Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an intergral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on it's evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.

In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I watched the news on ABC and regreted it after 5 min.
It was a story about Snow Skiers that are black. THAT is not the problem. Who cares what color...... The problem is that the newscaster stated this, "89% of the Skiers at this resort IDENTIFY as white."
How in the Hell do you IDENTIFY as white? IS this EVER going to END? Are we going to be able to live on this earth without all this crap???
Just Venting.
Love you friend. Other than the news...how was your day. God bless
I am good! Thank you! It was a productive day. I was able to get 18 of my ebay orders shipped out. Worked in my greenhouse for a bit, played with my dogs, changed out the cat bed (she FINALLY had her kittens two days ago).
God Bless you too!! :-)
I identify as wealthy, I'm a rich person born in a poor person's body. Donate to me, the struggle is real. I'm trans-financial!
Hahahahahaha HA HA HA HA HA HA HAAAA HAAA!! Now THAT is funny!
hahah.
Over the weekend I found myself in a situation where I did not have access to my computer but had access to a TV. (I haven't watched a TV for years now, and I never watch "news" on TV.)
So I thought, what the heck, and watched the news. Mostly the BBC or something. I actually enjoyed how much everything I saw just appeared to me as completely propaganda, and I could not actually stop myself from thinking about what they are trying to sell me on, and how they are trying to manipulate me.
And, I didn't mind it, because I felt like I was totally looking through the matrix. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pYyzolIN3I)
I noticed two things: either they are trying to program me with <story> or they are trying to distract me with <story>.
I watched a story about a bad, bad security man at some UK building who sold information to bad, bad Russian agent. I laughed. Clearly, Russia Bad narrative agenda.
I also watched some lame puppy rescue story or such. So insipid, as if doing a puppy rescue is the pinnacle of virtue and human life. (no disrespect to puppies or those who actually rescue them, but what is presented as 'pinnacle virtue' is so flippin stupid....) Clearly, distract + condition agenda.
A few years back (2 or 3) I could not stand to watch or listen to corporate and lamestream media. I hated it. It felt so toxic and noxious. But now, I wonder if I'm cured. I just sat there and reflected on WHY they were pumping out what they were pumping out, and never for even half a second could I take them in any way serious.
It's sad that so many still consume their nonsense, but I do believe (would like to believe) their influence and power is waning, day by day.
I agree. I have a T.V., but i have Roku. I usually have it on music, but at this point, even some of that irritates me. k I detest the puppy commercials etc. They always have some sad looking puppy or dog on there that is there as if to say, "Give me money," which he will see none of it. Everytime I have the TV on and I hear the commercials, I think about the move WALL E. I am convinced that they (movies) tell us exactly what they are doing in real life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1BQPV-iCkU
I have one sitting on my porch right now. I do not know what to do with it.
Good Idea! I can put a picture of Biden on it for target practice!
It's hard for a baby to push away the teat that is delivering that sweet, comforting milk just because it gives you a cheek rash. If it's all you know, you just accept it.
Its going to end when even the flakiest of the libtards get sick and tired because this shit keeps attacking everyone one way or another.
My dad has finally decided he will take ivermectin. We use the horse paste around here. Does anyone here have advice or experience taking it while on a lot of prescriptions? He has very high Blood pressure, history of stroke, anxiety, high cholesterol, pretty much everything you could imagine he takes meds for. Safe or not safe?
I took it. I am on levothyroxine for Thyroid, Cymbalta for Anxiety, Metoprolol for BP. and I take a lot of Vitamins etc. I got the horse shot ivermectin from someone and I just put some in a shot glass and drank it. I have been fine. I have taken it three times a day when I was sick.
Thank you, for your response!
The only warning I’ve notice was not to use if taking blood thinners. If your dad had a stroke, there’s a good chance he’s on one.
Thanks, I will check on that.

In the future, Allbtje long standing members of the Great Awakening can count on me always being there for them. That includes going out for lunch with everyone multiples times.

🙏Prayer Garden Podcast Episode 8: Shelly Daye🙏 https://youtu.be/4jrQa465wIo
On this episode we speak with my sister in Christ, Shelly Daye. Shelly and I met through one of my church's small groups. We hear Shelly's powerful childhood story and how that lead up to her moment in meeting Jesus. We discuss how the enemy likes to plant lies in your mind from past trauma and how Christ has the authority to overcome those lies against you. God holds the ultimate power to healing and declaring His truth over yourself will set you free. Thank you for tuning in! Together through Christ we have endless potential.
Best: the pie I am eating. Worst: the one I am too full to eat.

