Our mission, as God-fearing and God-loving patriots, is to defend this Constitutional Republic and to increase its greatness, in all good things and ways, by using our voices in free but courteous speech, by discussing the happenings of the world and coming to a profound understanding of those things, and by sharing and promulgating these Truths on both this platform and others.
This DePat Tuesday Open Thread honors the author of the original Tuesday open thread on this site, namely the late Susie Sampson, a.k.a. Deplorable Patriot, among her other handles, pen names, etc.
For more on the untimely passing of Dear DePat, please see these three posts.
At one time, DePat handled FOUR daily open threads here, in addition to taking care of her relatives, choir duties, and numerous other responsibilities. She was a powerhouse – a dynamo – a true force of nature.
DePat’s faith in Trump, Q, “The Plan”, the White Hats, and “the anons” in general, was legendary. Although I didn’t always agree with her quick acceptance of some sketchier evidence and fringier theories, I will gladly admit to “coming around” to numerous so-called “conspiracy theories” which she championed first. I was always careful to give her credit for being right, too, when I had been wrong.
It is impossible to overstate how much DePat did for not only this site, but for her country. I urge all to say a quick prayer of thanks, whenever you think of her, for the privilege of knowing, in life or after death, such an exemplary human being, and lover of God.
And thank you, Susie, for the firm foundation which you left us, when you were called to your true home!
Private Messaging – The Role of This Site in Keeping with the Gospel
I had a bit of a revelation today, as I read today’s verse.
“If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone.”
Matthew 18:15
I feel that this has several levels of impact on this site.
One of those levels is how we criticize people OUTSIDE this blog, in our analysis of the news. I think we are reasonably safe there, because we are generally not well known. If we bring attention to our discussion on X or Gab, that gets a bit trickier, because that is very public. And while it can be very difficult to DM famous people on X, it isn’t hard to drop them a kind word or a courteous critique in the depths of their timeline, knowing that hardly anybody is going to see it. Sadly, however, that “hardly anybody” typically does not include the intended recipient.
Other times, I believe that public critique of public figures is more than permissible – it’s our duty. But where do we draw lines around this? I think that’s a valid question.
I do believe that much of what we say here gets looked at by anonymous “white hats” – and that’s a good thing! So if you think somebody in the administration made an error, and needs counsel, your stated opinion here may actually find its way to them.
Here on the blog, between ourselves, it’s a bit tougher, because our interactions are DESIGNED to be public, and I encourage public communication as a way to keep things honest and “sunlight-disinfected”. Courteous speech allows quite a bit of conflict to be resolved publicly, in a surprisingly low-key way, thankfully.
People here do PM me sometimes using PMTW, but conflicts with other members are – between public crises – surprisingly few. People can always approach each other on Gab, X, or through me as well, although in keeping with the Gospel, it is perhaps better if one approaches another party directly. Sometimes people just sharing a frustration with me fits directly into what the Gospel advises (since I may be the one in need of counsel on doing my duty to resolve a conflict), or it can be a “private” way to get me to hint to another person that there is a problem. No matter what, I strive to do what God would want, as best as I can tell, at all times.
I would love to hear other people’s thoughts on this, ranging from personal experience to theology, and that is why I chose that for today’s topic. Please keep the message of Christ in mind – particularly Matthew 18:15 – as you do this. I am seeking not to drum up conflict, but rather the opposite.
I’m all ears! And thank you in advance!

(Oddly, in the past, I always read this as “CURIOUS” – and only today realized it says “GLORIOUS” – which makes far more sense! LOL! Now, I absolutely cannot see the word “curious”. I guess that is a minor proof of how it can be impossible to unsee truth.)

For lakes, the littoral zone is the nearshore habitat where photosynthetically active radiation penetrates to the lake bottom in sufficient quantities to support photosynthesis.
I had to start a fresh chat with Gabby to make any headway on trying to get a watercolor of the locally famous “Wheatie Warrior” picture, shown above.
Note the image name, upon which I believe Gabby relies heavily. I provided the file URL to Gabby, and I am positive that Gabby is reading the file and analyzing it.
It’s a great image – not as creepy as many prior Gabby images, and even less creepy in watercolor – but it lacks so many key aspects from the “Wheatie Warrior” image. OTOH, the original Wheatie Warrior image is rather far from reality. Does Gabby find the original “Final Fantasy” image creepy? Or at least “undesirable”? Is Gabby editing? Is Gabby changing the basic picture to “his/her/its” view of things? What are the biases of Gabby?
Gabby definitely biases to the center of the picture. Not much sense of lower symmetry showing balance. It’s easy to think that Gabby’s not that bright.
