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.

Does anybody follow or pay attention to IL Donaldo trumps? He has an account on ts. . And.kf course on telegram. IL trumpo keeps posting same posts about Jim brown nfl retired player who just passed a few days ago. He did stand with Trump. But his background was well, not so good.
How many have taveled the USA by vehicle? East coast to West cost. Up North to Down South, thru the busiest towns in between?
Ports, to border crossings? To know where the heaviest flow of traffic is? How wide open and free riding it is out west after a certain point? In a vehicle you've personally driven on your own? Not just stat you looked up?
I have driven from Los Angeles to San Fran, through Yosemite and Redwoods, through the smaller highway (I think 101?). I have also driven from Maine to Virginia and multiple times in between.
There is no better place for driving lovers than the USA. My dream is to one day go around all the continental states in a RV or something after retirement.
Oh on the redwood. My son's dad had a cabin in seqoiua national forest. We went on out honeymoon! Tooooooo die for! I was 18. We climbed on a rock and I could see Mt. Whitney without binoculars! Gorgeous up there.
That would be cool. I would love to do that also. Stop at every little town fair, or gathering. See why they celebrate and learn the history. Where I'm from in Illinois we have burgoo.... its in Sept. It's a soup of sorts. Lol. Everything but the kitchen sink. But all the elders get together a week ,I think, before the festival and start peeling potatoes and corn and what not. It's a German thing. Then they have a little carnival come in for the kids. And when I was little, they used to do square dancing! Oh how we loved it. I haven't been in years.
Aww. Awesome fren! VA the state for lovers! I lived there for several years. Been all over! I've driven cross country twice. East to west coast and back. Then as a pilot car driver all and in between! What wonderful and humbling adventures. Ports, and borders. Traffic jams and wide open beautiful spaces. For sure. Top to bottom of the map. 8 trips to Canada, without a passport I may add in 2018! Border crossings were Michigan and New York. I love to travel. God truly answered that prayer.
Good on you! Coast to coast was something I always wanted to do, but didn't get a chance before I left. America is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places and has some of the most wonderful people (you just have to get far away from the big cities lol). I personally loved the national parks, even though now I realise the dark side to that as well.
I got very fortunate in the job I had, being a pilot car driver. Honestly Virginia and West Virginia are 2 of my most beloved places after Colorado and Wyoming!
I was about to say, I thought you lived in Australia!? Lol. I've lived in Illinois, SC, VA, CA and now GA lol. I'm a mover lol. What do you mean dark side?
There are theories that national parks are in special locations where something important is being hidden. There seems to be correlation with child trafficking as well. Remember how Obama increased the national park designated areas?
I sincerely hope this is all false, since I love to believe all these parks were just that - beautiful areas untainted by greed.
Actually I vaguely remember, I won't lie, was before my awakening. But, I also never visited such parks either. Hmmm.
I lived in US before I moved here, more than two decades ago. I lived in MD, VA and CA. During the dot com times, so all these places were beautiful before the woke mobs took over. Personally loved WV, but I havent been to a place I didn't like. Oh, I visited there multiple times over the years, and after Obama took over, each visit I noticed everything looking grim and gloomier than before. Unfortunately, I didnt get a chance to visit during Trump years :(
Wow! I didn't start my travels until 2012. Mostly SC, ( where I lived) NC, and KS. Which I'd already traveled having fam in Illinois. Tons of road construction.
'13,14,15 , I got to go up North. VA, W VA, DC MD and Baltimore. Horrible traffic. Oh my no! I remember when they were building the lanes to use ,oh oh, pre pass! Lol.
The only way I got in and out of the Country God rest My Dad's soul! Was him being USMC!
Keto Kooking Korner - Les Quichons
I filmed and mounted my recipe of "quichons", which are a mix between my buns and the Quiche lorraine. It's low-carb, easy to cook and our weekend guests and my wife ate 20 of the 24 I cooked in a day.😋
👉🏻 https://youtu.be/3yIO1e5fvB8
The music is something I created 20y ago with a sampler.
Les Quichons look good, the music sounds about like something from the movie Lawrence of Arabia AND...there's that hairy arm. Kek.
Mary!🤗💐 thank you for watching!🙏🏻
I always look and listen to what you send me.
I am sorry for the typo: « take a leak » instead of « leek ».🥺💐
Haha. I didn't even notice. I wonder how many others did?
My sister did.🤭💐
She's very observant.
🙏Prayer Garden Podcast Episode 10: Marcia Applegate (Jew and Gentile)🙏
https://youtu.be/ymTxymmUaIE
On this episode we speak with Marcia Applegate, one of my good friends and fellow members at Immanuel Church. We hear Marcia's story of growing up in an Orthodox Judaism household and what lead her to hearing Christ's voice and ultimately turning her heart to Him. Marcia describes her family's reaction to her testimony and how she chose Jesus over anyone else. We then talk about what is means being a Messianic Jew and then we dive into some controversial topics that are highly debated regarding Judaism in today's current time.
Thank you for tuning in! Together through Christ we have endless potential.

Need advice on a based security system service. I’m in NC if that helps.
We think a family member has some form of internal cancer.
I gave him some ivermectin, which I have plenty of, and after a few days of it, apparently his poop has started to turn yellow.
Is this a good thing? If not, should I immediately order some fenbendazole? I know where to get some.
Yellow poop can mean that there is bile in his stool, which can mean the liver is overproducing it.
Meaning what, exactly? This isn't my area.
