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
My family and I lost grandma today. If you have a spare while candle and don't mind, please light it in her memory. Thank you. 🙏
I know a lot of the housing on the west coast has gone down quite a bit, mostly because a ton of people fled east thinking the rent was cheaper.
Has anyone done a timeline or whatever on Ron DeSantis? Rome GA, his family from Italy. Floyed County. George floyed. Idk spitballing. From what I did see. Sorry didn't see dates. Got distracted with life stuff.
Oh and the school he worked at was founded in 9-11 1905
I am still banned from Twitter, but I still occasionally look at President Trump's Twitter account. A girl can dream! https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump
am I the only one that was confused by the alternating colors? Took me a minute to figure out if I was in the right place. I like it, just thrown off
weird, it's gone now. you know how an excel sheet allows you to use alternating colors where each row will alternate between gray and white. It is easier on your eyes when looking at the information. When I logged in one row was dark blue, the next was dark gray. I have dark mode on so I am not sire if those specific two colors were because of dark mode.
One of Trump's truths today implied Ron Desantis could be gay KEK!!
Not necessarily. I mean, yeah, it was a troll, but also recall that the man Avenati was behind the Stormy rubbish. So it could also mean that it might not just be a women who uses such an attack on Ron, but also a man behind that.
Did the format for GAW change. The cool graphic at the top disappeared and it looks different. Did I change something. How can I go back.
My name is also not at the top. Can someone guide me back to the way it was
Aww the pictures next to names are gone as well. Oh gee what did I do
It should all be back now
Kinda interesting I guess. Just went to my local bfe gas station, that has recently been bought by some people from Nepal. They are very nice group of men. As I was leaving a joking with them. The older guy asked me if I had a daughter?! I said no ( kinda figuring what he was getting at). He said you have no daughter? I said, nope, just a son! Then I asked the guy ( cashier) how old he was 29. I said, sorry Mj, his name. Idk. They just bought the store a few months back.
My wife is nepali, tend to be very good Hindu people or converted rice Christians. Always peaceful typically very happy and hard workers. I've only met one Nepali man that I would consider to be truly alpha. That's why I'm probably the most popular husband in our Nepali friends... I'm the only American. #sadtruth
They are so sweet. I thought it was funny. He is a very handsome young man. Not much older than my son. I always joke with him. Sat, night I was in there with my sister and this is the cute guy I been telling you about.. then all that happened today. Lol. Deer in headlights look. So cute.
Steeling myself to try to remain on Twitter over the next 48 hours or so. I have a feeling it's going to get REALLY nasty out there. The few trolls I encountered over the weekend were pretty lame and easily pushed back on but I could tell they were ramping up.
Imagine Trump's "arrest" is the false leak that will keep all the tds patients in-country to see the spectacle, but it is they who are arrested. Muhahahahaha
I think it's funny her name is "Stormy". Just sayin'.
Searched Stormy for the hell of it.

I actually had a partial talk about a week ago with a couple, nice folks but fox-programmed republisheep. They were bought into some weird and mysterious idea about Russia taking over the world starting with Ukraine. As if Russia could accomplish nothing without Ukraine being conquered first... 'cause they got no other borders? (sigh)
Weird and mysterious because they couldn't provide any details at all about how, why, why NOW, and of course they had no idea about the history of the region. If I started questioning or providing facts (like why the hell would they bomb their own pipeline instead of just turning it off, historical genocide of Russians in the Donbass, or the open nazis) they got all hand-wavy and glossy-eyed, so the best I could do was strongly recommend Oliver Stone's documentary, since they're obviously easy to program through a screen.
My daughter has a lot of lefty opinions about Ukraine. She is always saying if Ukraine loses then NATO has to fight Russia because Russia wants to take over eastern Europe.
Normies aren't even CLOSE to being able to answer that. 😅
Trump talking about statute of limitations being violated. Setting the precedent to prosecute other people where the statute of limitations have expired?
I know for a lot of cases in canada, especially financial ones like tax-owing, they'll extend the statute if circumstances prevented someone from being able to fulfill the obligations (so like if you're poor and owe someone $5,000, they can extend it to where it'd start when you were first able to reasonably pay some of it off).
Good thought!
I wonder about the secret presidential pardons wielded by previous residents of the White House - does definitive provable treason remain legally pardoned, or can a pardon be undone? Can pardons legally cover future crimes, or only those committed up to the point the pardon is granted? I'm certain the bad guys wouldn't honor anything good done by anyone else anyway, how far do we honor their corrupt acts?
Nice. 👍

