  1. You should be banned from forums as a Kremlin troll spreading disinformation. On topic, Liz Cheney is one of the few Republicans with integrity, who called out Trump's insurrection for what it was. It would not surprise me at all if she was appointed to a Harris government position. Good bipartisan politics, and very experienced.
  2. His uncle and Dad would not recognize RFK........
  3. Perhaps you need to become one of Trump's political advisers on campaign strategy........
  4. Don't know about that, this share might do better...........
  5. The OP may be bisexual. It happens.
  6. How the hell does a 16 yo girl get her hands on ketamine? It's an extremely dangerous drug, probably only available through hospitals.
  7. Or Taylor Swift fans, after she called Trump a sack of sh!t. No danger of the MAGA's being brainwashed, no cells there anyway. I guess you want Joe McCarthy back.
  8. When I went to a class reunion, I could only recognize one person. Most seemed to know me. i just could not connect their faces with the names I knew. I can remember being amused by one guy who claimed to have a Ph.D. in fine mathematics, when I knew he had done a few years in pokey for embezzlement. I decided reunions were not for me, never went back again.
  9. What ethereal pursuits does your life revolve around?
  10. I know one, except AFAIK she would not know first aid. A retired nurse sounds like what you would want.
  11. It's quite probable the rules were evolved in a time when there was more risk. For example, cars had generators, not alternators. It's a given attendants sometimes overfill vehicles. Most of the time, the vapor dissipates harmlessly. The culture here seems to be one of not following some rules. Which makes the sight of Thais dutifully wearing masks, on scooters without helmets, quite comical. It took me three months of nagging to persuade my GF to wear a helmet. Now she does it automatically. I am probably much more risk averse than you. That comes from working in a profession for many years, with chemicals that were so dangerous a single moment of carelessness could result in serious injury or death. I'm still here, i know several who are not.
  12. I am wondering if the ETA is required before boarding an aircraft to Thailand, or if it is a surprise sprung at Immigration. I was once in a situation at Madrid. I had been assured by the Spanish embassy in Canberra I did not need a visa, as I was only there for five days. On arrival, I spent an uncomfortable couple of hours in a small room with two members of the Gardia Civil, complete with sub-machine guns. When it comes to bureaucracy, I remember Einstein's remark about there being no limits to the Universe and human stupidity, except he was not sure about the Universe.
  13. The #1 rule in most Western countries at a fuel station is to switch off the engine. Rules are not conjured out of thin air, they are there for a reason. Risk management. While refuelling a car, gasoline vapours escape. They are heavier than air, and can travel considerable distances - more than 10 metres. Obviously, you live in a perfect world where no attendant overfills the tank of a car. I get it. You live in a country where people are stupid. They don't switch off their engines at petrol stations, or wear helmets when driving scooters. Therefore, that entitles you to be stupid too.
  14. Or perhaps you could grow a few brain cells, and comprehend your actions are placing yourself, your family, and others at risk. You can't bear to be without AC for the few minutes it takes to fill your car up? What kind of snowflake are you?
  15. I can buy tramadol over the counter at a pharmacy in Chiang Rai. No prescription needed. I guess if I asked for a couple of month's supply, I would be refused. However, I am only buying one sheaf of ten tablets once every two months or so.
  16. I won't. I'll just fall asleep.
  17. The son of my former partner went through women like Kleenexes. Handsome, a narcissist, did the little boy lost routine. I remember him staying with us with a brand-new Canadian wife. The marriage lasted 4 weeks.
  18. Your prime risk is a hip fracture. The average life expectancy for someone over 70, who breaks a hip, is 6 months.
  19. YouTube. I don't use TikTok. Possibly I am pretending. IMO healthier than screwing up my liver, stomach, esophagus and kidneys daily with a Class 1 carcinogen. I've seen several people die here from alcohol in various ways. It's never pretty.
  20. No surprise there, IIRC correctly Swift called Trump a sack of sh!t when he got in a huff about her crowd sizes. Apparently half of Swift fans are voting age, so our resident Trump troll is off the mark, as usual. https://www.forbes.com/sites/marisadellatto/2023/03/14/more-than-half-of-us-adults-say-theyre-taylor-swift-fans-survey-finds/
  21. It may be pointless to you. Perhaps you can explain to me the point of getting p!ssed every day, starting early in the morning with wine coolers.
  22. I make YouTube videos. I edit collections of classical music, selecting and combining what I think are the best movements. I experiment with food combinations, and add to my autobiography ( 166,000 words ) occasionally. I suppose it depends on whether one thinks they still have something to contribute, or are content to wait for death. Here's a short example: CLASSICOMBO.mp4
  23. If you have issues, here is not the place to get them sorted. Get professional help, I am not saying that as a put-down. I'd say I was brought up with love. However, my parents made it quite clear if I wanted something, I had to earn it for myself. An example of over-indulgence in my second long-term relationship was the son getting fined twice in the same day for speeding, about 25 km/hr over the limit. She paid the fines for him.
