  1. I'm pretty sure it was Victory Monument BTS. Checked Bing maps and there are a wad of hospitals and a nursing school right there, so it would make sense. I'd get on Google streetview and confirm it for you, but I'm in China and Google's blocked here. In any case, it's handy information and worth a look in case you need any eclectic medical supplies in the future. But it is a lot of walking because there's lots to look at. You may want to get on Google streetview and check the area out virtually before you head over on the BTS. Look for shops with wheelchairs and oxygen bottles in the windows.
  2. You may want to specify what city and area you're in because usually, small shops around hospitals carry machines like that. There are entire medical store neighborhoods around some of the major hospitals in Bangkok and I imagine it's similar in other cities. Nebulizers, oxygen concentrators, wheelchairs, oxygen tanks... Just about anything you may need for care at home. Edit: There was one neighborhood like that I used to go to at one of the BTS stops. I wanna say it was around Victory Monument, but my brain leaks and that may not be correct. Hopefully, that'll jog somebody's memory and they'll chime in with an answer. Amazing selection, scattered over dozens of stores. Durables and expendables you'll never find in a Boots or Fascino. (though I'm a fan of both) If you don't find one tonight, I'd suggest getting on Lazada and searching nebulizer. It'll take a few days to get in as long as you specify local delivery and not overseas.
  3. I found that about half the outlets in Thai hotels don't accept the 3 pin plugs. Even fewer accept the round pins, as opposed to the 3 flat pin style. Most outlet's I've encountered in hotels have a 2 flat pin and a 3 flat pin receptacle on one plate. Not that I suspect the OP will be using his drill in hotels, just that his home outlets may be similar. If it were me, I'd keep using the adapter. The skill level and tools required to cut it off and replace it with a 2 blade plug are pretty easy. But why risk it?
  4. Is that from the same CDC whose new director is acknowledging they have lost the public's trust, yet doesn't specifically admit to what they've done to lose the trust. That she wants to regain... Because they've lost it. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/09/16/cdc-director-public-trust-00116348
  5. And they know the new bivarient vaccine will be safe and effective, how? Never mind the possibility of long term effects. Like mine... Also just saw that the mRNA makes it into breast milk. As I recall, that just couldn't happen... Because it stays in your arm. Oops. Got that one wrong, too.
  6. I'm still confused. If a vaccinated person can still get Covid and pass it on, isn't it just as likely she'd catch it from someone who has been vaxxed? I mean, given that the majority of the people she's likely to run into have been vaxxed... As someone who, 2.75 years later, is still suffering a life changing vaccine injury, I'm curious. Not that I plan to get the new vax. That would just be stupid, given what happened the last time. They'd have to hold a gun to my head to make me.
  7. Yeah, but he and Jordan Peterson are doing a great job of trolling Gavin Newsom, since Newsom expressed fear that his son was getting caught up in their micro-cult: We're coming for your children@GavinNewsom We plan to turn Your boys Into men And girls Into women Within the dark Pathways Of our micro cult And that's why they both get paid big bucks... Take them too seriously and literally, or pontificate too deeply their meaning at your own risk. I just enjoy listening. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/09/im-really-worried-about-these-micro-cults-gavin/ https://dailycaller.com/2023/09/22/gavin-newsom-andrew-tate-joe-rogan-jordan-peterson-ai/
  8. In your story, is Granny going to the bars unvaccinated? If vaccinations are effective, why would Granny have to worry about hanging out in the bars if she was vaccinated? And if she is unvaccinated, perhaps she should stay home. I'm confused...
  9. The Supreme Court just came out with a ruling that selecting based on race is illegal. Biden specifically selected her on race and gender. That's not only unconstitutional. It's un-American. If I put out a job ad specifying only black women can apply, I'd be prosecuted. And rightly so.
  10. What I love about Rogan is that he asks a question, then listens. He's one of the very few that realize that he invited his guests (and people tune in) to hear what they have to say, and not listen to himself talk.
  11. Oh, but he did. Pontificate all you want. But Putin behaved when Trump was at the helm. Now (and under Obama), he smells weakness.
