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.

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've come to My own brains conclusion that sometimes the most idiotic shit gets stickied. While sometimes, things of importance or future importance yea..... just got to the wayside. Because they are not the " thing " at the moment. I've seen it happen. I have posted a time or two on subjects. Then boom, everyone us talking about it. And I scratch my head, like yea that was a notable thing 2 weeks ago, if you weren't so caught up. Barker, seiler , Dawgs, nuclear football, blackout game Sept 2nd. Comms. Interesting.
So true. This place is overrun by the clowns who jack each other's bogus memes to the moon. But there are always a few golden nuggets down deep in the muck. Can't talk too much there though or you attract the negative nanny statists.
The best stuff does get taken down though...that is why some people like 369q left I think
Hey! Who wants to talk about hurricane names? First we get Hillary, and now we get Idalia. And after the COVert-ID op I tend to read this as ID-all-a-ya. So maybe that tells us Hillary identified everyone involved.
Does anyone else see this?
If you were going to hire a nanny that would work a different number of hours each month, what would you use for payment? The purpose is so that they have a neat w2 at the end of the year.
It surprises how the words in my book are beginning to pour out. My only regret is that I didn't start this sooner.
President Trump is supposed to be on Glenn beck radio program here in a couple minutes. On your a.m. dial. Like literally in five minutes.
So Glenn couldn’t be out done by Tucker huh? I really want to believe that Glenn is truly seeing the light. I do like him and listen to him occasionally, but was disappointed when he didn’t support Trump. I have a hard time listening to the radio guys now that I know the truth. I understand they have to drag out and analyze everything, but it’s boring for those of us that know how this thing ends. The only one I would listen to from beginning to end was Rush. Miss him. ❤️🥲
He supports Trump hugely for years now. His show is worth a daily listen imho
I’m happy to hear that. I used to be a huge fan of his during his FOX tenure. I was so disappointed when he would talk negative about Trump. I am so grateful to him for investing in OUR with Tim Ballard. When I heard that it made me smile. I will give him another listen. Thank you.
Any artists in here? We are all mining our own little "tunnel" in a HUGE boulder of truth. We can see the bright light that is emanating through the cracks of this boulder the further we dig (the rabbit hole). Everyone is at a different depth of their dig, but we need the full collective of individuals to uncover the grand light at the center of this boulder. Then , and only then, will we all get to view the prize we all seek, the Great Awakening( depicted as something golden...)
I just an ad in Truth Social:

Have a blessed day.
I think one of the best ways to enlighten folks who have had the vax, and seem to be so far okay from it, (in my circles), is to point out as tactfully as you can, that the vaccines did nothing for them as regards to catching Covid. I know of 3 women over the age of 70 who had the shots, (these are active women, not couch potatos, who eat well and are in good shape), and ended up with Covid 3x already, I just saw a neighbor and friend at the market, and we were catching up, she and her husband caught it again, 3rd time. I just stared blankly at her, and said, but you were vaccinated. I did not say "told you so" or, anything that sounded like anti vax, just "but you were vaccinated". I saw her raise her eyebrow at me, and say, "yeah, whats that about, I guess it really didn't do a thing". I find diplomacy works, because if I immediately try to "prove" something, a persons defenses go up , its just human nature. Insight comes to most people when they are encouraged to think for themselves and this gave me the perfect opportunity. Interesting enough was that she said the nurse at the Health Center told her not to worry about it, that she will never catch it again. I thought that was interesting.
Yeah people know without us telling them. I always just nod and say hmm.. when people are beginning to use their God given common sense. When I’m asked if I took the jab, I just say no, I don’t take any vaccines. I prefer to stay healthy in other ways. I’m just happy that people are finally beginning to question. Been a long time coming.
Very well done. In many cases, this is the approach we need to take. We need to help people think for themselves. It's the lack of thinking for oneself that is the big problem, more so than any one issue. This is part of our role in the Great Awakening.
Did anyone else hear Bannon state that Maui's electric utility turned off power six hours BEFORE the fire started? He said that yesterday, and mused that "something's not right with this." (Or something to that effect.)