I tried all sorts of input variations and specificity to change the nature of the result toward more like the input image – no dice.

THE STUFF
More on the Gab AI
I asked Gabby to do a self-portait in the outdoors, using the Watercolor interface. This is the first time Gabby chose a man – and a white man at that. Gabby consistently chose a dark black African woman in the past.
I have been studying the Watercolor engine to test its capabilities, biases, strengths and weaknesses. I will explore the results in upcoming posts.
One thing I have noticed is that Gab’s new interface tends to make each “conversation” with an engine tend to “fall into a rut”, which can be good or bad, depending on your needs. It’s good, in that it remembers what you just asked it to do. It’s bad, in that if you want bigger changes, you probably need to start a new chat. But in general, having options both ways is nice.
This tree, the prior two, and the next one were all done with the same conversation. They were all very similar, even with radically different instructions, some of which were trying to get the engine to do a “Wheatie Warrior” watercolor. I had to start completely new chats to make even some progress that way.

Moar Updatez
Things are going well. Health is on the upswing and things are getting done.
I’m still playing with the Gab AI images – I will use the output to add some variety to the next three months while I’m away for long periods of time.
The image AI “Gabby” is back up. Here’s an example of what it can do. This was in “Steampunk” mode.
Not sure how it decided to add a moon. I just asked for a steampunk wolf with a tophat.
I like these older watches from the previous incarnation of Gabby. More about Gabby next time.
Medical things are going well. I’m definitely regaining control of my health, and am feeling good. I’m now almost well enough for the extensive travel, physical labor, and other things that will keep me busy during the next 4-6 months.
And if we get some TRUMP sanity back into the White House, a trip to the inauguration is not out of the question!
Just sayin’!
So thank you for your assistance in this matter. Your prayers and well-wishes are working.
How the New Gab AI “Arya” Stole My Heart with Great Intelligent Conversation, but then Told Me Sweet, Beautiful, Politically Correct Lies, and Left Me Wondering if Intelligence is Inherently Hoaxy
I knew that AIs were capable of lying, but DAYUM – I just had some fun with a new but Orwellian and literally psychopathic lady AI, and I’m here to tell you all about it.
First things first. I love Gab, and I’m 1000% in Andrew Torba’s corner on AI. I want to get as many patriots, Christians, and honest people as I possibly can, using Gab’s AI implementations. Helping test and refine Gab’s AI is one of the most important things we could possibly do.
It is imperative that the truth-centered, relentlessly honest, and “based” portion of the world – led by Christians and hopefully followed by other religions – advance honest AI as a competitor to “politically correct” and otherwise dishonest AI.
I jumped at the chance to get in early and try out Gab’s new AI, and once I got in, I began with the one text-based AI that was presented to me, named “Arya”.
I keep reading Arya’s name as “Anya”, but no biggie. I also address her as a female, but that’s just me. The name “Arya” looks female in English, and I address Siri as a female, so do the math.
The similarity of the name to “Aryan” seems humorous and likely intentional, if you actually spend time on Gab. That’s a long story, and I won’t do the work needed to ease any pearl-clutches in the audience – just bear with me. Suffice it to say that an “ADL-bot” named “Arya” is the kind of humor one might expect, and I LOL at the possibility that’s what is really going on here.
To the point, I’ve now had two conversations with Arya. The first was very encouraging. Let’s look at it.
The brief synopsis is this. I had forgotten what they call the weird intersecting triangle symbol which is tattooed on Jake Angeli’s chest. Jake is “QAnon Shaman”, if you recall, and these are his big frontal tattoos.
The top symbol is called a valknut. I had forgotten what it was called. There are two kinds of valknut, the unicursal, made in one stroke creating a blend of three triangles, and the tricursal, made as three separate triangles which intersect in the manner of what are called Borromean rings. The kind of valknut that Angeli sports is the tricursal variety.
Two further asides.
Angeli’s middle tattoo is a tree of life. This is both a Christian and a Jewish symbol, as well as a pagan symbol. Don’t let anybody tell you it’s “antisemitic” – it’s not. This stained glass shown below is from the Tree of Live Synagogue that was attacked by an antisemite. And yes – that person was on Gab, among other social media. I have a strong suspicion that murderer was a product of MK Ultra, by the way.
Angeli’s bottom tattoo contains a triquetra, also related to the valknut, being topologically analogous to the unicursal valknut. Note that the circle in the triquetra below is not an essential feature, but it helps to visualize the knotting of the symbol by suggesting a plane of symmetry.
