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

Back to Greenland for similar reason? Iceworm In the 1960s, the U.S. Army embarked on a secret mission to build a series of mobile nuclear missile launch sites under the Greenland ice sheet. The objective was to house medium-range missiles close enough to strike targets within the Soviet Union.
The program was codenamed Project Iceworm, but to test its feasibility, the Army launched a cover research project called "Camp Century" in 1960. Under this guise, engineers built a network of underground buildings and tunnels, including living quarters, a kitchen, a recreation hall, infirmary, laboratories, supply rooms, a communications center and a nuclear power plant.
The base, which was kept secret from the Danish government, operated for seven years. The program was canceled in 1966 after shifting ice created unstable conditions. Today, the crushed remains of Project Iceworm are buried beneath Arctic snow.
Chevron says Israel tells it to shut down Leviathan gasfield Chevron says it has been instructed by Israel’s Energy Ministry to temporarily shut down production at the Leviathan gasfield, where it is in the process of expanding capacity to about 21 billion cubic metres (742 trillion cubic feet) a year as part of a $35bn export deal to Egypt, according to Reuters.
A spokesperson for Chevron, which also operates the Tamar gasfield, which is also located in the Mediterranean Sea off Israel, said its facilities were safe, the news agency reported.
This kind of Epstein research/sharing is popping up in Democratic Underground.
Absolutely awesome.

I can't believe Trump can keep pulling this "please don't throw me in the briar patch" game with voting adults but here we are...
Congratulations on updating the site’s footer tab copyright year from 2024 to 2026!
Does that actually even matter with a forum like this?
A comment taken from 4chan:
Ivermectin question....
Can a person on a boatload of prescriptions with a recent history of heart issues and strokes take ivermectin safe and effectively?
What u/DagnyDocket said, look for “ivermectin contraindications”.
Offhand, and be sure to double check this, but if you’re taking anything that’s hard on the liver, you may want to avoid.
Thanks
You need to run the Rx for interactions. Try drugs.com or webmd.
Thanks. I remember once I found a great site that allowed you to search prescription interactions. I’ve been looking for it when I’ve had the chance today.
Happy "1:07 [Marker]"
Today March 2 is [07] on the Q clock.
And Q1464 is itself [07] on the Q clock.
"Boom" #4 (last Epstein files batch) was just dropped yesterday March 1.
u/#q1464
For nearly a month now I've been saying The early February Epstein files drop was boom #3, and that we should be looking out for one more…
Well here we are.
I was beginning to have my doubts.
Incredible timing eh?
Due to its Israeli censor, the BBC is no longer allowed to do proper journalism.
I haven't been on interwebs or watched tv or listened to radio for 3 days. Apparently we went blew some shit up?
The original primary sources teach us that jews from around the world poured gigantic sums of money into:
-the ethnic cleansing of 50 million White Christians in Russia
-both sides of WWI to maximize White-on-White casualties
-decades of murderous uprisings all across Europe before WWII
Sources:
• State Department cables on jewish funding of 1905 Russian Revolution and WWI profiteering (e.g., Warburg brothers financing both sides), cited in Henry Ford’s Dearborn Independent Articles (1920–1922).
• French police files on jewish networks funding Comintern uprisings, Léon de Poncins, “The Secret Powers Behind Revolution” (1929): Béla Kun, jewish leader, 1919 Red Terror: 5,000 executed
I can't stand people who refuse to see the bigger picture.
People on a certain other board (not PDW) calling Trump a traitor because in the Iran operation, one of our men died.
One.
"I don't care that you got checkmate. YOU LOST A PAWN."
Q: What's the difference between a locked door and a closed mind?
A: You can force open a locked door.
Also the door doesn’t sneeze if you jam a key up it’s nose.
I never considered that.
<reprograms mental idiomatic algorithm>
That's great. I've got to remember that one.
Spot silver 94.11

