They'd better hurry then because soon there will not be any Ukraine left.

Month-long Pattaya noise Festival 2024 officially begins.

There is a shortage of noise and dust in that area. Demolishing such a building (and rebuilding one like it) would alleviate said shortage in the short term.

That is the case. I didn't know such a spontaneous reversal was possible.

My cholesterol turned out sky-high over a decade ago, with the "bad" cholesterol dwarfing the "good" one. I chose to stop taking statins two weeks after initiating them. What I gathered from my research and short-lived experience: statins not only are bad for body-building and for testosterone but they increase the risk of diabetes by one third. Now unexpectedly my latest blood test showed a substantial decrease (-25%). No idea what may have caused the decrease. I haven't changed my habits. I have taken supplements but none acting on cholesterol. I keep my fingers crossed it will stay that way. Note that a sudden collapse of cholesterol is often a sign of some serious disease like cancer.

Lol, I suspect those flashbacks never really existed beyond recollections of the trip's visuals or impressions. By such a standard, everything in life is amenable to flashbacks. It's like cannabis leading to stronger drugs, crack babies, ex-cokeheads unable to ever again enjoy life ... Meanwhile finasteride and antidepressants often do make patients impotent for life but they prefer to keep relatively quiet about it.

The OP should have his visa revoked for ignorance of punctuation and capitalisation.

Thailand needs immigration badly, what with Thais increasingly considering any hard work is below them.

Scare-mongering. Has someone even ever died of LSD? Having a bad trip that lasts for days is not dying.

There's limited fully ignored data. Your "spoiler alert" shows you conflate aerial and submarine volcanisms, which are two different animals. Aerosols play no part in underwater volcanism and the heat in underwater volcanism is transferred directly to the ocean, which is what the title of the article ("ocean temperatures") is about. Beyond some minor contributions to ocean chemistry, the contribution of seafloor volcanism to the oceans is thermal. Not that climate science would be interested of course, it has better things to do, like chastising "climate deniers".

Rest assured. The few workers who have suspected such a cause (or other causes besides CO2) have been ignored and defunded.

I'm not sorry to see stick gears on the way out. That way car rentals in Europe won't have any excuses left to charge more for automatic.

Not a word about sea-floor volcanism as a major factor in ocean temperatures!

"Bought a one-way ticket to Thailand"? What other parts in this story are bogus?

You mean they're outcompeted by beer-bar grannies?

And we should make it worse for this Brit by republishing the story? So that a deal he may have struck with the police should irrevocably fall through?

I'd rather the bank spied on my account than closed my "data-protected" account because of uncertainties. I need my account more than I need my transactions to be confidential.

Indeed not exactly a legalization. And a joke if what I was told is right (ie CBD, not THC). Sadly too when you get questioned by police for drugs it often matters jack shyt what the law says. Would you test Mexico's, Costa Rica's or Peru's justice system on their "dosis personal" charade? Good luck. Many countries in the EU have long decriminalized "consumption only'. However they have done so in order that police can consume and entrap without themselves breaking the law. If they catch you high you lose your driving license (even if you're not driving) and you escape arrest only if you give them names. Some decriminilization.

If only that were true. Some of those countries have backtracked or never really legalized. One example is Belgium, where I think you're allowed to grow cannabis in your garden provided it's the kind hardly containing any THC. I was in Portugal in November and enquired in a place calling itself weed shop. Only CBD legal there. Some legalization indeed!

That may help against the mosquitos' night shift.

In theory there's usually a sea breeze during the day but the opposite during the night. 4th floor is not high but Pratumnak is high in its own right.

I wonder if on floor 16th in Pattaya I could sleep with the windows open and not get mosquitos. The windows are without mosquito nets unfortunately. I haven't had any mosquitos during the day.

Can be done with only a strong tranquilizer, not really being "put to sleep". Less stressful than a gastroscopy where you need to swallow down the tube. I didn't know it was something you subjected yourself to without probable cause.

Yeah, horse's mouth in the vid at 31:40, for those with a personal interest in the LTR visa.

Replace "kratom" with "cannabis" and you get the type of article that will get published soon after they pass the de-legalisation bill on cannabis. The arresting and jailing will reboot.
