Law enforcement all over the world often report minimal seizures. Seize 1 kilo, report 1 gram, then resell the remaining 999 grams. That's why many countries are keen on a zero tolerance policy. Report only 1 gram but sentence according to the real amount (1 kilo). That's the war on drugs for you: as ugly as Hitler's gas chambers

Why not arrest the elephant owners on which dung the mushroom grow?

It's a good move. It could succeed since the wymmyns (who call the shots in EU-Land) have no more to fear from Thai women selling sex for money like they did in the old days. Visa politics in Western countries is 90% sexual politics.

Yes and guess what? They told me no problem just bring your passport, after which mutual comprehension dropped to zero.

I went with my passport so there was no problem getting in. I'd hate to have to leave my passport in those tin boxes again.

I find the locker arrangements at the water parks unsafe. Will I be admitted if I show up only with my Thai driving licence and digital copies of my passport?

Might have to do with burgeoning AI. The number of actual robots out there may be on the rise. This may become the real problem associated with AI, rather than the stupid ethical stuff discussed in talk shows. Fancy having to complete a 2F verification in order to get into any website.

Could have been Mycoplasma pneumoniae. It's like a bad cold but it lasts for several weeks. Has been epidemic in Europe.

I'm not interested in getting a doctor's prescription for some CBD oil. If that's what legal cannabis in Thailand is heading to, that's the end of legal cannabis in Thailand as far as I'm concerned.

"Shockingly, 45 patients dependent on ventilators had not been vaccinated, raising concerns about the vaccine’s protective efficacy." A howler.

Well, the last election brought recriminalisation of cannabis and taxation of remittances. What will the next one bring for us expats? Blanket taxation of worldwide income for anyone staying over 90 days per year?

The farther from the night life, the less expensive. My advice: come to Pattaya between June and September. Everything 50% cheaper.

Edibles only in restaurants? That's new. Smokables only in smokeries then.

Others are linguistically challenged.

25 "best countries" in which to be an incel.

I use a full-body suit for swimming and snorkeling. It stinks from the sea-water after use and takes ages to dry, but it also protects against sunburns should I wish to stay in the water for long.

No, but I wouldn't mind sending other people's for they're getting on my nerves.

Well, I don't think natural disasters and accidents are beyond comprehension. They are further proof that physics and Earth sciences are correct, and that we are, alas, subject to physical laws AND NOTHING ELSE. There is no gain or future gain to be had from any suffering. Suffering of any kind is evil, period.

Are they? Shouldn't the question be "why are do some posters here keep posting Trump-related topics"?

I didn't know you were ever allowed onboard a plane without showing an ID.

More humans, more animals. The tragedy of sentient life. Life, the suffering machine. More suffering, on and on (until the Earth reverts to mineral only). Life is not a blessing. Life is a trap. Yet when they look into the cosmos they want to find "Life". Suffering on one planet is not enough. They want suffering to have taken hold on other planets. How great it would be if another planet accomodated living things to howl in pain while eaten alive by other living things! Living things to suffer in body and mind like here on Earth.

Let's be clear about what is happening when people say this legalisation was rushed and botched by the Thais. What they mean is that the Thai government had the balls to actually go ahead and end the prohibition. Instead it should have discussed and bickered about the legalisation for years and years, to eventually give it up or bury it under tons of rules and restrictions. The people complaining about how badly thought of and rushed this legalisation was are the same kind of people who complain about the same regarding legalisation in the US or the legalisation under way in Germany. When you don't want something to become legal, any legalisation will be rushed and badly thought of.

In Thailand she may get her comeuppance. In countries like France or the UK she wouldn't even get arrested. She would get the pussy pass.

This shows you don't know what you're talking about. Cannabis + ethanol is a lousy combo, every user knows that. At least every cannabis user does. Maybe some boozers don't as a good deal of their neurons will have been killed by ethanol (a skin desinfectant and industrial solvent).

Is it black and white what the laws are in the sex trade? Is it black and white what the laws are regarding the use of Bitcoin? Is it black and white what the laws are regarding house or land ownership by foreigners in Thailand? Where would you be if businesses always waited for "black and white" before taking risks?
