Last week a salesman came into my office to make a delivery, and this is how our conversation went:

Me: How are you doing?
Him: I'm okay but my wife is a little under the weather.
Me: Sorry to hear that. Did you guys get a flu shot?
Him: Yeah, we do every year
Me: Did you get the covid vaccines?
Him: No, they're putting stuff in those.
Me: What do you mean?
Him: The elites are putting stuff in the shots
Me: Why would they do that?
Him: Elites like Bill Gates want to control people.
Me: :shock:

But on the bright side, whenever I feel like I might be going off my rocker, I can always count on this thread to make me feel normal.

Touch grass, y'all.
Don't forget that flu and Covid are the same thing, probably a bacteria, and I suspect RSV will be added too in the near future.

All of the links shared by that Poster are from far right-wing conspiracy sites. No respectable news venue will have them because they lie with such audacity. I have been banned from forums 1)for asking a Poster to stop harassing me and 2) asking a Poster to consider if he is being biased. That was it; no argument. They were both a couple of big guys too; they simply would not tolerate a woman telling them something, and they both turned out to be enormous cry babies, who kicked and screamed at the Mods until they got their way.
And yet it's ok to spread dangerous lies here with impunity. Those who have been here a while know that there are some contrarians here who simply don't know what boundaries are, so we just ignore it. I'm concerned about visitors who stop by and see the disinformation. It's not the greatest look.
Happy Holidays, everyone.

The biggest question I have is what makes what you look at correct and say what someone else looks at wrong? Just curious. Because the conversation could go either way. Person A could say person B is spreading the wrong info and vice-versa. Who has actually seen the information they spread with their own eyes? We all live by what we experience. The biggest thing Ive seen lately is the ABC corps going back on what they said 2 years ago. That you cant argue with because its in print, there were statements made by their leaders and then they came out and either said the opposite or that their previous statements were incorrect. We have become a divided nation and thats the scariest part, divided nations fall and fall hard!!

I first hand experienced the sharp itch like needles, each time i hanged out with a near by vaccinated person. We no longer invited anyone who is vaccinated, has to be at least 6 months it seems where most of spreading stops.. Each time i did hot bath protocol and each time itch needle like feeling disappeared. I Doubt the white blood clots that grow in all the vaxxd people spreads, i feel like my blood and heart 100% perfect, i can run a marathon. Each time i hear people complain around me then i find out they had the ouchie, i smile, wish them good luck and walk away, they are as is already stressed, i dont believe they need to be more stressed, my only hope they finish living this life a happy one, no matter how many years they got left after the ouchie. Its not a put down, those who took it, you had big ballz to not read 9 pages of side effects, and most of those demon casters, they read scripts word for word and most you wont ever find out their living or if its real or CGI persona. It was your choice to enjoy the blue pill to feel comfortable and safe? it comes with a price..

I'm really itchy lately too but I think it's the cold, dry winter air and me not moisturizing.

Hope this post finds you all healthy and well.

Where I live, there is a surge of covid going around and it has been hitting vaxxed and unvaxxed. There are varying symptoms no matter how you got it. For one example, my mom ate out at a restaurant with a friend. Friend had positive covid test by the next day. My mom figured she dodged it. But she was sick”with a cold” within 2 days. She tested negative for 4 days before she tested positive. I missed out because as soon as she was “exposed”, I avoided the area. Been staying with friends who are not ill along with some pets I petsit. No covid for me!🙏🙏🙏 But poor mom is not doing well with being ALONE. All I do is drop off supplies. Fortunately I got her using an iPad and she uses Facebook! I’m not a proponent of Facebook, but it’s helpful for the socializing aspect.

That’s just one example. One’s enough for me since it lasts lasts and lasts tho the symptoms evolve each day. I’m grateful it’s not necessarily a death sentence for patients or health care workers. Regardless of opinions on vaccines.

Wishing everyone in this thread and your families and friends a wonderful, healthy holiday.

