I have been diabetic since I was 16. I suggest taking some cinnamon in the morning and night. You can look up its benefits for type 2 and pre-diabetes with a quick search. It lowers my blood sugar greatly and is proven effective in many studies . It really does work for me.

PM to look into extending tourist visas to 90 days
chrischronic replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Will this be met with reluctance or pushback from immigration? The visa extension service is lucrative, and I'm concerned that this might not be well-received. Additionally, it's a significant amount of money for the government to lose in terms of visa extension fees.- 155 replies

No reason to lie. That's the price your dispensaries and dealers are paying. Just thought I would share bulk prices so people know. The key is buying bulk, and a lot of growers are sitting on a lot of weed now, so wholesale prices are good. If you can get in or find a big grower who distributes to the dispensaries, you will find these prices.

Taco Bell opening new location in #Jomtien next week
chrischronic replied to redwood1's topic in Pattaya
The Thai taco Bells don't have beans. Anyone know why? -
Thai citizens are registered in Thailand via Google, and payment rates differ based on the country of residence. There was a recent article about the Tax department going after social media earners, which you can find with a quick Google search. They are urging those individuals to pay taxes in Thailand. Additionally, there are a few YouTube videos uploaded by lawyers and others, explaining the taxation rules for YouTubers in Thailand.

US Supreme Court strikes down student loan forgiveness plan

Oh ok you mean the threshold is to high. What do you think a better income number would be? -
US Supreme Court strikes down student loan forgiveness plan
chrischronic replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The bill literally says the opposite. If you mean it benifits high income people more. Borrowers are eligible for this relief if their individual income is less than $125,000 ($250,000 for married couples). No high-income individual or high-income household – in the top 5% of incomes – will benefit from this action. -
"control the widespread use of the drug in public and again outlaw its recreational use." I'm concerned about the idea of outlawing recreational use of the drug, especially if I had a shop. How would the business survive without recreational use? Would possessing and smoking it become punishable by law? Personally, I have a doctor's certificate obtained from Sawasdee Clinic when only THC oil was available, so I'm not worried for myself. However, if they outlaw recreational use, the shops will likely fade out.

Yeah for sure gotta grind for joints but grinding for pipes and bongs is popular here.

In my experience, throughout all my years of smoking in the USA and Canada, we would always smoke whole flowers. However, here in Thailand, the people I have interacted with grind it up. Whether it's a bong or a pipe, it's always ground up. Personally, I don't like it because I feel like a lot is wasted, especially in a bong where it can get sucked through into the water before it's burnt. In the US, we would always load the whole flower and savor the first hit of the greens. What do you all think, and do your peers in your country grind it up?

Thailand’s Election Results May Reverse Cannabis Policy
chrischronic replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Talked to Thai owner in Kao Sahn area after the election. Asked him if he was worried or if they gonna shut down change the law. He told me they won't close down shops in certain tourist areas with those areas safe for smoking and buying. He was super confident that he won't be affected in any way because of zoning. -
RIP Ubon Joe - ASEAN NOW visa expert
chrischronic replied to Rimmer's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Thank you so much Ubon Joe for all the years helping all of us! -
This actually works! Our shop in the south of Thailand had dogs using the alley in front of my door as a toilet. Every morning, they would come by and leave me a nasty surprise. However, after reading about the Chili technique online, I bought some chili powder and chili flakes (like the kind you put on pizza) and spread it on the ground in front of my door. Since then, I've never had a problem with the dogs, and I haven't seen them even stop to sniff there. It worked for me and is worth a try!

Rejected at PoiPet border
chrischronic replied to Kardashev's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yes the desk on the Thai side. I did make a mistake though as I have not been to Poipet in some time and I hear it's a bit different then the more quiet crossings. The other 2 border crossings Ban Pakard and Ban Laem as I had experience there. -
Rejected at PoiPet border
chrischronic replied to Kardashev's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
It's better to just pay the visa service fee at the desk. The 2000 to 3000 baht gives you a stamp on both sides with no questions asked. The guy walks you to both sides and its easy. Way better than getting stuck in Cambodia and spending more to get back. -
Marriage extension...Immigration Home Visit
chrischronic replied to wondra's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
How were you informed of visit? I just went through changing visa type in Bkk to marriage and last week just finished second round to extend for a year. Now under consideration for the second time in 3 months and no visit. -
I've been in this situation multiple times. All you have to do is call the resort and tell them immigration needs a tm30 confirmation or letter. The hotel will then email you the letter or proof of Tm30. It takes the hotel a few minutes to do this. You then just show the email to immigration officer.

Do any of you live in a high-rise building and smoke? Do you smoke in your room, bathroom, or balcony? Do you have any suggestions for controlling the odor when smoking inside? My building's got good ventilation, but I still catch a waft of cooking every now and then, and it's always a concern for me. I do my best to keep the smoke contained, but it's gone pretty fast. Maybe everyone's just <deleted> off not knowing where it's coming from.

I got covid two months ago... I got super dizzy , fatigue , runny stuffy nose, loss of smell. It was pretty bad like a flu but no throat or breathing problems. The fatigue has improved with excercise and in just the last three weeks has gone away. I took ginseng and coffee mixed wich seemed to help. I had some nausea and dizzy spells that would come and go but went away after 3 weeks negative. My smell is still not 100% but has greatly improved. I lost it for a while and it slowly is coming back daily.. I finally smelled one of my farts and a tear came to my eye. Long covid sucks and it took a while to feel better. I think running and excercise helped me greatly.

Please suggest a self defence for my age?
chrischronic replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
The best Martial art for your age would be Brazilian Jiu Jitsu BJJ. It is low Impact and does not require feets of strength. It is one of the few martialat arts that you actually have a chance of taking out someone bigger than you. This has been proven time and time again with BJJ on the streets and in the ring. The first thing you learn is usually a submission that you actually get to practice sparring with on your first day. -
Ban Pakkard Visa run all good
chrischronic replied to McGregor21's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Drove here yesterday Sun sep 18th and was super easy. US passport and on covid extensions since the start 2 years. Paid the 2700 at the desk after stamping out and the staff took care of the rest. They walked me to Cambodia got stamped by a friendly IO and then returned. Thai side was super easy. IO smiled at me and stamped the passport with no questions asked. Great easy border that takes care of you with the visa service available there.
