Russell Brand and why the allegations took so long to surface
impulse replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I don't worry about it because I'll never be rich enough to make it worth blackmail or a lawsuit, or influential enough that my enemies will seek out women from my past and pay them to destroy me. Russell Brand and Johnny Depp... They need to worry. So do Rogan, Tate, and a bunch of other guys making waves. -
It's in the Pattaya section... I often think the same thing when I click on a link from off to the right. But I've come close to embarrassing myself enough that I now check to see which section it's posted in.

As a foreigner, are you used to the smell of fish sauce?
impulse replied to DudleySquat's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Which one is it that gives you liver flukes and liver cancer? 'Cause I'd like to avoid those. I'm actually afraid to eat some great looking/smelling street food because I can't tell if they use a commercial bottled sauce (safe, I figure) or their homemade secret formula (dodgy?) -
Please post back and let us know how it works out, for future reference.

She didn't ignore the problem. It's going swimmingly. She's let in 8,000,000 future blue voters and a couple of dozen future red voters. 20+/- states have already decided to allow illegals to have a driver's license. (While they claim it's not voter ID, I have my suspicions) Another year or so of unbridled invasion, and if they direct those midnight flights in the right direction (swing states) we'll never have to worry about a Republican president ever again. Also, Santa Ana, CA (among other cities, towns and counties) is pushing to allow them to vote in local elections. Not to mention 8,000,000 low wage workers for her donors... Can't let those native workers think they can demand a living wage and reasonable bennies... No, she's been the perfect Border Czar. Disaster for most Americans, especially those on the lower end of the skills market who will now have to compete with workers who have never made more than $10 a day in their lives. But great for the Dem Machine and their donors.

Here's another one I don't own, but looks promising: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/xl4015-5a-by-zerobike-i166183335-s203872299.html? Or go to YouTube and look for videos on driving LED's. They may steer you toward PWM controllers, which have become extremely affordable. Here's one that ships from "overseas" I'm sure you could buy one shipped from Thailand. Or go down to Ban Mo electronics market if you're near Bangkok Chinatown. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/pwm-dimming-controller-for-led-lights-i4707402494.html?

Full disclosure, I don't own one of these. And I'd recommend buying the 10A model if you want to power 5A LED's just for a safety factor (and the 10A model is out of stock). But it may provide a place to start. Variable voltage... https://www.lazada.co.th/products/adapter-ac-to-dc-ac-100-240v-dc-3-24v-dc9-24v-dc3-12v-1a-2a-3a-5a-10a-us-plug-i4355067870-s17356178785.html?

You can't say with a straight face that the police reduce crime here. I guess a lot of guys didn't get the irony when I chose 2 of the most oft maligned uses of tax money... Cops and sidewalks. But to answer your question, if there were no cops, no justice system, no courts and no prisons, Thailand would be a quagmire and unlivable. All of those require tax money. And we live under their benefit, Thai or foreigner, whether we pay taxes or not. And I'm not talking about VAT. Even if we "don't get anything for free" (the claim I was responding to), we still get the benefits of a lot of tax spending, just in tolerable living conditions.

Thai health minister backs cannabis ban, citing surge in teen usage
impulse replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Be ethical and compare like for like..... why does one have to be puking at all? Only one would be a scofflaw! Just conjuring up fond memories of my college days when Mai Tai parties were the rage. Inevitably, people would drink too much (myself included) and the "red tide" would roll in. The kampus keystones would turn a blind eye to all the students puking in the front yard, but if they caught even a sniff of skunkweed, they'd search you and your car. If they found even one seed, they'd arrest you. I never thought that was fair, much less good policy. Though my drug of choice was alcohol. -
Evidence of DNA Contamination in Pfizer Vaccine
impulse replied to Red Phoenix's topic in COVID-19 Coronavirus
Pfizer, and 2.53 years and counting. When asked by friends, I have to admit that I don't know whether the symptoms are better, or I'm just getting used to feeling like crap as my new normal. My own feeling is the latter. I can now climb a ladder, which I couldn't do for months and months because my balance was shot. But I don't risk it above changing a ceiling light bulb. No more trimming back the palm trees on the island. Left side of my face is still numb. Some days limited to by my eyes, some days the entire side. -
Thai health minister backs cannabis ban, citing surge in teen usage
impulse replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I stand corrected. I've never seen it happen but I have no reason to doubt your anecdotes about weed driven violence. I wonder if it was pure weed, or fortified with something else? -

Ever see the interview with Joe Rogan and the most elite, richest guy in the world? They needed a fan to keep the smoke away from the camera. And Rogan's no cheap Charlie. I think Rumble paid him $100 million... -
Evidence of DNA Contamination in Pfizer Vaccine
impulse replied to Red Phoenix's topic in COVID-19 Coronavirus
When it was first disclosed that the mRNA doesn't stay local, there was some discussion that the technician doing the injection should aspirate to make sure they didn't hit a vein. I don't recall that happening when I had my 2 Pfizers. (We were queued up out the door and they were doing them fast). Does anyone know if that discussion went anywhere, or was it a red herring? -
Thai health minister backs cannabis ban, citing surge in teen usage
impulse replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It would be interesting to see an analysis of the aggregate problems of alcohol abuse plus weed abuse. I'm sure more people are abusing weed now that it's widely available, but is that in addition to those who abused alcohol, or did weed displace some of the alcohol? Are there more (DUI + weed) driving violations than before or fewer? Is there more (alcohol + weed) fueled violence than before, or less. I neither drink, nor do weed, so I don't have a dog in the fight. But I've never seen a stoner attack someone on the street, while I've seen a lot of drunks do it. Edit: And I hate the idea of someone going to jail for lighting up a doob, while the guy next to him puking up his Mai Tai gets a free pass.- 169 replies

Evidence of DNA Contamination in Pfizer Vaccine
impulse replied to Red Phoenix's topic in COVID-19 Coronavirus
Oops. You got me there. I had my 2nd dose 2.53 years ago, not 2.75. My bad... 2 days later, half of my face went numb, I lost my sense of balance and my energy level went to garbage. Remains that way to this day. So I won't be taking a 3rd dose, thank you very much. -

I thought they told us that mRNA never left your arm. -
Looking to buy a Compressor Nebulizer fast..
impulse replied to DonnaDwyer's topic in Health and Medicine
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. -
Looking to buy a Compressor Nebulizer fast..
impulse replied to DonnaDwyer's topic in Health and Medicine
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. -
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?

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 -
Evidence of DNA Contamination in Pfizer Vaccine
impulse replied to Red Phoenix's topic in COVID-19 Coronavirus
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. -

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. -
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/
