Electric Vehicles in Thailand
Yea, I'm not getting the ones that charge by the hour, especially @ their silly 7kWh rate. I see another, 22kWh @ ฿60 per hour, slow, but actually works out to be inexpensive, if actually 22kwh received @ ฿2.7272/kWh. OK if at the mall or somewhere needing or wanting to be. But not on the road, as can top up from 25ish % in 45 minutes at faster CS (50-75kWh), and much faster if stopping at around the 80% mark. That last 15-20% slows things down a bit. Add another 5-7 mins if completely balancing the cells, though most don't and stop as soon as it hits 100%. I notice most (if in the car) MG CS will hit 100%, then takes another 6 ish mins to complete, assume balancing the cells. Other CS simply stop at 100%. And the computed range in 'eco' mode will be 359 kms instead of 360 ????

Cannabis addiction -- let's discuss
I did, but you don't address your comment to me. Use to have 3-7+/- joints twisted up in the early morning for the day. Smoke one for brekkie, break, lunch, break, pre & post dinner, later on, before sleep. For at least 5 ish years, 16-21 yrs old. Quit 30 day before entering US Army. Started again, daily use, quit again for 30 days before applying for jobs requiring piss test. Then just quit ... for years. Never a withdrawal symptom at anytime quitting. Didn't start again in Thailand till about about 10 yrs ago, and only 1 ounce purchased, lasted me 1 year +. Now have too much to smoke, and I really don't even bother with it. Once a month. Not really in to it any more. It's there if wanting, rare. But for 5-10 yrs, early on, almost daily use, with intermittent breaks, by choice, when needed, and no 'withdrawal symptoms' Simply accept the fact from experienced pot heads, it's not addictive.

Divorce and runaway kids
Binding or not, if he choses to keep leaving, especially with an uncooperating ex, so not much you can do about it.

Add to the fact, it's probably a great excuse for their life's failures. "I was addicted to weed, screwed my life up" ... ???? NO ... you're just a loser, who happen to smoke weed every now & then.

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
I don't think we've paid over ฿7.5 / kWh. I always use negative figures of ฿8 / kWh when posting about CS cost, so nobody is surprised when paying. Same with home charging, and use ฿5/kWh, though yet to pay more than ฿3.8, since monthly usage is so small, if any, or payment needed. ฿8/kWh is good to use when O&A, and yet to be charged that. Using MG CS, EV Station PluZ or PEA Volta vendors. PlugShare is good accurate site Charge Loma app, is good to have also.

Gay sex was illegal here 16 years ago. Now this country could be the next big LGBT vacation spot
Only the most backward countries still care about folks living an alternative lifestyle. Even in the USA, anal sex, or a good BJ, is still illegal in some states, but nobody cares or would bother enforcing such a law. Although a wife might use it as grounds for a divorce, and royally screw in the butt with that little tidbit of the law. Even though she really enjoyed it at the time, at divorce court, it's .... "OMG, you wouldn't believe what he used to make me do, isn't sodomy illegal" ... "I've been the victim the whole marriage" ... "I want the house, car, kids, and most of your income" Oh Krap ....

Cannabis addiction -- let's discuss
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.

Barriers to transgender people accessing Thailand’s healthcare system
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 ...

Unleashed tragedy: Family pit bulls turn from pets to predators, fatally maul bedridden Thai owner
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.

Things to think about before buying a second-hand motorcycle in Thailand
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

Possible return to the UK, without any money.
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.

You think this Generation is different
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.

Full body MRI scan in Phuket (or Bangkok)
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

Phuket Old Town street makes list of world’s most beautiful streets
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 ... ????