Only those who see beyond the veil will be able to weather the tempestuous times ahead.
Wow, that's actually freakin' scary - she transfers all her emotion instantly into absolutely destroying her own glasses. Her face while concentrating on demolishing an inanimate and innocent object because her proxy lost was unsettling, to say the least.
I'm not a body language pro, but man I get the feeling she's thoroughly detailed in her vindictiveness. Seriously gave me the creeps. Hope she disowns the young man, for his own best interests.
In a deleted scene from Vision Quest, Brian Shute’s mom reacts the same way.
Big baby! I'm surprised her son has testosterone at all.

I once read that taking pimozide kills any desire to be trans.
Is that true?
No idea what that is, but we've seen the vids here by the formerly-gay dude who noticed that animals infected with parasites acted gay which helped transmit parasites, and on his own started a very strong anti-parasite regimen with castor oil and other things that would alkalize his blood and clean out infestations. He found that he did have a LOT of parasites and once clear, all gay tendencies pretty much left him. He updated his own video years later, confirming still clear and straight. From this, we can surmise that at least a percentage of the population is manipulated by parasites to be obsessed with gay sex, and that clearing the infestation would give these people their minds back.
Behavioral effects of parasites on hosts is also discussed heavily on boards dealing with Herxheimer reactions (not sure if I got that spelling right) - which are wild mood/biochemical swings suffered by people during the clearing process. Seems to come from the parasites attempting to thwart their deaths by secreting junk that messes with the host's system, especially neurotic.
Hm, maybe I got my disorders mixed up. I knew pimozide did something.
Totally possible, I don't know about it specifically, but if you find anything do come back and post!
Was reading and considering your post seriously until the AOC line, and got coffee on my keyboard. (angrily sticks tongue out at you virtually)
Q specifically tells us, not everyone will go down in flames or hanging high from the tree of Liberty.
He cites Clinton’s as an example, their “public” health will begin to shift RAPIDLY then… POOF…
My brother shared this with me, at a time when after, more than 2 decades in other countries, I came home and began trying to find out who my father was and what I was to him. We hadn't lived together since I was 13. I didn't really know my dad as an adult, because I was living in other countries, trying to make a difference for humanity.
At around age 43, I began a 10 year journey of trying to understand my dad. My dad had had a traumatic childhood, and so much of him was a closed book to me.
My brother shared this music with me at a time when I began realizing my dad wouldn't open up to me and that I had to do the opening up. (I had essentially skipped about 2 decades of 'western' music while living elsewhere).
FYI, I found my dad, and came to love him profoundly, before he passed on.
Sharing this for anons out there who are still trying to reconcile with who their mum or dad truly is, and to learn to love them despite all past history, including the pain of recent years.

