  1. You mean they should censor misinformation like "smoking causes cancer"? Because for decades, that was contrary to the (bought and paid for) "science".
  2. Asked and answered: Google maps said they're open (I've been let down by Maps before...) I went up to Mixt Chatuchak and they were open. As a bonus, they were much less crowded without the bleedover from the weekend market. Sad for the vendors. Great for me. Found a nice camera at a decent price, but they didn't have a battery for it so I couldn't test it. Walked away slightly disappointed. They had literally hundreds of other cameras, but I had a specific type and specification in mind (though was open to several brands). Camera store is on the 2nd floor and well worth a visit if you're already at Chatuchak. No new cameras, but gobs of used ones, and accessories.
  3. If you believe that, you obviously didn't read all the pages. You missed the part about doing diddly squat until the numbers go to 5000 a day. Then, they'd think about shutting it down. That's 1.8 million a year, normalized and codified. You also missed the part about HR.2 which passed the Repub controlled House last year, but the Dem controlled senate won't even take it up. https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4390204-5-things-to-know-about-border-bill-hr2-gop-shutdown-threats/
  4. Seems like you shouldn't need your entire budget if you're only going after the crimes by the right. Maybe 1/3 would be appropriate, because conservatives voters aren't committing more than 1/3 of the crimes. That's from the FBI stats back when we could trust them. But they didn't fit the narrative, so they changed the way they count crimes. And now we can't even trust the FBI crime stats. Yet another reason to cut the budget, and put that money toward an impartial statistics keeper.
  5. Who in the hell leases condoms?
  6. Sorry for the noob question, but I don't want to make the slog and find out they're closed on Thursdays. I mean JJ market, and the other indoor malls around the Weekend Market. I want to have a look at some of the 2nd hand camera shops.
  7. Speaking of trolling, I hear the Biden Obama/Newsom collector sets come with a tee shirt, a ballcap, a Bic pen, a USB chip and instructions.
  8. I don't know who he'll choose but whoever it is, it can't be any worse than Kamala. Unless, of course, he wants to make sure he'll never be impeached. For that, Kamala can't be beat.
  9. I was 99% sure, but I looked it up anyway. That's how I found out that the nightclub incident was just a small incident in a string of misconduct. Some of the stories about how she treated people as a judge are appalling. She needs to go to jail, not just step down.
  10. Is that the same science that proved for decades that smoking is not harmful?
  11. It wasn't a DEI hire. It was a DEI election. She is under investigation for at least 50 counts of misconduct. Not surprisingly, she pulls the race card and blames the cops, though she was in hot water long before the nightclub incident. BTW, not surprising she's a Dem. https://www.foxnews.com/video/6355736821112 https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/panel-douglas-judge-guilty-of-systemic-incompetence
  12. If only it were that simple. I suspect Trump got a bump in the polls when he suggested he may pardon Assange. Team Biden immediately decided to take that arrow out of Trump's quiver. I suspect he'd still be fighting extradition if it wasn't an election year. And I'm pretty sure he'll survive through election day, but I'm not too keen on his long term odds of dying from old age. I hope he has a solid steel deadman switch.
  13. Take me out back and put me out of my misery if i ever get petty enough to call for someone to be deported for a WP violation. The guy didn't hurt me one iota. I doubt he hurt anyone posting here. If he was kicking old ladies, breaking into houses, or making babies cry, sure. But not for cutting hair.
  14. I don't like to go there unless it's urgent. I'm just not comfortable asking for favors. Even in the USA, but especially in Asia where favors often come with an obligation.
  15. Of course I did. There's hundreds of factories, and I only visited a few.
  16. Thanks for that, but I'm only in town a few days a month so delivery is an issue. I may order one for my July trip and have it delivered to my old apartment. They held a Lazada order for me a few months ago when something went wrong and it didn't go to my hotel. I can't seem to change the account delivery address.
  17. I looked. All the factories in my area are slammed with urgent orders for Obama/Newsom hats and tees.
  18. They employ him. He gets 10%.
  19. Won't they be disappointed if they find out it's just a movie prop?
  20. Title says it all... Tried MBK, Chatuchuk and Chinatown. No luv...
  21. https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/late-term-abortion-laws-by-state
  22. Isn't that kind of like Texas reporting an increase in deaths over 100 years old, and it's because more people are living that long?
  23. The topic is whether one class of human beings has the right to life. Which makes slavery a direct analogy, where "science" of the period said negros were inferior and the laws of the day did not afford them protections from abuse and being killed if they became inconvenient. Sound familiar? Because that's exactly how unborn infants are being treated. In some locations, even fully viable children who just haven't been born yet.
  24. A little more info. https://aviationsourcenews.com/emergency/malaysia-airlines-flight-kuala-lumpur-bangkok-declares-emergency/
  25. I appreciate the heads up, but are they jokes? Last month, Yahoo News reported CIA officials had drawn up options for former U.S. President Donald Trump's administration for dealing with Assange while he was holed up in the Ecuadorean embassy in London, including assassinating or kidnapping him. https://www.reuters.com/world/allegation-cia-murder-plot-is-game-changer-assange-extradition-hearing-fiancee-2021-10-25/ Election year politics may have seen him released. But that doesn't mean he is safe.
