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
Alright, I'm outa the loop here.
What has caused Tim Poole, and conservative media talking heads come out and say they were fooled by Russia disinformation, or is this a lefty campaign...

Ahhh ok. Thanks!
Just had a random thought which might be nothing but just felt like putting it out there..
We're watching a movie...
the Reagan movie just came out.
I just read a comment (it was actually on a video of somebody watching South Park, for what it's worth. LOL) that said -
"The guy who shot Reagan actually didn't read the book he saw "Taxi Driver" co-starring Jodi Foster (who was twelve at the time) and became obsessed with her and thought shooting Reagan would impress her...."
Recent trump incident. I wonder if this was just a wash rinse repeat and if dude who became the face of it thought it would impress someone and was actually gonna survive through it. I don't even wanna get into what really happened that day cause idk and its already a whole rabbit hole. but...
History repeats itself often. That said, I've heard the movie is worth seeing so I might actually go the theater in I dont know how many years again lol
I guess anything is possible these days. But if it’s true that Crooks dad was involved somehow with all of this did he intentionally sacrifice his son? He had to have known he would be killed.
I went inside a Circle K yesterday, for the first time in probably six months to a year. Candy bars were $2.99 🤯 I thought I entered the twilight zone. The small candy bars were $2.19
I remember when they were $.79 and $1.29 🤷♀️
Well let me be the yin to your yang
went to my local grocery store today (Price Chopper if you're a fren in my neck of the woods...so you know usually youre spending more than you would at Walmart kek) and managed to slide away with a 12 pack of soda and an energy drink for 5 dollars. I didn't even know either of them were on a discount so that was a happy accident as Bob Ross would put it.
Yep, candy prices have become ridiculous. If you want just one or two bars check grocery store checkout area. Many times it’s two for $ or bogo. As ash 🐶 said, they aren’t healthy. I believe Hershey brand is made in china. If I can’t fight my craving I get Lindt brand it’s got soy, I try to avoid, but it’s a little better quality. Plus the tax on candy is higher than the other food tax.
We’ve switched to Feastables. Delicious.
I’ve never heard of this.
Availabke at WalMart by the registers. I recommend the almond.
...they are really "bad" for your health now...
...howls...
I know… I totally get it because like I said it’s been six months or a year since I’ve actually been inside a Circle K. If I have a sweet tooth, I bake my own baked goods, so I know what’s in them.
I think it was last Halloween. We had a harvest festival at our church, and I got some free candy. I don’t think I even ate it because it didn’t taste the same. My mom said the same thing. So not only is the candy more expensive now, it doesn’t even taste good.
It’s no secret here I have a sweet tooth, even after changing my diet. I used to love brown sugar and would taste it when baking. I tasted some recently and it tasted like chemicals. Funny after you stop eating the toxic food it doesn’t taste good anymore.
This is so spot on!
The other day, I bought a pizza special that includes a drink, so I got a Dr Pepper. When I got home I told my mom this tastes likes chemicals. 🤢
Because we don’t eat and drink this way every day, it’s so obvious.
My senior year I drank Dr Pepper a lot and loved it. My daughter & husband still drink it occasionally. It’s so gross now.
I occasionally enjoy a soda especially in summer, a few years ago, (more than a few but time flies when you are as old as I am), I stopped drinking or eating anything with high fructose corn syrup. After doing that for just the first 6 months, I was at a BBQ and thats all the kind of soda they had in the big cooler, I drank liked 2 sips of the high fructose and it tasted toxic to me. When I want a coke, like the 3 I drink in a year, the local general store carries "mexican" cokes, made with cane sugar, and the bottles are glass, in a "normal" sized bottle, 12oz.
It’s amazing how bad things taste when you stop consuming poison. I used to drink diet Sierra Mist and Diet Pepsi if I taste anything with artificial sweeteners it’s so gross. Ketchup tastes very sweet now and strangely mustard tastes better than ever. I saw a post today saying the number one baby formula has 42% corn syrup and the next ingredient is soy, it’s Abbott not sure of the name, probably simulac. Great way to get babies addicted to sugar.
I stopped nursing at 5 months, he just wanted to do it all the time, and I thought he was not getting enough, luckily I had a great ob gyn and pediatrician who recommended only goats milk in a bottle, I could not always get fresh, even though I live in a small farm area, it was in such demand, there is a powdered goats mild, oh I remember middle of the night feedings with me mixing it up in the kitchen at 2am!! Processed foods, after eating whole foods, tastes horrible, there was not a lot of it when I was growing up, but I remember eating baloney sandwiches and loving it when I was a kid, I tried some awhile back, uggggh!
I breast feed six weeks and milk dried up. The doctor had already told me I needed to switch to formula because she was under weight. This was 1992, I didn’t think about reading the ingredients. Hopefully the formula wasn’t as unhealthy as today. Thankfully she’s always been healthy. That is certainly a good doctor to suggest goat milk. I’m not sure of your age, bologna used to taste great. Growing up in the 70s most of the food wasn’t toxic like today. Most sandwich meat, bacon, sausage and hot dogs has corn syrup, high fructose and sugar. I tried a hotdog this summer after many months of eating burger, butter, eggs & steak. It was disgusting, tasted like sugar. I couldn’t believe it. I had been craving a hotdog for months. It was such a letdown. Also most sausage has some sort of grain for binding. My local sausage company that I’ve eaten since I was a kid has grits as an ingredient. I knew about most toxins but didn’t know about meats filled with sugar and corn.
...that would "bug" me...
Yep 🙌
If you've been demoralized thinking i've been at this forever, and it's taking so long, just remember there have been people doing this for decades.
If people doing this for decades isn't enough to help you understand, Christ has been working to wake people up for 2000 years.
The key takeaway is patience is a virtue that will help you grow immensely strong.
2 Peter 3:8-9
But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
a quote I heard years ago, in my maybe mid 20s? and it only gains value with its antiquity...
"Growing old is a privilege denied to many"
If you're one of a very small percentage, you will live a decade.
Imagine what the world looked like 100 years ago, and what it will look like 100 years from now.
It'll still be chaos, it'll still be beautiful, and it'll still be hard to imagine to anyone who isn't part of those years.
We're here, we're in whatever this is. And this is something big.
Great advice and very true. I can’t imagine being awake half my life. Sometimes I wish I wasn’t awake because my brain was working 24/7. In the long run it’s better to be aware. We have to find what keeps us sane to achieve a balance. I’m finally at the point of acceptance that things aren’t as we were told. It helps that I’ve always been a pessimist and questioned things.
Edit: just saw this and it’s spot on. https://greatawakening.win/p/1994os3B6D/awakening-is/c/
Psalm 44:23a - Awake! Why are you sleeping, O Lord. Rouse yourself! https://www.bible.com/bible/59/psa.44.23 Please remember the context of this verse.

