and i will make one i'm just not going to make tonight but believe me i'm going to make one

yeah uh if you saw in the comments uh we're ha julium is having a great sale right now

the 9x6 gem cut fire polished beads for only 38

and they're they're beautiful trish is used a ton i've used some yeah yeah i should have brought all mine

up here so i could shut it off a little bit yeah i didn't think of it either i

is the sun okay do you think is that i'm gonna be coming down yeah can i close

the curtain on the top of your desk not totally

let's see i'll flip down and we'll see how it looks let's see how oops i did not need to do that wrong button

stop the camera hi zach hi honey so glad to see you let's see i

have this camera up so high it looks like um oh yeah it is i'll have to go okay

i don't know yeah that's bright all right give me a sec i'll be right back patty that'll be so pretty to use the technique with it with a choker oh yeah

that'll be gorgeous that'll be really gorgeous i'm just gonna drop this down here guys

so it doesn't look so creepy that i'm looking

excuse me there we go we don't care sun here in central pa so i love

yes we're glad for that we're definitely glad for the sun so if you haven't seen yet this is our

project for tonight lacey lacey nicey

so i made it as an anklet but you can certainly do it as a bracelet or it would be a

really pretty choker too beautiful yeah i think patty said she's gonna do that yeah and then i have a wooden button

just with a pretty design on it but um jules has lots of lots of and she has

plain ones so you can put a pretty design on but for today i'm going to use this one

but yeah so i'll show you what materials we need for tonight

so spotlight you babe how about that oh yes please

there we go so we have eight o's two colors of edo's

and then two colors of eleven o's is what you're gonna need and a fun bead board

i think last i heard there was three more left for this month's uh

creative soul box and this comes with it so i love that little board oh my goodness it's perfect size

i know so cute uh you'll need some hemp now somebody from another country was asking

what other kind of material i would say anything that you feel is strong enough and holds

together um maybe waxed linen um [Music]

i'm trying to think what about like s lawn or cedar oh yeah start thank you i couldn't pull those words

that's okay so you want a heavier kind of thread you know if you want to do it with the

wildfire by all means you could i i just i i i felt like it felt beachier and

just kind of you know gave it a a beachy summery vibe by doing this but

you can certainly do it with the beading thread too um

a pair of pliers to help put your thread on your needle and a pair of cutters

and a loom so not too much is needed tonight i know some people already got

their their supplies and so hopefully

if you're new tonight i will go over warping this is our small wisdom wire

it is the same size as the original jewel looms you could definitely do it on either of those looms you you could

do it on the large wisdom warrior too um

so to do an anklet you'll need um i used a sewing measuring tape so you'll

need to measure your ankle and then you're gonna take one inch off of that

so like i have a nine inch ankle i'm gonna bead for eight inches

um and then that leaves same as bracelets leaves that room for the button or however else you choose to

close it you can choose to close it in different ways i just like the way the button looks for for the anklet i don't

know it's going for that summery yeah i think you nailed it

but i am going to use blue in the original yes i used white but i'm going

to use blue so you can i hopefully that'll pop a little more for you guys to see

white kind of is hard to see online um

so it is only three beads wide so we're gonna

make a base first very simple base that's three beads wide the pattern is

two rows of a solid color and then two rows that has two solid

color and then your accent color in the middle so the one i used i it doesn't come out

online how pretty this bead is but it is um

the transparent rainbow black diamond it's like this gray shimmery

uh toho that that jules has and when you look at it in person it kind of has like

because of the a b on it it has this shimmer to it so it's got like a jewel-ish tone to it so i really liked

almost felt like diamonds obviously not diamonds but it was it was fun

so you're gonna take your loom and whether you have the original or the

small wisdom warrior you're gonna take and you're gonna tie a knot

oops hit my light there

see we've got some new friends if you want to say hi so let's see let's scroll up

and see who joined us here i think i saw yes i did

kelly came in rosalinda debbie nicole

joanne is here hi everyone let's see further down vicky i said did

i say mickey already no i don't know i think he's here robin

wow lots of friends um deborah

jones [Laughter]

becky oh robin got her bot her beads today awesome very cool very cool

so i'm just linda says that was her favorite seed bead color i really love it too i'm surprised i

hadn't used it yet but um so i have this the thinner hemp so this

is 0.5 so yeah so just you could do it with the thicker i just thought it made it more

