Keep Right

Unfortunately, freedom of speech is a dying form throughout most of the world now. This is evident on many social media sites such as Twitter, Google and others. Emojis are a form of an expression of speech and are not wrong.

I think the Baht is falling because the world is worried that a far left socialist has been elected.

You will not find tats on the good upper class Thai women. So when in Rome do as the Romans. These bar girls get tated themselves up to appeal to the low class bar patrons.

The problem with luxury condo's is that they quickly depreciate because the Thais do not maintain them. After twenty years they become slums.

Starfish do horrendous damage to coral reefs. A better option would be to put a bounty on starfish so that they be taken off the reefs to preserve them.

A very well written post with great insight into the minds of the Thai society. I like many foreigners did not "get it" when I first arrived in Thailand more than twenty years ago. Now after several law suits, realize this "franchise" idea. But it is not limited to just the police departments. It permeates every aspect of Thai society, government and private sector. It is well known and excepted by the Thai people. And I would agree, Thailand is a lawless state and a very good reason to be very careful.

What about the will of the other citizens of Thailand that did not vote for the Move Forward party. These senators will be able to represent them.

It's about checks and balances and these senators will help to provide a smooth transition of power.

Maybe all that tamping finally lets loose with your b/f that is 40 years younger when he goes to Bangkok.

Cannabis is not a "simple plant." Experts believe your endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays a part in cannabis-related paranoia. When you use cannabis, certain compounds in it, including THC, the psychoactive compound in cannabis, bind to endocannabinoid receptors in various parts of your brain, including the amygdala. Your amygdala helps regulate your response to fear and related emotions, like anxiety, stress, and — wait for it — paranoia. When you use cannabis that’s rich in THC, your brain suddenly receives more cannabinoids than usual. Research suggests this excess of cannabinoids may overstimulate the amygdala, making you feel fear and anxiety which has contributed to the increased rate of suicide in users.

Well at least the British do not have an old geezer living in the basement of the White House, they got that going for them.

It seems that you are living in that world with no religion and little capitalism.

I will be sure to mark my calendar.............................NOT TO ATTEND

So true, women do like the cut. I have asked many women if they enjoy a useless piece of skin hanging over the Schwartz and they said no, it just gets in the way.

Another reason to consider moving to the PI.

What is even more frightening is if ol sleepy Joe kicks the bucket and Harris assumes the Presidency.

The Democratic Party will be forced to support old sleepy Joe assuring anyone from the Republican Party to win.

My grandparents and my parents lived to be in their 90s and they all ate meat and potatoes, not much else. No tofu or a low carb low fat diet. Its all in the genes. Some have it, some don't so enjoy life, eat, drink and be merry for you never know what will kill you. If you live in Thailand, you are more likely to die of a motorbike accident or in a zebra crossing.

Oh my, we must of hit a nerve with you. What kind of pronoun would you like?

Life is cheap in Thailand. You can see it in the way people live and drive.

More proof that Thailand is a third world country hopelessly mired in corruption.

From my observations, I used to think the worst foreigners in Thailand were the Brits, now I am beginning to wonder.

There has been three major ice ages in the last three billions years of earth's history. We are simply in between the last and the next ice age to come. So sit back and enjoy your life because you can do absolutely nothing to stop this occurrence.

Both I think. As the libido decreases there is less incentive to make the effort to get out. To be honest, the more I know of Thai society the less I respect them. Thailand is so corrupt, it is like Thai people are born with a corrupt gene. The ladies are fun but most are uneducated and boring.

I used to go out quite a bit and drive my car to many places during the Covid hysteria but now with tourism back to normal, I tend to stay near home. And now, it is just to hot, polluted and stinky to go out and socialize. Last year we had allot of rain at this time but this year is the complete opposite.
