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
Taking bets? Do they let the finacial collapse happen with Biden or Trump.
Hopefully not under trump because that would put a lot of sheep back to sleep. They don’t need anything to sway them back to the dark side.
It might be Biden, or it might be when they are playing the musical chairs, but definitely not with Trump, publicly, at the helm.
Anyone know how to remove meta data from photos when posting on social media?
Windows properties should allow you to remove metadata.
You can also upload it through Imgur or whatever first, at least they used to remove metadata. Could be a fun thing to test real quick later.
What about on iPhone?
No clue! I am unfamiliar with Apple products; you might need to use an intermediary like an image upload site
Thanks fren!
Do we have any deltas on when this is going to be over with? I'm exhausted!

The 8 year plan will end Oct 28th 2025.
I hope the interest rates come down before then!
Its like the guy being thrown off the cliff saying I hope they have a picnic mat at the bottom!
hahahah
Lol, you know we don't! HOLLLLLD.
Well written
In the Garden of Eden it was only Adam and Eve...no one else...no family. They were innocent because they were sinless. When they sinned, they were expelled from the Garden and the many adverse attitudes you lay out are all as a result of our sin nature. It is sad that the love of God through Jesus Christ is not more evident in fallen mankind...it is truly our only salvation as a human race.
You're bringing the Garden of Eden philosophical heat lately, and I appreciate it. Living in the Garden is a perspective I often think about, and aspire to.
Your assessment is right: it is difficult in a world of sin. Easier with a complete submission to God through our Lord Jesus Christ. 🙏
Any Fenben users here? Wondering about your side effects, if any.
Got some very uncomfortable gas, headache - hoping that is a good sign?
You could be having some herxheimer reaction which is die off of parasites that creates certain toxins in the body. Are you seeing any parasites in your stool? That would indicate some die off. My husband is taking 2 Tablespoons of the goat liquid FBZ for 5 days on - 2 days off and he has not had any adverse reactions. Perhaps take some papaya tablets for the gas and rub peppermint oil on your temples for the headache or do some research on herxheimer reaction...good luck...
Well...hubby takes the FBZ goat liquid for cancer and I take the IVM horse paste for good health so we have got a regular farm fest going on...I neigh and he bleats...but we seem to understand each other...🤣...
Well...he is also taking the traditional treatment for prostate cancer that has metastasized...very slightly...but nonetheless. That treatment blocks testosterone so that is under 10 and should be as high as 200. So his PSA has gone from 20 down to under 5. But I believe the FBZ is actually killing the cancer cells...he feels good but there are side effects of such low testosterone...I think they only scan once a year. I wish I had a way to tell if it is gone yet...but I believe it is. He is doing the Tippens protocol with correctly adjusted FBZ. He looks good and generally feels good so it must be doing something. But he also takes a lot of supplements so he does well with that.
Thanks I'll try it! No visuals yet..... but I have had herxes b4 with Candida detoxes and yes, feels similar.
Prayer Garden Question of the Day
What is righteous anger vs us just wanting justice to be served in our timing. How does righteousness anger express itself while still being in love? Any other thoughts or verses about righteous anger
Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him. 51 And behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword and struck the servant2 of the high priest and cut off his ear. 52 Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place. For hall who take the sword will perish by the sword. 53 Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels<
I am gonna be asking basic bible question every so often here in general chat. I look forward to hearing everyone's thoughts
Well, you pretty much summed it up in my eyes with the scripture you quoted.
I try to leave righteous anger alone for the most part. I'm not qualified to judge as God is. Granted, I'm flawed and fail to do so, but I will then try to reflect and pray on it and give myself over to God.
I think you and I are probably pretty simpatico on this, from what I've read of your thoughts. 🙏✌️
Great stuff brother. Yes we do both seem pretty simpatico.
Hope all is well with u bro. God wins. Love u
Wasn't some E.O. Trump created supposed to expire last night? Did it get extended by Bidan?

This?
