Wait! The new upcoming Thai civil partnership law MAY allow being treated as married for visa purpose. Not saying it will, but not sure yet. I recently read that same sex married two foreigners WILL be able to apply for marriage and retirement extensions as one joint application so that's a good sign.

Really? My information says that the change will allow foreign same sex couples to apply JOINTLY for retirement and marriage extensions. That would be a <deleted>' big deal.

I think you need to pay for time worked regardless. I've heard similar stories from business owners here quite often.

What else could he do? An argument for paying with cash.

You should probably cut the Enalapril 5 in half then.

Russians returning to Jomtien? Aw shucks.

Just read between the lines.

There is no connection between filing tax returns and that form. It's about whether Social Security thinks you live abroad which you are required to tell them if you do.

Yep. Me too.

Introducing Ron DeSantis. He's the poster child for weaponizing this

It's impossible to have a balanced and rational discussion on these matters. Representation of minorities in media is a good thing. It is progress Now that the white nationalist right wing culture warriors have hijacked the word woke from black culture legitimate criticisms and mockery of objectiveky excessive stuff has fully blended into full on racism, homophobia, bigotry etc. Most people are in their bubbles. A middle path is impossible. There are some voices of such a middle path such as Bill Maher though.

Woke's origin was in black culture and has nothing to do with the meaning you obviously think. All woke is now is an attack word of white resentment etc. right wing culture wars.

Obsession Broken record

That ship had sailed long ago.

What is the name of the show? Why are you obsessed with othering gay people as abnormal?

I'm sure that you would have similar attack rants ready for ANY democrat that might contend. As a former Californian though, I don't see California as a model for the future state either. Newsom was very good as a pioneer major politician taking action for marriage equality. Maybe he is rather a sleaze ball but that doesn't seem to be stopping DeSantis. I noted you used the word cuck. I would be embarrassed to use such a ridiculous alt right code word.

There are roughly two Americas now. The states with total, near total, or very restrictive access and the states with normal restrictions as before Roe vs. Wade was murdered by the radical right wingers on the scouts There is no national debate about a compromised system. It's silly to waste time here arguing academic stuff about an ideal balanced policy. The real life action is basically those in favor of abortion access trying to help women in the forced birth states, and those in the forced birth states trying to make things even more restriction including fascist efforts to try to prevent or criminalize traveling to the access states. Similar model to slavery times. There is also a national movement to make fetuses persons federally which would instantly ban all abortions in all states. Which proves the forced birth movement is not about states rights. Their ultimate final solution is a federal one.

The "info" in the OP is obviously FALSE. Old guys, don't get upset by this. SIMPLY IGNORE.

Yes and no. I really hate this movement started by the radical right wingers to use SNITCH LAWS like this to threaten financial penalties to such a wide group of penalty. Most notoriously the DeSantis Don't Say Gay law and the Texas abortion snitch-a-rama for dollars. That said, if it's happening, and it is happening, why should the right wing be only benificiary? But I really really don't like this trend and wish it had never started.

Fighting fire with fire. Bang bang! Methinks Newsom is running for president.

Currently enjoying Mare of Easttown

Just stop it with the cynical diversionary games. Obama's campaign rhetoric has absolutely nothing to do with the January 6 violent coup attempt to illegally keep trump in power.

Absolutely.

I predict four months.

He won't get the max. First time offender.
