First of all, White Lotus is a great series. Do watch it. In the current Thailand set White Lotus season 3 probably the most talked about plot line involves "incest" between two brothers. Their story is specific and complicated so certainly wouldn't represent "incest" between brothers in general though. Anyway, you may ask why I put "incest" in quotes in this case? Well, I doubt that sex between brothers is actually incest in the same way it would be between a brother and a sister. Why do I say this? Well, I'm not an anthropologist but I did grow up with a sister and for me the incest taboo felt intensely hard wired. Yes the very idea of anything sexual between us was unthinkable. I won't get into my sister's weird relationship with our male toy poodle as that's another thing entirely. Woof. I didn't have a brother so I can't say whether I personally would have felt the hard wired incest taboo as strongly if I had, but I seriously doubt it. In the gay world gay siblings even twin gay siblings are not extremely rare. Indeed it's considered "hot" openly talked about and of course not an uncommon area of exploration in the X rated industry. Some men even seek threesomes with two brothers. So now we have a very popular pop culture event bringing "incest" out in the open and seemingly presenting their "brotherly love" as representative of incest in general. They're both dudes. Neither could get pregnant as with "real" incest.

They're calling it whiskileaks.

Exactly like the people who predicted smart phones before there were smart phones. That was crazy talk!

What do you expect when you put in rank amateurs whose only qualifications are "looking" the part and blind total loyalty to a demagogic autocratic dear leader type?

The US has joined Russia under traitor Trump so yes it's over.

I would be concerned about 7162 because slow walking that would be a great way for them to cut off expats and under this new regime there is little doubt reinstating benefits is going to become harder and take longer. I had reported before that SS had adjusted their policy to allow people to reinstate cut off benefits because of 7162 not being received over the phone. There is no way that positive change will stand. Making things harder and slower is obviously not about fraud. That's the cover. It's about screwing people that are due benefits. Save more money for the oligarch's tax cuts.

Nothing to do with left or right.

OP is suggesting everyone in Thailand on SS will need to do that. That is definitely misinformation. Some people will probably need to do that such as new claims, audits, etc.

What does the U.S. want to "rule" over the now? The coalition of autocrats? Voting now with North Korea. These are very dark times.

They hate Europe. They hate Canada. But they love Russia. Something is very rotten in this white house.

Yes, which of course is unfair to the undocumented people paying that and it's hardly right for such an important thing as SS so to be helped in that way, but it does paint the absurdity of the maga xenophobes complaining about the undocumented being a burden on that system.

Dumb luck then. Born into a time where we could squander without personal consequence millions of years of stored fossil fuels. So much we didn't earn. We were gifted.

To be clear I think the proper thing to do is to advise to seek professional help for cutters. That definitely indicates a psychological disorder that should be addressed. But there is no way that I believe for one second that people are calling this place saying they are going to commit suicide and getting the response well OK matey but be sure to use a sterile weapon. I think the article insidiously implies that and that is obviously NOT the policy there.

Yes Trump did do that in the state of the union address. Which begs the question yet again. Did Trump know that was a lie or is he simply a total moron that actually believed that? Of course we know that the entire maga fascist brand has learned that they can lie without consequence and it actually helps them. They're eating the cats! They're eating the dogs!

Kinda like the Trump Musk regime lying yet again.
