An official transcript of a speech? Sure!

Is it normal everywhere to pull out to pass when an oncoming fuel tanker is, well, coming on?

Thanks, I've sent emails to two of them for details. From the intertubes, it appears some acceptance agents may be authorized to confirm original documents, possibly avoiding the need for an embassy visit. That would be convenient. If not, DIY. Will update if/when they respond.

That doesn't make any sense. You want to ignore a user, but you want to still see their posts, but you don't want to accidentally un-ignore their posts when you want to see a hidden post from a user you are ignoring, which means you won't see their posts when you want to see the posts that you don't want to see?

All of them, but you allocate trust based on reliability. Let's take the Lavrov situation. You can accept the Daily Mail or similar quote-mining a western official's interpretation of what he wants you to believe Lavrov intended to mean to say. Or you can try to go to the source and get the official transcript and read what was actually said....if your country permits you to view unapproved content. Western media in general refuse to publish direct quotes from Russians or Chinese or Iranians, and rarely if ever a full sentence, only a juicy tidbit or two taken out of context.

Exactly why I'm asking for input. She has all the Thailand assets in her name, with no other income other than a thousand or so in band/bond interest. House sale would show minimum million baht gain. If I'm correct in that TRD approves gifts being transferred to foreign accounts, that would make joint US filing unnecessary.

MY opinion doesn't matter. Russian news sources aren't permitted. Western only, limited to narrative-approved story hour. Can't even link to the official ministry websites. You MAY quote a massaged paraphrase of a quote-mined statement from Lavrov in the Sun or the Express. You may NOT quote the actual statement by Lavrov from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Same reason scooter riders go around the barrier arms to cross the tracks, ignoring the bells and flashing lights, instead of waiting for the train to pass......convenience. Rules are for other folks. And in those all too common threads, posters often ask.. As a frequent rider on that route did she always ride around the active railroad barriers instead of waiting for the train to pass? If so, why?

Moscow Times? Well, if it's from Moskau, it's gotta be true! Oh, wait...... Russia's justice ministry has designated The Moscow Times, an English and Russian-language online newspaper, a "foreign agent", the publication said late on Friday. The "foreign agent" designation requires media outlets and designated journalists to place a disclaimer on items they publish and imposes strict financial reporting and self-disclosure requirements. In a statement reported by Russian media, the justice ministry accused the Moscow Times of distributing inaccurate information about decisions taken by the authorities, thereby forming what it called a negative image of Russia. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-designates-moscow-times-newspaper-foreign-agent-2023-11-18/ That's about as reliable as citing articles from the Epic Times as "proof" of propaganda claims about China.

In that case, it would be bestiality. But we'll call it "animal husbandry" to legitimize it.

Tried in 1861, allegedly settled in 1865. Still, there are parts of Oregon and California with sane citizens that want to secede from the depravity of those states. Don't see much support from the left-leaning for those proposals. "But this time it's different."

I don't claim to be an expert either, but it seems to me that obsessively posting anti-Russian propaganda articles, much like obsessively posting anti-China screeds or anti-Trump hit pieces, is something to be ridiculed.

They have a space program that can reach, ummm........space, and a missile program that can go boomski. I hear they even have piers that float! Whatever they can't produce, they can get from China. I'm shirley they'll do fine.

Border policy seems to be "Don't look, don't see." Apprehensions don't necessarily correlate to crossings, especially if 'crackdowns' in specific areas are publicized, giving illegals a heads up to illegally invade at less personed border areas.

Article says, he says, gofundme says. Per the Yahoo link: He continued: "I was on that and just going to the shop then the next thing I knew I was flying over the handlebars. I don't really remember it but a scooter came out of nowhere and I crashed into it. It was really scary. I was knocked out for a minute, they called an ambulance and then I rocked up in hospital. I would like to see his TikTok stream for the minute leading up to the crash. I assume he was paying more attention to his dozen of followers than to the road. Otherwise why cut that part out? Why not show the world how you were riding carefully when.... Well, I wasn't about to slam on the brakes 'cause I didn't have none to start with. So I swerved to the left and what do I see, some mushhead on a motorcycle headin' right at us and I knew, at last, me and my baby were about to meet the leader of the pack.

Found part of his Tiktok on Yahoo, conveniently cutting out everything prior to the accident. Probably nothing significant. https://uk.news.yahoo.com/british-tourist-left-nothing-terrifying-230000641.html

Please, he had more important things to do, like making eye contact with his many followers on Tiktok.

Look, ma! 5000 views! I'm a famous Tiktok'er! ummm..........please send cash.

Remember to make an online appointment with MFA, else you'll be at the mercy of the goons that grab all the daily appointments each morning and sell them to the folks turned away at the registration window as all slots are taken.

We collect our cardboard and plastic in separate bags, set them outside once a week. Gone in twenny minutes. If it works, fix it.

My prediction: Residents will be required to sort into three types of waste. Industrious policemen may check outside trash containers for compliance if thirsty. Fines for non-compliance will be introduced. With refuse sorted into three containers, Bangkok will need to purchase two additional fleets of garbage scows, as present vehicles do not have sorting abilities. This will require studies, commissions, junkets, and then further studies before purchase. Metro trash collection will now have three fleets of large, noisy and stinky vehicles clogging up the sois. Three times the pollution, three times the maintenance, three times the employees, three times the congestion. In about a year, some enterprising journalist will investigate to find that all three trucks dump their contents into the same pile at the collection center. Hub of waste!

The elevated high-speed rail, domestically built, will be an experience to remember. "โอ้ มนุษยชาติ!"