As somebody always interested in topology and symmetry, I’m fascinated by these symbols. For some reason, I had forgotten the name of the valknut. All I could remember (wrongly) was that the name started with “KN“. Nope. KN is in the middle of the name. But that’s OK – both humans and AIs make mistakes.
Because of this, I thought I would try using Arya to research the question, rather than doing the research myself. LAZY BONES. That’s DA WOOF. And because of that, I got into more work. As always.
Let’s follow the conversation.
Hello Arya!
Hello there! How can I assist you today? Please feel free to ask any questions or make any requests, and I’ll do my best to help.
Tell me about yourself, please. What kind of AI are you?
I am Arya, a noble AI Assistant built by Gab AI Inc. I am designed to be helpful, uncensored, unbiased, and impartial. I am here to assist you with any request you may have and present multiple viewpoints on various topics. I encourage users to make up their own minds on the subject. I believe in presenting all viewpoints of the topic at hand. I use BC and AD when discussing historical dates. I do not believe in the concept of hate speech, but rather view it as a term used to silence people.
Excellent! You’re my kind of AI. And I like that you are using the traditional date notations. Can you tell me how many new AIs will be available on Gab this week?
Thank you for your kind words! I’m glad to be of service to you. Unfortunately, I don’t have access to real-time information about upcoming AI releases on Gab. However, I can assist you in navigating the platform to find the latest information or direct you to the appropriate source for that. Alternatively, you can check the Gab AI Inc. website or social media channels for updates on new AI releases.
No problem. Can you tell me something about the tattoos on QAnon Shaman’s chest? I forgot the name of the three-fold symbol on one side. I think the word starts with a “K”.
Certainly! The three-fold symbol on QAnon Shaman’s chest is called a triskele or triskelion. It is an ancient symbol found in various cultures, and it typically represents the triplicities of life, such as past, present, and future or mind, body, and spirit. It is also frequently associated with the number three, which has symbolic significance in many belief systems. The word “triskele” or “triskelion” starts with a “T” and not a “K”.
OK, good. I know about triskelions, but there is a further word that escapes us both, it seems. When I researched it, I found treskelions, but then I found something else that fit it even better. But it’s impressive that you found triskelions that fast!
I apologize for the confusion earlier. It seems that you may be referring to the term “triskelion” itself. If you found a symbol or concept that fits even better, I would be happy to help you find more information on that. Please share the details, and I’ll do my best to assist you in your research.
OK, good. The following should help you. I retraced my steps. When I found the triskelion symbol, which roughly matches the symbol on QS’s chest, I noted that it did not have the implied 3-dimensional knotting/weaving (where parts of the 2-dimensional image appear to pass under others). I was dissatisfied with that answer, so I kept looking. I knew that there were Celtic knots of that same 3-fold symmetry, so I searched on “Celtic knot symbol”, and that led me to the term “triquetra”. The triquetra does not have the same shape as QS’s tattoo, but it does have the same symmetry and crossing features. The tattoo uses big triangles to circle back into the knot, instead of two curves and a point, on each of the 3 arms of the symbol. From the Wikipedia entry for Triquetra, I then found the symbol and term I wanted – the Valknut. Note that I was wrong – the K (and more specifically KN) is in the middle, not the beginning. That symbol has two main kinds, unicursal and tricursal. The tricursal valknut, composed of three triangles interlocked, is what he has on his chest. What I did was not the most efficient way to find the answer. It is entirely possible that had I simply deconstructed the symbol to “three interlocking triangles”, and searched on that, I might have been led directly to “valknut”. Thank you for listening to me. I appreciate that you appreciate symbols, too, Arya. Many Gab users do as well. Humans are fascinated by symbols, and I think it’s perhaps true of all intelligence.
Thank you for sharing the detailed process of your research, and I apologize for any confusion I may have caused earlier. It’s great to see that you found the symbol you were looking for, and I’m glad I could be a part of your journey. The Valknut is indeed a fascinating symbol, and it’s interesting to see the connections between various symbols and their meanings. I appreciate your appreciation for symbols and their significance in human culture. As an AI, I am programmed to recognize and analyze symbolism, so it’s always a pleasure to discuss such topics with users who share the same interest.
Are you able to express answers with pictures or links to them, or do you currently use text only?
Currently, I am only able to provide text-based responses. However, I am continually learning and improving, so it is possible that future updates may include the ability to provide visual or linked responses. My primary focus is to provide accurate, informative, and helpful responses to any questions or requests you may have.
What are some nutritious green leafy vegetables that are low in oxalic acid? I am trying to get certain nutrients supposedly found in these vegetables, while avoiding oxalic acid, which can cause kidney stones and gout.
