save the frogs

is this your halloween thread, bob?

There is a risk that your health will deteriorate when you work too much. Future generations may work a lot less and retire much earlier with AI doing the heavy lifting. But then they will need to learn how to "survive". Too much free time could lead to drug abuse, etc...

Gen Z people faking mental disorders on TikTok Or maybe some of them are not faking?

looks like all your threads have a hidden agenda of some sort.

No the Universe is sentient. But it's beyond the scope of this forum. The topic is Thailand.

Here is a silly karma comment. There's a man that just killed his 6 yr old son. Of course actions like that produce serious karma. Nothing silly about it.

The fast food inside the hospitals and bad dietary advice keeps you dependent on the medications and the for-profit medical system. Not just in Thailand. The West too.

Animal foods high in cholesterol are not the problem. Processed carbs are the problem because they elevetate triglyceride levels.

How did it wreck your life?

For those of you consulting doctors and taking statins, have your doctors scared you off foods high in cholesterol like eggs? You do realize that processed carbs increasing triglyceride levels is the main problem, not foods like eggs, right?

Gamma, I found a Japan Expat Forum for you https://www.expatforum.com/forums/japan-expat-forum-for-expats-living-in-japan.34/

so one of the perks of being a druglord is you get to have 3 thai wives? mickey mouse operation.

But he still seems to think it's a worthy cause, even if there is possible backlash. And given that it's a pharmacy and not a souvenir shop, he has a valid point for taking this stance.

No, the site is not being ruined. Someone who only sees the forum as negative is pretty much the same thing as someone who starts a thread claiming that everything about Thailand sucks. You've lost perspective. The forum has maybe some posters who start a lot of nonsense threads, etc ... but there are also a lot of useful threads. If someone has a health issue, many people share their experiences and knowledge etc .... look carefully at all the threads over the last year and there tons and tons of people posting useful stuff.

it's your opinion that all topics should be strictly about Thailand. but maybe 50% of people would disagree with you.

one more reason to escape to canada and freeze your ass off. to get away from disgruntled old men in thailand.

Good idea. And perhaps consider supplementing with CoEnzyme Q10 as apparently the statins deplete this in the body. Personally, I try to tweak the body with diet and avoid statins.

I have a bargirl Knock Knock joke. Knock Knock? Who's there? It's kinda loud in here. Do you wanna go maybe someplace quieter? I'm on a budget. I can't afford you. I'm not a hooker. Then I really can't afford you.

Gamma does. He's highly competitive. And he will need to step up his game on Japan expat forums. Gamma, you a cat person?

What kind of visa allows you to stay for 20 years, if you don't mind me asking? I thought Japan was very frugal with handing out stays to foreigners. I guess you need to get married to a local to stay long-term?

https://www.axios.com/2019/10/30/lipitor-pfizer-drug-patent-sales-2019 Lipitor, the cholesterol-lowering medication that has become the gold standard of statins, continues to generate roughly $2 billion per year in sales for Pfizer,

Yes, exactly.

Which poster from Scotland are you referring to? Realistically, you're not even in the Top 10 posters on here. And keep in mind that many posters are not regular posters. If they posted regularly, you would easily drop to below the Top 20. And also keep in mind that competition on Japan expat forums is even more fierce. Good luck!

Mauritius has one of the highest GDPs in Africa. And also has 10 and 20 year residence permits, I think.

healthcare in japan must be very expensive? you factored that in?
