it is what it is

really? this old chestnut again. Zzzzzzzz 🥱

you'll be upset to hear that my thai gf is an excellent driver, she has five vehicles and drives all of them well.

thai's are not alone in their inability to do this, for example, norway and denmark lead in terms of household debt as a percentage of disposable income, with Norway at 246.30% and Denmark at 244.11%. The netherlands also has a high percentage, at 228.20%. so all in all, thailand isn't that bad

realise it's the poverty that makes them do this not so sure about this, most seem to have money for a smart phone, but not a crash helmet...

tbh, living in issan would seriously do my head in. but as they say, horses for courses.

but, really, is trump intelligent? he's good at promoting himself, good at spreading mis-truth and bullying, but intelligent? most people can see putin is playing him, and has been all along, this fact seemed to escape intelligent trump, most people can see the dire consequences of his unthought through economic policies, but intelligent trump can seem to see them...

yes.

it was indeed a fascinating approach to safety.

indeed. priorities.

traveled through central america twice and south america once, amazing countries, culture, history, food... keep your wits about you and you'll be fine. very little english spoken i had to rely on my school boy spanish 😁

yes, and no, you step out of line in singapore and it's pretty common for the authorities to come down on you like a ton of bricks...

miss world is still a thing? it wasn't even that great back in the day...

having an iphone (2022 model) as a personal phone (the only apple device i have) and an android as a work phone, i'd go iphone every time, it's just easier and more intuitive to use
