Biden Widens Lead over Trump in New Poll, Gender Gap Widens
For over 40 years worth of elections I thought the same, but I'm tired of voting for the lesser of 2 evils. I'm not suggesting you do anything, you can vote for either one of them but I'm staying home.

U.S. begins retaliatory strikes against Iran-linked targets in Iraq and Syria.
According to an unidentified senior U.S. official, sometime after the bombing of Kata'ib Hezbollah in late December 2019, a security briefing was convened at President Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate where he and his advisors, including Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Defense Secretary Mark Esper, and chairman of the joint chiefs of staff General Mark Milley discussed how to respond to Iran's alleged role in sponsoring anti-U.S. attacks in Iraq. Reportedly, the targeted killing of Iranian general Qasem Soleimani, whom U.S. officials regarded as a facilitator of attacks on U.S. personnel in Iraq, was listed as the "most extreme option"[87] of many options on a briefing slide,[88] reflecting an alleged practice among Pentagon officials whereby a very extreme option is presented to presidents so as to make other options appear more palatable.[89][87] Trump chose the option to kill Soleimani, prompting the CIA and other U.S. intelligence agencies that had tracked Soleimani's whereabouts for years to locate him on a flight from Damascus to Baghdad, reportedly to hold meetings with Iraqi militiamen. The air strike would have been called off if Soleimani had been on his way to meet with Iraqi government officials aligned with the U.S https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_Qasem_Soleimani#Prelude

If they make it illegal for a foreigner to buy a condo only for investment to rent out, it would keep rents more stable.

Thai baht could depreciate further against US dollar, says K-Research
Nearly 72 percent of all job gains since 2021 were simply jobs that were being recovered from the pandemic, not new job creation. In fact, when looking at today’s economy compared to pre-pandemic levels, employment is up only by 3.7 million, not 13 million. https://budget.house.gov/press-release/fact-check-setting-the-record-straight-on-bidenomics

How do you feel about photography?
I have no problem getting filmed for personal use, but when they put it up on the net for the whole world to see, I should have the right to have my face pixelated, but sadly in many countries I don't have that right.
