  1. Serious to whom? It may be interesting to some to know about the universe, but most will not care or be affected in any way by such knowledge.
  2. People are, IMO, too afraid to admit that they know sod all about the universe, or how it was created, so they seize on any plausible scenario to believe in. Sort of like imagining that there are more than 2 genders. They want it to be true, so they believe in any old theory that supports their druthers. BTW, it's going to be an unwelcome shock to a few on here if science proves that God created the universe.
  3. But but but, they don't have any proof that multiple universes do not exist. Human science is IMO too primitive to prove or disprove almost everything about our universe, and just guessing. I guess it keeps them in employment.
  4. Only thing I know about this is that Thai doctors will know what it is. I don't understand why the OP is posting about it instead of at the hospital. It's not like they cost a lot in LOS.
  5. Far as I know there was only negotiation or invasion on offer. I'm agog to know what other solutions were on offer that you know about.
  6. WOW. Corruption laid bare. I guess netanyahu snr knows he's in for it once the conflict is over, so exploiting it while he can.
  7. and yet the "leaders" of the west, while crying foul on a certain other country, seem to be the 3 monkeys when it comes to israeli actions in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon- see no evil, hear no evil etc. It's hardly credible that they don't know exactly what israelis are doing, as it's all on tv.
  8. If any want to force Thais to wear crash helmets, why stop there? no comments on the appalling road design and lack of maintenance or even cleaning, no demands for them to wear a minimum of gloves ( only riders I saw wearing gloves were m'bike taxi drivers ), but preferably full body armour, and of course, not a whisper about fining parents that allow young children to ride m'bikes and especially with 4 of their friends on board, or the one in the OP, carrying a baby while riding one handed, as I saw myself on occasion. Why stop there anyway? Lets turn Thailand into another western <deleted> hole that we couldn't wait to get away from. Just don't mind the violence and crime that comes with it.
  9. The country is not free from state control, as evidenced by strict laws (we cannot discuss), defamation laws, and regulations on public behaviour, which highlight significant government oversight. None of which affected me in any significant way, unlike in the west where I am compelled to fence my swimming pool to protect bad parent's children, can't smack my naughty child and where wokeness is woven into the culture. While Thai people take pride in their cultural identity, it’s inaccurate to claim they universally reject Western influence. Sadly, Thais seem to have embraced all the worst aspects of western society including sugar and some incursion of wokeness. Thankfully they have not succumbed to allowing foreign ownership of land by individuals, or taking much if any interest in the western obsession with over regulation. improvement in safety culture will not impact 'Thai culture' as you see it. In your opinion. In mine it's the thin end of the wedge. Start with forcing Thais to wear a crash helmet and it ends with a western clone.
  10. Not often that I put someone that doesn't insult me personally into ignore, but I'll make an exception for you.
  11. Only loser is you and all the rest that voted for loser Harris. 😪
  12. You didn't post any proof of that, so it's just loser BS.
  13. Having seen her interview, I'll give her benefit of the doubt till proven otherwise. People do change as they grow older.
  14. Seems to be a US/ Kurd thing, if we remember how Bush stabbed them in the back after encouraging them to rebel against Saddam and then abandoning them to Saddam's revenge.
  15. I get the impression that Trump doesn't care much about anyone not an American. Perhaps that is a good thing for Americans. I doubt the average American is in favour of being the world's policeman.
  16. Don't know if you are being facetious or serious, but if rappers words are indicative of their opinion of women I doubt he cares much beyond his own benefit. NB. I am not familiar with his words, just rappers in general, as I unfortunately overhear on occasion.
  17. More like they have no interest in yet another prominent person being accused by someone with profit to gain.
  18. I have no idea as to Jay Z's innocence or guilt, but on that I agree. IMO it's a travesty that the accused is identified without a conviction, while the accuser, who may be lying, is granted anonymity.
  19. Not everyone considers it to be anti semitism, and it's likely that a lot of people do not consider what was said to be anti semitism.
  20. Good luck with that. I'm not religious, but that has as much chance of happening as Netanyahu and the Iranian leader singing Kumbaya together around the campfire. Just who would enforce such a dictat?
  21. Agree 100%. I heard that the number of air attacks was much higher than that. Israel has unilaterally violated the agreement it had with Syria. https://www.timesofisrael.com/un-slams-violation-of-1974-disengagement-deal-as-israel-acts-in-syria-buffer-zone/ UN slams ‘violation’ of 1974 Syria disengagement deal as Israel acts in buffer zone
  22. Well, he is hardly going to celebrate with German left wingers, is he! Seems to me that all the Euro liberals hate Trump, you know, the ones that have done such a bad job that right wing parties are putting them out of a job.
  23. Not saddened, but puzzled that people have not yet seen him for what he is, especially when he and his wife came out so strongly for the IMO worst candidate for POTUS in my lifetime.
  24. Expect the cheery posts about Russia losing to dry up when Russia wins ( when Trump stops it and Russia gets to keep what it has ).