Thank you for sharing this. I lost my dad at a young age. 2.5 yrs old. I saw him get killed. It's totally affected my whole life. (46). Mom passed 10 yrs ago! Thank you! Now, I try and tell my son, ( as mental as I am, lol) how important it is, to spend time with his dad and I. Good post.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for bravely sharing this. There can be chasms between us and our dads even when we're almost next door. I've been moved in the last couple of years to add to prayers for the Lord to help families reconcile and reunite because sudden things are happening a lot now and we need to be together no matter what. (Fraternal hug) God bless you and your family.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
I lost my father when I was very young. Missing out on the connections, the moments, the discussions, the arguments, the guidance, the fellowship...is painful enough.
If it were a result of my own choices I don't know that I could bear it.
Hey Tread. I'd like to recommend a book that I have found to be really powerful in changing some of my internal world in the last 2 years.
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/26026054-it-didn-t-start-with-you
I'm not suggesting you have problems as described in the blurb (I don't know), but I found this book to be an amazing instrument of healing. It really opened up some things for me, in relation to my whole family and lineage.
Worth the investment.
Thanks Frac. Looks like a fascinating and potentially helpful read. I have my struggles. At least as many as the next guy...
From the blurb it sounds like epigenetic memory (or something similar) is a focus of the book. That's a concept I find very intriguing.
Yep, it's got to do with epigenetics. Really helped me to put together some of my own internal experiences but in the context of my family and lineage.
I'm fond of saying, there are two Great Awakenings, the internal one and the external one. While the world (including us) is waking up to the reality of things externally, anons and everyone else in the Great Awakening have to also realize that the internal awakening is pivotal and key.
And some people are ahead of the curve (of awakening) while some are behind, just like in everything else.
I share your philosophy about it not being a binary on/off thing.
Adore this song,it contains some powerful messages.
Thanks for posting.
I'm just completing my memoirs. The book begins "This is for my kids in case they ever wonder why the f... did dad...?"
Excellent move.
intergenerational knowledge is even more important than intergenerational wealth.

Suggestion
A post put up by a mod and stickied each week on Friday or Saturday.
"Stickies for Sunday"
are particularly relevant to the past week's or the upcoming week's events/narratives
are classic posts that the board will benefit from re-reading, re-viewing (including newcomers and newbie anons)
This way, the board could do the work of making the suggestions, etc, and it would just need a mod to implement based on / that mod's judgment / OR / based on votes support in the comments / by stickying some of those posts on the Saturday or Sunday.
Thinking here how to make this a board community action without resting all the work on one or more mods.
OR
Just get some super-powerful, all-knowing mod with too much time to select relevant posts and sticky them, for "Sunday Stickies"!
<end script>
"Just get some super-powerful, all-knowing mod with too much time to select relevant posts and sticky them, for "Sunday Stickies"!"
We have many of those. I really do think this would be a great service for Sunday's. Hope it works out. 🙏
Well, the "too much time" was pretty much tongue in cheek.
Love our mods. Thank you mods.
Praying God protects the ones that can't protect themselves in the coming months and years.
Random thought: my normie looks like Janet Yellen. Who does your normie look like?
I have a ton of normies; they run the spectrum from rail thin to morbidly obese. It's impossible to pin down a "look"...
But the largest percentage look like Janet Yellen... Probably heavier.
been wondering about this too, as I've read they're like 'patterned' background people; don't have the facial 'character' of souled beings.
my 5 year FB case-study normie (stupid guy I went to HS with) looks like a midwest farmer type; tall/medium build/wears jeans, but must be some weird liberal hybrid, he has the worse case of TDS. of course he's fully vaxxed. his farmer avatar definitely doesn't fit his personality.
my family normies are similar looking farmer/blue collar, but unlike the other normie they actually work A LOT, but don't read because there is too much 'work' to be done. vicious cycle.
Unfortunately, I have many normies. For the most part, they have bangs that are cut straight across-kind of like Janet Yellen!!
I cannot remember the comedian, Oriental and very funny, with a bit about the "Moe" haircut that all Chinese seem to get. Like there's a whole big poster on the wall of the barbershop and the barber asks, do you want the Moe? or the Moe? How about the Moe? ...and winds up slapping a bowl on the customer's head, cuts all around, Done! Next!
Every time I see bangs like that on a male or female this bit runs in my head...
THAT is hilarious! Check out Joe Koy. I think that’s how you spell it. He’s Filipino.
When my father died he had a three car garage Machine Shop. I had two pods worth of tools shipped to Arizona. I have the makings of what would be a bad ass shop. I would rent it out for trade. Of course it would be few, and far between, people would be vetted, and they would have to be some type of a trust system, but the shop itself would be pretty bad ass. That’s how I would barter and trade.
Well, considering I have a large farm and grow crops and raise livestock, it looks like that would be my job.
Babysitter, youth leader, shaman. 😁
Definitely could fall back on farming.
I would help the community learn how to educate its children using the classical model, which is exactly what I do now.