RE: Qdrop #111 & #142
I'm just going to spitball a little here.... wondering what "truth" would put people in the hospital - whether they have a mental breakdown, stroke or heart attack from the shock - What revelation would be so shocking to cause that, given what we anons already know?
The extent of absolute gore/horror and prevalence of pedophilia, human trafficking and sacrifice, complete with activities similar to frazzled.rip
Revelation of earth/human game theory, revealing the repetitive control and steering of humanity via the proverbial hidden hand, who/what is doing it and why.
The confirmation that you and everyone you love is nothing more than a farmed product, from cradle to grave AND beyond, harvested for your energy.
The revelation that you and everyone else on this planet is a fallen angel, quarantined here until you've fully repented and changed your wicked ways, before going to final judgement.
????
Again.... just spitballing possibilities... What sayeth you?
...distinct possibilities...
If you wish to argue the point, just check out "Elohim" in any Hebrew dictionary. It's a plural word.
Also just imagine that you've believed in the God of the Bible all your life and you suddenly discover that you're an Elohim worshipper. That would be pretty darn shocking.
(This has nothing to do with Jesus. He was a good guy.)
Hey, don't shoot. I'm spitballing too!
Yup ... definitely a possibility.
The whole, "Let us go down there and confuse their language..." thing pissed me off pretty good years ago...as did Isaiah 45:6-7, to which I say, F-you for f'ing with me/us like this is all just a fickle game.
...the Elohim uses gold and needs gold for their existence...
...part of the genetic "tinkering" instilled a high drive for homo sapiens to acquire gold...
Yup, well said.
TaQo, you’ve always got me thinking too hard 😘.

Acts 2:22-24
22 “Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know— 23 this Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men. 24 God raised him up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it.
Make Your Most Important Preparations First. My Morning Bible Read Was Acts 2:14-41, Peter Addresses the Crowd. Verse 40 says, "With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.” "
