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 integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its 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.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
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
Just want to say thanks for this, general chat, topic. I have posted on it and found other members of this community to be very helpful. There are some knowledgeable people who come to this website and, for the most part, add value to it.
You are welcome, fren.
I agree. People are great here.
Glad to have u here with us fren. My name is Ryan (no need to share yours) feel free to reach out if u ever need prayer or a fren to vent to. We are in this together. Together through Christ we have endless potential. Love u. God WINS
What is supposed to be happening Monday?
Nothing. People are getting excited that the SVB collapse will bring down all the banks. There are still plenty of moves left, and my advice to Anons is to buckle up, dont expect anything to go down right now, but know that we are getting closer with every move.
If history is anything to go by, bank failures are lightning quick, and tend to happen in tandem with the weekend or a sudden "bank holiday".
Banks go bye bye
Ohhhhhh! Coooooooool.
Robert Kennedy Jr was born on the 17th of January, just bringing that up for no reason whatsoever.
thanks, have read a lot about RFK jr, but didn't realize that.
And to add to January 17...it's 711 mirrored;
George Washington's spy name was Agent 711...
https://www.mountvernon.org/george-washington/the-revolutionary-war/spying-and-espionage/george-washington-spymaster/
If this gives you a kick look at the following:
Princess Diana born July 1st (1/7 in British system where she was born)
JFK Jr Wife born Jan 7th (1/7 in US system where she was born)
Nikola Tesla born July 10th (10/7 in European system where he was born)
Nikola Tesla died Jan 7th (1/7 in US system where he died)
So the hospital said they are treating the Witch McConnell for a concussion, not that he HAS one. The treatment for concussion is rest, nothing.
What is his connection to the SVB collapse.... the timing is too much for them not to be a connection.
I wonder if he used it as cover to hop over to Ukraine or China to secure his finances....
Also, the January 6 footage coming out at the same time too. There’s definitely something up with it. But in a week or two, will see him out in public, and nothing will happen to him. This is what is so infuriating about this movement. Even just ONE arrest would be nice. Someone significant.
What makes a movie great!?!
When the bad guy is caught, and held accountable. That’s what makes a movie great.
shell game Jan 6th, libs aren't going to watch it
maybe we will red pill a few million that don't have their head up their asses
what's going on in the Financial World
how would a pedigreed banker avoid all observation and continue the slavery ?
big YAWN unless people start talking international banking, settlements, monetary easing, backed currency.
On the occasion of so many pills being dropped, and the recent post Tucker Carlson’s J6 Disclosure Strategy is Brilliant - And MAGA Nation is Missing It, and a number of comments therein, I present:
~Ode to New Frens ~
(sing to the tune of Neil Sedaka's Breaking Up Is Hard To Do
Do do do
anon newbie don’t you frown
maga, maga, oh normie don’t you frown
maga, maga, oh normie don’t you frown
Waking up is hard to do
Don't let your mind slip into reeeee...
Don't you block your ears in misery
If you doom then you’ll be blue
'Cause waking up is hard to do
Remember when you saw the light
And you researched all through the night
Think of all that you've been through
‘cos waking up is hard to do
They say that waking up is hard to do
Now you know
You know that it's true
Don't think that this is the end
‘cos after waking up you’ll find your mind begins to breathe again
I think you knew, you’d have to try
So hold on tight and let your logic fly
Come on, human, just start anew
'Cause waking up is hard to do
Now you know
You know that it's true
(Don't think that this is the end)
‘cos after waking up you’ll find your mind begins to breathe again
I think you knew, you’d have to try
So hold on tight and let your conscience fly
Come on, human, just start anew
'Cause waking up is hard to do
maga, maga, oh normie don’t you frown
maga, maga, oh normie don’t you frown
maga, maga, oh normie don’t you frown
maga, maga, oh normie don’t you frown
I really liked that! I don’t always liked songs, people post, but this one was top-notch! Thank you for sharing this. It really cheered my morning up.
Loved This! Filing in GA Songs!
Who else misses their grandma? I lost mine in 2021 and she was someone I love most in the world. I still think about her everyday.
I feel that rship between child and grandparents can be even stronger than w/ parents..maybe because they're older and wiser? while parents are usually still trying to figure things out. Is it just me? Anyone else here really close to their grandparents more than parents?
The cabal didn't start really poisoning things and people with chemicals and medications until later.
That's probably why you could identify with them
My grandfather taught me almost everything I know. He was a stud. I suspect he hunted vampires. 😎
I really miss my grandma, we were really close. I was her favorite. Actually, I wasn’t anybody’s favorite. Only hers. So we had a special bond. She was also the only one who ever spanked me, I appreciated that. It meant that she loved me.
