save the frogs

who will take over? murderers? and what experience do they have running a lemonade stand, let alone a country?

A failed marriage and a couple of unrequited love stories changes men in irreversible ways. Everything is reversible, man. In time.

I would never have a large family. Too much risk of it turning into sibling rivalry. People should probably stick to having just one child.

Try to get a credit card that has an app on your phone that allows you to block the card when not in use. I am looking for one now.

my relationship with my siblings is horrible. the sibling rivalry is off the charts. Xmas is extremely painful to tolerate. one reason to move to thailand is to get away from sibling rivalry and Xmas. being alone is better than being surrounded by hostility. and you can pop into a bar on Xmas ... you're never alone in thailand.

Let everyone have 1 vote? But my point is that people are deluded in thinking that "democracy" is some magic thing where everyone will be blissful all the time. It's impossible for everyone to agree with everything the govt does, no matter what type of system is in place. Maybe the best form of govt is a (drum roll) .... "BENEVOLENT DICTATORSHIP" ?

The word democracy is like the word love. It's so abstract that it's hard for 2 people to define it the same way and hardly means anything. Let's say the president decides to vote on abortion. And 51 per cent like it and 49 per cent don't. Technically, that's democracy, but still half the population is miserable because they don't get what they want. It's like that for just about any issue. Not everyone agrees on everything. So people will always be upset about something.

Yeah, I made the same comment in another thread. I wonder if it's because the authorities are not getting revenue from this online stuff.

sorry, I cant recommend a physical store. but have you ever considered buying from Etsy? I bought a couple of pieces of jewelry on Etsy. And I prefer online as you can compare a bunch of different items, taking your time, until you find the one that feels just right. i prefer Etsy now to going to a physical shop.

this guy has a fairly comprehensive list .... 52:07 No. 16 - Bangkok Rooftop Bars

Sorry, but eating a croissant is not ok just because you eat it after steak and eggs because it lowers the sugar spike. A croissant is a croissant. It's refined carbs. I hope you're not eating croissants every morning. That will set your health goals back.

there are no interesting people

If Al Pacino were here, he'd call if Hoo-Ah Hin

Yeah, lots of AN folks wear cheap suits

wonder if this broad is a bargirl.

a thread about frogs is long overdue

twain wrote a story about a frog? ha ha.

Joe Rogan predicted it way before this event happened.

The "dictator" that scares me the most is my current employer. They're working me to death.

and you're not a charlatan with your word salad rambling posts?

Yes, you make a scientific claim that he croaks like a frog and then deduce from that that he is a nitwit. Could it just be that you're envious that he's in a powerful position and you ain't?

Yeah, so people are complaining that Trudeau is "effeminate"? Haha, so they need a Type A personality tough guy like Trump? I have bad news for you homophobes. It won't be long before a Trans becomes president somewhere.

who the heck is Ricardo Cabezas? yeah, the whole "jesus loves you" thing is a scam. Jesus probably thinks we're a bunch of a-holes, but you can't put that in a religious book.

Trick question: How many blocked members do you need to have before admitting that there might be something wrong with YOU?

There is a lot of (arguably -- which I won't argue too much) FAKE and/or misleading science regarding protein intake. For instance, too much protein is bad for the kidneys .... when in likelihood, most people are probably not getting enough protein. As with all health matters, it requires sifting through both sides of the argument and it's complicated and hard work, so most people give up fairly quickly and just take in the first information they find.
