I think for a lot it would take more humility than they could muster to admit this guy had them taken in all along. They buy whatever he says, check your brains at the door. No turning back. Pelosi is a far-left radical. Joe is a communist. De Santis says all that censorship if for freedom. DT's whining about persecution and indictment, can't any of these people see just how pathetic and wimpy his act is? Anyone remember when they had Saddam on trial, and when they were asking one of his people about things he did, Saddam stood up and interrupted the court, saying, in effect, "whatever he did was because I told him to it, same with everyone else!" Rarely do you hear politicians and corporate execs take such responsibility. How are these macho guys in their oversized pickups and gun supporting bumper stickers letting themselves be led by a this clown?

If there is one place on this planet with no taboo against picking your nose it is SEA. You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friend's nose. Unless you have permission: that's called consensual sex. Or you can use a toy, like an inhaler.

The laugh comes when some time has elapsed and the people that said these things proclaim right out that they were lying (as opposed to a reporter squeezing it out of them). Even that snake Nigel Farage, when questioned about claims he made leading up to the Brexit vote said right out they were not true, like that infamous campaign bus with that message about billions of pounds lost. Even better was Sidney Powell telling a court 'no reasonable people' would believe her fraudulent election claims. Amazing the number of Americans that hold on to T____'s stolen election bs. As i've already posted, what the Dems are really running against in 2024 is the claims of election fraud and the insane baby-eating slander of the GOP.

I would be concerned with the competition. They could make up any story if your presence becomes inconvenient to them, and just being a farang means you have much less standing against such claims. Not just imm., but taxes and whatever sort of rules pertaining to the kind of things you'd be selling. Having five stalls means you are five times more visible. Just my two satang worth . . .

China truly is working on its world influence. https://eng.yidaiyilu.gov.cn/p/0T4ND13J.html And then there are the projects in Africa and South America. When Evo Morales was elected president of Bolivia within one week Beijing sent an airliner to fetch him to meet da boss. He was not inaugurated yet. I was in South America at the time, the story was covered all over SA media, including CNN en Espanol. I did not see it mentioned in media sources from outside the continent. I've long suspected the South China Sea would be the theatre for a war between the US and China. Even Obama, in a SOTU, briefly hinted at this.

Sounds like the Cuban Missile Crisis, the China version.

When these grifters suddenly showed up in Dec 2020 with all their goofy ideas I figured DT dangled some kind of bounty for keeping him in office, probably a pile of $$$. (As if he would actually pay.) I still think so. It brought out the bottom feeders like pillow guy, overstock guy, Powell et al. And there is still that matter of Powell making that phone call to the Pentagon, telling them to invade Germany or something like that. The only thing that comedy lacked was Peter Sellers.

No, Elvis lives in Reno, Nevada.

I didn't say he was.

A man dressing as a woman? Isn't that illegal in LOS? There is a day during Brazilian Carnival when men dress as women. The real drag queens get into it, but a lot of the straight guys do it up like in his pic. Along with a donation to the judicial retirement fund.

In SiliValley world (and probably other places) it's pretty common that when hired the new employee must sign a non-compete clause that addresses this directly, and covers a specific period of time after termination -- I've signed a few. I would think that in California enough of these things have turned up in court that they are commonplace and a precedent has emerged of the need for a signed agreement. On the other hand he might be able to drag the case to a conservative backwater in another state (the smiling African seems to be favoring Texas these days https://www.statesman.com/story/news/2023/03/13/elon-musk-city-bastrop-texas-near-tesla-spacex-boring-co/69999587007/) where justice is, um, impressed by wealth or political partisanship; you may have noticed the GOP is doing a spell of such things these days. I saw a piece of an interview with him in recent days, looks like maybe he's not doing too well. But don't underestimate what he is willing to spend on lawsuits, he's one of the richest guys on the planet and the way he blew $44 billion on a non-spectacular technology company shows just how capricious he can be. He can blow another $44B and still be very wealthy.

C'mon, don't play dumb, you all know it's flat. West of the Azores is nothing. At the edge is an Einsteinian void in which you will not age and will be falling for a longer time than can be recorded. This is what really happened to the Titanic. They got rid of Jimmy Hoffa's body by throwing it off the edge. [/sarcasm]

What happened to that young Republican guy who said he was invited to sex and drugs parties attended by GOP members of Congress? He did a lot of spouting off on the MAGA stuff, but once he said that they shut him down PDQ (pretty damn quick). Check the WH register for Republicans coming in on the day of discovery.

The Jesus Rule: on the third day either resurrect or toss. It is said that at one day old it has lost 50% of its nutrients. Is that true? The hell if I know.

Using marijuana may affect your ability to think and plan, study says Well yeah, but, umm, uh, I forgot what I was planning to say . . .

I tried to sign up, but it would not accept my gmail email address, kept asking for my work address. I don't have one. But all's well in the end, I've been avoiding the SM sites for years, no need to start in now.

Starts with "you pay now!"

The ex-wife said I should seriously seek professional help. I took her advice and went out into the night and picked up a pro. Had a hell of a time, best $40 I ever spent. Great advice, hun.

Who is the one lashing out in the OP?

This whole cocaine in the WH thing is looking pretty convenient, no?

After pouring through CCTV footage, the Secret Service found no evidence of cocaine use. But they did notice a strange phenomenon of people consuming salt through their noses.

These two are for driving on a scorching hot day, always brings to mind the standoff at the end of "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly." And if you don't mind it when things get ethnic:

Driving at night through a thick fog, Entwistle's bass will get you through
