Really ? I must be living in a different Thailand 😱

Broke yes in a military sense having sent all they had to Ukraine and broke yes in the fact they can not replenish their armaments in a time frame that would "save" Ukraine and broke as in they have to use very expensive energy and broke as in they don't have the soldiers in boots to take on Russia even if they want to...nothing to do with interest rates !!!

What have interest rates to do with military weapons stock piles and the ability to replenish them ?

It's not really so much that they are too cowardly its more that they have already sent Ukraine everything they had and are now broke + record low actual soldiers in boots that could go fight the "dastardly" Russians even if they wanted to.

I think he was recently cleared of the charges ?

for those confused..its well how to explain ??

You want to believe it was not a lab leak, You also want to believe that there is no other intelligent life in the entire vastness of the universe ?

It would seem so however it also seems the left hand and right hand are still not quite in sync.

Why are we still giving money to an agency that "lost" all the technology to send a human being to the moon ?

As a small side note I also did not get a stamp upon exit this seemed to cause a bit of confusion to the immigration officer when I submitted my application to extend Non-O marriage..they also wanted me to update TM30 even though I was returning to the exact same residence..when I tried to update TM30 at the desk 20 meters away there was nothing to update as I was returning to the same place I was already registered at !!! anyway they did eventually accept my application to stay for another year...just try not to loose the plot..woosaa woosaa.

Yes that is why I did not do it on my return..one Immigration officer seemed to think I should re do it but the other one 20 meters away had a different idea 555 😋

I thought it was a lab leak from very early on, the totally deranged response by worldwide governments ( Sweden being a notable exception though there were others) only reinforces my view that they also thought it was an engineered bio weapon escaped from the lab ! why else would they throw out their very own "pandemic play book" and do the total opposite ? resulting in totalitarian censorship of any dissenting opinions,shaming, coercion, de banking and mandatary adoption of a "novel treatment" ohh and don't forget no way to sue the makers of "novel treatments" for injuries caused by their "product" that alone is a huge red flag !!!

Yesterday I went to renew mine at the Chonburi/Jomtien office and there was a bit of a "ding dong" about the TM30, as I had left the country in November and came back in January to the exact same residence the I/O perusing the visa extension seemed to think I should report again but when going to the "report residence desk" with I/O's hand written note they did not issue a new bit of paper which kind of flummoxed the original I/O when we returned,she faffed around for a bit but excepted the application... asking about if I left the country through the automatic departure gates for the life of me can't remember !!! ( old age) Think I must have as there is no departure stamp in my passport ? And also they did not hand out TM6 on the plane on arrival as of olden days..I know there is talk about a new E-arival card but it hasn’t materialised yet. I was under the impression that if you returned to original abode (with no other hotel stays in between) then there is no need to report TM30 again but T.I.T Also in many years past I have never filled TM30 and there was no problem extending my visa not even a mention of it until 2024 when it was suddenly needed to request "certificate of residence" for driving licence...now it seems to be very required for everything when dealing with immigration !

Mostly anything that is gas guzzling... the occasional electrified train sometimes a bicycle but the carbon emissions from me puffing and blowing must be high 😋

Don't send any money she will soon stop messaging..and if she doesn't well then maybe you got a keeper.

Well that's a turn around for the books for the last 4 years or so it was the other way round 5555555555555 not so nice when the shoe is on the other foot ehh

And when It doesn't happen are you gonna come back with an apology ?

I have vague memories as a kid with paper straws they hardly lasted till the end of the drink obviously technology has leaped and bounded and they now do actually last till the end of a drink (mostly)..whereas a plastic straw lasts for many drinks and maybe a school project after that and then back to oil again if there is the will. Of course people should not be be throwing the things in the rivers and sea that is down to education.

hoorah !!!!

Same as it should have ever been..the bags had their advertising on it could be made "biodegradable" and a large percent were used more than once. "ja rup sarapow perm mai ka" has been replaced with the rather cheeky "sai toong mai ka" sometimes I ask for a double bag 😋

Why don't you turn it back to oil first then burn it in a gas guzzling pickup truck 😋

Here for the record the above "meme" is in fact a deep fake !!! just in case we get to Idiocracy the above didn't happen and PS feed the plants water not gatoraide and Hitler is not Putin while the dinosaurs roamed.

The very famous UK porn star !! alas I think my VHS tapes have perished.

There is another tower in North Pattaya that was standing uncompleted from the 1997 "tum yang goong" crash it was eventually taken over and completed and still stands to this day (touch wood 😋)