Anyone have further news or explanation about that?

What's with the 2am awakenings lately? I prefer my great awakening closer to 7.
I’ve been waking at 4am lately. 🙄 Started with the Alex Jones clip about Covid.
Dead Penguins - I never knew this!
Did you ever wonder why there are no dead penguins on the ice in Antarctica? Where do they all go? Wonder no more! It is a known fact that the penguin is a very ritualistic bird and lives an extremely ordered and complex life. Penguins are extremely committed to their family and will mate for life, as well as maintain a form of compassionate contact with their offspring throughout the remainder of their life. If a penguin is found dead on the ice surface, other members of the family and their social circle have been known to dig holes in the ice, using only their vestigial wings and beaks, until the hole is deep enough for the dead bird to be rolled into, and buried. After packing the ice back in the hole, the male penguins then gather in a circle around the fresh grave and sing:
"Freeze a jolly good fellow."
"Freeze a jolly good fellow."
You really didn't believe that I know anything about penguins, did you?
You crack me up 😂🤣
That was mean! KEK Here's some true info though. https://penguinsblog.com/what-happens-to-dead-penguins/
You are a rotten SOB.
Got me good.
Pre-caffienated.
Does anybody have a good home remedy for a very bad case of ringing in the ears? It's gotten so bad over the past couple of days I can hardly hear. All I hear basically is ringing, swooshing, buzzing and the occasional gunshot/explosion. Thank ya'll.
There are a couple of youtube videos/audio that claim to "cure" tinnitus, but they don't.What they do is play sounds of trickling water over pebbles, it relieves it for a bit, gives the auditory nerves something else to "think" about. I've had it for a few years now, it sounds like summer locusts hissing, all year round. I guess I have gotten used to it, and read that it comes with my condition, MCAS Mast Cell Reactive Syndrome, its a common symptom. Nasal flushes with saline can help relieve pressure on the inner ear, but basically it has to do with the auditory nerve, not from any infection or mucus block. Ginko Biloba, Zinc, B12, Melatonin and Magnesium may help, as all of those help the nerves, according to my research. I am still trying to juggle the times I take my supplements, and my doctor has given me a long list of them, so , to be honest, it is a rare day I take all of these, scheduled with meals, on empty stomach, and all. There is more and more research being done regarding melatonin and its ability to heal nerve damage. It's not just for sleep anymore. My doc suggests nothing higher than 3mg at night.
Thank you
Have you looked at full spectrum CBD gummies? They are getting some positive press. My husband is taking a quality CBD oil as part of the Tippens protocol for his prostate cancer and it doesn't seem to have any adverse effects. Otherwise I am interested in looking for any other things that could help. We have never dealt with tinnitus...only vertigo...
No, I haven't yet. I'm going to on my next day off. There'd a cbd and Kratom shop up the road from the house. I'm wondering about the use of Kratom, I'm not to familiar with it.
My son used to sell it in a glass shop he worked in and said it came with good feedback. He never tried it though. Thank you
Never heard of Kratom....
I share your pain. It's called tinnitus. Look it up. It can be caused by aspirin, virus infection and many other things. Syringe your ears out with warm, soapy water. If that doesn't help, start researching. If you find a cure please let us know.
Thank you
Back in March 2020, I lived in the greater Boston area. During the lockdowns, my husband and I were bored and sitting up late in our living room wide awake around 2am. I heard a diesel truck drive by, which seemed odd. While everyone was locked down, there wasn’t much traffic on the roads. When I looked out to see what it was, I saw what looked like a utility truck that was misting something into the air. Couldn’t have been spraying for mosquitos - far too early for that up north. We remain convinced that the town was spraying some sort of bio weapon under the cover of night so no one would notice. We never did find out what it was.
I got covid (confirmed by 15 minute snot test) days after noticing exceptionally thick chemtrails. Not asymtomatic, I felt really sick. No I didn't put the swab up my nose.
Love Barry Wunsch. A great man of God.
