Swiss Expat Critically Injured in Scooter-Car Crash in Pattaya

Such intersections are all over Thailand. What a simple way to use a bit of paint and some cheap road signs to indicate who should give way! -

Considering his lofty positions in government this isn't surprising and is much more than you might find in the UK or any Euro country. He is a vile man though. -

Bangkok Revamps Sidewalk Standards for Better Pedestrian Access
retarius replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Stop using interlocking pavers....they look great then a concrete truck drives over them, or a tree in an inset grows, and the things are a terrible mess. Use large heavy pavers instead. Also kick off all these awful businesses infesting the sidewalks that make you walk in the road. Can you imagine being disabled and trying to navigate these awful footpaths, dodging speeding motor bikes and noodle sellers, and negotiating the broken and displaced paving stones?- 11 replies

Mass arrests made as US campus protests over Gaza spread

Let free speech live. These people are protesting against Genocide. Arresting them is a move that nazi would make. Vile police should refuse this duty. -

Don't do it.....you said it has low miles, so if it is low miles it wouldn't pay to move to LPG. -

Seasoning Funds - Transferring
retarius replied to Jaymatheson's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Is this 800K taxable? Shouldn't all expats on Non-O's retirement be eligible for an 800k transfer each year? -
Ukraine is running out of men to fight.
retarius replied to thaibeachlovers's topic in The War in Ukraine
This is pretty unusual, usually you have no problem recruiting to defend the homeland so Ukraine's military should be flush with young men willing to sacrifice themselves to save their country, but Ukraine are struggling for men and can't find anyone willing to go to the front. Perhaps this is because their commanders simply look at them as cannon fodder and totally expendable, and because the potential recruits reason that Russia cannot lose....Russia can only draw or win....Ukrainians can die for a draw or a loss. 50 years back if this war were to have taken place, patriotic fervour would have driven thousands to the Ukronazi front lines. It seems that patriotism, thank god, is on the decline. Why should men die for their vile, corrupt politicians and oligarchs? -

The war was caused by endless US provocation via its warmongering NATO alliance. The world will never see peace until this hydra is strangled.- 53 replies

Thai Airways bids farewell to iconic Boeing 747 ‘Queen of the Skies’
retarius replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Great plane. Best in the business when I started flying long haul in the late 70s early 80s. You got off the flight feeling relaxed and headache free. The L1011 (? from some other company) was dreadful for causing headaches in me. -
It is a drug which the manufacturer, Pfizer, had different options to target. It came out of a drug discovery program into epilepsy, but had utility for neuropathic pain. Other painkilling agents do little for neuropathic pain, and many people have neuropathic pain as a sequela to diabetes, so Pfizer studies it in neuropathic pain. It was the first agent ever to be approved for this indiction. Combined with other agents like duloxetine (also approved for neuropathic pain) and tramadol (an older atypical opioid, not approved for NP) it is very effective. By itself it has activity but not outstanding clinical efficacy. Pregabalin beat the FDA standard of having greater efficacy than placebo by 15%, which is not exactly life changing.

This is obviously getting serious. I suppose they should form a committee to write a report on the seriousness of Labubu dolls. Maybe the committee could have several subcommittees to write the several parts of the document. The answer is Chinese scammers....they buy their Labubu dolls cheap in Patpong, Bangkok and then scam poor 8 years olds. It happened with Beanie Babies a few years back.

Wonderful stuff. You know they will never do anything to hurt or inconvenience business polluters or lifestyle polluters ie voters. But let's face it science has little credibility today with thinking people, hence the response from citizens to the whole global warming giant scam, as they see it. Science is a group think driven business where data that doesn't fit the narrative is discarded and promotions and grants are given to faithfuls servant of the Scientific Narrative. Today it was announced that Scientific American has an article saying that there are way more that two sexes....not genders mind you, more than two sexes. Good God, Galileo would be put to death by the scientists today (alliteration).
