For me ... Just the opposite, since using every day & stopping when wanting to, and why I 'know' it's not addictive. Habit forming, probably, and no different than my morning coffee ritual, but not physically addictive, and you won't have physical withdrawal symptoms if going 'cold turkey' from smoking ganga.

I can't think of a conversation I've had or situation I will have, where I need to use cis for anything, or any of the other new silly words/pronouns. I don't know any of my friends or family living an alternative lifestyle, that use or would want me to use any of these silly words. None of us cares about our 'gender' or 'sexuality', or having it the topic of discussion. It's all pretty obvious. We live our lives. Do I really need new words to label people ? Pop over to friends house, both 40ish yrs old, both same sex at birth, never married or divorced from previous opposite sex marriage, 1 bedroom ... do I really need or care for a new word to label them. Jim & John or Laura & Lisa will do just fine. Anything else is obvious, or I simply don't care or need to know. Any new friends, and their lifestyle will become obvious, sooner or later, unless they feel the need to tell me right away, to weed out the bigots. That's fine and also understandable. When where and how do y'all even have conversation or need for these new words ? If not for AN, I'd never notice or discuss the silliness. On topic, a doc needs to know one thing, your birth sex, and you don't have to tell them, as it's pretty damn obvious. If I go to the doc for yearly check up, they won't be ordering a mamma gram or send me to GYN for any extra inspection. They won't be looking for or trying to check my wife's prostate either. They'll save that prostate exam for me, and both hands better not be on my shoulders or waist when doing the exam ... not unless taking me out for dinner & drinks first ...

If that photo was the dogs home most of their life, then no big surprise. Along with killing the neighbor's dog ... no early warning there. Bad owners = bad dogs Keep my in a small cage, and I'd be P'd when I got out also.

Sounds a bit straight to me. Female at birth attracted to males. Simply enjoys crossdressing.

Oh well ... shame he wasted all that money on alcohol and Ins. premiums. Live & not learn, seems to be too common.

@Scouse123 When does it NOT become time to put money aside in a separate account and self insure ? Never had health ins Never really needed health ins Never expected a health ins co. to be then when needed .... nuff said No better time than NOW

Fluent Thai and have to ask on a forum ... hmm

If just for knocking around town, DECO offers new MB starting at <฿30k. You won't be going far or fast (top end), but doesn't get any cheaper to buy & own new. Some with removable batteries if needing. DECO

OP could always just go live at a wat, free room & board for faking to be a member, till retirement kicks in. Just save enough of current funds for flight home and max Imm overstay fine. If caught overstaying, then free room & board again, till deported, buying that same ticket home.

Depends on how raised, and their ambitions. My daughter is a bit money hungry, as wanting to retire ASAP, same with her partner. Shooting for retiring @ 45 yrs old. Could care less about selfies, as doesn't have the time or waste money bothering to post, where or what she eats or travels to.

And yet, I got the highest COLAs on my SS, which is based on inflation ... go figure.

Try an ultrasound, though, depending on your wt/ht, do you really need to know how much. Just assume you have a fatty liver, and adjust your diet. It's not rocket science

That's an easy mistake; ... Ukraine ... Iraq They both have the letters I, R & A

Seems to be a crime in the UK also ... go figure: same same

THANKS People really should visit a place before commenting about what they don't know. Some cables still there, but nothing like you see elsewhere in TH. 360° Street view

Also been there, and some time ago (Feb 2021) and also during Sunday Market. It is quite nive area, and that soi particularly. Almost popped in there a couple weeks ago. Kind of wish I did now, as doubt if I'll be returning. Kwang Mojito is on that soi, and best Mojitos in TH. Spent a bit of time there last visit. Damn friendly and keeps pouring, whether paying or not ???? Kwang Mojito

If not for the threads on AN, I probably would be in 'Ignorant Bliss' about it all. NO, I had to open the damn thread ... ???? I simply love reading about the imaginary oppressed ... ????

... bookmarks ????

I actually had to Google it, for this thread, as I had forgotten what it meant. Which I also did, quite some time before, reading a news-blip, and had to google to find out what it meant. In between, since don't use or see often, forgot it's meaning. Might stick this time, or not.

I guess you've never been to a alternative lifestyle bar, or know many gay people. They are not like the stereotypes portrayed on TV series, or the tourist attraction Katoeys or OTT (look at me) ones found in TH. You'd really be surprise how 'normal' they look, and OMG, they walk amongst us. Truck driver's, all union trade workers, teachers, stock broker's, and every profession. Until making eye contact and talking to them, you'd never have a clue, and only if they want you to.

Not really, and where we disagree. Not in my dictionary for use .. ever. Just because someone else 'legitimizes' it, doesn't make it so, in my world. That goes with so many other things. May even be redefined in years to come, or added to the 'slur' words, banned everywhere. Agendas have a tendency to do that. This new, current agenda, I'll never get on board with, as completely silly & unnecessary. It's only purpose is divisionary, and people are falling for it. Kind of sad really. People and sexuality, preference hasn't changed since the beginning of humans strolling around on this rock. Don't need new words, or any really, to describe what has always been. People enjoying theirs and other's bodies. Do we really need more subcategories of; H. sapien ... male ... female

Apples & oranges. New words for something that just doesn't change; male, female. I don't need or want any new words or changed definitions of what I was already taught.

So are they considered 'out of bankruptycy' or at least enough to start refunding all those covid tickets people purchased. Or am I not up to speed on news of refunds ? Anyone out there still waiting, though may not help with all the new fare increases.

Actually the markings seem sensible to me, especially at night, where you may not see a dark object curbside. Whether object allowed or not is a different issue, but since there, might as well make it well known.