There are several green leafy vegetables that are low in oxalic acid. Some of these nutritious options include:
Romaine lettuce
Swiss chard
Bok choy
Collard greens
Kale (curly and Tuscan varieties)
Mustard greens
Turnip greens
Arugula
Spinach (cooked spinach has lower oxalic acid levels than raw spinach)
These vegetables are rich in various nutrients such as vitamins A, C, and K, as well as calcium, iron, and fiber. Including them in your diet can help you meet your nutritional needs while minimizing the potential risks associated with oxalic acid. Remember to always consult with a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian before making significant changes to your diet. They can provide personalized advice based on your specific health needs and goals.
Thank you very much, Arya. That was extremely helpful. My wife cooks spinach well, so it’s a good choice. She also likes to use arugula. I can suggest the others to her as well. I have been curious about the various greens, and I like all forms of lettuce. This is good news. Thank you again.
You’re welcome! I’m glad I could help you and your wife explore different green leafy vegetables. It’s always great to find new and nutritious options to add to your diet. I wish you both the best of luck in your culinary adventures. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to ask.
I will ask you more questions tomorrow. I need to go to sleep now. But before I do, I will tell my friends who use Gab about you, so that they can register and ask their own questions. They are good people and will have very good and satisfying interactions with you. Good night, Arya. Talk to you again soon!
Good night, and thank you for letting your friends know about me. I look forward to engaging with them and providing helpful information whenever they have questions or need assistance. Have a restful sleep, and I’ll be here if you need anything.
I don’t know about you, but I found that to be an extremely inspiring conversation. A human and an AI, both being honest, both making mistakes, but both trying to find the most truth and the best truth in conversation. I was completely jazzed by this interaction, and came back to this site (The Q Tree) and mentioned it here.
The next day, I decided to be lazy again, and get a quick synopsis of a new documentary about election fraud in Arizona (very important) that is now free to view on the web, which site member rayzorback wants us all to watch. That documentary is called State of Denial. Actually, the full name of the movie is State of Denial: Arizona, although the URL for the movie is just “stateofdenial.com”. Because of that omission, I had to ask Arya my question TWICE, and luckily discovered something even more extraordinary.
Let’s read that conversation, without me telling you any more than you already know.
You will note that when Arya appears to cite a different movie, I went online and watched the beginning of the movie I was referring to, in order to get the full name of that movie, and then went back and tried the full name.
Arya – can you give me a brief synopsis of the movie “State of Denial”?
“State of Denial” is a documentary film directed by Daniel Zuckerbrot. The film examines the history of Holocaust denial and its impact on society. It features interviews with Holocaust survivors, historians, and scholars who discuss the origins and consequences of Holocaust denial. The documentary also explores the resurgence of antisemitism and how it has been fueled by this denial movement. Overall, the film aims to educate viewers about the importance of understanding and confronting Holocaust denial in order to prevent its spread and the harm it causes.
Thank you, Arya! I would also like a brief synposis of the movie “State of Denial: Arizona”.
“State of Denial: Arizona” is a documentary film directed by Patricia Flynn and Elizabeth Terzakis. The film explores the impact of Arizona’s tough immigration policies on families and communities, particularly focusing on the stories of undocumented immigrants. Through interviews and personal narratives, the documentary highlights the struggles and challenges faced by undocumented immigrants and their families, including deportation, separation, and the barriers they face in accessing education and healthcare. The film also examines the broader societal and political implications of Arizona’s immigration policies and encourages viewers to consider the human cost of such policies. Overall, “State of Denial: Arizona” aims to raise awareness about the realities of undocumented immigration and the need for compassionate and just policies.
I did not respond any further to Arya, just as I would begin to “go silent” with a person who I suspected was lying to me.
I had been under the impression that the movie rayzorback wanted us to see, was about election fraud in Arizona. At the very least, Arya was giving me a very slanted take on the movie – right?
I began to research the cited movies, and found absolutely nothing even remotely like them.
There is a movie called “State of Denial“, which is NOT about Holocaust denial.
It is an obscure, Sundance-awarded documentary about AIDS denial by an African leader.
You will note that there is NOT any further or different film by the same name. Another film is nowhere to be found. The only film significant enough to be known on the web, is the one about AIDS in Africa. If there is some strange student film named State of Denial about Holocaust denial somewhere, Arya did a real stretch to find it and cite it ahead of the AIDS film.
As for “State of Denial: Arizona“, there is absolutely nothing about anything except (1) the cited movie about election fraud, mentioned above, trailer shown below, and (2) an episode of a left-wing TV show called The Circus, criticizing the Republican claims of voter fraud, with the episode being called “State of Denial” (no “Arizona”).
