save the frogs

I don't think Western society has degraded to the extent you claim it has.

well, then the sky is truly falling and crumbling. a Western pilot who is pro-Palestinian lost his job. Best to keep your political views to yourself if you want to keep your job.

well, maybe women have had to tolerate a lot of annoying cat calling for years and years. just don't do it. i never did it, even before the laws.

we're illiterates here. keep it brief. they're putting you out of your misery. if you buy houses like that, you'll be a target.

harassment / cat calling , NOT talking in a civilized manner.

need to wake up early

tackle each problem individually. you are worring about putting on weight? are you? get a treadmill. growing old ... find some literature to prepare yourself for the inevitable, maybe some buddhist texts ... rising cost of living - be more frugal. read up on minimalism. marital situation - we have some relationship experts on AN.

he's right. it is a wasteland.

exactly. run for your life.

what about drugs? what if all drugs are legalized? combined with jobs being replaced by AI and people have nothing to do and are on (hard) drugs all the time.

human beings have repeatedly let me down. online is a substitute because you can keep people at a healthy distance, where most people belong. the Tesla humanoid bot Optimus may sell for as little at 10K dollars. i'm saving up for one. and Optimus may be my best buddy.

You just started a thread on an internet forum. But I don't think you or most people even appreciate what it is. In many ways, communicating via the internet is better than meeting people in real life. Youtube videos are far more interesting than meeting up in a bar. And online, if you're not interested in what someone has to say, just ignore it. You have access to way more people online than you ever could in the real world. Arguably, apart from playing sports or if you're the Beatles creating the white album, or female company for sex, with all the access to differente bloggers and forums online, there isn't that much need to meet up in bars with your 6 frienemies anymore.

he's a punk. not sure what they call that in ireland. but his luck of the irish is running out.

yeah, that's a lot! i didn't meet one person who dropped dead (then again, my social circle is small) but there's a couple of aholes around me I wish would have been obliterated by that flu.

yeah, that's a good way of putting it. you're not a troll. you're just a scribbler.

because he's conspicuously absent from your threads.

it's not either/or. mainstream news / science can be factual or flawed. conspiracies and non-mainstream science can be factual or flawed. there's fake news and real news on both sides.

An AI supercomputer cannot possibly be any less objective than human beings. Nor as heartless as human beings. Even though technically AIs do not have a heart.

how come no one, not even the mods, can guess who you were 10 years ago? has your personality morphed unrecognizably since then? would you say you were less attention-seeking 10 years ago? and what was your first ever topic as a thai visa virgin?

The only way to end this conflict for once and for all is to put AI supercomputers as government leaders. No more leaders with emotions, holding grudges. Just an objective AI supercomputer.

sorry, this may not be very helpful. no personal experience with a franchise. just thinking out loud. rules and regulations may differ from a normal business. not sure if it means you don't need 51% "thai partner" ?? https://www.konradlegal.com/2022/11/30/how-can-a-foreigner-start-franchise-business-in-thailand/ This type of business relationship also has interesting legal advantages: Foreigners will not have to deal with Thai restrictions on foreign entrants They are not subject to Thai legal restrictions on foreign parties: such as the Foreign Business Act, the Tourism Act, ...

nice job, gamma. you just started a "political" thread.

so you planning to move there, bignok? word for "bird" there is "manok". so if you move there, we will call you bigmanok.
