, thats when I get most scared.
It is supposed to be colder than a Titches Wit here in Texas, and I am a new backyard chicken owner. I put them in their tiny coop, but I'm still nervous. I went and bought some cloth/waterproof shower curtains at a local thrift store to put on the end of the coup that is just made of chicken wire to help block the winds. I'm told they will be fine, but I just need some peace of mind. I got them in the summer and they managed well despite the Texas heat, but this will be their first hard freeze. I am hoping they have enough sense to stay in the enclosed part of the coup and snuggle up together.
Heat lamps are helpful at this time.
Straw is warm for bedding if you can get some. I've got the opposite trying to keep them cool in the heat we have at the moment.
You are a good chicken rancher. 😉
I'm in New England and it's been down in the high teens a couple times. I've had chickens for 12 years and never had a problem with the cold. I have a wooden coop with just one opening for them to get to their outside pen so it's not drafty. They will snuggle together and squat down on their perch to keep their feet warm.
Only problem up here is when their water freezes. I have a dedicated power line and a heated water trough that turns on when it drops below 40°F. They don't eat or drink at night so it's okay to bring those in at night if you wish.
They should fine as long as theres a place away from the wind, even cardboard and the shower curtains will do. It gets terrible cold up here but I dont worry until its a lot of 0 and below days and nights in a row. I have large dog kennels in my basement, but I only have 17 hens so it isn't crazy. Or maybe it is, cluck em if they judge me.
Chickens don't judge...they are very loving!
Time to head over the river and through the woods.
Wishing all you patriots a very Merry Christmas alongside those you love.
Merry Christmas Blessings to All! 🙏🎄

love this guy. .doesn't pull any punches this is discussing the concept of stilling the mind popular in the east.
There is a difference between the chattering monkey mind .and inner conflict to a mind where the heart and head are in agreement so inner conflict is finished..
Krishnamurti had A very analytic mind . To examine your own motives in what you are doing I can recommend his method of thinking to free yourself from the brainwashing. we are taught at school etc and society..
He was picked up as a young boy from a beach in India by people who were set on a new world order and wanted a new religion.a king of the world these wealthy people went on to start the UN
In his early twenties krishnamurti walked away from his vast wealth and estates in different countries saying truth is a pathless land and renounced all the trappings. He used to do talks teaching people how to use thinking to self examination of their life and why they fail to achieve happiness
An unexamined life is a worthless life. If your left brain is intent on succeeding in life ..amassing power wealth and acclaim and your right brain wants to express itself my being a musician or a painter there will be conflict in your head balance of right and left brain is key to peace

Very interesting article I would like a word with Julian!!
Looking through the local "What's On" guide I came across this:
Axe throwing Ridgeway Adventures
Learn to throw axes at Oxfordshires only year round Axe throwing range!
Something for everyone!
My daughter can throw an axe pretty well. When she joined the company that she was in several years ago, they actually went for an axe throwing contests. Her, and her boss won. Lol. We do have Scandinavian Viking in our blood so there’s that. Lol.
Lol @ something for everyone.
Like Ebay: catering for all tastes and none.
I want a tank ..more effective than an axe,!
I think its to release the inner Viking in people :)
Heard one woman in supermarket today saying oh no .no turkeys left. Why do people behave this way .
My xmas order that I booked in advance from Asda was delivered today. I ordered this as I was assured I would get all of it.
Guess what? No Turkey!
A happy Christmas to all of Gods children, especially those who don't believe God exists.
I remember an incident in Waitrose when two elderly women fought over the last one with their handbags. Madness, hate xmas.
Me too, long time Ebeneezer…
Saw it with toilet rolls 😁
Hey, has anyone seen anything for the Word Nerd recently?
Cannot recall that anons handle, but he often signed things as the word nerd. That anons was chill.
haven't seen anything from him/her for yonks.
Haha, I haven't heard anybody use yonks in ... well, yonks.
There are a few others I haven't seen in a while as well.
Nope, but dead set mate, the sceptic tanks won't get the yonks part, fair dink!
Yonks = donkey's years. Not sure what you mean by sceptic tanks though.
I'm afraid you are correct, sir.
WTF is this bill that just passed? 410 mil to other countries? 200mil to Gender Equality in Pakistan? Actually, why the fuck is Mitch McConnel's lips so damn dark? Gonna start calling him Goth Turtle.
“why the fuck is Mitch McConnel's lips so damn dark?”
Supposedly, Bitch McConnell was in the Capitol drinking from a strange flask and was heard reciting “It is by will alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the juice of sapho that thoughts acquire speed, the lips acquire stains, the stains become a warning. It is by will alone I set my mind in motion."
Its their final money grab. Also Fed needs to issue a certain amount of debt before the implosion can happen. This is just accelerating it.
Heart disease does that if they are looking purple
My own keto Christmas cookies recipe
Ingredients
👉🏻 Mix everything together, let it harden in the fridge, then put it in small silicone moulds and cook at 150 degrees Celsius until it browns. Let cool and dry at room temperature. Enjoy with tea and homemade quince paste.
Sounds delish. Thanks!
Thanks for mentioning erythritol, I did not know that existed. Happy Xmas.
Erythritol tastes exactly like white sugar , except that it lasts only a few seconds in the mouth, unlike sugar taste which may remain for 10-15 seconds. It’s much less nauseating.
Sounds divine
No, but the reason is he actually lives at my house throughout the year. So we hang out pretty much most of the time anyway. But he’s super busy this time of year, so I haven’t got to talk to him much.
This can not be a serious question. What sort of maniac doesn't leave Santa milk and cookies?? It's his favorite snack. Plus carrots for the reindeer, of course.
Not sure. This will be the first year it's relevant in our household!
Answer: probably. Even though Santa is a type 1 diabetic. 😁 I really like another pede's idea of leaving a note from Santa. Going to steal it. 👍
When my son was little, yes, we would also leave carrots for the reindeer. The dog usually took care of the cookies during the night, and I would take a few bites off the carrot.
Sweet traditions! I always did when I was a child and Mama and Daddy ate them, but not all of the carrots! 🍶🍪
Only if there were children.