delicate doing it with the thinner so you're gonna lay it in a groove up

top and then come all the way down and try your best

to eye it in to the right groove on the bottom and then with

the small wisdom wire i hold it right here to hold the tension and i

actually i wrapped twice and i have some old stuff on there excuse me

it happens yes come on all right we'll wrap twice

and that helps hold the tension since we don't have the bar like the original and i'm only gonna

skip one okay then we're gonna wake make our way back up to the top

skip skip one hold it there and wrap twice

and back around so if we have three that means we're gonna do four warps

skip one laid in the groove come to the bottom

wrap twice skip one and of course

my hemp would get knotted right there [Laughter] that's how it always is right it's like

it plans to do that i don't know that experience myself them with wildfire too

and then wrap twice and i hold it when i need my

cutters gonna trim it

get my extra hemp out of the way

and then i'm holding it down here so that i can slide it underneath

and tight tie it off so i slide it underneath create that loop while i'm holding everything

and then pull it tight and repeat the thing that's really nice about the

0.5 is it falls into the grooves nicely you get the larger hemp

or larger thread it may not sit as nice in the grooves but you can definitely

push it down that it holds it

so when you get your wildfire you're gonna do about if you're if

you've loomed before go ahead and do like two wingspans if

you're new to looming do about one to one and a half okay uh doing the two gives us enough to do

the lace up the side but if you're new to beading it's a lot of thread to be trying to handle so

bonnie is in hi bonnie of course miss sack is here we're always

happy to see her and melanie says forgot it was thursday and then saw the text my bad oh good oh good

she said thank you for the text so thank you joan for sending oh yeah we do appreciate you i'm so glad you saw that

that's awesome all right so you're gonna take one end of your wildfire now make sure you need

enough up here um to either do your button or to do your button uh

hole so we're gonna start somewhere around here so the the one thing i've noticed

with the small wisdom wire and the large wisdom warriors is you don't have as much extra waste

so you need to move down a little bit more but you know if you have a larger ankle make sure you measure out and make

sure you have enough room for how much you move down if not you could do this on definitely

do this on the large wisdom warrior and have plenty of room

but you have to move down a little bit on the small wisdom warrior compared to the original just so you have enough

extra leftovers it's just a shorter distance from the

knob and for our new friends and old friends uh

just taking your pliers and squishing down the very tip

of the wildfire makes it easier to thread on your beautiful jewelry needle which for me was sticking out right

there hanging out on my little piece of cork waiting for me i love that

when i first opened my box i thought something was wrong yeah i did what happened

to you and then it dawned on me took me a moment

so our pattern tonight as i showed you earlier is

a total of four rows so two rows of your solid color and then

two rows with your accent color in the middle okay and that's what our pattern

is pretty straightforward um so i'm gonna pick up

first time using my board yay now pick up my three seed beads

make sure you go underneath your warps

and slide your beads all the way down now i like to start at the top of my loom but i know that trish likes to

start at her bottom of her loom and either way is fine um

it just looks a little different when you're so you go underneath first

and then you go over the top through all the beads and make sure i always look

to make sure i can see my needle in between

the beads i don't know if we can get that to focus there there we go well

so that's a good way of knowing whether you've made it through and having a different color hemp always helps when i did it

with the white hemp i'm like inside so okay so you can see it really

well um jones says i cheat and use the beadalon big eye needle for looming more

than half the time lol sabrina says hello and vicki say is says

i eyeballed it if it's too short for my ankle it'll be a bracelet if it's too long it'll be a choker

oh there you go great idea so i picked up three more of my solid white color

and irina says what am i doing wrong i'm trying to place an order but it will not work oh

hey senjul is a text yes she'll be able to help you walk through that that's a great idea

ah did you use one of our links maybe our links are broken does joan need to send you a new link

you could try through a new link i don't know does anybody else try and have trouble

it's fun

all right so now we're gonna add in our accent color i'm gonna pick up one solid white

my really pretty gray sparkly and another white

i'm just sliding it down so since it takes a little bit since i

picked up two wingspans if you don't know what i mean i hold my arms out completely and

take make the thread as long as my arms would be one wing span and two would be

doing that twice but if you're new to this maybe just doing one or one and a half