Yes, he shakes like he is having electricity run through him when the spirit flows but I cry like a baby. Just interesting to see the differences
Oh yeah, he is definitely getting a touch. There are so many great men and women of God rising up at this time. I was listening to Kent Christmas this morning. He could hardly speak with out speaking in tongues. How people cannot be encouraged in this time is beyond me. So much is happening.
Reposting the question since it did not get good sampling of answers last time:
I guess I want to have your opinion on this:
I am now receiving email solicitations from Trump's campaign offering official Mugshot merch in exchange for donations. They have quips like the following:
What is your take on making Trump mugshot merch and selling it? On one hand, the mug-shot is public domain by default, so there is no copyright issue here. On the other hand, it does look like we are greedily profiting off Trump's misery here for selfish gains, especially if we don't send a few bucks over to Trump afterward...
I am tempted to get Mark Dice's Trump mugshot shirt. I haven't even looked for an "official" one. I live in Japan and I tried to donate to the Stone Defense Fund when they were trying to throw Roger Stone in prison. It wouldn't let me because I don't live in America. So if I can't buy an official Trump one, I'll be happy to buy one from Mark Dice. I know he doesn't respect Qtards like us, but I like him, buy his books, and I own his "there are only two genders" T-shirt that is now a rarity.
I wear the Mark Dice Santa Trump shirt during Christmas season.
My T-shirt says:
WITH A BODY LIKE THIS
WHO NEEDS HAIR?
In general, I've never been a trend follower. If everyone wears a specific T-shirt, you can be certain that I'll wear something different.
But that's just me. And I'm not American. My take is this: if you want to support Trump financially, send money as direct as possible. If you want advertise the fact that you support Trump, by all means wear a T-shirt to express that. But I would use a different photo and/or wording. it shows that you are thinking and not blindly following the herd.

Here is information on how to use 20 Mule Team Borax for arthritis...it is from the Unleashed column where I post medical information since the board doesn't allow very many medical posts. I personally use the borax since it is so cheap but I just ordered some 3 mg. pills of boron to have on hand. The borax is very easy to use...I just add the 1/8 tsp. (women's dose) to about a quarter cup of hot water and then add that to a filled water bottle (20 oz.) that I usually add George's aloe vera and apple cider vinegar to it...I drink mostly water throughout the day so this is just one water bottle I drink....please read the links so you have an understanding of what boron is and then how to utilize the borax...any questions let me know but it really is quite easy...you only do it during the week....best of luck...it works...
3 What to Know About Boron for Arthritis
https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/boron-for-arthritis
4 How 20 Mule Team Borax Can Help Alleviate Arthritis Symptoms Naturally
https://www.earthclinic.com/borax-remedy-for-arthritis.html
Also... please read the comments...some people appear to have symptoms of detoxing when taking borax...as 1/8 tsp. actually provides about 55 mg. of boron...so you could even start with less and work your way up to 1/8 tsp. I take lots of supplements so I did not have any reaction but we all differ...
I often order online at Swanson Vitamins...look at the article to choose what strength...I ordered 3 mg. tablets but evidently 5-10 mg. is not unusual...take it slow and it's good to get acclimated and 3 mg. seems to work pretty well...
I remember in the old days (1950's) my mom would make an eyewash with Boric Acid, is it the same thing? It was for styes and stuff. I recently started taking a supplement through Life Extension called Only Trace Minerals, which contain Boron, it also has other trace minerals , and I think it has helped. Hard to tell though, because with MCAS, there are good days and bad days. It may not be for everyone, but cannabis has helped with my flexibility, a lot. My problems are first thing in the morning, and when I stop moving to sit for awhile, once I am moving, I can do so for awhile, but when I stop to rest, starting up is not easy, I seize up like a car that sat all winter. I am 73, so, there is that to consider, but the weed has helped with flexibility. Easy for me I live in a legal state and grow my own. It does not take much, One rolled joint lasts me all day.
"Boric acid, more specifically orthoboric acid, is a compound of boron, oxygen, and hydrogen with formula B(OH)₃. It may also be called hydrogen orthoborate, trihydroxidoboron or boracic acid."
I had to look up MCAS...you have some interesting symptoms...what do you do for that specifically?