I stopped fast foods, after going to Italian pizza place,i saw him using bare hands mixing dow, but i ignored it. i hoped he was not vaxxed, but later found out he was, all those spikes running off his hands into dow??? I eat the pizza, felt tired went to sleep, next thing i know i woke up sick and with like 5 bumps all over my face, never had that.... i believe if you scroll up i posted about this while back,, guys be careful eating out. we all know food these day is not best shape so eat less and more picky if can... Problem is, if you follow alternative, alot of food in mass being poisoned , so if the restaurant buys bulk and something changed, you will get sick... stop living in a fantasy land and realize there is a war out there.... Lets pray and Hope all ass holes who there to harm innocent people will disappear off this planet, i will have zero regrets... I ll just give one example, we all heard baby formulas are disappearing, i heard white hats removed most batches that will kill the babys.. white hats cant keep an eye on every single thing, so your in a wonder land risking each time you go out and eat. Its about timem every single person starts to think to have their own small green house..

I mean i still risk if iam on the road and hungry but thats the risk we are all taking. Or always have dr zelenko pills by your side , in your purse or car. It helps remove most side effects from foods. or just any flu,,,

One thing i will never allow is anyone stab or poke my nose, we all seen PCR goes to Chinese DNA big data base.. Positive or Negetive is fake... go to different locations same day and it will be 50% 50%.. many already done it... STOP giving your DNA donations... plus some of them are toxic and the ends glow, something i would definilty not risk poking my nose. We all seen videos or all fruits and all soft drinks test positive for covid, there is something terribly wrong with PCR test. ..STOP all needles as well, its not called Anti-flu, its called Flu shots, why would you want a Flu??? do people not pay attention?? In mass people halting their next dose of booster or even second shot. once a person dives into the rabbit hole, there is no way they will get tricked again.. its never late to stop harming even if your 3 boosters in.. most people here are very smart, you might be harming with knowing but at the same time there is action you can take to restore your body, there is plenty of good info on this forum. Especially the rootbrand that was posted, you dont want to die from those white clots tht all vaxed people have growing in their body. No expect mass trolls media to tell you the truth, they dont even know what they are doing, just working for their checks. well some do.. have your own head.

There is always a solution, main thing is not to be tricked again. Learn how fear works and how it can over come any common sense, or if your weak, never watch main stream. There time is comming to an end, they all know it, the bad guys, black hats... just dont fall for their tricks.

you guys think its jokes and fun? ok ok, soon you will learn the hard ways... actually it will be in the open on main stream media.. i dont have to be some genius to see that, a lot already leaking out on main stream.. problem is you guys collecting cookie crumbs late to data.. while harm is already done and new more harmful covid alike is introduced. i can already see how some of you cant wait to stand in line. at this point, i i realized some people will never change. do whats good for ya'll. there is only 4 of you here that i am trying to get the message across and actually spend my time, i think iam done here. Solutions you can find here here in this thread.

Hippie, Mike, Metal, Grey, wish you very best up coming Christmas and a Happy new years..

Just know , full truth how bad the shots are disclosure coming next year. I mean the details of it. I just dont want to put more stress on you guys since i know what happens to the brain. Out side many look normal but inside many are crying.. It 100% messes with critical thinking. when tables switch, main stream news will be looked at as conspiracy and alternative news as facts you will know.. its coming. already many have awakened and stopped watching conspiracy main stream. some just late to the game... Next year is the year. Problem is, awakened know its not only about ouchie, for many years they understand how chemtrails, foods, water, hospitals and so much more, do you for a second thing someone cared for you??? in these ass holes eyes your just a bag of walking meat standing in the way, the faster you leave this plane the better.... if you only knew, ouchie would not be on your mind, many other factors would be.

This is a silent WAR. while people disappear and covid is blamed. there actually people who are hired to kill. Yes 500 mill people is their goal. They have over stepped the RED line that should never been over stepped. And many people are awakening to learn who these ass holes are, just your in your room with a screen in front of you, dont for a second think your safe, these ass holes are planing power outage. And Nuclear war, which high chance they might succeed... Heal up from the shot, and join team humanity. If you dont care about your selfs at least care for the future of our children. please no more victim games.

