Farangs need to stop sending money to Thai girls while living abroad
HEY ... why mess with the gals' (or guys') money stream. Working hard and not hurting anyone. Developing their on line business for selling good feelings worldwide The ding dong farang (if farang) feels good about saving the world, or one part of it, then all is good.

Pocket Pistols
Live with one's choices, but I'd find it next to impossible to shoot myself with the Glock 19. If not chambered a round, then definitely impossible, if having the slightest common sense. You simply don't touch the trigger, unless ready to squeeze it. The safety for the Glock is on the trigger. Will not discharge even if dropped. Other chambered autos have discharged by simply dropping on the floor.

Is covid a hoax
Wouldn't call it a hoax, as the virus does appear to be a real thing. Definitely call it a fear mongering, money making scam, knock the middle class down a rung or 2, that did more harm to healthy people than good ... IMHO ... emphasis on healthy, that chose the vaccine. The old & sickly were on borrowed time anyway. One infection away from death, whether the seasonal flu or some other minor bug.

Why I liked the Glock 19 so much. Lays flat against you, and large enough to be secure in belted waste band, yet small enough to be very comfy, without a clip on holster. Safety on the trigger, so near impossible to shot my buddy off. Especially if a round isn't chambered. Not a fan of 'outside' belt holster as catch on everything and quite annoying. Or a fan of my inside belt holster for 38 snub, as the hammer was annoying, and access not nearly as smooth, if needed. On that, needing, never needed, and USA being unsafe is quite the myth, unless you put yourself in harm's way. Most of the shootings, murders are gang banging turf wars. One third of gun deaths are suicides. Stop watching MSM. Without the right to bear arms, USA wouldn't exist, and the colonies would still be under the thump of the tyrannical King & empire. With even less freedom of expression that's allowed now.

Boutique Burgers
No need to spend more than 250 baht for a good burger. Even that's a bit much, as a local vendor puts out a very nice Wagyu burger w/fries for 179 baht. Had a Double Whopper yesterday for dinner, and damn it was good. ฿1 per gr of perfectly charred beef (฿249), freshly prepared (assembled) nice & hot. At PTT Park, on hwy 4, just south of hwy 35 intersection. So much better than the Bk @ Bluport Mall / Hua Hin. Yea, should have adjusted the lettuce before snapping, but I was hungry, no time to waste ... 😎

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
Big oil has been using H cars as a distracting from BEV, for almost 30 yrs. Ever since GM proved you could mass produce an EV (EV 1) and market it, without even trying to, and had a waiting list for customers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Motors_EV1

Some AI fun with Trump
Derangement ... If mental illness wasn't such a sad state for many, there might be some humour in it. Running out of ways to bash Trump, now going for imaginary opinion from dead people. Simply not enough mental health professional available for the millions of deranged folks. Try to get some rest, IF you can ...

Birds in your garden
Agree. have a few Koels around the house, along with lots of other birds. Love listening to them. Had an Open-billed perch in a coconut tree, just outside our wall the other day.

Which dressing for sandwiches/baguettes/salad?
That's a long piece of string ... as depends on the sandwich. Quality ingredients don't really need dressing. Does enhance the flavor of some, though. I think most vendors use way too much, since going cheap on ingredients. Why we rarely order sandwiches out.

EV Charging Stations (CS)
The WLTP's 320 kms rated range for the MG ZS EV is a fallacy. First leg from PKK to BKK yesterday, and the dog didn't even make 142 kms / 2 hr, before barking & whining .... 'LET ME OUT, I got to P, drop a land mind' 320 kms .... don't believe it 320 kms my A$$ ... well, the dogs A$$ Fine, little bitch ... plug in, walk dog ... what the hell, a nice Chicken Massaman sounds good. 46.3 kWh (usable battery) ÷ 13.2kWh per 100 kms = 350 kms Massaman done, now time for Hazelnut coffee, as temp down now, and about to drink. 94% already, and I think I finished coffee @ 97%. We always exceed the WLTP's 320 range at highway speeds, 90 kph, when possible. With CC set @ 90 kph, and AC set @ 22-24C. Usually get 360 kms per full charge around town, at speeds closer to the WLTP testing average speed of 47 kph. Mixed speeds around town, 30-60-90 kph. Since I rarely eat anything that early in the morning, within the hour, needed to stop again 🙄 at any PTT, for an emergency stop. Oh look, a charger here, plug in again, why not. 75% back to 90% before I returned to the car. Actually worked out good, as didn't need charge again, till dinner time, and halfway back home to PKK.

What exactly is a Thai pink ID card?
Office dependent, as I didn't need any of that.

Are we now witnessing the beginning of a worldwide end of heterosexual relationships?
Nah ... just not in closet any more. More probably experimenting since the stigma is less.

Ship carrying 200 people hits the Brooklyn Bridge as search and rescue operation underway
I posted 19 hours ago, and at the time, that was the only info available, 'ship hit bridge', not other info, 'power failure' & etc. Any vids I noticed, simply showed the accident with no real info. Unavailable information, is not ignorance. Same as the lack of info in the OP. What ever makes you feel better. Have a nice day.

Overpopulation — Just a thought
Do you have any ? I used to think the same. Raised one here, TH, village orphan, from age 2, (now 26) and now can't imagine not ever having that experience in my life. Saying that, I would not have one in a 1st world country, as simply too expensive.
