  1. Investors don't like uncertainty and thats what they are certainly getting so far.
  2. They could learn from history, if the records haven't already been deleted in the DEI purges! The Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, signed into law in June 1930, significantly increased tariffs on imported goods, aiming to protect American businesses and farmers, but ultimately worsened the Great Depression by triggering retaliatory tariffs and a sharp decline in international trade.
  3. Earthquake Drunk Syndrome is very similar to the feeling of having set foot ashore after days at sea, as both involve the brain and vestibular system struggling to recalibrate after exposure to abnormal motion, be it days or 15 seconds. The primary difference lies in the trigger and context, but the underlying mechanism—sensory mismatch and vestibular adaptation—is largely the same. If symptoms persist or are severe, medical advice, such as vestibular therapy or stress management, is recommended, as outlined in guidelines from health ministries (e.g., Thailand's Ministry of Public Health) and research studies.
  4. Earthquake Drunk Syndrome (EDS), also known as Post-Earthquake Dizziness Syndrome (PEDS), is similar to the feeling one experiences after spending days at sea on a boat and then setting foot ashore, a phenomenon often referred to as "getting one's sea legs" or Mal de Débarquement Syndrome (MdDS). Both conditions involve a disruption in the body's balance system, specifically the vestibular system, which is responsible for maintaining equilibrium and spatial orientation.
  5. I'll be renewing mine months in advance just in case, also so that my next extension is a full year Anyone on an annual extension seriously needs to think about renewing their passport well in advance of 1 months expiry date like the op. I am getting my pp renewed within an 18 month window beforehand so that my annual extensions run continuously.
  6. Unlike the rest of the planet, the US cannot even get the name of the country correct, so don't expect much in the way of aid from them.
  7. My point was my Wise came thro in seconds this week, so I won't be looking for alternatives.
  8. Looks like a short column slab design that is unsuited to unstable ground, but cheaper to build. That said their Facebook page for the construction company refers to the design as "Their Pride" and implies it is a design feature.
  9. My Wise came thro in seconds this week.
  10. I'm guessing its mindless political bs along with the drink talking. Another one on my ignore list.
  11. There is no profit when you sell stuff to yourself! He is just restructuring the companies.
  12. But its superfluous. I always use a personal calendar.
