  1. I do hope they took all those nuclear weapons when they cleared out. Now it's the oil.
  2. Did the crowd then violently enter the GOVENMENT BUILDING?
  3. False claims, lies, are easily spread and I worry AI will make them harder to distinguish in the future. Imagine a video of Biden admitting he killed his son with a gunshot to the head.
  4. I doubt the law was halted to allow corruption. Corruption is endemic in many countries.
  5. The states have become more emboldened to defy the constitution A proposed Alabama law would force every school to display the Ten Commandments An Idaho bill would force public schools to read from the King James Bible every day https://www.friendlyatheist.com/ Why do they feel they can ignore the constitution? Someone must have given them a lead. Let's hope the Satanist Church (blessed be thou Satan) requests equal rights.
  6. A Golden Age in Arts and Culture? So no more great Greek tragedies by Sophocles or comedies by Aristophanes because the guys all wore skirts? Ban showings of the movies 300 and Troy? Censor “Some Like it Hot”, “Mrs. Doubtfire” and “Tootsie” ? The guy is so weird.
  7. Let the AI wars commence.
  8. Hardly a traditional part of Thai culture. It implies that for the thousand years prior to 1972, alcohol was perfectly acceptable all day. Still, you have to query people who cannot go 24 hours without a drink.
  9. Loyal friends are worth their weight in gold. Or Chum.
  10. What happened to freedom of speech and inalienable rights? If shops don't want to serve a particular group surely, they have the right to deny service?
  11. Panic can result from doing something we wouldn't normally do. Seems to happen to people in a foreign country. There was that American woman Anne Sacoolas in the UK who killed a motorcyclist because she forgot the Brits drive on the left, who fled and never really faced justice. Happens everywhere. Doesn't mean it is a good idea.
  12. Great idea. Thanks once again.
  13. Bit of a self-serving, narcissistic post. Next.
  14. Apparently, she assaulted her maid by throwing a phone at her. Found guilty. https://www.today.com/popculture/naomi-campbell-pleads-guilty-assault-1C9426424
  15. Extremely violent, no. But parents hitting small kids is wrong. If the girl's father had been there with Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson, the parents might have thought twice.
  16. Good to know there are some very nice people in the world.
  17. This sensitive issue may be compared to Ireland in the early 1900s. The Irish, notably the IRA, fought the Black and Tans and were decried as terrorists. Then, they won the independence of Eire and were suddenly they were freedom fighters. Things may move in a similar direction in Palestine.
  18. How much of the fire was taken by the police as a reward for their work?
  19. When I see people demanding alcohol on the day it isn't sold it looks kind of desperate.
  20. Some videos on X yesterday showing Trump being booed.
  21. Does anyone in Gaza have title deeds for their land? Who actually owns the land?
  22. Making it legal would bring down the price and people who had never thought of trying it would buy it in a local shop. So more people using it is a good idea, is it?
  23. Went in the one that used to be in Soi 15 and the beer appeared to be watered down. The chicken wings were sticky like cobwebs in goo. What do I know. Never went there again. And then they closed.
  24. Is they're anywhere to buy Angel Delight in Bangkok? The legit one I mean.
  25. It is hard to catch terrorists. They use Telegraph and other apps to make themselves anonymous. Then they also use iPhones. People cry, "Why aren't the security services protecting us?" "We can't follow them due to the first class encryption Apple uses." Is a blanket reply. I don't believe Apple is the only reason that security services can't spy on terrorists but the public should not have to allow their phones to be read.
