  1. Trump is actually acting quicker than Hitler did.
  2. I'm surprised that you haven't connected this to Israel yet.
  3. The majority of Americans correctly understand that the responsibility for the shutdown is the fault of the party of Trump.
  4. The maga fascists continue to try to gaslight us by saying they're not in a fascist movement.
  5. Yeah be sure to go the link. Some are much worse than the one I posted.
  6. I prefer a leader that doesn't post memes of himself portrayed as a King dumping tons of diarrhea from a plane on a crowd of his own citizens just for peacefully protesting.
  7. Aryan Nation 2.0. Not fake news. Not AI. This is really happening. Trolling? The Labor Department is a government agency that is supposed to serve ALL Americans. You can troll on X. It's way beyond trolling.

  8. Trump is leading Americans off a cliff. Please take him off our hands!
  9. Jomtien isn't Pattaya. Most retirees are going to prefer the "suburban" vibe of Jomtien to Pattaya.
  10. Yeah but with 99 percent fewer amenities than Jomtien.
  11. That isn't even enough to be HOMELESS in the U.S.! Also that particular video is a few years old. Vagabond guy would say 1000 is the bare minimum for Jomtien now.
  12. Proving yet again -- the most corrupt president in American history.
  13. We should leave the door WIDE OPEN for another IMPEACHMENT.
  14. I do agree that some of Vagabond Awake's opinions are quirky at best, but as a subscriber of several years I think that overall there is a lot of value in his channel. But it helps a lot to know where he is coming from so you can filter his views better. He started his world travel journey at a time when most of his wealth was wiped out by the market, so he had no choice but to become remarkably expert at frugality abroad to make his new life possible. He was also not near pension or social security age but he does have a rental property for income in the U.S. So while the focus of the brand might seem to be only the "cheap" space for both retirees and slow travellers, etc. in reality there is alot more to it. Because of so much slow travel for so many years, he does have deep knowledge about a very wide range of destination information that is rare and provides value to share. Basically almost everywhere all over the world that most western people would ever consider moving to. While personally I have travelled to a lot of places, I would never have the perspective to make comparisons with the authority of that channel. Also he always covers that more typical non frugality expats are more common than his approach, but still even spending a lot more, of course the places he picks generally provide much more bank for buck return than back in the west. As I said before, I disagree with him featuring Vietnam for retirement and I understand why he does that based on his POV. But I think most of the destinations he picks make quite a bit of sense, and quite often they are places that I have been. Obviously I agree with him that Jomtien is underrated largely because of the Pattaya sex tourism stigma, and belongs at least among a rough group of best specific retire abroad destinations in the world. If not as high as 4th certainly in a higher tier. As far as Chiang Mai not being on his top 15 list, you can't ignore the burning season issue there.
  15. There is no way that comment is serious, right?
  16. What a total moron. Embarasing to have him as DOD head to all decent Americans.
  17. Your obvious fondest wish is the destruction of Israel.
  18. Yep.
  19. Four part Italian series focused on the police investigations to find a true story serial killer of copulating young couples in cars over many years. The tone was very different from Anglo and Scandanavian approaches to crime stories. I was intrigued with the cultural differences about how the police went about trying, emphasis on trying, to find the monster. The Monster of Florence (2025 miniseries) - Wikipedia
  20. The 2005 movie A History of Violence caught my attention from one of those "best movies" lists. I thought it was damn good and think it still would have wide appeal to those that don't need to only watch current stuff.
