  1. The logic of your critical thinking is demonstrated by : ''If seat-belts work to prevent car accident deaths why are they not preventing car accident deaths?'' Obviously my statement is nonsense!
  2. I had a good laugh at this article, the only comment I could make would be Dmitry Peskov is self-projecting and gas-lighting in his usual delusional way....... Kremlin says Russia has made significant progress towards 'demilitarising' Ukraine "The Kremlin said on Friday that Russia had made significant progress towards "demilitarising" Ukraine, one of the goals President Vladimir Putin declared when he launched his war against Kyiv 10 months ago". Kremlin says Russia has made significant progress towards 'demilitarising' Ukraine (msn.com)
  3. There is a little expat community near Chumphon at Thung Wua Laen Beach. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1333712086758165/?ref=share Also just north of Nakon Si Thamaratt there are a few resort areas like at Sichon, Khanom and Black Elephant Mountain where expats are living.
  4. Yet, the 13th and 14th Amendments to the US Constitution directly address slavery and racism.
  5. Putin is ready for a cease-fire but trusting the other side is a problem for him. Even after Russia did everything by the book, citing the Minsk Agreement as the reason for his distrust but failing to mention other issues like the Budapest Agreement. Ukraine war: Vladimir Putin says deal may be needed to end conflict as he admits mistakes were made over mobilisation | World News | Sky News Why the Minsk Accords Failed to Bring Ukraine Peace - The Washington Post (googleusercontent.com) Ukraine war: what is the Budapest Memorandum and why has Russia's invasion torn it up? (theconversation.com) Obviously, the reason for his newfound generosity is possibly this.... Russian troops discuss mass exodus from frontline in leaked calls as Putin faces mutiny (msn.com)
  6. The PSA test will also show other possible prostrate issues such as BPH and infection and also UTI's.
  7. The responsibility of a US citizen is to support military service and pay his taxes. I suggest that a higher bar is expected from president or an ex president. Mafioso Don has been a miserable failure at both roles.
  8. What do you suggest is spreading rabies then? Perhaps you could post evidence that shows that there other significant reservoirs of rabies that are infecting humans beside the rare instances like pet rabbits etc.
  9. At 350 baht you may receive rabies vaccine regime which can take more than a week to effect an immune response and protection meanwhile the rabies incubation can be as short as a week depending on location and severity of bite. So without rabies immuno globin as recommended by WHO at many thousands of baht you are on a slippery slope.
  10. Expect the worst and you'll never be disappointed. I am not a medical professional, but I don't think feeling a small growth inside your prostate always means that it is cancer or something that needs to be killed. If after an MRI and a biopsy you find that you really have cancer it may not be a high Gleason score and may only need active surveillance and having cancer is not a sentence as I have found out. Anyway, thank for sharing and Good Luck!
  11. I am all for Freedom, for speech and also for not cancelling a women's freedom of choice.
  12. If when you say woke you mean "aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)", perhaps you could post some proof of your claim? Woke Definition & Meaning - Merriam-Webster
  13. Yet, Trump used POTUS emergency powers to fund the building of the big, beautiful wall which Mexico never paid for, against the wishes of Congress.
  14. Did you have urine cultures for those " always UTIs" ?
  15. Lucky you are still young enough to enjoy Phuket to the max. I lived there for almost 10 years, its a great place!
  16. There are eligibility rules for OAP like having two years continuous residency before or after application. There is some provisos to that 186-day rule and new legislation from last year is still in the pipeline. I suggest you read the OAP and OAP Portability forums there is info about all of this.
  17. I would suggest that if you are in receipt of the Old Age Pension or part of it, there may be issues with your Oz residency status for your pension and also for your taxation liability with a pension or not. If so, get some expert advice.
  18. I developed peripheral neuropathy shortly after taking a prescribed course of Norfloxacin a fluoroquinolone. "Fluoroquinolone antibiotics and risk of aortic aneurysm/dissection" and "Central Nervous System Effects". Update - fluoroquinolone antibiotics and adverse events | Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) "Ultimately, the risk of peripheral neuropathy increased by an estimated 3% for each additional day of current fluoroquinolone exposure, maintained for up to 180 days post-exposure". International Committee Proposes MS Disease Progression Framework Driven by Pathophysiological Mechanisms, Not Clinical Phenotype (neurologylive.com)
  19. I watched the 2020 version and OMG it was blood thirsty. It also wasn't worth watching, IMHO!
  20. Reading the topic heading I thought that's a very skilled crustacean, most people would hire a chef!
  21. i would suggest that it was mainly Murdoch who made Trump and he can also break him, like he did in Australia with PM Whitlam . "Kill Whitlam." "This was the confidential instruction for a political hit job issued by Rupert Murdoch to his editors' "The target was Australia's Prime Minister Gough Whitlam" 'Ten months after that "Kill Whitlam" directive, the prime minister was dismissed by the governor general of Australia' Trump not first politician to be ditched by Rupert Murdoch - BBC News
  22. More missiles today, Russia is bent on destroying Ukraine's infrastructure. More strikes have been reported across Ukraine, days after one of Russia's most intense bombardments of the war. "Officials say a gas production facility and a missile factory in Dnipro were among the latest targets and that at least four people died in one area. In recent weeks, Russia has looked to target key Ukrainian energy infrastructure, following a series of battlefield setbacks. Moscow has not yet commented on Thursday's alleged attacks" Ukraine war: Gas plant hit in latest Russian strikes - BBC News
  23. I found this video interesting. Russia has rockets but no asphalt! But now it hasn't many missiles left! Though it's from Ukraine I suggest that Russia's standard of living and services shown are not overly exaggerated. In the 2000's I was alone with Thailand's new Russian a/consul on a tour of the Golden Triangle, and he told me he was very impressed with Thailand's standard and was quite open about them his own country.
  24. Richest man in OZ pledges USD 500 million to a start a Rebuilding Ukraine Fund He is just as rich as ex Aussie Murdoch though I suggest a lot kinder and more benevolent. In fact, this is more than the total aid the Oz Govt has currently given. Though with a small population of only 25 million, it is still impressive. Andrew Forrest pledges $744 million towards rebuilding Ukraine, aims to attract investors - ABC News
  25. Possibly, here is the reason why and also why the Republicans want to repeal Biden's College initiatives. Education is tied to conspiracy theory belief. Also, TBH, supporters of Trump felt aliened by previous Govt's. and Trump offered to change that. Though he never kept his word. "Among other things, studies find that people are more likely to endorse conspiracy theories if they feel alienated, powerless and disadvantaged, and if they are distrustful of others. Additionally, a variety of demographic factors have been found to predict conspiratorial thinking, including low levels of education". Is Education Tied To Conspiracy Theory Belief? : 13.7: Cosmos And Culture : NPR "People with high education are less likely than people with low education to believe in conspiracy theories."
