May explain the motive for the Sherman murders?
Wow! Very interesting. Yes, he has been saying “scourge” a lot. I wonder if he keeps mispronouncing it on purpose.
Once we OPEN UP OUR GREAT COUNTRY, and it will be sooner rather than later, the horror of the Invisible Enemy, except for those that sadly lost a family member or friend, must be quickly forgotten. Our Economy will BOOM, perhaps like never before!!!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 8, 2020
Prayers up for that family. Very sad story, and so many tragedies. Do you know why they wouldn’t just try the hydrochloroquine mix that has been working miracles for so many? Just curious.
Well said.
Seems like a lot of people on FR are revealing their inner tyrant/derphood/Trump hater statuses.
I think that is one of the biggest “Q” proofs. I used to just not care for Alex Jones, now that we know his game, I truly despise him. So right after the reminder about fake comms from “Q” they file the charge and then unseal + drop it on the day AJ was to “expose” the “Q” op.
ohhh, that’s good!

I have been praying for him.
So Bite’em is the last “man” “standing”. Whoo-de-freaking-hoo.
I cannot imagine the mentality of Demsheviks right now. How on earth can anyone except a legitimately tested moron have even one microgram of enthusiasm about Bite’em?
[And I am genetically programmed to make up and use nicknames. I cannot help myself.]
Well of course I am not surprised.
Looking for multiple meaning in the World of Q there is this
Scourge - “to bind”, “fetter” related “shackle fixed on the foot of a horse or other beast”
Q tells us repeatedly “they” refer to us as “Sheep.”
__________________________________________________________
scourge (n.)
c. 1200, “a whip, lash,” from Anglo-French escorge, back-formation from Old French escorgier “to whip,” from Vulgar Latin *excorrigiare, from Latin ex- “out, off” (see ex-) + corrigia “thong, shoelace,” in this case “whip,” probably from a Gaulish word related to Old Irish cuimrech “fetter,” from PIE root *reig- “to bind” (see rig (v.)). Figurative use from late 14c. Scourge of God, title given by later generations to Attila the Hun (406-453 C.E.), is attested from late 14c., from Latin flagellum Dei.
scourge (v.)
c. 1300, “to whip,” from Old French escorgier and from scourge (n.). Figurative meaning “to afflict” (often for the sake of punishment or purification) is from late 14c. Related: Scourged; scourging.
__________________________________________________________
fetter (n.)
Old English fetor “chain or shackle by which a person or animal is bound by the feet,” figuratively “check, restraint,” from Proto-Germanic *fetero (source also of Old Saxon feteros (plural), Middle Dutch veter “fetter,” in modern Dutch “lace, string,” Old High German fezzera, Old Norse fiöturr, Swedish fjätter “fetter”), from PIE root *ped- “foot.” The generalized sense of “anything that shackles” had evolved in Old English. Related Fetters.
___________________________________________________________
pastern (n.)
late 13c., pastron, “shackle fixed on the foot of a horse or other beast,” from Old French pasturon (Modern French paturon), diminutive of pasture “shackle for a horse in pasture,” from Vulgar Latin *pastoria, noun use of fem. of Latin pastorius “of herdsmen,” from pastor “shepherd” (see pastor). Metathesis of -r- and the following vowel occurred 1500s. The original sense is obsolete; the meaning was extended by 1520s to the part of the horse’s leg between the fetlock and the hoof, to which the tether was attached.
__________________________________________________________
impede (v.)
c. 1600, back-formation from impediment, or else from Latin impedire “impede, be in the way, hinder, detain,” literally “to shackle the feet,” from assimilated form of in- “into, in” (from PIE root *en “in”) + pes (genitive pedis) “foot,” from PIE root *ped- “foot.” Related: Impeded; impedes; impeding; impedient.

All this takes me back to all the elites “dog tweets” that lead me to the “dog throw” in ancient dice throwing where they used sheep knuckle bones for throwing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake_eyes
In gambling in general and the game of craps in particular, snake eyes is the outcome of rolling the dice in a game and getting only one pip on each die. The pair of pips resembles a pair of eyes, which is appended to the word snake. The dictionary of etymology traces use of the term as far back as 1919.[1] Ancient Roman dice games used the term dogs to describe a throw of double ones, referring to this as “the dog throw”.
Because this is the lowest possible roll, and will often be a loser in many dice games, such as craps, the term has been employed in a more general usage as a reference to bad luck. In some board games, such as Monopoly, house rules may decide that this roll earns the player a bonus (for example, a free turn when rolling a “double”) due to it being rare and otherwise disadvantageous.[2]
The odds of rolling snake eyes on two six-sided dice are 1-in-36 (1/6 x 1/6).

I hope his treatment including the meds!
Tea Tree Oil painted on husband’s nails took about three months total. We had to kill it everyday as the nail grows out. A little bottle with a nail polish type brush is what we used, poured the tea tree in, paint the nails once a day. Pretty nails at the end of about three months.
I warned him of the antifungal toxicity.
Of course he loved being pampered, like having a mani-pedi everyday. He is a total brat. I’m an idiot, I even rubbed lotion on his feet before we put his socks on.
The things you do when you are in love.
Thanks for your etymology expertise! I always thought “scourge” meant whipping or beating. Now I know!
