ASEAN NOW to be purchased by The Thaiger?
retarius replied to TheAppletons's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I have an ad blocker so I don't get plagued with ads like some complain of. I was a member years ago. It was better when it was ThaiVisa. Asean Now added nothing to the platform in my opinion and I find the inconsistent and pro-Israel bias in the moderation very difficult to accept. If it gets taken over I'll give it a try to see how it is. Mike Lister did a survey her a month or two back about what posters felt about the forum....I don't remember getting a feedback of the consolidated comments, but that may well down to my inattentiveness. The things that freaks me out about the forum is these months old commentaries with 6000 odd responses and 35 pages.....at least give us the option to view the latest comments first instead of wading through 000s of comments. -
This thread is nearly two years old. Moderators how about flagging these ancient relics??????

Where do all these shows featuring low to mediocre talent as hosts come from? Does America have a huge 51st state somewhere where they keep millions of aspiring low talent talk show hosts to fill in at 3am when no one watches? I never hear of any of them and suddenly they are a major news item....Ooooh Kelly Clarkson got emotional. Bit fat hairy deal.

I've followed this story for what seems like an age on the Guardian and BBC. What is Rishi thinking? According to the Guardian, that is a very biased left wing newspaper, Rishi has spent already some 400m pounds, and yesterday agreed to give Kagame another 50 million if the legislation is approved. Apparently putting up each deportee costs over 1 million pounds. The legislation sounds like a waste of time to deport a maximum of 200 illegals a year, out the the net hundreds of thousands that come to Britain.

Inside Biden's delay on going "nuclear" at the border
retarius replied to Social Media's topic in World News
An article without merit. Biden could have simply reinstated Trump's executive order than be abolished on Day 1 of his tenure. He is not doing this to give himself an, admittedly weak, answer to the Republicans' horror at his letting in illegals, even those on watch lists who may be feature in future terror strikes. Biden and the Democrats strategy is to bring in millions of illegal aliens, then to pass local legislation allowing them to vote, hoping they will overwhelmingly vote Democrat. How about simply governing in the interests pod all the country Joe? -

Srettha wants Thailand to go back to the vile slavery on fishing boats of a few years back, when Thai seafood was banned in half the world and Thailand was on the US's traffickers list? -

Why not get some farangs to design your systems Thailand. They could teach your know-nothing coders how to set ups an interactive website that actually works. -

This is good news for the world and those of us that think there are way too many people on this earth and that the current population is not sustainable. -
This one problem is why Democrats must replace Biden at the convention
retarius replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Look he has been begging the Israelis and Netanyahu not to strike back at Iran, like he begged them not to murder all those Palestinians and like he begged for them not to starve the Palestinians or attack Raffa....and like MbS with the fist bump Netanyahu told him NO. He has zero prestige in the world, absolutely zero. He's a loser. He needs replacing but with all this woke and DEI $hite from the Dems I don't want them anywhere near the levers of power until woke and DEI has died its death. -
Yep, shootin' irritatin' folk should be compulsory worldwide.

I have invested with a policy of never investing in things I don't understand. I missed out on crypto. I read an excellent piece of advice years back when BTC was in single digits and that was to invest 5% of your savings in BTC. I didn't do it, and of course I could have made a vast amount of money. BTC seems to be more established these days and I'm wondering what the folk on here think about investing 5% of my savings in BTC. It is money I can afford to lose. The thing that attracts me is the 'halving event' and the opening of an ETF in Hong Kong that Chinese will be able to invest in? My investment horizon is 10 to 20 years and I have earned 5.4% net over the past 25 years using buy and hold with Vanguard. Any thoughts?