would be good so you don't get all the tangles and

it's real easy you just add in the same way just tie off the new piece

and add it in as if it was the original

so i'm picking up one white one gray and one white

hi elizabeth welcome in i'm glad you were able to get in

and then so under the warp lay in the beads go and then go over top

of the work and go back through the beads same as as we do each week

basic basic weaving here so i'll do a couple more and we'll move

on to the lacy goodness since that's really the newer stuff

unless we have new people and i can repeat a couple more times not a problem just let us know

oh it's lizzy okay hi this lizzy

so i picked up three i'm going under the warps pushing the beads up through

and then going over top of the warps with my needle and making sure i see my needle

and then pulling through i often beat on my couch on my lap

so it's different to beat at a tip you do too yup

i like to have it at an angle i angle it up but that doesn't work to teach you guys

no no it works for my vision though

so as zach says the gray aurora borealis beads remind me of kind of like

labradorite yes yes so

oh and melanie's using her board right now awesome they are lovely

lab dora is very pretty yes yes so you could just tell everybody it's

labradorite right [Laughter] not quite but we're all fancy it's

laboratory color there we go

all right now i'm going back to the pattern one white one accent

and another solid so really whatever color this real simple pattern so

whatever colors i have my light right here and my

microphone so i don't have a lot of mention yeah i hear you girl you have all the arm

movement i normally do

but yeah yes elizabeth or lizzy excuse me sorry

um she is using a does on the base you're gonna need two types of vados and two types of the lemon o's for this

project two colors so i'll show the project again for those who came in a little late so the

base is eight o's and then the lacy part is lebano's and i'm doing it with hemp but if any

kind of stiff kind of beading thread you want to use for your warps works and you could use

the wildfire too um all of that works it's just a four row pattern

um two rows of the solid color and then two rows with your accent color in the

middle so we did warped four and we have three beads

going across for all our new friends

and then go on nut so it went under the warps and now over the warps and that had a big

profile waffle

does anybody need me to do another row or do we feel good with the

base i don't know how many new people we have or hi carmen it looks like carmen's just

joining us hey hi carmen does anybody need me to do another

base row i certainly am welcome to but i want to make sure i get to the lace

well i can bring it back up if we need so i bring over

woo get that out of the way wow look at that that was so quick you were on it

wayne says okay to move on great all right now you can certainly

um for the lace part use your jewel loom needle you can certainly

do that my preference personally is to switch to a a beading needle

so it's just slightly shorter and they're they're

made for beating um yeah so up to you you could do either this is

just my my preference so so i finished off this one over here on

the right and i'm just gonna do my lace up this side so i'm gonna go back

underneath all the warps so don't pull my thread out and just

start so um

so what you have to do though is i have to get myself up to this bead

so right now i'm still at the bottom and i'm gonna work my way back up to

this row to start my loops that way

i start with the smaller loop and go bigger and then that helps me get back

to the place i want to go for the next round

so now since since we're done weaving the beads except for that bottom one it

doesn't matter if you're on top or bottom

so for this first one now if i can remember i have to look what should i do the

first little loop so it's going to be the first one is going to be teeny tiny i

don't know there we go it's just the first one is just

three beads the second one is seven

and then the last one is eleven so we're doing three

seven and eleven that's what i found helped it to lay nicely okay

so we're gonna go so you'll see how we weave back and forth to make this happen

so i'm gonna pick up now we're moving on to the edo's so this part uh not edo sorry levanos so

i'm gonna pick up one of our aurora borealis i think somebody called them

graves or labradorite pick up one of my like

light blue and then another one of our grays

i like the other names better so

so i'm coming out of the third row

so the first row with our accent bead and i'm go i picked up my three

beads for our first loop and i'm going to go in the next

row with our accent

and i'm go i one of you can go all the way through because they're eight o's so and it's

only three beads so it's not a big deal to go back and forth at this point so then we

have our first our first loop there

i can get it very cute okay now

yeah so now i'm over here coming out of our second accent row

i'm going to go into the next first solid row

and come back out

and now we're going to pick up seven still only one blue accent so

one i think i put too many in my tray

wayne says it looks like you used an 8-0 on the other anklet no 8 is the base and 11's