Awesome!
😁
Grasshopper pie!!!!
Worst is the Meringue on top of any pie.
<ahem>
In the Great Southern Land of the Holy Spirit (Terra Australis), "pie" pretty much means one thing and one thing only.
Meat pies are one of our national dishes. Generally eaten at footy games (in the winter), other sporting events, and on the go.
The American concept of pie doesn't really exist here, except in the form of an "apple pie", which is understood to be a desert. All those other forms of pie are decidedly uncommon. Oh, you could find some of them, but they are not a core part of our cuisine culture by any means. The idea of "pumpkin pie" just seems bizarre.
Our pies descend from the British tradition. It is a meal in itself, self-contained. A sort of meaty stew contained in a shell of flakey pastry, which keeps it dry on the outside and makes it possible to eat this with one hand, or without a plate or other utensils.
"The Great Australian Pie" is an understood trope. We most commonly eat them with "tomato sauce" which is an Australian version of what some would call "ketchup".
Like certain other concepts, "pie" thus has a very different meaning and locus within the Australia lexicon, as compared to the US variety of 'English'.
While the meat pie is perhaps one of our most ubiquitous 'fast foods', it is notably NOT borrowed from American fast food culture (as many if not most of our other 'fast foods' are (sadly, cos they are crap)). Other Australian 'fast foods' include "fish and chips" and attenuated varieties, such as dim sims, spring rolls, potato cakes, etc.
A good handmade pie is actually good food, fit for the quick main meal.
And now you know. So if you ever visit down under, you should definitely avail yourself of this culinary experience. But certainly, in all other locations (nations) avoid it at all costs, unless, possibly, you are in the UK.
</ahem>
Ohhh I love pie…. Favorite pecan or pumpkin. Idk about worst maybe just the merengue on a pie
All this epicurean chat always makes me feel like such a savage. I have no favorite pie, nor least favorite. If it counts, any "pot pie" I'm no fan of, but I'll enjoy any sweet pie I can think of.
Bonus answer, since she is a foodie tho not on GAW - wife's favorite is Pumpkin, by a mile. Think she dislikes lemon merengue.
Hard to beat this one. Lol.
So, what today’s Putin’s speech will be about?

Lol, nice try!
Do they own their home? Is this home fully paid off? What is the current value of this home? Is the debt mentioned their only debt?
As you mentioned,you can inherent debt, but you need to be certain of this.
$50,000.00 isn't a huge debt, but in your position if would appear to be quite large and potentially very damaging.
One obvious option would be for your parents to take out a reverse mortgage on the property if they can.
Try to keep calm and explore options to resolve the situation.
Best regards and best wishes for the difficult situation you are in,fren. Don't dispare and try to stay positive.
How does the debt come to your after they pass away? I would focus on that. Whatever loop holes there are that allows this kind of debt inheritence, you should target it and try and close them.
Alternatives - do your parents depend on you? Sit them down and tell them that it is NOT acceptable to saddle you with all this debt that you didnt ask for. Make it clear that solving this finacial crisis is far more important than whatever they think and feel.
Does this mean bankruptcy? Letting the repo man come and take away everything? Defaulting? Its FINE. None of these matter in the long run but getting saddled with this debt will matter.
First, make it clear this is your priority and there is NO negotiating there. Talk to a lawyer first and foremost.
Second, make it clear that you will do everything you can to make this happen.
Third, Start disposing any of the property that belongs to you jointly, to start taking care of the debt. This is more to show you are serious.
If they are dependant on you, tell them good bye so long take care and move on to build your own life.
You cannot have your cake and eat it too. You cannot keep enabling these people AND want to do have a free life.
Some one said that their parents took 50K debt, and it was going to pass on to him when they die, and he didn't know what to do and was asking for advice.
I don’t think credit card debt goes to kids? I could be wrong?
My dad had an ambulance bill over 3K for a short ride to the hospital and the ambulance company said his medicare/united healthcare would not cover it. I told them he is now in hospice (94 years old) and I would be willing to pay them what medicare would have paid ($1200). They said no, wanted the full amount. I told them it is their choice as after he passes they will get nothing and have to write it off. He passed away, and they got nothing. Of course we had bypassed probate.
Big medicine needs to go. I don’t see how local taxes wouldn’t be able to provide an ambulance service to residents. So much corruption it’s sickening
How do the recent revelations of CCP balloons, and hundreds of other unidentified flying objects inside US airspace over the last 20+ years relate to the possibility that chem trails may be a whole hell of lot worse than anyone could have imagined before?
Strange that you forgot to speculate about the possibility that the USA may have been getting sprayed by air dropped commie poison for decades.
I’d imagine it’s been decades, except I think the commies dropping the poison, and perfecting the poison sprays consist of elements within US govt/mil/science
This was the second major redpill of my life. I couldn't understand how many eyes were blind to what happens right above them every day!
One thing is absolutely for sure, if the programs were for our "benefit" MSM would be shouting it from the rooftops. Instead, crickets and denial.
There are some that have organized and brought awareness to the topic (in addition to geoengineeringwatch.org), but I don't think they were able to force change. It is my observation that heavily sprayed areas, heavily burn later.
What ideas do you have?
MSM has been very silent
But it’s very telling who’s coming out and supporting “global dimming” projects and other geo-eng ventures.
Pretty obvious they are now trying to normalize what they’ve already been doing for 30+ years with weather warfare and playing God.