Its already been announced on multiple main streams, ouchies have 0 effectiveness from protecting you. How much hypnotized people have to be to can't wait for the boosters? when there is way more data boosters more then 9 pages of side effects. i understand the first and second shot had 9 pages but if boosters have 50 pages of side effects, why in the world would you go for that???

Do you have no common sense, real medicine has zero side effects??? even one page of side effects should ring all the alarms in your ears.... i understand why many patriots gave up on the ignorant once and clap their hands when they see many bite the dust. But this is not the time to feel happy for those who were not awakened yet , to this silent WAR..

Thank you Metal! I will.. just relaxing, got some hot coffee with some power house kratom, feeling great. Looking at decorated Christmas tree.

I am sure many wont have same experience we are able to experience and enjoy. who knows what next year holds for all of us.

The only way we can get trough this is if we all band against this insanity. While people awaken 17 the dark will have no where to hide.

MetalMamaRocks (my hero)! 🤗

Boy times are getting tougher here each day. Now we have the local (chain) grocery store SHUTTING DOWN along with our pharmacy/store.

Mom got covid so I haven’t been home since I left to sit with some cats over Thanksgiving. She is better now but it was unexpected and I felt bad for not coming home as soon as she told me she may have been exposed. Took 4 days before she was sick (and tested positive). Looking forward to a reunion with mom tomorrow (I am finishing up another pet sitting gig and moving back home). Not sure why I’m so panicked about getting it since it’s not necessarily FATAL except I do have some autoimmune issues…

Trash day followed Christmas. No sign of overflowing cans full of wrappers or bows, only random masks 😷 getting caught up in the wind following the holiday.

Hope everyone had a nice holiday with loved ones and only a few lost helicopter 🚁 drones…

Hello DoubleM Family,

Wow, we got through the pandemic without a sniffle and now I've been sick with COVID for nearly 17 days.

Although I had been boosted, I also have an auto-immune disease so there's that. Also I haven't slept more than 4 hours in months and - not - kidding about 6 hours in the past 15 days. That 11 hour world record? Hahahahahahaaaaaa! I've beaten that so many times. You have too, I know. I had the typical symptoms but ignored them so it was too late to get the Paxlovid. If you get symptoms, get that stuff quick. I'm hearing that there's a surge and also there are about 2 or 3 other things going around.

Also my mom died 14 days ago. That's all I'll say about that.

Where I live the weather went from below zero to about 51 degree in a few days so I think that our local groundhog came out of his hole ass-first and no one wanted to admit it. It's raining now. One of my neighbors put a post on facebook yesterday that she was on her porch enjoying the 70 degree weather. Girl, it was 45 degrees. We thought maybe we should go over and check her vitals. But, hey, if she thought it was 70 and was having a great time, who were we to spoil her day?

So, this post is really for you, Herbal Hippie, because when you got sick twice (?) I felt so bad. I hope you and your son are staying well and thriving. I know you often long to be in a different part of your state. I'd give a lot to be anywhere in your state, I dislike mine so much.

Different topic: I've been using cannabis gummies for two years now and found myself gobbling them up. My tolerance went way up too. But I don't really like the high. I love the pain relief. My dr. retired so I had to get a new one. She made me take a urine test to keep getting my lorazepam. I confess, I used a really good synthetic urine but since she didn't see any lorazepam in it she's seriously suspicious, so I haven't had any weed for 11 days and plan to avoid it in case I get another call. I had actually stopped using kratom for a month. My pain is back, but the rain aggravates it a lot. So I had some kratom an hour ago and I'm feeling quite warm:). Recently I saw a viddy about Prickly Lettuce. I'm certain I used to see it out in the country. It's supposed to be good for pain relief. Anyway, I read a lot about how long it takes to get clean from THC. I've gone from 95 lb. to probably under 90 lb. (the COVID). Not good, I know. But I wonder how long it will take to get the stuff out of me since my body fat % is already so low. WHERE DOES ALL OF THAT THC GO WHEN YOU HARDLY HAVE ANY FAT????? Anyone have any idea how long it will take me to get clean? If I can get approved and keep getting my meds I'd like to make some cannabutter and try to combine it with CBD so I don't have to get high anymore. I'd love some expert advice as to how that's done. Is there CBD bud? Or should I just eat some CBD gummies at the same time? It's all too expensive right now anyway.....