This is better than a movie.
I don't know about you, but a lot of normies are watching the intermission of this Movie called "Is that really Jim Carey?" and finally after all these years of watching Biden with his mask literally slipping off, are starting to say "They cloned Jim Carey" lol
Heh.
Anyone know anything about the shingles vax?
https://www.managedhealthcareexecutive.com/view/a-jump-in-shingles-after-first-shingrix-dose-but-the-risk-is-transient-study-finds
Shingles search has many results on this site, too.
Thanks,it's not for mel
Hope your mother refuses. Happy to help, Fren.
She took the previous vax,for shingles years ago. She wanted me to take it.
imo, at this point, i wouldn't trust ANY vacc, no matter what they call it...
Agree.
I know that they started pushing heavily after the folks who took the covid vaxx started getting all kinds of issues including shingles. I wouldn't touch it with a 6 foot pole.
I'm not inclined to get it. My mother is visiting,and she's had several friends that got shingles.
You. mean, she's had several friends that got vaccines
Applying the Cramer rule to big pharma should hit with pretty high accuracy.
Preterism a Christian eschatological view
Preterism is a Christian eschatological view that interprets biblical prophecies—particularly those in the Book of Revelation, the Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24), and other New Testament passages—as events that were fulfilled in the past, primarily by AD 70 with the destruction of Jerusalem and the Second Temple by Roman forces.
Core Beliefs of Preterism Fulfilled Prophecy: Preterists believe that most, if not all, end-times prophecies were fulfilled in the first century AD. This includes the Second Coming of Christ, the resurrection of the dead, the Great Tribulation, the Antichrist, the final judgment, and the "new heavens and new earth." Timing: Central to preterism is the interpretation of Jesus’ statement in Matthew 24:34—"Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened"—which preterists take to mean that the events described were completed within one generation of Jesus’ ministry. Symbolic Interpretation: The Book of Revelation is seen as a symbolic account of the conflict between the early Christian church and the Roman Empire, especially under emperors like Nero and Domitian. The "Beast" is often identified with Nero or the Roman imperial system, and the "mark of the beast" may symbolize allegiance to the emperor (e.g., imperial coinage or forced worship). Two Main Branches Partial Preterism (also called classical or orthodox preterism): Holds that most eschatological events were fulfilled by AD 70, but still affirms a future physical resurrection, Second Coming, and final judgment. Many partial preterists accept the resurrection and judgment as still future or ongoing. Full Preterism (also called consistent or hyper-preterism): Claims that all end-times events—including the resurrection, final judgment, and Christ’s Second Coming—were fulfilled in AD 70. This view sees Jesus’ return as a spiritual or invisible event, not a physical, visible return. Full preterism is often considered heretical by mainstream Christianity due to its denial of a physical resurrection and future judgment. Key Interpretations The Millennium: Preterists typically reject a literal 1,000-year reign of Christ on Earth (millennialism). Instead, they view the "millennium" as a symbolic description of the current age of the Church, where Christ reigns spiritually through the spread of the Gospel. The Afterlife: Preterists affirm that believers already possess eternal life, immortality, and righteousness in Christ. The "afterlife" is not a future state but a present reality—believers are already in heaven in the sense of being united with God, righteous, and dwelling in His presence through the New Covenant. Replacement Theology: Some preterists hold that the Church has replaced Israel as God’s chosen people, based on the belief that God’s covenant with Israel was fulfilled and ended with the destruction of Jerusalem. Historical Context Preterism was first systematically developed by Luis de Alcasar, a Jesuit in the 16th century, during the Counter-Reformation, as a way to counter Protestant historicist views that identified the Catholic Church as the Antichrist. It was later adopted by figures like Hugo Grotius and Henry Hammond, though it remained controversial among Protestants. In modern times, preterism has gained traction among Christian Reconstructionists and postmillennialists, particularly through the works of Kenneth Gentry, R. C. Sproul, and N.T. Wright. Criticism Critics argue that full preterism undermines core Christian doctrines such as the physical resurrection, the bodily return of Christ, and the final judgment. It is also criticized for misinterpreting passages that speak of a future, visible, and bodily Second Coming (e.g., Acts 1:11, 1 Thessalonians 4:16). Some scholars point out that Jesus’ Olivet Discourse includes events that cannot be fully explained by the fall of Jerusalem alone, such as the "abomination of desolation" and the "sun being darkened" (Matthew 24:29), which many believe point to future cosmic signs. In summary, preterism is a view that sees the end times as already past, with the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70 marking the fulfillment of biblical prophecy. While it offers a coherent historical framework, it remains a minority view due to its radical departure from traditional Christian eschatology.

Random comment:
gotta say, its rather glorious how all the accounts with like, karma of a few hundred, who have contributed almost nothing here over the years, are coming out and dooming with
It's not America first! (waah waah)
It's not what I voted for (waaah waah)
Guess Trump's just owned by Israel (waah, waah)
One of the downsides of not contributing and not engaging on the board is that you never get your thinking challenged, you can end up believing your own thinking is THE comprehensive view, and you really never have to defend or defend your thinking.

Titus 2:11-14.
For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, 12 training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, 13 waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.
