Being black in Thailand is like being a Jew in Nazi Germany.

If any black people can actually make it to the protest without being searched and followed every few minutes I wish them good luck.

Baldilocks and the three hairs put on your mask.

My mail never arrives even before covid.  Some pig has his hands in the box dragging the stuff out.

Seven years is nice.  It's a shame he got caught for no reason though.

I turn in on and off now when I need it.  So many times the thing has ran out of credit.

Just pull it down a bit.  Letting in a bit of virus never hurt anyone.

You have to send a letter to the head of the English department.  Introduce yourself and send the CV.  Just assume they need a teacher there's no need to ask.

The only qualification you need is a white face.  They accept all nutters, homeless, druggies and miscreants.

It says white, pink, grey or green.  No patterns allowed.

If they ever loose the Cambodians, Filipinos or Burmese than they would be screwed.

I don't think I would get in to ''Whopper City'' any more.

I thought the health minister told everyone to smoke dope a few months back.

Technically they didn't go outside during the curfew.

I would love to be able to help out teaching English, as I know that the local English teacher in my village is useless. I don't care too much about the salary as I don't have much in the way of outgoings, but obviously the red tape is horrendous.

 

A little bit of pocket money, a chance to meet some new people and improve my Thai whilst hopefully making a significant improvement to the school's English lessons. Everyone wins, but it's just a nightmare to do and stay 100% above board (no way would I risk working without everything in place).

You will care about the money when you realize how low it is.  Let's just say you could eat your entire salary at lunch.  White people get paid ten times more for the same job plus a bunch of bonuses.  Filipinos at the bottom.  Blacks not considered.

Online teaching is the land of white privilege.  You get white guys from Romania, Russia, Turkey and South Africa that get can barely speak a word of English but they get accepted.  However brown/black guy from UK or America doesn't get pass the interview.  Ridiculous.

The only one I had success with was Italki and then they banned me with no pay for talking about Donald Trump in a thread.  The thread was created by someone else and had been up for a few days.  If you praise the orange you stay if you call him a puppet you get banned.

So now I have started my own company and it is going surprisingly well.

It's the same everywhere.  One place they tied the chairs to a pole so we could not move them.

But some rural places don't care.

I am surprised you have only just noticed this.

Mike Tyson has admitted in interviews that he retired because he's ''not good at it'' anymore.

It would be interesting to see though.

It's not as bad as their army / monk fight thing a few years ago.  That one looked terrible.

I think they will recover quickly.

Where do they dig up this trash.  I spent a short time in Cairo and it is a beautiful city with friendly people.

I agree with Polawat Witoolkollachit, inspector-general at the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society.  Destroy children's lives.