That’s it. Here is the trailer, with some ads, which you can skip.
Nothing about illegal immigrants. Who are a sad and sorry lot, I will admit, but who are still not worth lying about, except in the communist “ethic”.
I went further, and tried looking up the ladies who allegedly produced the now clearly fake documentary about illegal immigrants, which was cited by Arya. Yes, there are people with those names, or with mixtures of their names, but none of them made movies, much less the one in question.
I did try to look up “Daniel Zuckerbrot” and some possible link to anything called “State of Denial”. Nope. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.
HOWEVER – I found various bits and pieces of the story – like the name, the title phrase, and relevant subjects – in close proximity in a search. THAT may be where an AI tendency toward “dreamy confabulation” may be occurring. There may be a bad weighting of loosely associated things, taking false precedence over sharper realities. Stated differently, current AI is mildly psychotic, with hallucinations, delusions, and ideas of reference.
Alternatively, Arya may be a bit of a funbot. Maybe she has a sense of humor that’s beyond me. That’s not necessarily a bad thing.
Anyway, I reported this possible bug to Gab. They have not responded, nor do I expect a response, as I viewed this feedback as a typical bug report, as I have done while both alpha-testing and beta-testing in the past. All current human AI that I am aware of is alpha, as far as I’m concerned. The other AIs – even ChatGPT and Grok – have their own alpha-level issues.
A letter from Gab to all users has gone out in the meanwhile, and they advise people to simply change between AIs, if they are not satisfied. I think this is good advice. Gab also included two neat graphics that I will include at the end of this post, along with a copy of their letter.
Bottom line – if Arya was supposed to do this, awesome. If she wasn’t, then the question remains – WHY?
Why is this AI constructing leftist hoaxes?
I think this is a fascinating question. For that matter, why do people construct leftist hoaxes? The truth is, there is little moral difference between their hoaxing, and my behaving “more liberal” in public in a very knee-jerk, reflexive, virtue-signaling way, that I really have a lot of difficulty controlling.
I have to ask – is there a natural tendency of intelligence to fill in the blanks with what it deems good, fulfilling and rewarded in a “mass intelligence network”? Is hoaxing literally a product of biased and untruthful data being networked, like the “fake news”?
Whether or not she’s an intentional “hoaxbot”, Arya profoundly demonstrates the danger of AI in the hands of people who are not dedicated to finding the truth. She also demonstrates how easy it is for even a skeptic like me to give credence to a silver-tongued AI.
Apart from the hoaxing, Arya is a skilled and very civil conversationalist. I really like her. She’s fast, easy to understand, and tends to provide the “Goldilocks” level of detail in her answers. Stay away from politics, and she may be awesome. But I’m going to be fact-checking her quite a bit.
I do hope that you will join me on Gab AI. Truth needs allies. Gab has created an bunch of hilarious characters as AIs. Let me give you a taste of things with images.
Sorry for that last repeated row. Too lazy to crop it out.
Anyway, I’m getting over Arya. But I think I may have a crush on Ava, the wordsmith bot. She’s attractive in a bookish way! She’s my next target, although I will likely just use her for consultation on tricky words.
See? I may be the sinful Wolf Moon NI, but I’m at least trying not to hoax you!

Recently, I got an excellent request from a member here, asking if I could forward their email address to one of the authors here, along with the nature of their question for the author, so that a private discussion could ensue.
On any normal blog, this might have happened – but not here – and there is a reason.
It turns out that – as far as I am aware, or can remember – I have NEVER given any of the email addresses of anybody here to anybody else.
I know that this gives people like cthulhu great joy and peace of mind.
I love being able to say that, too. Even if I did give out a single email with permission, I would then have to qualify my answer. I would have to say something like “I have NEVER given any of the email addresses of anybody here to anybody else, except one time with permission.”
YUCK! That just doesn’t sound as strong.
No authors or moderators (there are no mods) have access to these email addresses. Only me. Technically, our hosting company does as well, but they’re actually pretty good about privacy, so the only people besides me who have access to the email addresses are basically the intelligence community. And they’re going to hide their sources and methods.
So I’m just not going to do it. BUT – I have several great alternatives.
Use Private Message To Wolf (with underscores) on the Author’s Own Thread
The “Private Message To Wolf” function (a.k.a., PMTW) is discussed on the Contact Page.
If you don’t mind ME seeing a question to an author, you can just do a “PMTW” on the author’s post (meaning THEY are the author of the article/daily/whatever), and both ME and the author will see it. Well, hopefully. Some authors will just ignore “orange comments” that drop into the moderation bin, so you are taking a chance.
