The forum gets a small commission from every item sold.
Additionally, the forum gets a "bounty" for various offers at Amazon.com. For instance, if you sign up for a 30 day free trial of Amazon Prime, the forum will earn $3. Same if you buy a Prime membership for someone else as a gift! Trying out or purchasing an Audible membership will earn the forum a few bucks. And creating an Amazon Business account will send a $15 commission our way.
If you have an Amazon Echo, you need a free trial of Amazon Music!! We will earn $3 and it's free to you!

After the Vegas shootings, I said to friends, "at least none of the conspiracy nuts will go 'this is a false flag made up event with actors' like they did with 911, Sandy Hook, etc" because there were dozens of videos and over 20,000 people who started running when shots ran out.

We've had fascism for over 100 years. Government allows the means of production to be in private hands but controls it by so-called regulation. Government is a blood-sucking Leviathan that increases in size every year. In America it's done without being an overt dictatorship. Ruby Ridge was an atrocity.I'll let you ban hate speech when you let me define hate speech.

I have a weird request, and since some of you here are quasi-literate, help me find a word that I have lost through my advanced age for a piece I'm writing:
The word means to keep something quiet, or hush-hush, especially like an affair.
Thanks in advance."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham Lincoln
