This story relates to hotels, not Air BnBs. If the room is not prepaid, properly managed hotels will take a deposit at booking or upon registration. The deposit is released at checkout. Air BnB does not side with the guest, The AirBnB customer has to make a case backed up with documentation. When AirBnB supports the customer, it is with good reason. For example, violating Air BnB codes, spycams, failing to honour a booking. The host has multiple protections under the Host guarantee program. The host also has the option of taking a deposit prior to booking and occupancy. No different than a hotel deposit requirement. Many of the people who complain about their treatment as a n Air BnB host did not do their homework and understand their obligations as a host. More often than not the Air BnB host will have misrepresented the property. If Air BnB was such a ripoff, it would not be as successful as it is, nor would their be tens of thousands of participants. Yes, their are some bad customers. That's why the prudent host requires a deposit.

Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra has the full legal right to assist in Pheu Thai Party's activities. Thaksin received a royal pardon and was paroled. He is now a free man. He is not receiving donations. Pita has an absolute 10 year ban on politics. What part of this do you not understand? This has been discussed in mutiple Thai English language media outlets.

No. In what deluded world would a sovereign nation of 40 million and 9th largest GDP in the world become a state when there are states with a fraction of its population (Montana - 1 million, Vermont 650,000) Why would Canada accept equality with those states? Trump Jr. is about to ignite the fires of Canadian nationalism. The USA will regret the consequences. Might be the best thing to happen to Canada though. It is time it reduced its ties to the USA, maybe even consider a new arrangement with Russia and China. 😗

4 years in politics is an eternity. Much can happen. Farage is Reform. It has no structure, no leadership and no parliamentary gravitas. All it will do is split conservative votes. I anticipate that a payola or sex scandal will hit Reform or Labour. In the UK, there is always some Rentboy or Dominatrix hiding under the bed, or a foreign agent with a bag of cash waiting in the wings to supply fun in the sun for a bloated MP. Labour will do its damage, damage that will be difficult to reverse and damage that will blight the UK for a decade. In the mneantime, the Islamic front will carve out its ghettos and the UK will face a crisis of survival, all done under the strain of the EU and USA kicking it when its down. Might be a good thing for the UK to discover the qualities of humility. It wasn't too long ago that the UK tried to bully Canada into an unfair trade deal. In the face of US tariffs and trade barriers, that deal the Tories fumbled, is going to come back and haunt them.

The criticism of Garland speaks volumes about so many who claim they are opposed to the politicization of the judiciary. AG Garland insisted that evidence to supportcharges be obtained first. The process was slow because the AG made sure the process was fair. For this, some Democrats are angry. And many Republicans are angry because he carried out his obligation to prosecute wrongdoing. Biden is allegedly upset over the pursuit of Hunter. Well, again the AG did not interfere and followed the law. My takeaway is that AG Garland is an ethical, and honourable man, sworn to uphold the law and to follow the procedures set out in the law. He did his job, ethically and transparently. The USA needs more honest officials like him, loyal to the US Constitution and diligent in their work.

The first clause of Article II Section 2 of the Constitution provides: “The President … shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.” Rudy's misdeeds are primarily state law violations. He has pulled every legal trick that he could including a bogus bankruptcy filing that was dismissed. The court has had enough of him and his games. Trump cannot protect him. The reality is that he was caught in his lies, lies which put 2 peoples' lives at risk and who sustained lengthy harassment and threats of violence because of Rudy. Now that he is held responsible, he doesn't want to accept responsibility for his malicious and nasty acts. Let him lose his condo. The man squirreled money away and won't go hungry. If anyone is feeling sorry for him, buy his T shirt or his coffee.

Anyone who disagrees with the mob chant is a sheeple. The sheeple are those who join a collective of the uneducated, with the sole motivation their fear and a lack of comprehension of events and science that is too complex for them. It is an illustration of why much of the population is incapable of making intelligent decisions and are doomed to a lower socio economic status.

Oh for sure, you know the secret. You are part of the national resistance and have worked diligently to protect the world form the master plan to enact world domination.

It's because everyone knows that the proponents are mentally ill and a lost cause. They congregate and exchange their demented non scientific nonsensical idiocies. So many of them were begging for the vaccine on their death beds that it became a standing joke in the ICUs.

For sure, because ignorant uneducated buffoons who had no understanding of the technology were so scared and frightened that concocted a parallel universie based upon invented facts. Smarter people exploited their ignorance and sold them various potions and special cures. Even the pollow salesman knew what to do. The really smart people used enemas to ward off Covid. I heard from someone who saw it on the internet, the only way to protect yourself from Covid was is if you give yourself enemas 2-3X a day. You can probably find it on X. You should try enemas. As many as you can handle.

