Ok. And can everybody buy at those auctions? Good prices?

If it would be legal then it could be sold in high quality. One of the problems with illegal drugs is that on the supply chain many people mix it with many other substances, some of them are poisonous. The end customers buy something is some kind of quality mixed with something else. No specifics. It seems that is a big part of the health problems of drugs. If people would use poor cocaine, then that problem would not exist. And if it wasn't illegal then it would not have huge profit margins for criminals. And addicts wouldn't commit lot of crimes to make money to buy the drugs. Is it a good solution to legalize these drugs? No. But listening to experts, like senior police, legalizing would probably be the best option.

Is that when you are on your knees and tell him: Deeper! I need it! The excitement...

If you like Lower Sukhumvit, then why don't you move to that area? I live in that area since almost 30 years, and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. I am more than 90% of my time in walking distance to my condominium. Sometimes I actually walk, more often I ride motorcycle because I am lazy. I have lots of restaurants, bars and shops right next to me. Look i.e. at Soi 8. At one end you have nightlife and restaurants. A little further into the soi it's quiet. Some time ago I had a friend who worked in Bang Khae and liked to go out in Soi Cowboy and surrounding. First, he lived near his work in a nice house in a quiet area. And most nights he drove with his car to Soi Cowboy and then later, more or less drunk, back. Then he rented an apartment in Soi 16 walking distance to Soi Cowboy. He had to drive to work every day. But he liked that a lot more than the previous arrangement. IMHO live where you want to be. Why drive when you can walk a short distance?

Just google "conservative values" and then compare this with Trump. Or just listen to almost all conservatives in the GOP in the 2016 primaries and what they said about Trump at that time. Trump didn't really change. Principles of conservatism didn't change. Greedy spineless GOP politicians changed so that they can stay on the trough.

I doubt that people with conservative values like Trump. Ask conservatives if they want a convicted criminal to be their president? Ask conservatives if they want to live with under the rule of law with checks and balances. The list goes on and on. Brain washed MAGA idiots love Trump. And some greedy people support Trump.

Then why would you want to live there? Sukhumvit Soi 24 is for sure more expensive than many other areas in Bangkok - for a reason. Obviously, there is also something to discover in Sathorn and many other areas. But there is a reason why many farangs live in Sukhumvit. Here is a lot of what many of us want.

Imagine you would live in Gaza, with decades of occupation and suppression from Israel. Would you just sit back and accept that they stole your land? And would you accept to be a prisoner without rights for the rest of your life? Maybe you would accept that. Or more likely you wouldn't accept it but somehow you think they should accept it. I understand that most Palestinians hate their occupier. Desperate people do desperate things.

You got that wrong. Hamas killed about 1,000 people on that day. Israel killed over 45,000 people after that day including over 17,000 children. To quote you, that was "the most brutal, sadistic, barbaric, and savage act of terrorism in modern history".

What Hamas did on the 7th October 2023 was obviously wrong. And what Israel did for decades before that date was also often wrong. Does one wrong make another wrong right? No. The whole mess exists because Palestinians were removed from their land to establish Israel. Whoever had that idea and thought they will all live happily ever after was stupid or delusional. A fights B. B fights back. And then A fights back, and then B again. But somehow when A fights then some people thing that is ok. But when B fights that is not ok. I think both should stop fighting. And if A does not stop, then don't be surprised that B also doesn't stop.

So it seems for Palestinians to say “From the river to the sea” is a crime. If Trump says it in slightly different words, then it's ok?

Read and learn: https://www.perplexity.ai/search/is-the-following-correct-israe-xwhQqEGjR0yNoNw11hWa_w#0 Yes, the statement "Israel is occupying Palestinian land" is correct. Here's a breakdown: * **Historical Context:** Israel has occupied the Palestinian territories, which include the West Bank (including East Jerusalem) and the Gaza Strip, since the Six-Day War in 1967[1][6][7]. These territories were previously under the control of Egypt and Jordan[1][7]. * **International Views:** The International Court of Justice (ICJ), the UN General Assembly, and the UN Security Council all consider Israel to be the occupying power in these territories[1]. The ICJ has stated that Israel's occupation is illegal and that Israel must end its presence "as rapidly as possible"[1][5]. * **Gaza Strip:** While Israel withdrew its forces from the Gaza Strip in 2005, it still maintains control over the territory's borders, airspace, and territorial waters[1][7]. The UN and various human rights organizations continue to consider Israel as the occupying power[1]. * **"Disputed Territories"**: While successive Israeli governments have referred to the West Bank as "disputed territories," the international community largely considers them occupied[1]. * **Settlements:** Israel has been constructing and expanding settlements on occupied Palestinian land, which is a violation of international law and a driving force behind human rights violations[3]. In July 2024, the ICJ issued an advisory opinion stating that Israel's continued presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) is unlawful, and that Israel must end its presence as quickly as possible and cease all settlement activities[5]. The UN General Assembly has also adopted a resolution demanding that Israel end its occupation within 12 months[5].

I think the important part is have a story ready for the unlikely case that someone checks you. If you have a work permit for A and not for B then officially only work for A, never for B. If you are a shareholder for B then I guess you should be allowed to check the accounting details from B. Just make sure you have them somewhere nearby in case someone ask you what you are doing.

Yes, you can walk or take a motorcycle, those are the options which make sense. Using a car in that area is no fun. I think anywhere in Bangkok it depends a lot on your personal taste, how much money you are willing to pay, if you like lots of international restaurants and shopping centers with English speaking employees, etc. If you like that area, then live there. If you are for 6 months or more in Bangkok, then you have enough time to explore also other areas and find out what you like and don't like. Bangkok Pat has many videos about different areas in Bangkok. Maybe watch some of them.
