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
Rules For the rest of the Site also accessible on the sidebar.

For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

God bless you for your participation.

Well, today I'm officially double illuminati, '66'. 😉🎉 As a present, please pray that SpouseAnon starts sleeping more than just 1-2 hours at a time, I'm exhausted! (How's that for a thinly-veiled prayer request? 😁) Love you all!
🛏😴
Prayers on the way fren.
Much appreciated, Pb. It's hard trying to get by on just a series of naps. Need the whole sleep cycle to actually feel well rested. At this point, even just four straight hours would be a blessing!
My gym has a steam room,after doing that I sleep extra good.
That sounds heavenly!
It is also day 66 of President Trump version 47. Happy birthday.
Totally cool and thank you!
Happy double 66 my friend. I entered 60 club on the 8th. I feel no different .
Thank you, Suz. My mind still feels like I'm in my 20's, unfortunately, my body disagrees. It wants me to feel 166! 😄
P.S. Happy belated birthday to you, too!
I know what you mean. Sometimes I have to remind myself I’m not a kid anymore. In my mind that is. 🥴
I hear you. I do have to occasionally rein myself in, old bones are getting brittle, already have broken both wrists. Luckily not at the same time!
Oh my gosh that’s horrible. I have doubled up on my D3 thanks to Dr Eric Berg.
Got plates in both, and scars up my wrists that probably make other people who see them think I'm suicidal! 😄 They look similar to this:

SpouseAnon is on D3, think I'm going to start taking it, too. Have to get some K2 to go with it, they work together to increase bone density.
Happy Birthday!
Thank you, Dagny! Our son has been babysitting SpouseAnon for the afternoon, so I could have a peaceful, relaxing day. Only dozed on and off, but it was still very restful.
How kind! Hope SpouseAnon gets into a better sleep cycle. I find magnesium threonate helps me both fall and stay asleep.
Son is the best, couldn't have made it this far without him! Kind of worried now because he's starting to show symptoms from the stress of caregiving. He's no spring chicken, either, pushing 40, (wow! Where did the time go.....).
I'm already giving 10mg melatonin, but I'll look into the magnesium. I already have 500mg caplets of magnesium oxide, but that doesn't look like the same thing.
Along with the demetia, I also have to consider the dialysis due to kidney failure and liver problems, which is why I was afraid to administer Ivermectin.
Thank you again, for all! :)
C. H. Spurgeon's Evening Reading (March 26th)
"When He cometh in the glory of His Father with the holy angels." — Mark 8:38
If we have been partakers with Jesus in His shame, we shall be sharers with Him in the lustre which shall surround Him when He appears again in glory. Art thou, beloved one, with Christ Jesus? Does a vital union knit thee to Him? Then thou art to-day with Him in His shame; thou hast taken up His cross, and gone with Him without the camp bearing His reproach; thou shalt doubtless be with Him when the cross is exchanged for the crown. But judge thyself this evening; for if thou art not with Him in the regeneration, neither shalt thou be with Him when He shall come in His glory. If thou start back from the black side of communion, thou shalt not understand its bright, its happy period, when the King shall come, and all His holy angels with Him. What! are angels with Him? And yet He took not up angels-He took up the seed of Abraham. Are the holy angels with Him? Come, my soul, if thou art indeed His own beloved, thou canst not be far from Him. If His friends and His neighbours are called together to see His glory, what thinkest thou if thou art married to Him? Shalt thou be distant? Though it be a day of judgment, yet thou canst not be far from that heart which, having admitted angels into intimacy, has admitted thee into union. Has He not said to thee, O my soul, "I will betroth thee unto Me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness"? Have not His own lips said it, "I am married unto thee, and My delight is in thee"? If the angels, who are but friends and neighbours, shall be with Him, it is abundantly certain that His own beloved Hephzibah, in whom is all His delight, shall be near to Him, and sit at His right hand. Here is a morning star of hope for thee, of such exceeding brilliance, that it may well light up the darkest and most desolate experience.
When I get home from work, I enjoy watchcing videos from Hustl, Liberal Hivemind and Black Conservative Perspective on YT to see stuff going on in America. Then around 11pm or so there'll be a new Mark Dice video. On Rumble I'll check out Jimmy Dore videos. I guess you'd have to be a paid member to get to watch Dore's full shows?
My wife and I listen to liberal hivemind while grinding jrpgs and doing art..it is hilarious that while we are catching up on videos he puts up one or two more. That man does not sleep!
Lucky. My wife hates video games.
Here is something that will put a smile on your face and gift you some revengeful pleasure. https://x.com/nancytsidley/status/1901402830474506382
"If I was watching Snow White on a plane. I'd still walk out".
OMG, that was beyond hilarious, too many great lines to pick for quoting, I'd have to transcribe the whole thing!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I'm so happy someone else on here watched it and enjoyed it like I have. I've been having the best morning watching it over and over. It's Comedy Gold mining like never before in Mankind.
I agree and plan on doing the same thing. Also going to bookmark it for future laughter use, right next to the talking dog that didn't get the 'maple kind' of bacon. Thanks ever so much for posting this!
You are very welcome. Th gift that keeps on giving.

Anyone check out what's going on with GME right now? They're partnering up with the Saudi's apparently, its all over Superstonk on reddit. Not sure what it means though
Hey GAW family, I just want to say Thanks for being here! Love y'all!
Love you back ❤️
Hey fren 🤗
Spot price of silver is 34.55,a new 5 year high.
35.20 on the futures price.
Posted for my frens who don't check the price.
Has anyone noticed that sometimes when you post a Q drop (u/# q) it doesn't show up? Sometimes it does and sometimes it does not. I'm glad I always post the link to each drop also, so at least everyone can still click the ling to see the q drop.
tried it yesterday and the method did not work for me, others get the Q posts to show up in comments, not sure the reason
What you've typed looks like you have a space in there. There can't be a space.
yes, because that's how they show it on the gifs & qdrop page on how to do it, only when you actually do this, you don't leave a space. If I put the exact method, you won't see it. I just tried posting a q drop under one of my posts and it's still not showing the drop image. Don't know what's going on with that.
I tried doing it the way I've always done it, and nothing happens now. You can't see the code, but it's there if you highlight this comment. Maybe one day they will magically show up again.

Hey with this audit thing coming up, could someone with a Twitter account go post a question to Elon Musk asking him if he could have the IRS point to the specific law that requires Americans to pay an income tax, and what the definition of “Income” is?
