    the more Thailand aligns with China, the less American feminism it gets.

    When was the last time feminism caused you even a single iota of grief?

     

    They got us abortion. And I did shag straight through the 70's and 80's without fear of fatherhood.

     

    Thanks, Ladies!

    I have been sorely disappointed in the current social disintegration in the USA. 

    It's the death throes of the no longer remotely revelant, now outright obstructive boomers -partic the white male segment who were born on second base, but act they built the whole ball park.

     

    Please get out of the way if you can't lend a hand, because the times, they are a-changing.

     

    Like you, I am glad to watch these dopey mastodons thrash around in their self-made tarpits straight into oblivion from afar -in a gentle, still alive place where a doctor visit costs me $20 at the high end.

     

    Whether it's Biden or Trump (but def more so if it's Trump), the best of us oldies, the volunteers, the givers, the arty types, the doers -are slipping away to the likes of Portugal, Costa Rica and Chiang Mai.

     

    Empathy to the good people stuck back home. But otherwise, let them stew in the angry sewer they insisted on making. Their future is brown (or at least beige) and tough darts if they don't like it.

    Proper  Fish and Chips is made with COLD WATER fish from the Atlantic 

     

     

    100% correct.

     

    Off topic:

    -Buster's in Bangkok hits the mark.

    -My wife was in London recently and never had it before. Hobson's in Soho really rang the bell for her.

  4. Last year, I had to leave CM for two months to dodge the smoke. This year it's 10 weeks. Love CM to death, and I do like to have a block of travel time every year.

     

    But if it edges into 1 one week in every 4 that I have to be gone, that's too disruptive and I'm outa here. Helllloooo Hat Yai.

  5. I compared my divorce to someone (her) kicking a broken Coke machine (me) because -"where's my Cooooke?".

     

    At a certain point, that Coke machine is out of service for good.

     

    No more Coke for my ex. No more Coke for the former Ms. BritManToo. No more Coke for this sad lady. 

     

    But they should all feel free to keep on kicking. Like Elvis, Coke has left the building.

    a old guy with a walking stick looks at me and without warning says " I get chafing between my legs you know " 

     

    I looked up at him ,I had no idea what to say ,just I was shocked 

    Assuming this story isn't made up, like most of them:

     

    Why not use the basic brains that god gave you and toss out something like, "Sorry to hear that, talcum powder is your friend, feel better"?

     

    And yet, in the face of this most elemental of social encounters, you say you were completely stumped and slack-jawed agog.

     

    You say you need "a warning" to discuss chaffing. How does that even work?

    Typically a box shoe room causes dissatisfaction in most people. 

     

     

    Uh-uh. Since I moved next door to my wife -to a veritable shoe box- my happiness has amped up a whole letter grade.

     

    I feel like I have been moving towards a mini-fridge lifestyle my whole life. I don't think I can ever go back to having separate fridge door for a freezer compartment.

    De Niro used to make great movies but now he makes garbage like "the war with grandpa"

    True. His career now reminds me of Bob Hope's at the end of his.

     

    His recent Scorcese film about Indian Tribes (to dull to recall the Moon-based title) had him doing the exact same performance as the last dozen films.

    I told him to watch where he was going. Wearing dark glasses on a dark day. I mean, really.

     

    And that labrador didn't help.

  10. De Niro got some grief in New York Magazine for having his personal assistant drop what she was doing to deliver a martini from Nobu (he's a part-owner).

     

    What person on earth can't make their own martini? It took longer to make the call. Being rich drives you mad. Rich and mega-famous? I'd go off the deep end too.

     

    NY Mag is a good one to add to your daily news trawl -I'd call the politics old-lefty, which is now sort of the middle of the road. Also great only-in-New-York issues like a long read on why 3 bedroom apartments have vanished.

  11. I voted happy to pay my fair share. I use the roads and (so-so) water system, I should contribute something.

     

    In the meantime, I assist Myanmar refugees and tip well.

     

    But with what I pay in the US and what I remit, I'm unlikely to pay a dime, so Khao Soi Noodles all around for the Myanmar Refugees via The Free Bird Cafe in Chiang Mai.

     

    My landlord is a fellow New Yorker, so I'll be paying my rent to him in the states.

    If you think Noem is mental then there's something wrong with you. 

     

     

     

     

    First off, TheBlether is one of the greatest internet names in history.

     

    -But why not just re-home the dog? It's astonishing to me, but the number of people (many of whom are non-lesbian) who want to "rescue" dogs is limitless.

     

    And finally, here's a deeply sad song about a dog taking a bullet that was among Elvis's first recordings -def a weeper.

     

     

  13. What was the problem? How did it all work itself out in the end?

     

    Me: Had a very untrained pitbull dumped on me by a relative (pitbull debate? Start your own thread).

     

    Dumb as a rock, very sweet, 'had a bad habit of forcefully licking visitor's crotches -which is literally a buzz kill from a dog known for dismemberment.

     

    Googled. Found a pitbull rescue organization. Actually found 2, a pitbull bidding war almost ensued. 'Went with The Lesbians -woke or what? 'Gone the next day.

     

    You?

     

    Additional thought: I lived for a long time in England. England is about a 1,000% more humane and evolved in terms of breed dogs than the USA. Prob the rest of Europe too.

  14. .....And then she went on a mafia vendetta killing rampage and also offed her goat, likewise execution-style.

     

    BUT: does her demented ruthlessness actually endear her to MAGA-land?

     

    Very poss. It plays to the myth that lib-ruls are outa touch and "don't understand the hard choices of life on the farm" -actual, unironic quote.

     

    She had an editor, she has political advisors. This was an audition tape for you-know-who.