You bet there was an agenda. I heard it was put together at the Masonic Lodge and that the illiterati faction of the anti illuminati patriotic front tried to stop it . I heard from someone who saw it on the internet, that taking special enemas 2-3X a day protects from Covid. Did you try an enema? You can probably find the procedure on X.

Oh yes, for sure. It's got Soros written all over it. gates' micronanobots are piloting the. aircraft dispersing the. vapors.

One is subject to a ban on political activity and the other is not.

They most certainly do. Every year approx. 70 ships are lost at sea. Hundreds have serious problems. As I write, the St Lawrence Seaway is disrupted because a vessel lost power and ran aground a few days ago. The Dali hit the Baltimore bridge last March causing the bridge to collapse and killing six construction workers. The ship lost power before veering off course and striking the bridge. Back in 2022, Atlantic had a pretty good story highlighting the problems with international shipping; Felicity Ace is currently afire and adrift in the Atlantic Ocean, off the Azores, with a reported 4,000 cars on board, including Porsches, Bentleys, and Audis. The crew abandoned the vessel, en route to the United States, last week, and firefighters are now trying to control the blaze. In January, a different container ship, the Madrid Bridge, limped into the port of Charleston, South Carolina, after losing about 60 containers at sea. Pictures of the vessel showed one row of the metal boxes collapsed and teetering over the gunwale. A week later, an oil-storage vessel exploded off the coast of Nigeria. Within days, a Mauritian oil tanker had run aground off Reunión in the Indian Ocean. In Peru, workers are still cleaning up a spill that, according to some accounts, occurred when a tanker was rocked by tsunami waves. Experts are nervously watching another tanker off the coast of Yemen, which is slowly disintegrating in the midst of a war and an existing humanitarian crisis. Russian fleet like much of the world's fleet is not well maintained because it costs money and many operators believe the vessels are not worth the effort. The sailors' lives are put at risk because of that mindset.

Let me know when the WHO chief calls for Hamas to stop using hospitals as command and control centers and as munitions depots.

Calling yourself a jounalist doesn't amke you a journalist. They were propagandists working on behalf of Hamas.

Perhaps he had a flashback to when he was in Ukraine looting women's lingerie and home appliances when one of the grannies resisted his attempt to sexually assault her?

The major booking sites now force payment in advance. Some offer the option to cancel up to 72 hours in advance subject to a higher room rate and a penalty. When I book, a major hotel chain, the reduced rate is non refundable. It adds up. I often take the non refundable member advance rate at the BKK Airport Novotel, but I still end up paying 6,000 +baht. Looks to me like the guy was scammed. It happens when you try to score a deal off the internet.

Secrets from a mentally diseased kathoey/sexworker? No thank you.

Valid point, but the contrarian in me, says that the Labor government is such a sh*t show, nothing can take away from the farce that it is.

Oh for sure, you have valid points. The thing is that we have to look at the past as it occurred and not let the current characteristics cloud that reality. By this I mean, it is irrefutable that Carter in his post Presidential period tried to be a humanitarian and his Habitat to Humanity activities was a demonstration of leading by example. However, he was also arrogant and had the attitude that he knew better. Some would call it self assuredness, but others might say that he wasn't a good team player. Carter sometimes felt snubbed when the other Presidents would not ask his advice. Well, the incident with North Korea showed why; As president, Bill Clinton took Jimmy Carter up on an offer to help de-escalate tensions with North Korean leader Kim Il Sung, according to the Clinton Library. “The use of President Carter to resolve this conflict proved complicated, when he announced an unofficial agreement with North Korea to bring an end to the stalemate on CNN before allowing the Clinton Administration officials to review the agreement,” He shouldn't have done that. As you intimate, perspective is important. Biden was once opposed to desegragation busing, before he changed his ways. And it can be said that Biden did his utmost for the Afro American community as VP and then President. Jimmy Carter in his second run for Governor sought the endorsement of Lester Maddox the noted segragationist Governor of Georgia. That doesn't mean Carter was a bigot, but it does show that his principles were not necessarily as pristine clean as the image promotes. No denying Carter was a good and decent man, and that he accomplished some very good changes such as his appointment of women to the judiciary, However, as a President, he didn't leave much of a legacy except the Camp David accords, which is pretty decent, but not enough to make him stand out.

Give it a rest. Trump will be President as of Jan. 20, 2025. Fixating on Biden serves no purpose. It's as stupid as those who fixated on Clinton, then Bush and then Obama after their respective terms ended. It's just a cheap excuse to avoid the current situation.

This is a mutually intentional non dispute. Free publicity for both of them.

Perhaps, the humans should stop feeding them and trying to coax them into taking photos. More warning signs in foreign languages might help.So many tourists are absolute idiots.
