Basic decency Good manners Tact and diplomacy Intellectual curiousity Love of learning and reading Compassion Humility Distaste or violence and bullying Opposite of Trump.

Any parent that encourages their child to emulate the behavior of Trump deserves a visit from child protective services.

He's a scumbag which everyone paying attention already knew. With maga cruelty and ignorance is the point. Yet he was indeed voted in. So here we (and the world) are.

You're barking up the wrong tree looking to the embassy. Your social security income is excluded from Thai tax. I don't happen to know the situation with state government pensions so confirm this but think also excluded. So if both are excluded and that's all the income that you remit, you will have no need to ever get a Thai Tax ID or ever to file.

It depends on what exactly are the sources of your U.S. income that you remit. You may indeed owe Thai tax or you may not.

Yes I do use Line occasionally for restaurants not on the others. I have found the price on Line generally higher because of a scarcity of promotions on food and delivery.

Yes. My Kbank card is visa.

To add about the scan QR to pay option if you want to tip you can add that to the amount due so.you don't need to pay cash for the tip either.

Also interesting. Of course when I called BB they could only speak for their bank and not debit cards for all Thai banks. So I'm wondering why your Kbank works and mine doesn’t. I have one maybe clue. Recently I signed up for youtube premium and needed to use a Thai card and there are monthly charges. I wanted to use kbank but failed with their Activation for online shopping process. But I was able to activate my BB card for that. I suppose I should look into my kbank situation again.

You know a lot of the people that voted for him did so for the anticipated entertainment he would bring. Yes, such people deserve the worse that he will bring, but unfortunately the worse that he will bring will impact everyone.

Explain to me how this mahout isn't just being used as a convenient scapegoat for the sins of an entire industry? No need to reexamine the entire industry if you can pin it on one presumably not powerful man.

You ain't whistling Dixie when you say there is something very very wrong. The income inequality situation is indeed atrocious but the truth is that neither party really addresses that, but at least the democrats try to take baby steps while the republicans work overtime to make it much worse. As far as American "democracy" stands now, it's basically become a neon flashing advertisement for the tragic global trend towards autocracy.

Biden broke his promise not to use his constitutional pardoning power for his son. That did expose him to at least one undeniable lie, but on the other hand, most human beings do understand that most any father would use such power if they had it, and he had it.

I would make no such predictions, especially considering Trump's rapidly accelerating mental and physical decline.

This will be an interesting test of just how far this supreme court will bend over to serve master Trump.

Spelling police strikes again.

Well going to war is supposed to involve an act of congress, but that has been ignored by U.S. presidents for a very long time. A hostile annexation of Greenland would be an act of war against NATO ally Denmark. As far as the funding for wars, that does need buy in from the house.

Alaska. Tallest mountain in North America.

Well I'm thinking in terms of our human species which I have a love - hate relationship with.

Update -- yes had a Grab driver accept paying by scanning his QR code (to pay with Bangkok Bank account). Does that mean that all or most all Grab drivers would do the same? It seems probably so as they all have to have functioning phones to do the job at all. Also all Panda drivers? I guess so. It's weird that neither say anything on their apps about this option. Paying cash is not the same thing as scanning a code. Tops Online for example gives that as option to choose when ordering. Maybe these apps don't want to commit to obligating all their drivers to do so. That said, I still want True Money wallet for two reasons -- It often takes longer to get a driver to accept the order when cash is selected. Bigger chance of cold food. It could even lead to rejected orders with no driver found. I'm in the frequent order promotion clubs on both apps. The savings especially on Grab are quite significant. The only way to keep paying those modest dues is to have an online payment option on file.

His dictator instincts drive him to lead by FEAR both at home and abroad. But at the end of the day, he's a FAKE strong man.

It's of course a potentially great tool but based on history and human nature, it seems inevitable that humans have designed a tool for their own extinction. Humanity has dodged doing that so far with nuclear weapons but add in AI and I don't like the odds.

This is the kind of juvenile trolling behavior that you think is desirable from a US president?

You've got repeating all the anti West Kremlin talking points down to a fine art. Vladimir thanks you.

Greenland does have significance to U.S. national security. Greenland and Denmark were already friendly to the U.S. How wise is it to threaten friendly NATO allies with unwanted annexation and possibly using military force. If it's US policy to feel the need for more cooperation with Greenland and Denmark, why not approach them with respect as allies instead of threats?
