  1. Alternative facts get posted when the cult members can't cope with reality.
  2. Are you talking to me?
  3. To add: Avoid alcohol Avoid fatty foods Keep a bottle or glass of water by the bedside. Take a small sip to dilute any reflux you have during the night. Drink a glass of water plus half a teaspoon of baking soda before going to bed. I was on pantoprazole (Somac) for many years. I have not needed it for about 4 years.
  4. Careful now. Fox has had to shell out $760 million to Dominion for saying the same kind of things. Of course, if it got to trial, you could always plead temporary insanity. IIRC that's what a few of the Capitol rioters are doing.
  5. I don't even know if the cards are made out of cardboard or plastic, or whether Trump has paid the printers. On his past history, probably not. Noted the article is in a cryptocurrency newsletter, so it's in the right place. All Ponzi schemes.
  6. Much less stupid than the people who have bought his NFT's.
  7. Your hero has just had $126 million in damages awarded against him. I don't know if my source is liberal, but it's a fact any way you want to slant it. IMO it's the beginning of an avalanche.
  8. It's OK to express opinions. It would be nice if you occasionally found a fact to support them.
  9. IIRC Trump is the world record holder as far as lying goes.
  10. Food is Thai food, mostly rice soup, if I wanted decent food I would have had family bring it in.
  11. Trump is already convicted of defamation and fraud, and the really serious stuff is yet to come. Law courts are not the same as a political forum, where the GOP can obstruct justice.
  12. New Hampshire showed Haley behind Trump by about 10%. Trump's problem is his 50% are all rusted-on support base. The d!ckheads. The 40% voters Haley got are moderates, what Trump in typical fashion calls RINO's. They are not going to hold their noses and vote for Trump if/when he gets the nomination. In the real contest, they will be defecting in droves to independents. Some may even vote for Biden. How many Democrats do you think will vote for Trump? IMO Trump knows he is losing, which is why he gets more shrill and desperate every day. If he does not win in 2024, jail is a slam dunk.
  13. I understand the term MRE ( Meals Ready to Eat ) was modified by American soldiers to an alternative meaning, Meals Rejected by Ethiopians.
  14. I remember having my blood pressure checked at RAM dental clinic in Chiang Mai about ten years ago, with a battery-operated portable. I knew it was wrong, as I had had a blood pressure check the day before on a big machine at Rajavej. When I looked at the back of the portable, the calibration sticker was 5 years old. As Sheryl says, the only really trustworthy measurement is an experienced person with a stethoscope and manometer.
  15. I guess I am one of the few sensitives, most people seem to like the stuff.
  16. The only president in US history to have non-consecutive terms in office was Grover Cleveland, who won the popular vote three times in a row. He definitely did not have Trump's indictment baggage. Trump has lost the popular vote twice, in 2020 by 7 million. He has alienated millions of women voters by taking credit for the Supreme Court striking down Roe vs Wade. IMO that would tell any sensible person Trump is toast in 2024, one way or another.
  17. Oh dear, another "the election was stolen" true believer. Hurry up and send your donation, although it will more likely go to pay the few incompetent lawyers he has left. Trump has lost multiple times. He has a rusted-on base that terrifies Republicans That doesn't mean he can convince swing voters and independents to change back again, given the chaos of his single term.
  18. The rule of thumb with yellow or orange lights is take it to a service centre or reliable mechanic to sort it out. No need to panic, I had a faulty EMS which went for some time before being replaced. Sometimes, such lights can be corrected by simply disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, to reset the EMS. It may be the oil, or something else, such as a low battery or faulty sensor. OTOH, any red light not associated with things such as the seat-belt or handbrake is the time to stop driving immediately, to prevent further damage.
  19. You were spoilt. What we got as cadets was water, powdered egg, and biscuits. The biscuits were so hard they had to be soaked overnight in water to make them remotely edible. I think they were leftovers from WW 1.
  20. Would you like them as much at 2 am, when the roosters hit their stride in my GF's village?
  21. Young men fight wars at the behest of old men. IMO there would be far fewer wars if the old men were put in the front line.
  22. Why should Israel contemplate a Palestinian State, when Hamas is committed to Israel's destruction?
  23. The Brits obviously do. Isolationist Americans would not.
  24. Did you get coffee or tea in your rations?
