  1. IMHO the problem is that with most people, and include myself, it is very difficult to rationally talk about sexual relationships. I.e. would I agree if my gf would ask me if she could have sex with other guys? NO! But would I really care if she would do it somewhere far away and I would never know about it? Sometimes ignorance is a bliss.
  2. The US citizens vote for Trump, correct. And he should be their president. But that should have nothing to do with any legal cases. Only because someone will become president is no reason to ignore his crimes and other legal cases against him. But then, in your case, you seem to be not even able to acknowledge that there are lots of legal outstanding cases against him.
  3. Please provide a short summary. My AI refuses to do that because your text is too long.
  4. It's a banana republic. But then, I am sure that the people who voted for the criminal want it like that. I just wonder what all the other criminals think. Probably their crimes were not big enough to get the same treatement.
  5. Microsoft has a huge mouse. It is very ergonomic because it does not force your hand in a unnatural position. I used them for years (before I switched to above, previous post).
  6. Logitech Ergo - the have a couple of models. I use them since years and I really like them. Other options are here all lines up with criteria for you to choose. https://www.logitech.com/th-th/products/mice.html As far as I remember they cost something like 3000B, which is obviously expensive compared to other options. Personally, I think it's a good investment to spend 10B per day for a comfortable hassle-free mouse (and keyboard, etc.)
  7. Did you ask her if she read it and what she learned about men?
  8. But then, better they talk than go out and buy a weapon and shoot all those others. And somehow it is almost funny when some Trump supporters suddenly like the idea about peaceful transfer of power.
  9. Not really. I think in some countries we feel soon comfortable, in others not so much. If we feel comfortable, then we should obviously do some research before we possibly move there. Many years I made holiday in Thailand, and I liked it, and I thought about moving to Thailand. And then I checked about visa regulations, work opportunities and all that. I find it strange when some people go to other countries to work there, but didn't even check how they can legally do that. Some with visa regulations for retirement, etc.
  10. Just visit some other countries for a few days or weeks and look how you feel. I.e. I visited a few neighboring countries. I kind of like it in Phnom Phen. Yangon was also not too bad a couple of years ago. I don't think I would like to live in Malaysia. Just try!
  11. If you fall in love with a Thai woman, then spend time with her. And some more time with her. You don't have to marry her. And try to open your eyes and look at reality and not your dream.
  12. Those protests should happen all the time all over the world - obviously preferred peacefully. Too many politicians are scared to speak out against the genocide in Gaza - because they fear the Israeli/Jewish lobbies. Jews were killed by the Nazis, and that was very bad. But that doesn't give Israel the right to do whatever they want. And obviously what they do only works because the USA supports them without restrictions. It's a sad world where some countries/politicians can do whatever they want, and for others there are right away big punishments if they only think about doing certain things. I.e. Isreal has nuclear weapons, and nobody cares. Iran maybe wants them and that is a huge issue.
  13. What do you do when you see Israelis? What did you say to Americans when they invaded Iraq, Afghanistan and other countries?
  14. This is the opinion of a marketing expert:
  15. That is certainly one of the options. It would be an interesting study if what people expected in Thailand actually happened or how their motivation and life changed. If you would have told me in my first month of Thailand that I would end up with the same gf for more than a decade and at the same time f@#$# hundreds of other girls, I guess I would have said that would never happen. And then reality happened...
  16. Whatever the motivation was, it might change. I know guys who wanted to find a wife. And then they decided that f@##$ around is what they like. And others just want to have fun and no attachment. And then they meet this lovely girl. She is different, she is the one. Whatever the plan is does not really matter when reality hits.
  17. Thanks for all your comments. Sure, there is no "this will happen". But it's interesting to read what happened to others. And about the general idea to have some fun: IMHO we only live once, and we can't perform forever. Some guys just accept that when they are married that's it. Others still have (a lot of) sex outside marriage. I wouldn't want to be old and think about how much fun I could have had when I was young. And with him it's the same. Enjoy life as long as you can. And telling her? IMHO there are very few women who want to talk about that and who would accept a situation like that. From what I see the best a guy can expect is that she does not ask and does not want to know. If he would ask and she would say no, then he can't pretend she does not care. So not asking is the preferred version from many gays and I guess the somehow preferred version for many women.
  18. I guess I am not the only one who wants a summary. Good luck we have AI: Recess appointments allow the U.S. President to fill federal vacancies when the Senate is not in session, as outlined in Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution. This provision was created to ensure government continuity during lengthy congressional absences in the 18th century.While many presidents have used this power, it has typically been for lower-level positions. Congress can disrupt recess appointments by holding "pro forma" sessions. Recent discussions suggest that President-elect Donald Trump might exploit this mechanism to appoint controversial figures without Senate confirmation shortly after his inauguration, potentially extending their terms until 2027.Critics warn that such actions could undermine the checks and balances intended by the Founding Fathers, who designed the system to prevent any single branch of government from wielding excessive power. https://www.perplexity.ai/
  19. One day, it had to happen. But not too long ago people thought it would take 500 years...
  20. I have a friend who is married to his Thai Chinese wife. She has a well-paid office job, is nice and IMHO boring. He has an even better paid job. Mostly they are happy together. Married over 10 years. I wouldn't call it the big love, but comfortable living together, no kids. He is over 50, she a little under 50. He is playing with the girls since forever. He never told her. But she should know that maybe he is not only drinking beers with his buddies on Friday night. He is discreet and he avoids beginner mistakes. But there is no perfect way to keep secrets forever. Maybe one day she finds out. And then? How likely is it that she will divorce him and demand money (because he makes a lot more money than her)? Will she give him first an ultimatum that he should never do it again? What are other possible consequences? She is not a bar girl from up country, so I guess the duck feeding process won't happen. Do you have any experience with a situation like that? What happened with you or a friend in such a situation? For the record. I talk about my friend and not myself. My long-term gf is an ex-bargirl. I am sure she would react differently.
  21. Maybe try something else than only FOX or Breitbart or whatever you inhale.
  22. In a way I understand your point. But he was officially convicted. So, IMHO, this brings up two options: a) He will be punished like any other criminal b) The conviction has to be overruled by a higher court or something like that. c) That he was convicted but then somehow nothing happens is not a viable option in a decent judicial system.
  23. Was he sentenced for the riot on Jan 6? Was he sentenced for "find me some votes"? There are lots of cases which should have been obvious convictions.
  24. If you read the news and you don't know what I am talking about, then unfortunately I can't help you.
