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 evolving
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
Aside from Flo-Naze, look into lion's mane mushroom powder. It is known to rebuild neurological damage in the brain. I bought some for my wife, but she wasn't interested in taking it. Go figure. I recommended it to my friend who has MS and after a month she was able to wiggle her toes. It may or may not work for you. I was taking it for a while because it was going to go to waste, but it didn't really do much for me. Then again, I am not in such a situation that I'd benefit from it.
Being colorblind, I see color, but it's mostly red/green/brown that can trick my eyes. Fluorescent colors can also be tricky. But it's not like I live a life bereft of color as some may imagine. Taking those splotchy tests, a normal person can see the number 16 while I'll see the number 32. It's weird how rods and cones work. It's exclusive to the Y chromosome, so women can't be colorblind genetically.
As for iron beads, you can find them in any craft store really. When I still lived in America, I came across them at a Joann's craft store and thought, "Hey, I could use these to recreate video game sprites." So that's what I started doing, and it turns out that I stumbled upon something that many people do. There's even a subReddit called BeadSprites or something.
I’m not sure if I replied🤦🏻♀️ Thanks for the suggestions. In the past I have taken several mushroom tinctures (liquid herbs). I’m trying not to take herbs right now. Haven’t had a cup of tea in five months. I’ve been eating carnivore since beginning of the year and trying to avoid plants. Except coffee, I’ve turned into a coffee drinker. It’s a long story, essential plants are supposedly toxic. Research carnivore diet for more information. I’m sure I’ll add tea back at some point. Because I don’t know yet what plants could have been causing health problems I want to do this longer and add herbs back gradually.
