After today's thread, Bagster's icon(w/link) will be placed in the thread roll at the start of every thread (H/T Melian), where he will stand guard - this time over the memories of FReeQs linked in a memorial table. The table will house names (with links to memorial posts) of those who precede us (e.g., Green Eyes, WaltStuart etc.). Please email FReeQ names and any memorial links for them.

Have you seen President Trump's powerful 4 minute video message? Don't miss it!
Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation.
Q describes this awakening as follows:
"The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding 'mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’), but, more importantly, aid in the construction of a vehicle (a ‘ship’) that provides the scattered (‘free thinkers’) with a ‘starter’ new social-networking platform which allows for freedom of thought, expression, and patriotism or national pride (the feeling of love, devotion and sense of attachment to a homeland and alliance with other citizens who share the same sentiment).When ‘non-dogmatic’ information becomes FREE & TRANSPARENT it becomes a threat to those who attempt to control the narrative and/or the stable.
When you are awake, you stand on the outside of the stable (‘group-think’ collective), and have ‘free thought’.
"Free thought" is a philosophical viewpoint which holds that positions regarding truth should be formed on the basis of logic, reason, and empiricism, rather than authority, tradition, revelation, or dogma.
When you are awake, you are able to clearly see.
The choice is yours, and yours alone.
Trust and put faith in yourself.
You are not alone and you are not in the minority.
Difficult truths will soon see the light of day.
WWG1WGA!!!" ~ Q (#3038)
Q has reminded us repeatedly that together, we are strong. As the false "narrative" is destroyed and the divisive machinery put in place by the Deep State fails, the fact that patriotism has no skin color or political party is exposed for all to see.
In the battle between those who strip us our constitutional rights, we can't afford to let false divisions separate us any longer. We, and our country, will be forever made stronger by diligently seeking the truth, independence and freedom of thought.
Where We Go 1, We Go All
A bit off-topic compared to today’s developments, but this appears to be quite important.
This has been confirmed. You can also confirm by performing a search for the name Kim Komando and TEMU. You will find multiple authentic posts. Copied from elsewhere ...
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT regarding the shopping app TEMU ...
Radio talk show hostess, Kim Komando, did some digging about TEMU and this is what she found!
Seemingly overnight, everyone’s talking about Temu (pronounced “tee-moo”), an online shopping app that boasts deals that seem too good to be true, like $17 wireless earbuds, $1 “gold” necklaces and $23 wedding dresses.
Over 50 million Americans have downloaded Temu since it launched state-side in September 2022, after it gained traction with expensive Super Bowl ads promising to let you “shop like a billionaire.”
Today, Temu is the most popular shopping app in the U.S. behind Amazon. But most of us don’t know much about the app’s true origins. Reader Daniel Mayer asked an important question, “Is [Temu] something we should be concerned about?”
So, I did some digging. And as it turns out, yes, you absolutely should be. Here’s what I found:
Where did Temu come from?
This isn’t some fly-by-night operation. Temu is based in Boston, Massachusetts, by PDD Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: PDD). PDD is headquartered in Shanghai, China.
PDD also owns the e-commerce platform Pinduoduo headquartered in — you guessed it — China. So, Temu is a Communist China-based app and site.
What you need to know before using Temu
First, you’re buying goods directly from manufacturers in China and other parts of the world. That’s why shipping times are often 12 days or longer. The prices are low because the goods are cheap. The pictures of what you see advertised may not be what you actually get.
Temu’s BBB rating is 2.21/5. Reviews at TrustPilot are interesting, with 38% 5-star reviews and 41% 1-star reviews.
But that’s not the worst of it.
Temu is downright dangerous.
The app is a clever, pervasive digital stalker. As you shop, Temu monitors your activity on other apps, tracks your notifications and location and changes settings.
?? It gets worse. Temu gains full access to all your contacts, calendars and photo albums, plus all your social media accounts, chats and texts. In other words, literally everything on your phone.
No shopping app needs this much control, especially one tied to Communist China. If you’re using Temu, delete the app from your phone ASAP.
On iPhone, Long-press an app, then tap Remove App > Delete App. Tap Delete to confirm.
On Android, touch and hold an app, then tap Remove App > Delete App > Delete.
Pro tip: If you downloaded Temu, to be safe from Chinese spies, you really need to do a full factory reset.
But wait, there’s more! Temu’s sister app was removed from Google Play because of malware.
Do not buy from this company, or use their app!

Yes, the storm has arrived.

I figured that out just by looking at the ads on YouTube.
Thanks for the new thread!
Big storm on the horizon
Gnight!
Know your Nautical Terminology
Locker
The place where something is kept. There are many lockers on a ship, the paint locker, the small arms locker, the rain locker (shower), and the goat locker (Chief's quarters). But the one everone tries to stay out of is the hurt locker.
Davy Jones' Locker
An idiom for the bottom of the sea.
The 1898 Dictionary of Phrase and Fable connects Davy to the West-Indian duppy (duffy) and Jones to biblical Jonah:
He’s gone to Jones' locker, i.e. he is dead. Jones is a corruption of Jonah, the prophet, who was thrown into the sea. Locker, in seaman’s phrase, means any receptacle for private stores; and duffy is a ghost or spirit among the West Indian negroes. So the whole phrase is, "He is gone to the place of safe keeping, where duffy Jonah was sent to."

thankQ MqD for the new thread!
The Highlander reporting in!
Well, I’m losing my mind apparently lol. I thought for sure I posted a hello and a thank you, RN post!
So, thank you for the new thread. I know I had it written.. I said something about Trump’s speech. Did it post? I said he looked po’d but was optimistic.
Aw that’s sooo cute. I love Goldens.
Good find, foldspace!
I went there to see what the fuss was but did NOT download any app. But, ooh since then, I’ve gotten notifications from McAfee? that a couple of apps ? are trying to go to bad places?
Did that make sense? Should I renew McAfee?? I have a new computer. McAfee just expired a couple of days ago.
Anyway, two things I noticed, Temu is going to very addicting to those shoppers. The other thing is, cheap garbage carp that looks cute. Like I saw some adorable, embroidered, turquoise cowboy boots, but they are not made of leather.
Greedy greedy. Also, clothing that is made in China is usually farmed out to factories where people live and die in, in North Korea. Not good places at all!! If you are born there, you work there, you die there.
Thanks for the public service announcement. I was disheartened when I saw that my dil had joined the Tik Tok craze.
You’re welcome and thanks for your comments!
Used to be a time when in legal terms, “Intent” or “commander’s intent” or the “intent of the law” was everything and there was no way getting around intent. Today, America is ruled by people intent on keeping power forever and the hell with the intent of laws such as ones stating it is illegal to fund certain research, or to obtain certain information on citizens - the intent of the laws to keep the government from engaging or hiring companies or paying for that research in another nation..., or buying protected personal data from private companies or just plain getting it from companies by hook or crook.
Many of the abuses of power by today’s ruling click will be overturned. Once that happens, those who engaged in unlawful intent will be criminals, not simply innocent wards of the government protecting itself. Americans are governed by consent... we are not ruled. When American’s leadership became rulers (read Biden, Romney, McCain, Obama, Clintons, etc.,) they no longer govern by constitutional intent, nor by our laws - they have become dictators.
