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
Just listened to the guy from Kenya report to the U.N. that he just visited Port Au Prince and that peace in Haiti can be realized.

The bots and comments around Israel carpet bombing Gaza and now Lebanon are sick. To think many of these people consider themselves Christian’s…. Truly bloodthirsty and disgusting, I can’t imagine people writing such things. I have to wonder what type of operation the Israeli’s are running on these comment boards, bots and payed comments I bet. They call for the extermination of everyone in the Middle East, but you can’t even post the word “Jew” without being blocked. These people are psychopaths, I hope they are bots because if they are American then they are not my brother…. I want nothing to do with them.
I agree..I remember this saying or testimony of Christians after death or NDE and Jesus told them "I never knew you'. Jesus specifically said the 1st commandment to obey is "Love thy neighbors".
A small percentage of the population support Israel. Ask anyone and they'll tell you how shocked and disgusted they are with the Genocidal and Terrorist behaviour...
Would anybody be so kind as to tag me when Trump announces his rally in springfield? I want to know ASAP because I would like to go to that rally.
So it was almost time for me to move out, and i needed a new place to stay.
I had called around over and over. my first choice turned me down dozens of times.
Finally the day came around when I didn't know where I was going to sleep that night. Packed up all my stuff.
I didn't panic... I know that things tend to work out for me.
Took all my belongings and went to get some tea and chicken.
Watched videos for a couple hours, played some games on my phone.
at around 11:40am, I decide to make some calls.
Started with my first choice. The place I had been calling for months, over and over.
Boom. Accepted. First call of the day. First choice.
This is how God's timing works, frens. Stop anticipating your problems. Just be ready for your blessings.
Amen, fren! So happy for you!
The same thing more or less happened to me as well. When you feel that peace in your heart, you just know somehow things will work out because you're living in God's grace. His timing is always perfect! Faith is walking on stormy water knowing you won't drown.
So happy for you. God is never late but just right on time. I know sometimes people think I have a don’t care attitude. I care trust me, but I give it over to God first thing every morning. That’s how HE works. 👍
By not worrying and being at peace you're acting on faith. Amen!
Faith over Fear always 🙏🏻
Taking 3 days off from the news to "detox" and gonna check out some places in Central PA and West Virginia [Country Roads intensifies] to move out to. However i have to give my love and energy to everyone here. Ya'll make me feel like I'm not alone and i gotta say turned me back to a Christian man.
Thank you, you crazy sons of bitches.
PA? Central PA? That is like saying Chicago or Trenton NJ, lol
Stay out of PA.
I am trying to get out of here.
LOL! Ive heard a few of my regulars go "No you don't want PA. Im taking my ass south!"
I am in the process of the same thing.
I thought this was pretty good - it showed up at the end of the trailer for Vindicating Trump - and it's not an obvious segue or related...
There were some interesting ideas, keys, pointings and insights, that I thought just about everyone could get a little something for themselves on their journey:
Nurse Dies And Encounters God; What She Is Told Will Shock You
For instance:
I loved the video ❤️
She finally did it. I finally got through to my DIL and she went and registered to vote. She even took a snapshot of the registration and emailed it to me yesterday. My reply was, THANK GOD and NOW don't forget to go vote and vote early. You will drive by there everyday on your way home from work. I will not give up. Sometimes guilt will drive a person to do the right thing.
I am also ambivalent about voting early, thinking that it gives democrats extra time to mess with the votes you’ve “banked”. However I do remember the mess Arizona made by corrupting the votes on vote day. Don’t know.
According to the Charlie Kirk show which I am a faithful watcher of; IF you vote early in person, you BANK your vote and can TRACK it to see that your vote counted and WHO you voted for. You can do this every day if you want, right up to and after election. So I'm going to do this as the RNC with Laura Trump says, IF you vote early they will get a 'heads up' that you voted and will NOT have to search out those voters who SAY they will and are going to vote, but then somehow do not vote at all. I got a letter from the RNC with Laura and checked the box saying I will be voting early in person so that they will follow through to know I actually voted and can move on to follow those who haven't.
lol this is your only comment on this website.
When this crap of Democrats changing the rules goes away, I will once again vote only on election day. Until then, we are playing by the rules of the opposing team; and if voting early at the Sheriff's Office and banking our votes for a WIN is the way to go, then that is what I and my family will do. Thank you for your advice, but I WILL NEVER VOTE BY MAIL. I always vote in person.
Here in Oklahoma I feel very comfortable voting in person on election day.
But I understand Oklahomans are blessed with correctly sized voting precincts, and precinct workers who care about what they are doing... whereas others may not be so blessed.
How blessed you are. I live in Kentucky which is a red state; however, our Governor is a Democrat and our AG, SoS and on down are Republicans. Andy Beshear is trying everything to change our state back to blue, so I don't trust voting on election day only this year. That is why I'm banking my vote early in person for the first time in my life. I can hardly wait until Trump comes back and puts our elections back to normal again. If there is such a thing.
You are wise with common sense. I admire you a lot!
Will pray for you and all those in Kentucky to use their votes with such integrity. As we should everywhere.
Thank you my friend. I think we should all say a prayer on November 5th for a great outcome. God bless.
I'm with you.
Same way in South Carolina. I so look forward to go and stand in line and chat with my neighbors in my community.
Does anyone have a name and contact information for a reliable and honest overseas pharmacy. In England if that's possible. Many thanks.
do a search for poster 20_gauge who used to post lists of overseas pharmacies here, regularly. Hasn't posted in a while.

There's an organization called Autism Speaks.
Today I realized that everyone who hates Autism Speaks is on the Left.
Are Autism Speaks actually on OUR side?

Interesting. I don't know if this means they're MAGA, but this is certainly a good sign.
I remain unconvinced, but this is a point in their favor.
I agree. It is hard to trust an organization.

Friday Poem... Christopher Bursk - Working the Stacks

The breakdown of the family is something that psychology has done, by their manipulation of language, their desire to run a turf war with the rest of the plastic sciences to be seen as the new secular priestly caste and using their clients to cure them of their psychological issues.