WARNING!!!!! Incoming Rant, So there saying the pubs don't have enough votes for an impeachment inquiry? YET!! there saying some don't see enough evidence after Comer shows the shell LLC corp's the Bank accounts the DM'S/emails and Bribem laughs in their face and says where's the money!,this is what were dealing with 2 corrupt political party's ,one gets it and has systematically taking down the other one by one,Nevaro's time is today. Dr Jan Halper says election receipts will be given at Trump's trial,IMO ,THEY WILL NOT BUY IT UNLESS JAG'S DO THE PRESENTING IN COURT. She also says there is a military plan ,there has to be 80+% of the populus like we've all heard from others,i'm wondering how they means/test such a thing,i'm guessing quantum computers that capture all data /cellphone/DM'S/emails/platform comments/videos/public symposiums/turnouts/metered vitriol up down/water cooler chat/ IDK!,just contemplating in my small Lil brain. Hopium talk, making assertions,echo chambering each other in one hand and defecating on a plane is another. cocktails@5
Hang on to your undies! No way this movie will end with impeachment of Biden at this point. There are lots of intricate moves necessary before they attempt to displace Biden.
Have to vent - Already sick of campaign ads on the radio. They're effing retarded. Do these morons not understand that, in general, we don't want to listen to negativity and people bashing each other? Their ads are focusing on division and emotions. It's just stupid. Maybe it's just me idk but I can't stand it.

Have a blessed day.
I just made the final payment to a credit card and will close that sucker asap. It was our only card debt until recently when I racked up a bit on another that will be able to be paid off more quickly now. All that just in time for my student loans to kick back in! I've applied for many jobs, and for people to be hurting for employees, I'm sure not getting any calls back!
We're making it, but it's tough!
The job market sucks...and I don't understand why when everyone needs help. Salaries have certainly not caught up to inflation...it is a very sad reality...
Don't close it. Cut it up if you think you'll use it again, but leave the account open to keep your utilization down. Closing it will hurt credit score, especially if it's an older account. Not financial advice, just experience.
I would just leave it open but get it. I want to close mine so bad based on my principles and what that company does, but it would hurt my credit history and utilization and drop my credit score. If your credit is just fine then go ahead and make your statement. Not that they would notice but it'll make you feel better kek
I don't even know where the card for it is. We haven't used it in so long. It's been difficult to pay off lately, but we've been chipping away.
What Dran says is, technically, solid financial advice. However, those of us who've been there know sometimes doing things by "the book" can lead to trouble i.e. falling back on that card in an emergency.
Better, I think, to perhaps keep the card for a short while while using every cent that went towards paying it monthly into an emergency cash savings. When I used to listen, I believe Dave Ramsey recommended $1500 - these days I'd personally bump it up to 3k.
Thinking further on it, probably cancel it since you already have another card open. Pay into that emergency savings ASAP, over all else. Then work on other debt, and eventually building credit.
Really, check out Dave Ramsey.
Beans and rice, rice and beans. 🙏
We have followed Dave Ramsey's advice and before him Larry Burkett. In our 46 years of marriage we have only had a mortgage or a car payment as any type of extended credit. We pay off any credit cards used monthly and have never been in debt other than house and cars which have been paid off for years. I was a stay at home mom with 5 kids and we knew how to pinch a penny...we had to to achieve financial freedom.
I see how tough it is on people today (even my kids) when the money just doesn't go as far as it used to. But God really does provide in some very surprising ways. Actually we love red beans and rice...
We remember someone saying you can live more easily off 90% of your earnings when you have given 10% first fruits to the Lord as opposed to living off 100% of your earnings. This has proven true. We have ALWAYS tithed and that is key. Someone once tried to outgive the Lord and he couldn't...exciting stuff...