those are 11's yeah they pop though they do look bigger

so i picked up three of our gray and i'm gonna pick up

one blue so that gives us our seven and then three more gray

um debbie she's using eights for the base and elevens for the loops correct

so now i'm gonna go over top of my first loop and back down to the bottom

so we picked up seven so three and three gray and a blue and

seven i found with the 11 0's goes over nicely over top of itself

so we've got our first two loops there and now we're set right in the right

place for our next one go to the bottom one again

weave back out to the same side and now we're gonna pick up eleven

so five gray one side a blue and then five gray the

other side and doing this without my magnifiers

takes a little more effort so vicky here i'll put this question up for you

she is asking being and don't have the magic of the internet can you do the loops at the end of each section

i'm not sure what like as at the end of each one of your edo sections is that what you mean vicky

as you're putting your edo's on you could just pop your lemons in you could do that but what you'll see

will happen is that um with the pattern i had chosen

i got caught on my bracelet here there we go um

it doesn't it fits the pattern nicely but then you'll have to remember in

order to keep doing that this middle one like every other one is this is just a

five so we have the three loops and then we have a single loop the three loops

single loop so you i mean you could certainly do that i like doing it separate it reinforces the bracelet and

then i don't have to think about as much either but you could certainly

do that all right so let's see got my blue i got

five more gray to go

woohoo three that time

all right so now you're gonna go in the second

solid white of the next grouping

so it kind of comes that the pattern is this grouping

and then this grouping then back to the bigger grouping and a little grouping you'll see as we work

along and then the 11 sits nicely over top

of the other ones

and you see my threads now coming out up here so i'm going to go back down through the

the next grouping with our accent bead and i'm just gonna

do i'm gonna pick up the five

so pick up five i pick up two gray a blue

and then two more of the gray

and then just go into the next one

so now very pretty so now we need to weave back up to get

back to the middle up here so going through

the two solid

and back through the first this first uh grouping with your accent bead

so as you can see we're coming out here

and now we're going to pick up our three again so starting our pattern over

she said well vicky says well i'm trying to do this along with you and not quite as fast as you are

i want to do a lace section with you oh so she could probably yeah

just work it by the sections definitely now you get a feel for it yeah so now

we're gonna pick up our seven

picking up three our blue is not two blues one blue four

and three more grey

and we go around our three and down through the solid row

then we've got the two and we need to do one more with the 11s

you're watching me on the big screen tv oh boy

that's what i do to trish when i'm not on with her

oh good to know good well then i pull you up on my devices to leave messages so yes

well she says she likes to re-watch them on youtube after you've

had them live so she can stop in between nice that's awesome that's the best way i

mean of course being live is the best way but of course learn afterwards that's the best way yes

so i pick up five grays and a blue my pretty bead board right now this

board is only available if you get the creative sole kit

and workshop believe it will be available with

something in the future do you remember or yes can a good person if she remembers

i don't um joan might know i don't know if she recalls but um

she's usually better at that stuff than we are but i'm not sure off the top of my head

that's fine something else i wanted to mention tonight and i can't even remember what

it is all right so i picked up 11. so two groupings of five gray and a blue

and i'm going from this white all the way down here over to this white all the way over here

going around my other two loops and getting caught on myself again

the dingle dangles on my bracelet got caught okay so um of course joan comes through

for us again yeah you will also be able to get it with the small whistle here so

yeah that'll be awesome thank you june so the big thing with the lace if you

can see is just making so i found starting with the little one

it it uh you come it's all about directions so it brings you this way and then i go back with the

second loop this way but with the third loop it helps me go up my bracelet so

that was kind of why i'm doing it this way that makes sense um so i had to

think hard about how to make that happen i hear you

and now we're just doing the extra little mini loop of five

and that's the pattern i can i'll keep going or let's see how are we on

oh correction you can get it with the small wisdom warrior now oh well there you go guys

get your little bead board if you don't have the small wisdom warrior that's a great deal yeah it does

let's see um time-wise we look like you have plenty of time if you'd like to continue okay um

go ahead i was just gonna say um usually to do a tie off a cut off the board i

usually wait till about 7 45 but of course that's up to you yeah whatever works best for you that sounds good

i forgot to make the next one but this is fine well we can tie this one off

who knows in 15 minutes a miracle might happen you could get there you go do we have any questions about either

the base i can go back and look at that or about the lace zach says dingle dangle's messing with