I take Pepcid AC Allegra with Quercitin 2x a day, Fish Oil Alpha Lipoic Acid and L Carnitine Singular at night with Magnesium L Threonate , CoQ10 100 mgs 3-4 times a day depending on UV exposure, Methyl Folate, a B complex, Liposomal C, Vitamin D, Vitmin E with Selenium, Zinc, Special Probiotics for this condition (I cannot eat anything fermented) Manaluka Honey, the trace minerals. I do not eat high histamine foods, I take enzymes for absorption, because mast cells in the stomach prevent absorption, gluten free, I tolerate fresh cheeses, cottage, mozzarella, scarpone, butter, I cannot do black teas, black or red pepper, cloves, cinnamon, coffee is a special coffee called Purity coffee, cannot do sunshine exposure, processed meats, soy sauces etc, I feel great compared to how I used to, but I am hungry for a lot of foods, I can get away with some tomato and a little fresh lemon juice if I take a special enzyme before I eat them, oh, and of course NAC, which I have been taking for years which my doc says has been protecting my lungs. Mast cells are in the GI tract, the respiratory system, and the skin. I manifested anaphylaxis in head to toe hives and vomiting, never had trouble breathing or throat closing, and that is thanks to the NAC. The shock came because i was drinking kombucha and had eaten a bacon lasagna, woke up with GERD from hell, and swallowed some Mylanta with Gas x, it said on the bottle if a rash occurred to contact Dr immediatly, rash? I looked like a burned Leper, then started vomiting,doc ordered me to the ER I had thought that all those fermented things were good for my gut, they are, but not for a person with this condition. She had tried to tell me about it, but I brushed her off, thinking my main problem was Lyme, so was not taking the anti histamines etc she advised. Well, after that crisis, I take all of her advice and feel so much better, even with the Lyme. Before the crisis about a week before, i had been doing a parasite cleanse, so between the herxing and the allergy to the Mylanta, it pushed me over the edge. I am not cured, but hardly have any reactions to anything other than some mild itchy skin once in awhile. High UV exposure would also send me to the er also.
I thank you for sharing...this is a very interesting read. I am aware of MCAS but had never done any research on how to remediate it. It sounds like you are doing very well and apparently your doctor has helped you out quite a bit.
Here is a little info on Lions Mane Mushrooms...Mike Adams severely cut his hand and this really healed the nerves quickly...interesting perhaps... https://naturalnews.com//2023-07-30-lions-mane-mushroom-benefits-brain-nervous-system.html
There also is a homeopathy called Histiminum...here is a link...I have used this pretty extensively...
https://www.youtube.com/c/drsauravarora
I actually am allergic to the sun and find if I can keep my D at about 60ng/ml I can slowly acclimate to the sun and don't break out in an itchy rash...I have also had cold hives (used the homeopathic Natrum Mur) and I have had Dermatographism and an anaphylactic reaction to a fire ant bite...so I can REALLY appreciate your hives...I think that is the worst thing ever....
Anyway, read or ignore...I am just throwing out some things out that MAY be of interest...I always love to learn about new illnesses and what people are doing to treat it...I am glad you are doing so well...hope others can learn from your knowledge and experience...God bless you and yours....
Thank you my dear friend. I just bought a box and ask u/penisse how to measure out 3 mg. With all these aches and pains I've been having lately, I've got to try something. Is there anything else I can mix it with besides the Aloe Vera? I have apple cider vinegar, but no aloe vera. Thanks friend.
Heat about 1/2 C. of water and dissolve 1/8 tsp. or 1/16 tsp. in the water. It dissolves so you don't really taste it. Add that mixture to a water bottle filled with water and you will hardly even notice it. You can drink the water as needed. Do it for 5 days on and 2 days off.
You can do more or less...some people just use a pinch in water...read the comments under the borax article...they are interesting. It should work fairly quickly...good luck...
Thank you friend. I didn't know if I was supposed to drink this everyday or what, but now I know its 5 days on and 2 off. This shouldn't interact with any of my blood pressure medication should it? I also take a medication to slow down my heart rate as my heart races continually without it, so I hope it doesn't do anything with that especially. But I've got to do something with these 'stiff' achy bones of mine. The Ibuprofen 800 mg that I take for my back doesn't help anything so I'm game. Thanks again. Have a much blessed day.
