Thanks mama thats one area to keep an eye on for today

as I recall, someone said we would be getting energy from the galactic center since we no longer have the sun in front of us. I noticed the cosmic ray chart was getting hits last week, and now the data is hidden. I wonder if North Korea is a ploy to keep our eyes off of space weather.

Somethings way off, as if this whole war event is staged and they are awaiting their next orders. Attention is completely off Israel and the middle east. The lie is different on every level! Nice to see you IJS!

I know this was natural as it was so deep but was wondering, what an EQ would look like if there was a nuclear blast? I know this is a thought from all the NK rhetoric but it did pop in my head when I first saw it.

Go Shad, go! LOL, don't they know we have a shield of protection on this thread! Love and light rule here AC!

Thanks for the updates everyone! Am going to check out all the interesting links and videos. Keeping our eyes and hearts open today.

Report - report - report!!!

HI AC,
I can vouch for Tiny Trink! You can take her out of that equation.

Y'all need to NOT link to the troll/shill posts so they can be deleted

Who deletes them since Gabe is not around?

Hi Shad...good to see you too!
yes...something is up. I tend to think it must be space weather they are trying to draw attention away from. Science sites with missing data or shut down entirely. Uptick in Magma moving...el hierro...Indonesia...Iceland...sea floor craters....manatees dying in florida...seals dying in California. Sinkhole... whatever is impacting earth is growing exponentially each year. Crushed tectonic plate last year and continuing to fall apart...who knows what happens this year.

When reported, Mods do

Gotcha!

Hi ya'll, long time time no post just lurking about. Question, as I must of missed it, where did Gabe go? I have noted I don't see him post.

He said he couldn't post for awhile. That is all we know.

If you will notice, most are gone

El Q's is needing help too.

On it Mama. Pests need to bother others.

Thank you for teaching me something new!

Same one was shilling a couple of other threads also. They seem to be out in force today and notice, most do NOT have a country of origin.

You are most welcome TT

Thank you Mama, Shad, WH and everyone who came to my defense!!

I appreciate you for having my back and protecting the energy of this thread.

I am pretty sure I know who it is and it is all good.

Time brings all truth to the surface.

However, I must say what a compliment, to be thought of as being SO or BL (aka TUK on yt)!! Sorry to disappoint I am just the delivery system to the thread, just like the newspaper. Remember we already had this conversation AC?

I have my own gifts that I share when needed.

So now, I will again surround this person with healing energy and move forward.



Much Love,

Was probably banned, again! You are a sweeter spirit than I am!