On that note I'll close. Sorry if this sounds like a pity party. I'm not as gloomy as I seem. If the house weren't full of cute germs I'd invite you all over.

Everyone stay warm. Keep your loved ones close. I only have one in the world, but he's my Precious, and I'm testing him every day.
I've missed you.

Greyfeather, I have missed you too and I am so sorry.

I only had Covid the one time and am still taking full precautions to not get it a second time. I hope you aren't having too hard of a time
with it and that you make a full recovery asap.

Yeah, I am very grateful to be where I am, wrong part of it or not, at least I'm in it somewhere. It could be a lot worse.

I hope things start looking up for you. <3

Greyfeather, I'm so sorry about everything you're going through. I also can't imagine having insomnia while being sick with covid. I slept for days at a time when I had it, I was so fatigued.

Hope you feel better soon! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you so much, Dear Friends.

I'm back to using kratom again with so-so results. Joint pain gets bad when the temperature goes up and down (or when it rains or snows) and it's been doing that like crazy here. We might possibly get through a Midwestern winter with one light snow cover.

I still feel like I'm moving slowly, maybe from the COVID. I wrote that I'd only slept a little in a long while. It's been officially 4 nights of sleep in the past 30-something days. I don't know how i'm still sitting here. I have a problem. I've tried different meds - Ambien, Trazadone, even Benedryl and melatonin, all with little effects.

Anyone have any good sleep remedies? Because of my crappy insurance it's hard to find a dr. who'll even give me Ambien. They just assume we're all drug users or dealers.
WE NEED SINGLE PAYER HEALTHCAE NOW! It would solve so many of our problems in the US.

Everyone stay well and find some joy in this hard old world :D

Damn, I am so sorry to hear you're experiencing this. :(

My very BEST sleep aid is half of a 10mg Flexeril/cyclobenzeprine. It's a muscle relaxer and not habit forming. My doctors have had no issue prescribing it to me.

I hope you find some relief soon <3

When I see my new doc, I'll ask her about that.

I think there's still cases here and there.

I still wear a mask out in public and probably will for the rest of my life.

Were you supporting vaccines or against them?

I am all about the vaccines, no matter what kind. I'm full up on the Covid vaccines, get a flu
vaccine every year, got my shingles and pneumonia vaccines.

hep B? that virus is baaaaad. Make sure your tattoo artist autoclaves their tattoo gun, hep B will live on stuff, even the chair you sit in, for several days.

I'm four months out from my COVID diagnosis and I've been told that it went on to become Long COVID. I still have the hoarseness, the sinus problems and the damn fatigue. Oh yes, and the Brain Fog. I've heard a lof about that. It's real. I was told that our town actually has a Long Covid clinic but that it takes a long time to get in (ironic or just stupid?) and the intake process takes all day. It occured to me that they might do that just to see if you really have it. :?
Anyway, I meant to respond to your post, HH. I still wear masks too, except to my UU Congregation. We're a pretty tight-knit, caring bunch.
I'll get whatever vaccine I can as soon as I can get it. I still hear about plenty of cases around here.
Stay safe everyone!

Yes it is still out there, half of my oldest daughter's close in-laws are quarantined with it now.

I'm sorry you got the long Covid, I hope it eventually clears up for you. Soon.

Maybe a liiiiiiiitle bit personal?

(what I wrote, that is.)

It's an issue that divides people and I want no part of that.

I also feel like some people would take that personally, and I have no interest in that either.

I firmly believe that people should do whatever they want to do in every situation. I would never try to tell you what's best for you, I was just sharing my experience because it's a piece of the puzzle that, for most, is missing.

It's just not what I want to do. That's all.

It's a topic that should be discussed but it's been made taboo to do so.

That's dangerous.

Thank you, J. Hope you guys are a-ok.

I'm teaching my kitty Mishie the ins and outs of being a leash cat, and the funny part is that she's taking to it! Haha!

That sweet little fur-ball! Neither of ours like leashes much, God knows we tried. 🤣