  12. Yup. It takes months to mobilize. And Putin invaded 13 months after Biden took the reins. Plenty of time after Trump left. Are you sure you're qualified to engage in a debate about quality of life in a country that you've never set foot in?
  13. You mean the ones that had gub'ment issued haircuts and earbuds and all wore the same khaki pants? Never would have happened had the DOJ cracked down during the summer of love and mostly peaceful city burnings. Dems even raised money to bail out the looters and burners. Not hard to imagine that emboldened bad behavior on Jan6. Don't you think it's strange that a grandmother who simply walked through a door held open by a cop got more prison time than someone who burned down a city block during the summer of love? Or that cops who restrained a drug addled criminal (Floyd) while he died with a lethal dose of fentanyl in him got sent to prison, while a capital police officer who shot an unarmed woman (Babbitt) wasn't even investigated? Don't even get me started on how Pelosi made Jan6 happen, deliberately. By refusing Trump's offer of Nat'l Guard protection. Because for her cause, Jan6 had to happen.
  14. I'm not going to guess at motives or schedules. I'm just pointing out that Putin behaved pretty reasonably under Trump. Full stop. So, no risk of WW3 while Trump was at the helm. That alone makes his tenure better for the entire world than Obama's or Biden's.
  15. Not the ones I knew. But they are anti-crime. Which seems to be construed as racist by lefties. I'm against criminals, so I must be against black people, (obviously because black people are criminals). And that, itself is racist. But lefties don't see it that way.
  16. But he didn't do it when Trump was at the helm. Just Obama and ObamaJr Biden. And that's what this thread is about... Was the USA better off under Trump? No risk of WW3 under Trump. That alone answers the OP question.
  17. But that's what lefties do. They scream racism every time they disagree with someone. Just wanted you to feel at home. You still haven't answered my question about the last time you actually met a MAGA person or darkened the shore of the USA. Or are you relying on the MSM for your characterization of MAGA?
  18. That explains the reasonable gas prices. How about beef prices, and why did Putin take Crimea under Obama and the Donbas under Biden, but crickets under Trump? What's going to take decades to recover from is 8 million (and counting) illegal border crossers and the prospect of WW3.
  19. The polite term is "lefties". You'll never hear or read me referring to them in that derogatory way. You racist...
  20. And yet, there they were. Pickups with Trump flags delivering groceries, hauling neighbors to doctor appointments, fixing broken pipes... Corolla drivers with Biden stickers? They stayed on the porch and thanked the nice MAGA guys. BTW, when was the last time you met a guy (or gal) in a MAGA hat? Or do you just believe what the MSM says about them?
  21. Nope. When there's 2' of salt water over the roads, the only viable option if you want to help your neighbor is a redneck pick up truck. EV's just catch fire in salt water.
  22. I live in a neighborhood in Texas surrounded by guys in MAGA hats and Trump flags in their yards. They're the guys who were out helping their neighbors that summer when we had 4 tropical storms blow through and flood the whole neighborhood 4 times in a summer. They're the guys cooking brisket, sausage and fish at the church barbeque. They're the guys who organize the neighborhood holiday golf cart parades and the Easter egg hunt for the kids. They're the guys offering the elderly shut-ins rides to go shopping and to get their jabs. So don't pretend to lecture me about the behavior of MAGA people. I live with them. It's especially rich coming from a crowd here, 75% of whom haven't even been to the States since MAGA came into being.
  23. I made my own sausages living in Thailand and now in China. At first, I stuffed them into casings, but eventually decided to forgo the casings and just cook them as paddies. Cumberland and Italian. Looked up the recipes on the interweb and went to an amazing spice shop in the little alley next to Wat Mangkon (sp?) MRT station in Chinatown. Selected the pork to be ground up (in the shop) by fat content. For Italian, a little bit of red wine... Much better than anything I found pre-made, and no preservatives or concern that they may not be fresh, as occasionally happens with frozen food in Thailand that's been re-frozen too many times.
  24. Is that the same intelligence community that pinkie swore promised that the laptop was a Russian concoction?
