As Florida bans legal abortion, where will 84,000 women go?
retarius replied to Social Media's topic in World News
They will go either to another state or to a back street abortionist. Well done de Santis. -
Pheu Thai is reformist, not neo conservative party, Thaksin claims
retarius replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I'm glad he looking better. I was worried about him. Perhaps he will save Thailand from an economic catastrophe, although I doubt it. I remember this debate from my student days in the days of Micheal Foot....Debate: "Is the Labour Party a Reformist or Radial Party." PT sold its soul for power. It is no longer reformist but a wing of the arch conservative general's party. The country cannot afford PT. It need Move Forward and some fresh thinking. It reminds me of my days in the US where the key political issue appears to be abortion and the two parties have no daylight between them except on this issue. The US Uniparty approach to democracy involves selling the voters of each side into penury, in order to hang onto power and serve the real masters, the elite and big business. -
Actually no, I was a very regular exerciser up until about 2 years ago, gym, treadmill and weights every day. Two years ago I developed profound fatigue, I suspect the COVID vaccine, but doctors are not listening to me. I have started to recover and hence my interest in treating my shoulder. It has had a twinge for some time but developed into a problem recently. When one gets old, one wakes up with a new condition every morning it seems.

Ismail Haniyeh: Hamas won't back down from hostage deal demands
retarius replied to Social Media's topic in The War in Israel
Indeed why should it (Hamas)? Giving up hostages now would be simply writing their own death sentences when Israel start the bombing of civilians again after a brief pause. Ditto, when will they ever get the Palestinian hostages back if they allow give the Israelis what they want? I would humbly suggest that when your enemy is a cut-throat, well equipped army with a sense of superiority over the enemy and all mankind and a view that Palestinians are subhuman, you would be wise not to sign any cease fire deal until your survival after the hostage exchange and cease fire is guaranteed. . -
Thai condo market dominated by Chinese and Russian investors
retarius replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Yeah why do the Chinese talk so loud? Why do the hawk and spit? Why do they slam doors? Why do they act like locusts at the breakfast buffet? I had the misfortune once to rent an apartment in Tokyo for 3 months. The Japanese don't like foreigners and so you have to get permission of the current residents even if you are the owner of the apartment to rent to gaigins (farangs). Anyway I couldn't;t believe my luck when I got a 4th floor apartment (no elevator) for about $1800 a month...at 55 sq meters it was way bigger than anything else I had seen. I think every other apartment was rented to Chinese? Ugh, the dried spit in the stairwells, the slammed doors, the furniture being moved around next door, the yelling from next door. It was <deleted> awful. Never again will I willing live next door to a Chinese. -
I think the Muslims are on to something. The poor girl looks like a fish dragged up from the deep, a really ugly fish. On the other hand I don't believe that you can make your self look that nasty for only $50,000 in the States. Who would want to date an idiot that looked like her? If I were a parent I'd top myself.

About 25 years ago I developed a frozen shoulder on my left side. Luckily I had it treated by a surgeon, as second opinion after a doctor who had given two steroid injections recommended surgery. I second opinion, who was the shoulder surgeon for the US Olympic team, fixed it up magically with a steroid injection that looked like it was for a horse It was 35 mls. I commented on the size of the injection (a combination of steroid plus stent medium and long term anaesthetics) and he told me that the normal shoulder takes 25mls without discomfort and what he wanted to do was to build up pressure in the shoulder joint too break the adhesion apart. I walk out of his office pain free for the first time in about 3 years and never had even a twinge of pain for about 23 years. Unfortunately I am also a diabetic and the frozen shoulder has recurred and I cannot now lay on my left side, and the pain wakes me up when I shift side when I am asleep. My previous experience with the frozen shoulder means that I really want to repeat the experience with the mega injection and now bother with any small 5 ml injections, manipulations, surgeries and the like. I have read about hydo-dilation as a superior treatment to conventional treatments in diabetics on the Harvard Medial website. Does anyone have experience with treatments for frozen shoulder or any knowledge of where I can get a non surgical mega injection into my shoulder?