I use a pinch in coffee. By itself, the boracic acid tastes slightly salty and slightly bitter.
Thanks. I've always got to have my 'coffee' eye opener in the morning.
I think you were the one who recommended Borax for my trigger finger. Weren't you? Boron is also good as a testosterone booster. I was thinking of maybe buying some from iHerb on my next supplement purchasing go-around.
Try it you'll like it....haha....but it is effective for arthritis and I am sure many other things...the first article talks about that....
An elipsis (...) indicates redacted words so I'm interested to see your complete text without those redactions.
I know my writing is unconventional and I truly love language and the written word, however, when I write what and how I am thinking that is how it comes out. Perhaps it does not fit in a traditional way of writing but I am not conventional and I just write how I think and feel. It is just me and I truly am sorry if it is painful to read. BTW I read that you are 72 and I want you to know that I am also. Can you teach an old dog new tricks? It's difficult at best. I guess if I wrote everything out I would have run on sentences or super compound sentences. I really don't know. I always use 3... because three is my favorite number. I dare say you are not tied to convention, are you? Please don't clip my wings or I won't be able to fly! My mind never seems to turn off and I think so much faster than I can write. This has been very painful to write this all out properly. Have a good morning where you are at and I hope you are not affected by the fires.
I'd like to to save you the trouble of typing 3 periods instead of one. Alternatively, the single character that represents a break is the—emdash. However, it, too, looks childish/uneducated if you overuse it. I desperately want posts on this forum/board to show intelligence. It's bad enough to be perceived as a "conspiracy theorist" without also being labelled "illiterate".
I will consider your thoughts even though I am neither illiterate nor uneducated.
I feel so extraordinary, something's got a hold on me. I get this feeling I'm in motion, a sudden sense of liberty.

Interesting choice. I guessed it was Depeche Mode, but I looked it up.
Thank God for Q. The cabal has robbed a lot of living from our lives. Even if we ourselves manage to escape the working stiff rat-race wage slavery, many of our friends have succumbed, depriving all of us of sources of joy.
Yeah, I suppose Depeche Mode is similar to New Order, since they're both synth rock from the '80s. Since I live in Japan, my interaction with other foreigners is extremely limited. I think I'm the only unvaxxed person in my group. My wife and I are in agreement on the issue, and our daughter will get no vaccines ever again. It's about 8 years since my daughter and I got a flu shot. Never again. Meanwhile, the dipshits I had to endure during the summertime while schools were out were saying how many times they got sick from "Covid." Meanwhile, my family and i have never tested "positive." Even the one guy who should have known better got the first two jabs at his ignorant mother's insistence. I think Japan is something like 80% jabbed. At the very least, I hope real estate will become far cheaper in the coming years as the bodies hit the floor...
I think the Japanese are probably better off even if they're vaxxed, since the FDA hasn't been shoveling "enriched" cereals and an unhealthy food pyramid into either their minds or their stomachs for the last 70 years. That, plus natto, green tea and ivermectin. Wasabi might kill off a lot of bad stuff too- I wouldn't be surprised. Conformist culture probably causes other problems though ...
I think that real estate will be only a small part of the changes coming. Stay sane, and well, fren.
Yeah, conformist culture is why my daughter still wears that damned sidewalk decoration/fearmask on her face at school. She knows it's BS but she does it anyway and my wife won't back me up. I'm afraid it's killing her IQ.
https://vigilantnews.com/post/mask-toxicity-german-study-exposes-dangers-of-co2-re-breathing-neuron-death-learning-impairment
It could be killing her lungs, too. Those basic masks are made from sprayed fibers and glue. The fibers come loose, she breathes them in, and 10 - 30 years later she has incurable Interstitial Lung Disease. (Look it up.)
Ouch. I feel for ya.
Psalm 121:7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: He shall preserve thy soul.

Hi there, Slechta! Thank you!
