Everyone interprets reality through their own pre-conceived lens. The article states "another frightening step toward dictorship" ... and that's exactly what a lot of people love to hear since that's what you believe already. But then the article also points out that Trump considers the judge to be "crooked" and also mentions one reason he was elected was to fight illegal immigration and the judge is interfering. Engaging in a power struggle with a judge doesn't mean it's a step towards an evil dictatorship or the complete breakdown of democracy. He genuinely believes that he's doing something positive so he's getting a bit rough around the edges to get what he wants. He's unorthodox. He's passionate about going after what he wants. Maybe even plays a little dirty. But that doesn't mean it's heading toward a path of evil dictatorship. Maybe the judge is an ahole or on the wrong side of the fence.

I saw a foreigner the other day doing a whatchamacllit ... a wheelie? He was ahead of the pack when the light was red. Then raced off and went on one wheel. Is that even legal?

I'm living in the wrong part of the country, I think. I was too lazy to get on a plane to Chiang Mai. You never saw guys whose entire faces are tattooed, I guess. Lucky you. You chose a better part of the country to live in.

some farangs looks scary. need to be cautious. never know when one might start acting crazy and attack for no apparent reason.

what else are you going to call a dental place? I guess they could use the word "grin"? smirk maybe?

Ideally, all you need is a grill to grill some meats, a bit of salt and pepper. Maybe make some simple omelets. For fancy dishes, it's best just to go to restaurants once or twice a week. Unless you really enjoy cooking, then go for it.

Some expats staying in condos with pool & gym are paying around 20K Outside gym is 1K per month But pool is a nice perk ... guess you can find a hotel with a day pass for a pool.

Some of the very big Youtubers like Mr Beast are probably not self-made, but probably funded by some large organizations. And some Youtube channels will rot your brain with BS.
