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)

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
If anyone uses GIMP could you please check something for me and let me know what you find?
On my machine with old software and G'MIC addon, I discovered the star setting for the brush tool at default settings is inverted.. If I change the angle back to 0 it would be proper upright. If it's true there's probably an occultist or satanist that got that through.
https://files.catbox.moe/w1lfyv.PNG
Literally all the angles on the other stamps are set to 0. Only the star gets turned 17.5 degrees. Looks intentional.
Got gimp, but never use it. If you give me quick steps to reproduce, happy to try.
I'm not sure how the new versions look, but here's something quick
When you open it up on the left side look for the paintbrush. If it's not a paintbrush it might default to the pencil (click and hold icon to see other options)
Following this picture https://files.catbox.moe/1jiv5m.PNG
RED- Select the tool
YELLOW- Click Tool Options
GREEN - Click the Brush box to select the star
After the star is selected, check the Angle it provides below the brush selection
Thank you! I can't really ask any other community for this lol
Yep, exactly the same. All the other brushes are at 0 degrees, but the star brush is 17.5.
My gimp version 2.10.30 - default version installed with Ubuntu 22.
Thank you for verifying that for me!
We got em!
I am tempted to dig into the git checkins to see who actually made that change. But I am not familiar with the gimp file structure, nor where I can find the files for the brush shapes. Perhaps a project for a lazy sunday.
Interesting I found this
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/2582
"We haven't touched the star brush since 2.8, I think. But I can indeed see it is reversed."
I didn't know that was a thing, if you end up getting around to it I'd love to hear what you find!
Thanks again for taking the time to look into this!!
Okay, so I dug further into the source of GIMMP. I found out that the brushes were revamped in 2012, which was the GIMP 2.8 version. Before this, it was in a file called Diagonal-Star.vbr and did not have the 17.5 degrees rotation.
In 2.8, These files were entirely removed, and new files created with the new revamped design, and as part of it the star brush moved to Basic/Star.vbr which had the 17.5 degrees rotation.
The person who made the commits is Alexia Death and the comments says it was in collaboration with the user called Ramon Miranda
Here is a blog post talking about this revamp.
Here are the commit logs for the file:
The last line +17.500000 is the angle of rotation.

Check the notables daily and get in the trenches when we're being shelled with data and anons will stay ahead of the pundits as they have this entire time. Afterall, most of them steal their content from the various boards and nerve center anyways.

Hello Fren πΈ
wanted to relax after work and get rid of some stress from real life stuff, been scrolling Amazon prime tv shows for the last hour and can't seem to be interested in watching anything with humans at all..ended up picking Naruto anime to watch for the night. What's wrong with me? lol
Prayer request for a FL court case coming up soon on a foster child that the system failed. We donβt have high hopes for her but we had to do the right thing anyway. Our hope is to make a difference for other kids within a very broken foster system.

Imagine during Jesus' time. if it was really 2024 years ago. They have names for certain diseases like Leprosy..and do they have doctors as well? Do they have flu, chicken pox, a million different names for every ailments or joint pains? Instead of saying i have this and this, they'd just say "I don't feel well." Then they seek Jesus and were healed. No money required, x-ray, medicines, vaccines, prescriptions....
HE was and still is the greatest healer of all time. β€οΈππ»
Amen, Fren
I would say that Jesus is still with us.
yes, and I think that's why Q said; referring to Jesus' family/DNA
#4966 What is coded in your DNA? Who put it there? Why? Mankind is repressed. We will be repressed no more. Information is knowledge. Knowledge is power. Information is power. How do you protect your DNA? There is a war for your DNA. Protect your DNA. Ascension. Q
I think you may be onto something right there.
thanks and yes, it's bigger than we can imagine.

and one about the DNA
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16408222/
something with the 17 Y chromosome...
"DNA samples were collected from 1,125 men, bearing 43 different surnames, and each was genotyped for 17 Y-chromosome short tandem repeat (STR) loci. A highly significant proportion of the observed Y-chromosome diversity was found between surnames demonstrating their demarcation of real and recent patrilineal kinship. On average, a man has a 30-fold increased chance of sharing a 17 STR Y-chromosome"