you amber i know see they're right here from my my buttonhole bracelet yes

that's such a pretty one going for those vibes too yeah going for

the whole beachy beachy vibe right

picking up our three here for our first loop

now i won't be here next week but trish will be teaching you guys you want to tell them what they have in

store for next week we're going to do a project with soft flex on the original

loom we're going to do some earrings with some pyramid beads i will pop on

hopefully tomorrow to give you the materials list but it's going to be quite fun something

new something exciting for us to try so hey i can't wait i'm excited

i think it'll be fun for everyone to give them another another uh use for their soft flex

now i'm picking up the five so i gotta remember two gray not three gray a blue

and then two more gray awesome zack says very beautiful creations

bracelet darling amber oh thank you she is a darling

can't visit the beach this summer so i had to bring the beach to me and there you go that's the way to do it oh not five

sorry folks this one's a seven i'm not brain that's all right beautiful

there we go we got sharp sharp people in our group here though they have figured

out yeah so i just pulled it back out so i can add in

i need to add in a couple beads here bonnie says it's awesome that you give

the material list early yeah that's something we just started and it seems like everyone likes it so

we're gonna try to continue that yeah seems like

it helps out so hey let's we can certainly do it yeah

it was fun to see some of you had gotten your materials beforehand that's so fun

[Music] love that you're beating along with us there we go

originally i tried five but it didn't lay right so that's probably why it's in my head so three seven and now on to

go gotta just weave back to the right side and do my eleven

so this is the odd count out odd count anklet

robin says i can't wait to get my sun weaver board that i cool

nice we'll have to do a project on that someday for sure

i think i'll have to get an updated one i don't know you have the older one don't you yeah i do

i mean which is fine it still works for sure but to see you know always kind of get the

news yes maria says she's beating along and nicole

says this is very pretty oh thank you

blue sky 75 says thank you so much amber it's so pretty and fun oh

thank you blue sky welcome welcome do we what's your name

do we know you we probably do no one else and we just forgot um

let's see here um carolyn says also pretty project amber

with a smiley face thanks we have the best folks that hang out i

know so yeah so there we go we got the the three the five and the eleven and now

we don't have to weave a lot for this little extra fiber uh fiber here

how are we doing on time um it's about 22. you could certainly stop if you'd like

if everyone feels comfortable how are you guys feeling

yes you know me as joanne blue sky says oh hi joanne becky says very pretty

are you guys feeling are you ready to take it off the loom are you feeling like you kind of got the concept or do

you want us to do a few more whenever to do a few more because i'm being lazy tonight that's okay

i tell you what i worked so hard yesterday i am more out i'm sure tons of videos and

all kinds of stuff so as you can see uh to make the the loops here work

i just add in this little extra loop in between them to bring this is yes ready to

move on where's the link for today's special

joan can you put up uh the uh what was it the gem cut special again

yeah the gem cuts yeah for deborah there that'd be great okay well virtually you just keep doing the

lace until you get to the end yeah so that's i'm gonna tie a little

knot here and i can just finish it up fix it later off the loom it won't be as easy but

it's certainly doable so yeah i've

just tie so don't lose any beads

yes that's a good idea if you do ever have to stop and for some reason guys

just make sure you know where your needle is and you know you don't want your thread to

get pulled because of you know it can pull off the beads things like that

that handy dandy little cork piece yes right of course i'll probably get myself

tangled here but ah all right the original loom you have to turn all the way over this one's really

pretty if you want to turn it over but you don't need to it's just on the ends you need to cut off

maria says this is my first time using eight o's and something other than thread slash wildfire oh fun this is

exciting nice good so

do turn it over a little always hold your beadwork whether you're on this loom or any of the other looms when you

go to cut it off just so it doesn't go flying on you get your cutters in there i like to try if i can

cut all the way back here it doesn't always work but sometimes i can save some of the threads that way

sometimes not but it's always an attempt

and it's harder to cut there but on the small wisdom warrior you just don't have as much extra

as you do with the original

there we go so it takes a little longer to try and get cut it off that way but

i like and then the other side you should be able to just unravel

there we go let's get that out of our way

so you want to pick the longer side obviously to be where you're going to

put um where you're going to tie off to slide your button through

um and then this side will be just your button as you can see i don't have as much

on this side so i just put my button on the shorter side that way i have enough room to make

