In the immortal words of David Bowie, "Boys keep swinging." And if they are swinging, go into the men's rooms.

Benefits move around like pass the parcel in Thailand.

No oxygen through blood vessels to keep the skin fresh? Surely the skin will become dry and wrinkled?

Who voted him into Congress?

I feel curious about this whole saga. Maybe someone knows more than I. Regarding the US diplomatic cables, the whistleblower never disclosed information to the public directly but to Wikileaks, a whistleblower outlet. Wikileaks is Australian (I think) so the whistleblower might have been accused of treason if the information went to an enemy country. Australia is not an enemy so treason was off the table but espionage laws were employed. Wikileaks then gave their information to newspapers like The Guardian, The New York Times, and Der Spiegel, and didn't actually release anything to the public directly. The public had never even heard of Wikileaks. Those newspapers were never charged with anything. Yes, Wikileaks provided the information given them by a whistleblower but the decision to publish was made by the media involved. They, or their editors, were never charged. For some reason, Daniel Ellsberg was not charged with anything in 1971 for his release of the damaging Pentagon Papers. Mark Felt provided information on the Watergate scandal in 2005 to Woodward and Bernstein and neither he nor they were ever charged with anything. Why was only Assange charged and not Wikileaks as an organization and the other media who did the actual publishing?

Thanks. I was thinking that Pete Buttigieg is quite respected.

Can the Democratic Party actually name a different candidate at this point?

Bring back the Liberal party. At least they used to get important things done: social insurance and the reduction of the power of the House of Lords; the establishment of a national system of education, voting by secret ballot, the legalization of trade unions, the enfranchisement of the working class in rural areas, reconstruction of the army (involving the abolition of the purchase of commissions), reform of the judicial system and the foundations of the British welfare state. Now they look pathetic and parties like Reform offer no change, just more bull, racism and help-yourself mentality.

A secret, tiny part of me wants Trump to win. Then I wake up and the thought disappears.

I am surprised she has not seen any archive film of the camps when they were liberated, or interviews with camp inmates. I suppose she thinks they are all fake. So many loonies these days wont accept first hand evidence or film/video.

Setting dogs on old people is a horrible way of behaving. I don't know what this Mario guy thinks but he must know that he doesn't own the beach. I can't imagine what an old gentleman cycling for exercise is doing to disturb anyone. If Mario has resort customers, which is more likely to hurt them, an old guy exercising or vicious dogs snapping at them?

I read about how AI can help medical diagnosis speed up and how it can help medical science. In such cases, the AI is not likely to nuke the world. I understand that many thought Bill was injecting microchips in the COVID vaccine but those are not the people to decide about this. He sounds sensible.

You are correct that 20 is the average in a good school today but I was thinking about 15 being recommended. According to the NEA, a good number to target is 15, which lies in the middle of their studies based on the 13-17 students per classroom. https://www.raymondgeddes.com/blogs/news/determining-the-best-classroom-size

I thought it was spelled Phoenix in the Harry Potter books.

Sleep comes in between being awake. Being alive is like being dead but shorter. Novels require good spelling. (He seems to write drivel - just based on the quotes given by the OP)

A traitor has to be an American national. No foreigner than be a traitor.

Another excuse to dumb down The ChildrenTM while seeming to care. Where are the educational opportunities for The ChildrenTM of poor families? Where is the policy to improve the education of teachers while they have more free time? Where is the attempt to improve PISA scores? When will classes have just 15 students?

Well I thought he was here to play with his grandchildren. Mind you there are some in Pheu Thai who are young enough.

It was ludicrous to expect then to Livestream the election. How could they fix it if everyone could see?

If she won, members of the family she hasn't seen for 20 years would have visited by now.

Which is the party of law and order again?

Someone once said, if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. Anyway, he can still be elected while in jail.

If grannie witnessed the act there was no need to use torture on the victim. The poor kid must have believed he would kill her whole family if she told anyone.

Hard to definitively say guilty without revealing a shred of evidence. Hopefully, any civil case brought by Big Joke will show any evidence they have. Have not. To have our to have not - isn't that some kind of movie?