Edit: my daughter is not going to have children, she’s firm on this, and I’ve known it for a long time. So I will never be a grandmother. Also, my brother and his wife of Japan, and they never had kids. So I’ll never be an Aunt either.
I am resolved to this fact, although it seems sad, I’m trying to live my best life now. Headed to Kauai in May, and I’m so excited I’ll be spending six weeks their pet sitting and housesitting for my family. It’s my second home now and I love it.
I don't plan to have kids either due to financial and medical reasons. My parents are quite sad about it but my mom has gotten over it. She leads a Bible study group where a lot of youth joined and they always call her Mommy and always seek her for advice and such, she said she feels like she has adopted many grandkids and feels happy about it. Sometimes when things are not meant to be perhaps God wants us to focus on someone else or other callings in life.
So glad to hear you're living your best life. Cheers!
I pray your daughter comes around. Not that there's anything we can do about it, but she's really missing out completely if she doesn't have children by choice. It's a shame. Whenever I hear someone say they refuse to have children it makes me deeply sad.
You should try going to local playgrounds sometime in the mid-morning to early afternoon. There are often tons of children who could use a good grand motherly influence, even if for just a morning. I go every day with my young son and always pick up a gaggle of hangers on. It's absolutely beautiful for all involved... And I feel it often "wakes up", to a small degree, the "cell phone parents" whose children I end up parenting. The world needs more drive by grandparents and parents. 🤗
Well, I would agree with you, but my daughter is totally LGBT. She think she’s nonbinary, and she’s denied Christ.
I’m almost relieved, because if she had a child, she would screw it up completely. She would be a horrible mother, and we would be fighting about whether I can share Christ with my grandchild. Actually, my daughter didn’t even talk to me for an entire year. She would use the child as a pawn.
Since we live in a 55 and older neighborhood, there’s not a lot of kids neighborhoods around if you know what I mean. Lol. However, I do have a job pet sitting. I really love it, and I get to love on these animals and give them attention. For the most part, animals do love unconditionally, so it’s nice to have that for me.
Today, I’m watching three dogs, we run around the yard together, and a little sheep dog chases me and barks and nips at my heels. It’s hilarious. The dog just needs somebody to heard! The other two run with each other while we do that. It’s not quite grandchildren, but it does bring joy to my life.
I’m happy that you’re having that wonderful experience. I’m sure it fills your heart with joy, and your son enjoys having you in their life as well
resigned
Grammar Nazi!
Resolved:
a : to deal with successfully : clear up resolve doubts resolve a dispute b : to find an answer to c : to make clear or understandable d : to find a mathematical solution of e : to split up into two or more components especially in assigned directions
For me - A - applied - my daughter not having children was an issue that I had doubts about, and there was a dispute at hand. It was ‘resolved’ successfully, by me accepting that fact and moving on.
If you really want to get grammatical about it, perhaps I should’ve said…
I have resolved these facts.
OR
If I was you, you would’ve said…
I have resigned to the situation.
But I’m not you, and you’re not me, so… I don’t come here for people to correct my grammar. But thank you anyway.
Also, quite often, I use text to talk through Siri, she will change whatever she wants, whenever she wants, even after pressing save. This happens a lot. Unless I go back through and read every single thing that I’ve ever posted, I don’t know until somebody tells me. And I guess that’s you today. However, I can’t blame Siri, because this one is on me.
In addition, right before I was going to press save, I went back through and read my entire comment. Siri once again had changed around the words. It’s quite exhausting having to edit your work over and over, and then come here and have somebody criticize your grammar.
I’m sure if you look closely enough at this comment, you can find all kinds of grammatical errors.
I know, but if he has nothing better to do, he should just click on all of my comments, and then grammar Nazi. There is plenty of material. Lol it’s all good.
It’s ok. I resolve to be your Fren. Resolve or resign. Who gives a hoot or two?😂
I never knew my grandparents.
My mum's mother died when she was 11, and her dad died when she was about 16. She never talked about them much at all, either, when we were growing up. I knew virtually nothing about them.
My dad immigrated from his home country when he was about 20 years old. His parents visited our country once (for a few weeks) while I was growing up, and we lived over there for a few months when I was about 10.
Neither of my dad's mother or father spoke English. Apparently, I learned dutch - my dad's native tongue - very quickly and I liked being with my grandfather, but my dad was one of 12 children, most of who stayed in the home country very close to the parents, so my brothers and I weren't exactly special - among around 30 or so grandkids....