Anutin urges Phuket officials to get tough with foreign offenders
retarius replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Anutin really doesn't care for farangs does he? Usually the policy makers don't express their hatred of people who help the economy. He's a liability in government. -
Health Ministry warns against eating geckos for sexual benefits
retarius replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
As I can attest eating geckos can turn a seemingly ordinary Clarke Kent type into a hung porn stud. I think the Health Ministry are wrong like they were about COVID. -
My personal guideline is that if the nudity is attractive and raises organs then it is not only acceptable but desirable. If the nudity is offensive i.e. done with one or other partner being ugly, short, fat, gross, old etc then it is never acceptable under any circumstances. I used to be attractive naked but since putting on an about 20kg, I have become less attractive than before and hence reduce my naked balcony play to the dusk, evenings and hours of darkness. Leaving the lights on the balcony on, adds to the viewership, but also adds to the mosquito problem for the most delicate tissues.

Clocks run slower in a moving spaceship as well, even atomic clocks. I don't know how anyone can possibly know whether this is an artefact of the time measurement or an artefact of the gravitational bending of space-time. Time is pretty much as enigmatic as it ever was. A big part of me thinks it is an artificial dimension created by human thought.

Oooh Americans won't like this.....that ugly word "competition". The question no one is asking is why the Chinese can make a deliciously styled quality auto like the Atto or the Seal, at much lower prices than Tesla's? It's cheap Labour innit? Averaged over all their cars Tesla's made in the US tent factories still pay massive US Labour rates (or I suppose have to use untrained illegals). The other thing that intrigued me is that Tesla's price reductions are on selected models and the selected example was $20,000 off a self driving model. Who on earth, apart from the stupid buys self driving models, using a testing system being beta tested? Disclaimer: I haven't bought an EV or any other sort of battery driven toy. 9% is a big downturn in a single quarter, but there maybe other factors like Houthis to consider. My hunch though, is that the early adopter part of the market is saturated, and the late adopters either haven't yet, or won't be coming on stream.

Two British Nationals Arrested for Illegally Working at Nightclub in Krabi
retarius replied to webfact's topic in Krabi News
Revoke visas, deport them. Time for farangs, even self important and arrogant Brits to recognise that Thai is an independent country with its own laws that should be inspected and not part of the Empire where they can do whatever they want. I am a tolerant man for people who don't break local laws, but intolerant of the mob who flout local laws. Desert them. -

China’s Advancing Efforts to Influence the U.S. Election Raise Alarms
retarius replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Simple question, if America is allowed to interfere with Chinese elections, with Venezuelan elections, with Russian elections, with EU nations' elections, why can't those nations interfere with US elections? Does international rules based law actually cay that America can influence other nations' elections but they have no right of reciprocity? Come to think about I've hear a lot from Blowhard nations like the US and Uk about 'rules based international law' but I've never seen anything written down about it, nor have any idea about what is in this massive charter. To tell you the truth I don't think it exists.....because if it did and the US lost a case, like with Israeli';s genociding millions by starvation, that the US would do something about it? -
I can see the witch hunt nor over who is responsible for Biden's loss? Will it be his advanced age? No; will it be his advanced dementia? No; Will it be his incompetent 'Didn't Earn It' pick as VP? One heart beat away from the presideny? No; Will it be his moronic DEI/Woke policies? No; Will it be his open borders policies?NO. Well what will it be? To blame will be the endless studipity of the voters who don't understand how great Biden is.....or the recognition of the voters that he is a fraud, a criminal, corrupt and insane and that America will have the GDP of Egypt if he is the President for 4 more years.

RFK Jr. argues that Biden is a bigger threat to democracy than Trump
retarius replied to Social Media's topic in World News
RFK , a man misunderstood, with a lot to offer. Deep state hate his so much he'd be dead at the hands of the CIA if he ever came to be near office. A poor campaign though, especially in the media, where he never rates a mention. My hope is that he'll rob votes off Biden with a good anti-war campaign.- 317 replies
