  1. I dread seeing American doctors. How many are like this guy: “If your massage table is made of concrete and there’s a moped parked next to it, maybe just stretch and call it a day, bro.” How many massage tables are made of concrete? And I don't want doctors calling me bro.
  2. Really sad seeing the young men developing breasts.
  3. It's all the vaccines they get killing their gut biome.
  4. Getting the medical marijuana prescription in California really lowered my opinion of doctors. They all resemble that doctor in Cannonball Run. The valuable thing is that this skepticism helped me avoid getting a Covid shot. It takes doctors off their pedestal.
  5. Why is this? I'm on my second year of growing in our yard, just a few plants, and they are now teetering on the edge of dying because of spider mites.
  6. I haven't noticed this, but not arguing. Maybe it's the type of weed - I had some old-time Thai cannabis and it made the heat easier to deal with and I was more active, but most of the new stuff they grow just makes my mind sluggish.
  7. They assume you have money stashed away and are also lying about your income.
  8. This would be the only good thing about all of this, if it actually happens. I've had several purchases I've thrown away because they just didn't seem right.
  9. All I know is there are a lot of Muslims in the family I married into and one of them has plowed through a fairly large number of other Muslim women and somehow keeps finding a new one. Girl in her 20s, cute though I've never seen her without a hijab. She shows up with a new friend and we all just accept it.
  10. There's a Muslim lesbian subculture in Bangkok.
  11. I miss the California weed and didn't appreciate it while I was there. In Thailand I've noticed it all seems very similar. However, a few weeks ago at the Highland festival I got an infused "Mike Tyson Round 12" preroll and that was one of the better weed experiences I've had here. I never notice a taste in weed, but maybe try the infused products.
  12. I can't find this story on the Thaiger. Are these released before getting posted to that website?
  13. "Shops must keep these records for at least one year to comply with inspections." If they are kept digitally, they will be hacked and published, along with the picture of your passport. Electronic health records have too much potential value to be kept private.
  14. It's like those SSRIs on women burn away their warmth and humanity.
  15. Did I miss something? It seems like today was just more threats to release things, but nothing more.
  16. My theory is that there is organized and paid opposition to weed legalization. I'm guessing they focus-group tested this message and found a sympathetic audience since most people genuinely don't want to cause discomfort in others. That's why they come across as so upset about it - pure manipulation.
  17. I think there's another profession here that attracts many, many more of the type of people you are concerned about.
  18. My favorite shop in southern Bangkok just closed. They had an espresso machine and you could smoke your purchase out back with their provided bongs. Sometimes local kids would show up and play guitar, or you could sit at a table and use their wifi and drink coffee while enjoying the buzz.
  19. My assumption is that it will be easy to get a medical certificate.
  20. What about all the sunglass shops? I live in southern Bangkok and no one wears sunglasses, hardly anyone wears regular glasses even if they need them, and there are maybe seven stores within a few blocks with two employees each "selling" sunglasses.
  21. This is especially sad to see in the men.
  22. Oh, I just looked. It was Mountain King Brandy. Not sure why I was thinking whisky.
  23. I think this is true - the cultural palette just isn't here.
  24. I tried some a few weekends ago for the first time and couldn't finish the cup. I found it very sweet and syrupy.
