California doctor claims spicy Thai dish left her with chemical burns
impulse replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
I think that's a formality to file the lawsuit. It's "at least $35K". If it's California and she gets a leftist jury, the settlement may run into the $billions. -
Why Kamala Harris was always destined to lose

That's not her job. Blame the idiots whose job it was to put forward a viable candidate. Otherwise, they get to keep on grifting. -
Why Kamala Harris was always destined to lose
impulse replied to NickyLouie's topic in Political Soapbox
I hear plywood sales have gone through the roof, prepping for the mostly peaceful riots and looting that will be even worse and last longer than when Hillary took the L. Harris ticks 2 of the boxes. HRC only ticked one. -

Meta’s Suspension of Jet-Tracking Accounts Sparks Free Speech Debate
impulse replied to Social Media's topic in World News
They do have that right. But then they need to be like the rest of us and take responsibility for their decisions. Which means they lose their immunity, like the rest of us. Like Alex Jones, like Guiliani, like everyone else that's being sued (and prosecuted) for what they choose to say. Unless they want to be neutral conduits for what their users post. But they're not. -

Another genius move, like eating cats. Now everyone is discussing an issue that the MSM wouldn't cover before. -
Meta’s Suspension of Jet-Tracking Accounts Sparks Free Speech Debate
impulse replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The problem, of course, is that the social media companies have immunity under Section 230 because they, in theory, are only a conduit for other people's speech. If they're putting their thumb on the conversation, that immunity should be rescinded. -

Sharp Rise in Infant Mortality Linked to Abortion Bans Following Dobbs

I can't help but wonder if there's some other correlation, aside from the law. But we're not allowed to mention it... -
Eric Adams spilled the beans when he asked for $36,000 a year in federal money to care for each of NYC's migrants. Of course, he didn't say it that way. He asked for $12 billion to care for the 110,000 NYC newcomers for 3 years. Too bad for the Dems, everyone with a smartphone has a calculator. That's why he's being prosecuted... Before that, he was a Dem hero. Of course deporting millions of illegals will be expensive. But nowhere near as expensive as caring for the huge percentage of them that have no skills, no education, and no meaningful prospects, except taking jobs and resources away from the most vulnerable of US citizens.

Expert Weighs in on Kamala Harris's Book: Sloppy, Not Malicious

If Trump did the same, he'd either be getting sued or prosecuted. She'll skate by because she's too incompetent to know that what she did was wrong. Sound familiar? -

Who said anything about polling? I was reacting to your claim that you take a balanced approach... I blew corn flakes out my nostrils. -

impulse replied to theblether's topic in Political Soapbox
He got cancelled when he came out in favor of Trump. His speaking engagements and his book deals dried up. He 'splains it in the book. That's probably why he felt free to do his "It's not safe to hang out with angry black mobs" discussion. He had nothing to lose. -

I was there when he was big and it was pants even then. Maybe it's a conditioned response thing, like Pavlov ringing the bell. I get a stiffy when I remember the way Nancy would start dancing when Donovan came on. That hippie chick could dance. (Her name was Nan, but I don't want anyone to think she was Thai. Chicago girl) -
Americans say goodbye to more brands - Surprising Closures
impulse replied to CharlieH's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
On the street where the rent is low and the shopkeepers live above their store, I can see it as a great alternative to a 300 baht a day job. But I can't imagine the shopping mall rent is cheap. (Unless they offer a low "trial rate") Across from my normal Chinatown hotel is a lady in a shop who sits there all day and probably sells less than $50 worth of stuff. But that may still be a better than 300 baht a day digging ditches. And her apartment is above the shop. I'm curious what she pays in total rent, if she doesn't own the property outright. The other bonus from sitting in her shop is that she's not out spending money out of boredom, and she gets to interact with a lot of her friends. -

Donovan was one of those "you had to be there" artists. His stuff hasn't aged well. -

Just finished listening to Scott Adams's "Win Bigly" that explains a lot of that... (The Dilbert guy) He's got a lot of insights, having been mostly a liberal and lived on both coasts. He explains a lot of the infuriating stuff Trump has done in the context of West Coast norms vs NYC norms. To be clear, I didn't take 10+/- hours out of my day. I listened to it while I was doing other things. Over a few days. Worth reading, because you can probably skim it in 1-2 hours. Takes a lot longer as an audio. -
Wait until the other shoe drops and they add all the unemployed "newcomers" to the numbers in the available labor pool. The number of full time jobs has gone up 2 million or so above pre-Covid, while the number of illegals has gone up by 10+ million. Yet, unemployment numbers (and your labor participation rates) don't reflect that. Because they're not being counted as "available labor". Yet. They're waiting until after the election (and probably after Trump's inauguration) to add them to the labor pool, resulting in much higher unemployment and much lower labor participation numbers. That they can then blame on Trump.