Sounds like liver cancer to me.
It can mean a few things, I just know that yellow stools are a sign of the liver producing more bile, and that could be caused by the liver reacting to toxins, a fatty diet, https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/323147#stool-colors
With colon cancer the blood in the stools turns brown. So if it's c.c. then yellow is a good sign, at a guess.
My husband had me roaring with laughter yesterday and I thought; What a great MEME this would be.
We were talking about the 'INFLATION REDUCTION ACT.' And my husband said,
Before: a picture of Chris Christy After: a picture of a starving Ethiopian (I know this is in bad taste but you'd have to use a starving person to make it work)
Caption at bottom. Wow! Due to Biden's Inflation, I really reduced my weight; and it didn't cost me one red cent.
Just thought I'd throw this out there as it would make a great MEME.
Okay a better depiction.
On the left is Christ Christy (Before inflation reduction act)
On the right is this guy (After inflation reduction act)
Just showed this to my husband. He said he didn't think about that. But to have what the Leftists would look like and then what the Right would look like would make a much better MEME. Thanks.
Yeah there are two separate memes here. One is what people look like under Biden. Second is what the debt looks like under Biden. With proper captioning, both can deliver the punch.
Hey, better yet. Put Chris Christy before and after under the word INFLATION and then put Democrats under the picture. Then do the same with REDUCTION and put the Republicans under that one. It should be a winner.
The INFLATION, REDUCTION Act.
HELP! I can't stop laughing. That would make a better MEME with it being Chris Christy. One for the Lefties. Then take a regular person and make a skinny starved person for us that they want to starve. Make them side by side. What a LAUGH. Thanks for the laugh. Now I can't stop again.
Air rights! The movie Burlesque with Cher. That's how she won her club back! I think. I'm sure. Air rights. There are aviation air right, and hah railroad and air rights also.
Aka warmongers, just like Victoria Nuland and the gang.
If you are looking at the world as left wing vs right wing, you are missing the point. Cabal works both sides to create divisions, hence we have RINOs, forever wars, and financial slavery no matter who was at the helm.
Men and women, created by God, have both a right-side brain and a left-side brain. We have right arms and left arms, right hands and left hands.
Likewise, we are either men or women. You cannot create a natural family without both a man and a woman.
What is it that unifies the right side and the left side together. It is the mind, the heart, the consciousness. When the mind works through the brain to harmonize left and right, they work together and become instruments for us to express and accomplish the purpose of our lives.
What unifies a man and a woman, so that they create a natural family of love? It is the heart of God, the mind of God, the love of God. Together, the man and the woman are drawn in to unity via love, and God's life manifests through the union of their love.
Evil always works to remove the center, the unifying purpose, which represents God, the center of all.
Thus, under evil, it is always Left wing vs Right wing, Woman vs Man. The Cabal works hard to create divisions, and conflict, where originally under God's design there would be unity and harmony.
Those caught up in the worldview that perpetuates left (wing) vs right (wing) are functioning under a matrix created by evil.
Whereas God creates unity and harmony between complementary opposites, Evil sows district, disunity and conflict, to turn complementary opposites in to warring competitors.
Ever it has been since the Garden. Lies, division, manipulation, and slavery.
Waking up to the reality that the Left vs Right paradigm has been generated by the puppet masters behind is one of the most important milestones on the path to existing the matrix.
You are mixing metaphors.
Really? I am simply pointing out that there is a dynamic of reciprocity inbuilt into God's creation, with examples being male and female, for example, and left and right in the body.
The divide within the political world, exacerbated by the Left vs Right paradigm, reflects this on a political level. There are myriad examples all throughout the created world of such reciprocity, and it finds expression also in the world of human endeavors. However, in the case of we humans, the expressions are very often, if not always, distorted and 'corrupted', because of the fact that we ourselves are fallen people with an innate corruption inherited from the Fall.
If we were an unfallen people, and the Cabal (or the evil behind it) was not a factor that influences how we find out expression politically, how would things function? A dictatorship? I doubt it. There would always be aspects within the political approach that fall either to a 'left' - approach or a 'right' approach, or a neutrality between them. Left being, for example, an approach that favors change and fluidity, and right being an approach that favors conservativism, and continuity.
What we have today, and have had since the Cabal's influence, since the days of the French Revolution, is a bastardization of what politics centered on God should be.
In my view, the "left" and the "right" should be cooperating centering on the common purpose of serving the People of the country. Instead, evil infiltrates to have them fight as opponents, thus dividing the people into one camp or the other.
Healthy competition of ideas between the 'left' and the 'right' would be productive for the country, if they shared the common purpose of honestly serving the nation with integrity (aka God's purpose for them).
Instead what we have is a hidden purpose behind them both, an evil purpose and one that is advanced by dividing the people.
In my experience, the greatest clarity on any dynamic or interaction comes from recognizing what are original structures and principles put in place by the Creator, and fallen structures or dynamics that deviate from that original model. The creation provides the ultimate blueprint for understanding God's principles (with Christ being the very embodiment and manifestation of those principles 'the word', made flesh).
Anyway, that's how I see it.
I am not arguing about the divine left and right - Yin and Yang. Fully aware of this. My point is aboput political left and right, which is an artificial construct.
They abuse the natural Yin/Yang tendancies of people to push them int political left vs right, but it only serves to further divide people.
Simply put, just because someone is "right wing" does not mean they are good and that someone is "left wing" does not mean they are evil.