I was surprised. I never knew about the buildings or the DNA results. Fascinating!
A thought about what may be the "precipice event".
Kaliningrad is a Russian exclave located on the Baltic Sea, between Lithuania and Poland. The Kaliningrad city and Oblast is an isolated territory, roughly 412 miles west of the Russian border. It's the only ice-free Russian port on the Baltic Sea. Population is 500,000. It's also the home port of Russia's North Sea Navy.
Kaliningrad Oblast was part of the USSR, but when the Soviet Republic collapsed in 1991, it became separated from Russia by now independent nations, notably Poland and Lithuania, which are part of NATO.
Kaliningrad belonged to Germany, and was German territory up until 1945. After WWII, the Soviet Union occupied Kaliningrad and expelled the German population. Kaliningrad should rightfully belong to Germany (or Poland, who controlled it before Germany), and so should be rightful property of the European Union and be NATO Territory.
Russia has taken over Crimea, which was Ukrainian territory until recently, as well as seized other Eastern Ukrainian territories.
I bet the "precipice event" will involve the European Union and NATO declaring legal ownership of "occupied Kaliningrad", which should be rightfully called "Koenigsberg". Note in the agreement (below) that Kaliningrad was declared the property of the SOVIET UNION. It was NEVER given to Russia, and was never officially declared to be Russian property. Many former Soviet properties became independent nations since 1990... so there is precedence for Kaliningrad to become either independent or to return to German ownership.
Under the Potsdam Agreement of 1 August 1945, the city became part of the Soviet Union pending the final determination of territorial borders. This final determination eventually took place on 12 September 1990 when the Treaty on the Final Settlement with Respect to Germany was signed.
"VI. CITY OF KOENIGSBERG AND THE ADJACENT AREA The Conference examined a proposal by the Soviet Government that pending the final determination of territorial questions at the peace settlement, the section of the western frontier of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics which is adjacent to the Baltic Sea should pass from a point on the eastern shore of the Bay of Danzig to the east, north of Braunsberg β Goldep, to the meeting point of the frontiers of Lithuania, the Polish Republic and East Prussia.
The Conference has agreed in principle to the proposal of the Soviet Government concerning the ultimate transfer to the Soviet Union of the city of Koenigsberg and the area adjacent to it as described above, subject to expert examination of the actual frontier."
The President of the United States and the British Prime Minister supported the proposal of the Conference at the forthcoming peace settlement.
Now, onto the "Precipice Event". I bet the EU and NATO will declare legal ownership of Kaliningrad, just as Russia is claiming legal ownership of Crimea and Eastern Ukraine. We will see sudden NATO and EU moves to blockade Kaliningrad, both Naval blockade and land based through Lithuania and Poland. No goods in or out, no flights in or out. We may also see NATO troops trying to move in to secure the territory.
The whole thing would be to set up a bargain with Russia to end the Ukrainian War; Kaliningrad is Russian territory only if Crimea and the Eastern Oblasts of Ukraine are returned to Ukraine.
Of course, this would bring the entire situation to the brink of WWIII and possible nuclear exchange.... the precipice.
One thing to watch is that Lithuania has recently developed plans See Article since July for evacuation or relocation of up to 1/4th of it's 2.5 Million population, mainly women, children, elderly and disabled... in case of war. Why only Lithuania? There is no other NATO country making such plans.
The precipice standoff and subsequent threats exchanged, military mobilization, national security implementation (including possible Martial Law or National Curfews, military on the streets) might be used as the excuse to delay or cancel the U.S. Presidential election in November.
That would be an aggressive move by NATO and the EU, but it would be the only way to save face vs. suffering a complete beating by Russian forces in Ukraine. :>)
This frog has been watching the region closely. There's been a lot of big talk but no action, which is a good thing. Lithuania espoused cutting off the rail connection to Kaliningrad and dropped it. All the Baltic States have also backpedaled hard with calls for their own specific military escalation. Will report when and if the regional local news action becomes post worthy.
The precipice you hypothesized of EU seizing control... well that would essentially be Crimea 2.0. The Russians have a Naval port in Kaliningrad, same as they did in Crimea. The RU constitution specifically states for that reason, plus the Russian citizenry there too... that they must and will stop annexation of the Federation and it's protect it's people's.
We all know these people are stupid, but even the local neighboring populations know this intimately. They will not risk their own territory and populations for the sake of seizing what is essentially a small tourist, shipping, and military hub. It would be like another country attempting to attack and seize Norfolk + Colonial Williamsburg in terms of size and scope.
Crimea and the Donbass regions held referendums since the people have been wanting to join Russia for a very long time (ever since 2014 for sure). So in reality Russia didn't actually "sieze" any territories - they just liberated them.
I don't know what the population in Kalingrad is like, but if they are mostly Polish/German and want to join Poland or Germany, I dont think Russia would have any issues. However, if its mostly Russian at this point, and NATO tries to mess with them, that would be an issue.
But, "Precipice" is not just one event. Its all the stuff that has been setup for a while - including Financial Collapse, fake WW3. What you are suggesting could perhaps be one of the last dominoes for one of the theatres of the fake WW3.
It's nearly all Russian population currently since the SMO began. In non war time life, the place is a glorified tourist destination, shipping hub, and the Russians main access to the Baltic Sea militarily.
Yeah, in that case NATO can't just hoodwink everyone and simply claim the territory. But looks like we are witnessing what their real plan of escalation is:
https://x.com/RealPepeEscobar/status/1834286912044957958
Yeah, it's definitely concerning as most of the EU hierarchy and representatives are globohomo & swampy as it gets.
I don't think Latvia or Estonia have the balls to act independently even if given a gazillion euros and the green light to go ahead. Poland and Lithuania possibly, but both have scaled back their hostile rhetoric this past year compared to past threats and stupid ideas.
I remain positive but ever vigilant. There has been good news regarding individual member states and this very issue. Germany recently stated they would have no part in sending troops and or using Germany as a launch pad. I believe Fico made the same statement for Slovakia a few days before. Finland is back-stepping on its aggressive tones, same for several other member states.
Thank you for all the information. Very interesting thoughts, plus I learned things I didnβt know.
just a random thought people may not be thinking of, but the countries 250th anniversary is coming up. who would people prefer to have as our leader, an oppressive authoritarian marxist? or DJT?
I am planning a trip between July 2025 and July 2026, when DJT has promised there will be a year long celebration!