I used to adhere to Dave's advice more solidly, but now it's so much tougher. Heck, even rice and beans cost more! I'm trying to find at least a part time job to pay off this debt, but it just isn't even happening. I fight to keep a meager savings. It seems so much is taken out of one of his checks, and of course it's when big bills are due, so we have to use a bit of savings until he gets paid again. Sloooowly but surely we're getting there. I trust the Lord to get us through. When I worked, we had a healthy savings account and wanted for nothing, but things are working against us now.
This economy sucks and the fact that he hasn't gotten a raise in years doesn't help at all!!
Thank you for your help!
I know our school system sucks but couldn't they at least have taught people basics! Like the difference btw there, their and they're? It just makes me sad that we have been so dumbed down, me included. California public schools were the worst when I was growing up in the Bay Area.
They were at the top when I went through. Sadly, they dropped immensely in time for my own children. Now, however, they are zombie factories.
And "it's" and "its". That one drives me crazy!
Hahaha...diff btwn your and you're....
I think maybe I could have been a genius if I had a better education. 🤓
Interesting ,make of it what you will https://www.bitchute.com/video/qkl77LTIv0g3/
No thanks.
Wait they didn't contact u as well. I thought all of us got phone calls 😂🤣😂
Q is doing custom voice mails on Cameo.
Did anyone watch the Charlie Kirk show yesterday? It was about boycotting ''LIBERTY SAFES" aka Gun Cabinets. It seems that if the FBI want access to your guns, they will call Liberty Safe Company and get your passcode to open your Safe. Charlie Kirk said to return your safes and ask for a full refund. We are going to Bud Light this company too.
Ok I was thinking..I don't think people bought safes At liberty..but at some store ..so the only way liberty can open safe is w that serial number..what if you copy down number (for emergency)..and grind that number off?
I don't know. They were talking about it again today on Charlie Kirk. He and the man that runs Public Sq.com were talking about it.

Devil's Advocate here with a hot take that will probably piss off GAW:
What is it about Oliver Anthony and his songs that makes it good?
Just finished Rich Men North Of Richmond. Good singing, but I heard much better, and I was not really impressed. Just a hillbilly bitching about his problems with a guitar.
His problems minor abuse at "some island"
For all those who are not impressed with his music, why don't you pick up a guitar and give it a shot using very limited musical equipment?
I'm dying to hear it....
John Lee Hooker was a true original and a genius in his purity of style.
Aw, Hot Dog!🌭, I think Led Zeppelin did country pretty good, as well!
Was never a big Zeppelin fan, but I liked a couple of their songs, and this would probably be my favorite.
I liked Robert Plant much better in The Honeydrippers. Too bad they only put out one album. :(
I agree, the Dread Zeppelin versions are much better. I love uncommon covers of common songs, when the artist takes it in a whole new direction.
Al Stewart even did it with one of his own songs. He and Peter White played such an excellent, rollicking version of Time Passages on just two guitars that you never even miss Alan Parsons' orchestrations and Phil Kenzie's sax! 😄
It's not my favorite style, by far, but I agree with the sentiment. (Others' remixes of it have been better, in my opinion.)
He said several things that were "extremely pregnant" in all of us. Plenty of things repressed - like pushing down against a heavy spring - that were released for the collective... Like a part of us was finally put out of misery after severely being repressed.
Somebody finally understood "me" regarding:
So that's essentially why the song took off...a good yardstick into people being fed up - some call this phenomenon, The Great Awakening
^^^^
Was formulating a reply. Don't need to now.....
Minors at "some island"
Definitely. Art will always reflect the current consciousness of humanity. The luciferians have been controlling mass culture through art (music, movies, art, literature). This song is a song of protest that is outside the luciferian entertainment industry. It strikes a cord in all freedom loving people who have HAD IT with this Godless system of control.
I love that quote! That's exactly what I was trying to say and Ayn says it so beautifully. She too is expressing how powerful Art is and its impact on the human soul. No wonder the fallen ones have highjacked Art for millennia.
I'm so excited to see the Art that will come out out the golden age of man that we are approaching. The NOBILITY OF The HUMAN SPIRIT will be able to SOAR, finally! ❤️