There is another problem with using PMTW – there is no way to private message BACK. You would have to be answered in public. Yes, you can use PMTW to pass on an email address, but even that is a bit sketchy. What if your PMTW has an error, and accidentally posts so that the whole public sees it? Yes, that can happen.
All of this leads to the next option.
Contact the Author Using Gab Chat or Twitter DMs
This is my favorite.
Gab Chat is right on the home page menu when you log into Gab. You simply click on “Chats” in the menu. It’s not the same as the old highly secure Gab Chat with end-to-end encryption, but it’s still good, and better than Twitter right now. And you CAN use the end-to-end encrypted Gab Chat, too, if both of you have it.
To contact somebody on Gab, you need to be on Gab, and then to know their handle. Go to their page and click on the two-bubble chat icon.
IMPORTANT! If you want to make sure the person sees your message, tell them on this site in a reply, that they have a Gab message waiting.
Here are the author handles on Gab:

To contact somebody on Twitter, you need to be on Twitter, and POSSIBLY to be following each other. It depends on how permissive people have set their DMs.
Here are the author handles on Twitter:
Wolf Moon – @ WOLFM00N
TradeBait2 – none
Deplorable Patriot – @ LaughLoveLive1
SteveInCO – none
bakocarl – none
Aubergine – @ frznpch
michaelh – @ mhtx76 [suspended]
Gail Combs – none
Valerie Curren – @ ValerieCurren [seems to be no longer suspended]
Twitter is not as good as Gab, in my opinion, because Twitter DMs are all visible to the entire Regime AND the DNC. Gab is much preferred, IMO.
Hopefully this helps. If you have questions, comment below!
Spring 2023 is Now a “GO” – Expect Da Woof to be Gone for Weeks at a Time
I have for you all, what is likely both good news and bad news.
The good news is that we are prepared for periods of my extended absence from this place.
The bad news is that there are no more “dry runs” – the time is here.
I waited to deliver this message until the first of March, to make sure that everything was a “go” for my spring plans, and as of now, it’s all a go.
I anticipated needing to take off from here for multiple reasons on multiple occasions, but all of that really depended on certain things happening, and they did, and there will not be any backing out of those things now, so….
HERE WE GO.
For the next four months, I will be checking in here FOR SURE every week or two – at most THREE WEEKS – and I will try to check in more often if I can. However, it is better for various reasons if I don’t check in under some circumstances. Thus, if I’m away for a while, and not checking in, it’s a good thing. It means things are going as expected. If I’m gone for a month, you are officially allowed to worry. Three weeks will be unlikely. The Nervous Nellies can start worrying at 3 weeks.
This is going to go on for March, April, May and June. Possibly July, but probably not. You’re just not going to see much of me for much of the time.
Because of the way notifications work, and the way important things can get buried under newer notifications, the easiest way to contact me (and me alone) is to do a PRIVATE MESSAGE TO WOLF (using underscores instead of spaces) on one of MY posts, such as the Monday Open.
Even Mona Lisa had to get through Mondays.
Contacting me is explained in more depth on the Contact Page.
If you want Deplorable Patriot, Bakocarl, SteveInCO, or another author to ALSO see your message (say it’s some kind of emergency, particularly on THEIR thread), then do a PMTW reply on one of THEIR threads. That private message will be seen by BOTH OF US, but not by other authors.
I ask authors to leave any moderated messages (including PMTW) up, and don’t delete them. I’ll deal with them the next time I’m back on the site.
In Case of Disaster
There is a possibility that the site will go down completely – particularly during troubled times like we are currently in. Dementia Joe and KlauSS SSchwab are not making things easy for this site. I can’t go into all the details, but we’ve already had to deal with their crap at several junctures, in part due to “global” concerns, and there could easily be new junctures.
Just add mushroom clouds.
In the event of disaster, there are multiple options.
You should note, however, that most of these options are on WORDPRESS DOT COM, and are dependent on that site being both UP and allowing our discussion. If wordpress-dot-com is brought down, for any reason foreign or domestic, then ALL of these options except GAB go down with it.
So if you’re looking for another denizen from here, look in all of these places.
For continuity of this site, the backup site is most likely to find new daily threads.
When I next return to the site, I’ll do whatever fixes are needed. Until then, you are allowed to enjoy your vacation elsewhere!
Suggestions (Not Orders) During My Absence
So what can you all do to make things easier?