Not having grandparents in your life seems to cause such a break in the natural order. I think it breaks continuity of context in a big way, among other things. So much harder to understand your own parents - who they are, how their own parents influenced them, why they do certain things - just understanding that there is a past that existed before you came along.
I've since learned quite a bit about my mother's mother, and I've come to feel close to her spiritually. I think she's always been around, although I never recognized that feeling until very recently.
I don't envy folks who know their grandparents, even if its only one, but if you do, be grateful. Not having grandparents is pretty hard.
Wise words. 👍
My mom’s mom-I miss her very much. You could talk to her about anything and she was the kindest, gentlest person and always had cookies and would hide them down low and let me go looking for them. She had a perpetual cup of coffee in her hand and was a very good artist. She was a social worker at the VA for about 20 years and worked really hard to help make changes for vets. Here is what struck me the other day- the irony in life.
My brother died on his motorcycle because he gave his helmet to his passenger who needed a ride home and so he went without. It was one rare time he wasn’t wearing it. The accident was deemed passenger caused.
My grandma, who had Alzheimer’s had begun to fall a lot but loved to walk so they gave her a helmet to wear and that one time she wasn’t wearing it-she fell and hit her head and died from a brain bleed.
She sounds like a beautiful person.
In my 20s I lived for a couple years on a block in Baltimore that was >90% black. I’m not going to argue with anyone who listed Baltimore as one of the worst.
I haven’t seen anyone mention Las Vegas but it deserves consideration because it’s so fake and unnecessary. Feeding the Colorado River to Los Angeles made some sense because there are organic reasons for LA to be a city, such as its ocean ports. Maybe Phoenix is also more justifiable. But Vegas was astroturfed for criminal political reasons and its site is in one of the most energy and resource intensive regions of the country. Mobsters using union pensions justified it because of nationwide unAmerican local gambling bans. People should’ve been free to gamble in their own hometowns all over the country. That would’ve saved all the traveling fuel and emissions to get to Vegas. All of the energy used to air condition all those big buildings is ludicrous, and of course we hear about Lake Mead’s water volume becoming a crisis, just like the rest of the Colorado River basin. Then think of all the social problems with hookers, drug dealers, deep state wind up shooters, etc
I'm not worldly enough to give you an answer that's not the standard "Top 5 Liberal Hellholes", but I do have a small story.
Was just talking to a dear friend who lives in the Seattle area... He is an architect, his wife is a social worker / psychologist. She's really struggling with her mental health due to her job obligations grinding her down (plus... She's a liberal social worker/ psychologist... They're going to be crazy already). Anyway, it's been difficult on their marriage to the point she's had to take a sabbatical, and they are going to take the time off and work on moving locations. My friend is kind of a softie, classical liberal, little bit of a cuck sort. He's smart, and knows The System keeps us down, but he's also very pro BLM and LBGQTGX+ supporting. I'm in Florida, and we've had some back and forth discussions about liberty since COVID-19, and I thought (rightfully) I might have woken him up a bit...
This is how the text went:
Him: So she's taking a sabbatical and we're going to move out of state...
Me: Awesome! Where to? Texas!?
Him: No... Probably Minneapolis or Portland... 😏 (He included the emoji)
Me: Bwahahaha. 🤣
wow Minnesota is huge & beyond beautiful WHY would they move to Minneapolis🤦♀️
probably better though, doesn't sound like they'd ever understand anyway. there's an 'art' to living in the upper midwest😎

Anywhere where it’s extremely cold like below zero, and snows heavily. I thrive in the sunlight, my best weather is Kauai weather. And swimming with turtles.
Other than that requirement, all of the places each person have mentioned - seem legit place is not to live.
The sad part is, I grew up in Huntington Beach. My dad lived in the valley, and we drove back-and-forth throughout Los Angeles freely, without any issues. I loved being a California girl. And now I’m embarrassed to say I’m from there. Also, are used to travel to San Francisco every year in October, during the Indian summer. It was my favorite city to go to. Now… I have no desire to go to either. It’s very sad.
that sounds like such a different life to me...can't imagine not having snow. like a love hate relationship, where you have very little control. snowed again this weekend/so cold:( would love to go to the Trump rally tomorrow, but can't trust the weather.
Anywhere in CA, NY, MI, IL, OR Thanks to Newsome, Holchul, Whitmer, Pritzker, and Hochul

All of mine would be Baltimore.
If I was going to be forced to move someplace wretched I would choose everyplace over Baltimore.
