He really is losing all cognitive stability. And based on that, we should remove him and his entire admin based on his likely poor judgement due to cognitive decline. Scrap it all and start over!

Thanks! Sent you something about voting analysis by a group and it shows me you were unable to send or receive and had a generic username, but could see old chat so knew it was you

Did your TikTok get suspended?

I’d like to cancel the lot of them!

What an f’ing nightmare

I’m here!

Saw the last name and knew you must be Scandinavian! I even pronounced it in Norwegian, though I keep wanting to make the O an Ø. I lived in Kristiansand 14 years and am now an author myself

Lucin, Utah is where it is from. It is nearly identical to turquoise except for the trace metals that give it its color. Turquoise is colored by copper and or iron. I think variscite is colored by traces of aluminum

I have not been doing much the last couple of years due to health issues, other than my books (I have one jewelry and 4 novels). Will get jewelry posted online eventually, but need to get everything cleaned up and photographed. This is my work

LUCIN variscite. I really hate autocorrect

Yes! Lucia variscite! It is related to turquoise. I’ve been cleaning mud covered rocks that I salvaged from my jewelry/lapidary studio. That was in a batch I rinsed today! Had to salvage a couple thousand pounds of material plus tools and equipment from the mud after Helene floods.