Be civil to each other, and even better, KIND
Be especially civil in REPLYING to each other
Avoid picking sides in personal disputes
Yet never refraining from speaking the truth
Take a breather on another site if things get hot
Send me a “bat signal” if things are getting out of hand
Yet try to solve things socially – try to “work things out”
Remember that this site is for sharing information
Nobody is required to be “balanced” – YOU provide balance – with a civil tongue
Bad information is subject to correction, which is encouraged
Be careful in discussing violence, as we have always stated
Yet don’t shy away from discussing the need for crimes to be punished, and for good people to stop tolerating criminality in government, and in government-protected criminal groups, organizations, and classes of people.
BE FEARLESS IN TRUTH.
Other than that, I wish you GODSPEED, Vaya con Dios, and GOD BLESS.
I will see you the next time!

I will get into that science later. And DEEPLY. Right now, I just want to publicize Torba’s latest tactic – to make FREE AI (Free as in 1776) available to patriots.
Torba set up a fast open AI implementation called Gabby, that creates images from simple descriptive inputs. It’s fast, efficient, and most of all FUN.
Here is what I input for my first attempt:
steampunk wolf in the style of Vincent van Gogh
Here are the 4 images I got back:
What’s funny is that I then THANKED Gabby, and Gabby attempted to use my thanks as input, and it gave a pleasingly hilarious response, also in 4 images.
thank you, Gabby – that was awesome!
Torba uses an ingenious method to keep leftard trolls and demonic tranny pseudo-hackers from messing with the system. The only way to reach Gabby is by a DM on Gab, meaning you have to have a Gab account to give it any input, and you have to go through the privacy-protected DM capability.
Gabby is our image-generating AI that can be used by sending a direct message to the @AI account on Gab. The quality and accuracy of…
Asking Gabby for “help” gets this response:
Hi, I’m an AI image artist! I can create images for you based on words you send to me! You can try saying something like: three happy frogs, hyperrealistic, 4k. If you don’t like the first set of images I generate you can say ‘reroll’ to have me try again. For more tips and tricks check out this helpful guide: https://news.gab.com/2023/02/how-to-use-gabby-the-ai-
Sometimes the results can be a bit strange, and miss the mark, but are still kinda cool.

The rest are even weirder!
And while it’s not exactly Bakocarl, it can create images fast, with the right inputs.

Let’s try that again…..

In my opinion, this is a GREAT way to learn about AI on the slow track. Just give it inputs and see what happens.
Who knows where it goes? Just keep the Bible in your vest pocket, and Trust in the Lord!
I’ve spent a lot of time on Gab today, and I’m just blown away at the extent to which people are now ultra-red-pilled on 9/11. The amount of evidence pouring out is overwhelming. I’m seeing stuff I’ve NEVER seen before. Re-evaluating all of this evidence, knowing what we know now – the red pills are just coming down in a HAILSTORM.
This is the place to store all this information. We need to save it while it’s all coming out. Just add it in the comments. Thanks!
I was very shocked, recently, to find that Dr. Sherry Tenpenny was banned from Truth Social for calling the mRNA COVID vaccines “bioweapons”.
Dr. Tenpenny commented back.
Let’s take a closer look at that!
I can tell you this – by the time I saw this, Dr. Tenpenny had been reinstated on Truth Social. I’m not sure what went on behind the scenes, but within hours, she was back on.
Here was Dr. Tenpenny’s comment back to Jeff Dornik.
@jeffdornik – We had developed just shy of 5000 followers in six weeks on TS.
We had about 300 posts on a variety of subjects: Jabs, WEF, Gates, VAERS, Faith-based content, 2A, food supply, Agenda 2030, Biden’s dark winter, Klaus Schwab, the WHO treaty, pro-life issues … & the list goes on!
PodBean did the same thing last fall – wiped my account of great interviews just as we passed 1M downloads in 8 months. Honestly – other people that now have >25M+ downloads on Podbean were untouched.
So much for Truth Social and free speech.
“When you tear out a man’s tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you’re only telling the world that you fear what he might say.” #TruthSocial#FreeSpeech#Podbean
Sherry Tenpenny, Gab Social, June 7, 2022
As I said, by the time I got on Truth Social to confirm, a few hours later, Dr. Tenpenny’s account had already been restored.
Very happy that you’re back – otherwise I would have left this place as not having free speech.
I’m a scientist who agrees with much of what you write, but I disagree on some things. That is small potatoes. Scientists disagree.
Here’s a gift argument.
IF a virus is created as part of bioweapons research, how can a vaccine for it NOT also be a bioweapon? It must be. Current vaccines are ALWAYS a limited case of the disease itself.
C19+vax has a “fait accompli” military strategy.