Guys, this current Biden(and his doubles) is a whitehat. 100%
They(cabal) replaced Biden after they saw he wasnt able to get anything done for them policy-wise(military in control).
This re-signing of EO 18484 by "Biden" solidified his position as a whitehat or controlled party.
Look at how giddy he was with Trump shaking Camel's hand. Trump wished her farewell.
Kamala and Schumer etc. are all that is remaining of the cabal puppets and they are freaking the f out.
The Biden has always been white hat. Why do you think he wasnt able to get anything done for them, or further more, mucked up everything he did?
They only realised it when it was pretty late and had to bring in another puppet.
I used to giggle at people who suggested Biden was a white hat. After seeing him smile and put on MAGA yesterday, Iβm coming around. Not only did he have to do that by choice, he had a team of people take him to a place full of Trump supporters.
Yeah, the clues have been there from the day he was "inaugurated". I dont blame people for not realising, the matrix can be pretty deeply imprinted for some of us.
In the end what matters is that we all break out of the matrix.
At the time of the inauguration even the best of us were skewed in our baking efforts. That was a confusing season for anons. It's fulfilling to witness at this point in the timeline.
Yep, but also looking back to that time, its like looking back to our kindergarden days where we used to believe outlandish things. It shows how far we have grown in just 4 years
well at least you we happy about it;)
I used to get down-voted, lectured, etc. whenever I would say JB is a WH. always amazed me because I think it's So obvious, he has that same twinkle as DJT.

So what was Osama really going for with 9/11? Was he retard who thought Americans would just say "plz don't attack us anymore we'll do what you want" or was it an evil genius plan that eventually did succeed corrupting the West?

Research on fenugreek's affects on testosterone:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5278660/
Results: Free testosterone levels were improved up to 46% in 90% of the study population. 85.4% of the study population showed improvements in sperm counts. Sperm morphology improved in 14.6% of volunteers. Majority of the subjects enrolled in the study demonstrated improvements in mental alertness and mood. Furthermore, cardiovascular health and libido were significantly improved. Extensive safety parameters were evaluated which included blood chemistry data. No significant changes were observed in serum lipid function, cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL and LDL levels, hemogram (CBC), hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity.

Isn't it interesting that the Brits had their election this year on OUR Independence day, (Same election where ReformUK did pretty good, all things considered!) and now, the US election is on Guy Fawkes day?
And next Australian Federal Election is on the day Titanic was launched!
God's timeline is truly amazing. I recently explained the phenomenon to some normie coworkers using the television show Lost.
It's a bit like the numbers used in the hatch recurring in all of the individual characters lives in the past and subsequently all of their lives intersecting and the numbers continuing to occur through some mechanism of divine fate.
Using the show Lost is a great way to communicate many research topics to normies into something they can understand.