extra loops if i need and then i'm just getting rid of all

this extra stuff out of my way cut this

and then you're going to take your ends

and just tie them off am i still there

everything got quiet oh you muted yourself for just

so two knots make sure you don't pull too tight that you warp your warps

um so i just like to do two knots i find with hemp i don't always have to

use glue but if you want to you can but i feel like it stays

a lot of the time pretty well when you nod it

but

maria said that it's building faster than the 11 0's i'm used to using

yes it's a real quick the base is a real quick build yeah which is nice that's where the

edo's come in nicely and it gives you a lot of space particularly to go back and forth and do

the lace um with the edo's it's harder when you do the lebanos there's just not as much

space so i have that tied off i threw in my

wildfire in with the knots where you can burn it off glue it

up to you and then i'm just gonna put my button on so i take two

of my threads through one hole and two of my threads through the other

hole and just tie

an overhand knot nothing too fancy

so two overhand nuts

there we go got your button and you can trim these if you want

um sometimes i might trim them to match but otherwise i like to keep them a little longer

but that's preference see as you can see i kept

this one a little longer it also allows me if i need to move the button out a little

while i'm trying to get it situated it makes that possible so i have to cut

the ends of my loops here what were you gonna say trish um um lizzy had a good suggestion she thinks the knobby should

be a screw type something screws type she said something to think

about huh so yeah the knobs on the end of the looms

could be like a screw type yeah you can mention that to

yes absolutely yeah i don't know if i'll remember to tell you tell her that

well she usually watches these so yes she'll probably see it or hear it um

let's see so i trimmed and now i'm just gonna not up against the warp again

go ahead trish if there's another question um not questions but wayne says he agrees with lizzie and vicky said i

gave up trying to keep up she said kitty time is important too especially when she's demanding verbally yes and sherry

says beautiful design thank you thank you everyone and that's so sweet

we do appreciate it i'm not that i had anything to do with this design but i'm just saying in

general we appreciate it when you say those things

when it's my time i appreciate it too yes it means a lot yes

that's what i'm trying to say my interpreter cleared that up for me

though so once again i just knotted off the warps make sure it's not too tight

uh and uh and now i'm going to

lay it out and what i do is i bring my button up and i kind of

gauge how far i need to make my knot from my work in order for my

button to fit in nicole has a question for you that i put up on screen

would a slide clasp work oh yeah most certainly i don't know

how that would hold up on an on an anklet but yeah you could definitely i've never tried a slide class on an

anklet but you could certainly do it i mean it's eight o's so you could it's harder to slide the clasp over the

hem sometimes but if you do the thinner hemp and yeah you should be able to i to

slide it over and we have some wonderful love coming through your tutorials um

mean a lot to us julian this is a lovely design maria says and

vicky says i look forward to my time with you ladies it makes my day we feel the same

[Music] and then there we go

and i like that on our lives that our followers or folks

that join us are such a part of our um broadcast

that's super a super great way to do do it you know it's a little different yeah then a lot

of people do it but that's that's what we enjoy and i think i think it's a great thing because we

can kind of address things in real time yeah and we're here for you guys so

that a try so i'm always on this one yeah me too and the buttonhole i mean

so vicky um you said that you saw daniel wickish use soft flex did she use it on

the um silver silk loom or was it the original oh she said a peyote stitch a piano stitch but yeah

let's i don't think you can do that on the other one for myself

i can't wait to see your creations friends absolutely absolutely so yeah super fun

i'm just waiting to hear back from vicki i'm just curious yeah no i want to know what danielle did too

yeah i love her creations too yeah i actually have the project sitting in front of me right now god's vegeta

now [Laughter] you don't know

yeah it's a little teaser what if i just

go i can't wait i am so excited because i'm so glad one of you suggested it and

the button yeah and we'll do a pendant i know someone asked about a necklace so we'll

have to bust out doing a necklace here sometime soon for sure yeah

the only problem with doing like a necklace on lives is

that we can't try to make them in real time even like bracelets are touch and go sometimes with that or ankles yeah

earrings we can kind of do real time most of the time yeah that's the real in-depth but

we'll make it work we always make it happen oh she said the flexibility of the soft

flex was inspirational but it wasn't on it okay well we're gonna do it

i'm so excited i'm excited too all right guys well thank you to amber and to joan as always

for doing a wonderful project and joan for helping us out in the chat and being so