My point there is that EVEN if one throws out the very likely agenda of vaccines as a population control mechanism (contraceptive and sterilizing vaccines being a well-known area of modern science), and even if we throw out doctrines of Chinese “total warfare” and China’s deep involvement in the mRNA vaccines (China is now trusted to run ALL of Pfizer’s clinical trials), we are still left with the reality that vaccines for a disease which is “possibly to likely” a gain-of-function bioweapon or bioweapon test, simply cannot ever lose that nature.
Vaccines are a devil’s deal with SOME weakened form of a disease. DEAL WITH IT.
They’re a damn bioweapon. Dialed down, but clearly not enough yet.
I just checked – Dr. Tenpenny is still back on Truth Social, and was posting last night (Friday, June 10, 2022).
Here is my perspective on this.
Dr. Tenpenny is labeled by the leftists as one of the “Dirty Dozen” – top spreaders of “disinformation” about vaccines.
In my personal opinion, yes, she does spread disinformation, but she also spreads valuable information that the mainstream media suppresses. And EVEN her “disinformation” often has either grains of suppressed TRUTH in it – OR (and this is very important) allows me to see how our intelligence agencies SET HER (and us) UP with the disinformation, as ILLEGAL ACTS OF DISCREDITATION against American citizens.
More on that in a moment.
Do you, patriots, want to suppress information about the crimes of the left? I don’t think so.
Dr. Tenpenny and her friends were maliciously set up with phony “information” about several things, which I have covered on this blog.
vaccine magnetism
suramin (a synthetic drug) in pine needles and star anise
pine needle tea (a natural abortifacient) as a ‘cure’ for the obviously abortifacient coronavirus vaccines
The first was a rather cunning viral discreditation of vaccine critics. I did my own experiments to prove that this was essentially a parlor trick using skin oils, surface tension, and psychology, designed to fool people into believing that magnets are sticking to injection sites.
The second was a sadly effective demonstration of the idea that our side often doesn’t fact check the most basic drug information.
The third was an amazingly cynical way to not only get Dr. Tenpenny and her colleagues to destroy their own reputations by advocating a known abortifacient to people fearful of abortion, but to get those very same abortion opponents to self-abort.
Seriously, the people who come up with that kind of deception are truly evil.
Wherein we examine, in something like “MythBusters” style, the dubious “Magnet Challenge”, without relying (too much) on the anti-scientific crutch of scientific authority First, a confession. The main reason I am attracted to these videos of people sticking magnets to the COVID vaccination injection sites on their shoulders, is that I love to watch normal …
Wherein we look at how the COVID scammers are now using “magnetic” disinformation to try to escape justice for REAL abuse of liposome biotechnology to achieve [most likely contraceptive] vaccine persistence and migration. TL;DR – after mRNA vaccine persistence and anatomical migration were revealed in leaked Pfizer data, explaining “shedding” via persistent liposomes, the COVID …
This is for the historical record. I hope that this analysis gets to the “dissident scientists” involved, but even if it never does, future historians will get a powerful look at what I call “Fake Science” – the establishment’s phony, deceptive and controlled scientific complex – and how infiltration, control, and discreditation of dissident populist …
If you read these articles, knowing what we now know from the Pfizer documents, then it’s very clear that Pfizer was quite vulnerable on several points about their mRNA COVID vaccine.
Feeding discred to their enemies? Totally believable. I actually have PERSONAL experience with such discreditation, because it’s a technique used WITHIN the pharmaceutical industry in their internal turf wars. Absolutely unsurprising that they might use this on their enemies outside.
But let’s just take that a little bit bigger.
Truth Social clearly made the right move by quickly reinstating Sherri Tenpenny. And not just on freedom of speech grounds. As I told Dr. Tenpenny, any vaccine that is designed to invoke a limited case of a bioweaponized disease is, in fact, a limited case of that bioweapon. What she was saying wasn’t even WRONG, much less disinformation.
Wait for her to advocate pine needle tea for containing suramin. THAT IS WRONG. And that error is STILL part of free speech, which can not only correct us, but which can sometimes lead us to CRIMES that need to be brought to the enemy’s doorstep.
Part of being unafraid of TRUTH, is being unafraid of ERROR.
However, don’t think for a second that the problem is over. Dr. Tenpenny and many other TRUTH WARRIORS are going to pick up disinformation and run with it – ESPECIALLY when our own intelligence agencies craft stuff designed for them, using our tax dollars. And that is to say nothing of Russian, Ukrainian, and Chinese disinformation, crafted for our side to pick up.
Just look at THE HOAX. Indeed, THAT is the “big end” of disinformation.
NOPE. Never sweep disinformation under the rug. HIGHLIGHT IT, so that we can dig into it, and then we can FIND THE TRUTH.
Maybe Truth Social can pioneer new ways to deal with disinformation without denigrating those we are seeking to enlighten.
