It's reflected in social constructs. I was watching "The Agency" and the writers of that show had a line where the Russian Federation military was referred to as "The Red Army." So the cold war is all that some people have stuck in their heads. The average plod doesn't follow Geopolitics or foreign affairs and doesn't have a clue.

What the "I Hate Russia" plods don't grasp: If a semi-trunk of drones had been parked outside of Whitman and Minot AFB and targeted B52-H and B1 nuclear capable bombers, what do you morons believe the result would be? Are you really that dense? My guess: 1. Unified screams of "Terrorism" by "Bad Actors" probably "The Russians" and "The Chinese" but maybe "The Iranians" or "North Koreans." 2. US declares DEFCON 1. 3. Declares martial law as the FBI and other agencies go into full panic mode. 4. The "Special People" in government and corporations go underground. 5. Preemptive nuclear strikes on all of the "Bad Actors" and their friends too. Of course as the nukes go off, the Asean Now faithful would rejoice in delight. Well, until martial law is declared in Thailand and foreigners start to be rounded up, and the emergency services do what they can to protect the public from the fallout raining in from China and whoever else got nuked. Asean Now "I Hate Russia" faithful: <--- laugh emojis and 👎 <-- thumbs down emojis galore.

In Thailand posting on Asean Now.

The Russian haters will be gleeful about this. However, this puts us on the brink of a nuclear war this evening. It will be interesting to see what shakes (thermonuclear-wise) in the next 24 hours. Russian nuclear doctrine calls for a nuclear counter-attack as would a similar strike on US nuclear assets. Expect some kind of very bright fireworks tonight at least in Ukraine. My guess is the US/NATO just got the world war that their insane Neo-con want so badly. Hope we're all here tomorrow. Even better - I hope this is fake news. If not? As Doug Adam's dolphins said in A Hitchhikers Guide To The Universe as the Earth is about to be destroyed, "So long and thanks for all the fish." https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2025/06/01/russia-ukraine-zelensky-putin-war-latest-news5291/ https://kyivindependent.com/enemy-bombers-are-burning-en-masse-ukraines-sbu-drones-hit-more-than-40-russian-aircraft/ https://www.newsweek.com/ukraine-drone-attack-engels-air-base-nuclear-2047659 https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/ukraine-attacked-airfield-near-engels-strategic-bomber-base-russian-officials-2025-03-20/

That's because reality is that the UK government welcomes them with open arms.

The same people who welcome them with open arms and welfare check also understand that they pose a national security risk to the country - and yet? Protest and say anything about the influx and risk being thrown into prison for "hate-speech" especially if you are from Celtic or Anglo ancestry. The Oxford pounces who run your country know they are running it into the ground and turning it into a third-world <deleted>hole...like Paris and other parts of France. I haven't quit figured out their end-game. Neo-feudalism? Maybe. Wait to see how many Lords and Ladies fine convert to Islam in the next few years. Order Out Of Chaos.

...or Tuco?

I'm rapidly beginning to think that Trump is losing his marbles. Not in the way that Biden was cognitively impaired and then protected by staffers who then ran the country for him via Auto-Pen. Trump is still functionally capable of standing at a podium and answering questions, and then leave the podium without getting lost or falling down. With Biden, that was just a national embarrassment and will be a blight on US history as he made the US the laughing stock of the world. No - Trump is becoming unhinged in his own way. He looks functionally capable, but then he opens his mouth and it's obvious he doesn't have a clue as to what is really happening in the world. If his staff IS giving him briefings regarding the Geo-Political landscape he is either forgetting what he is told or his hubris is creating a fairy-tale reality in his head. One day he wants to be the Nobel Peace Prize recipient for ending the Ukraine war, the next he's green-lighting genocidal bombing campaigns, and the next he seems to have no knowledge of what happened a day ago, or even 2 hours ago. Much like Biden, his "reality" of the world around him is whatever the last staffer who talked with him said it was, and then he parrots that position. I don't particularly believe he has a unique opinion or has an idea what is occurring in the world around him. And his responses to questions are becoming more child-like, narcissistic, megalomaniacal, self-aggrandizing and unhinged. He looks functional unlike Biden, but he's acting literally psychotic, swinging from one extreme to another, like maybe his missed a dose of lithium. I find rants like the one below to be disturbing. Then flipping back and forth on issues isn't the behavior of a world leader. It's a good way to bumble into a third World War. Not that the Neo-cons wouldn't like that, I'm sure they would. I just don't want to wake up to find Trump is playing all of Peter Seller's parts in Dr. Strangelove plus the role of Brigadier General Jack D. Ripper. We are rapidly moving from "strategic ambiguity" to "the dude has lost his marbles." Even his stanchest supporters should be concerned.

Is This The Beginning of The End of The American Empire? Yeah, but not for the reasons you think. That video won't help ya.

The Harris campaign spent $1 Billion dollars and were in debt afterward. If AOC runs for president, she'll end up doing the exact things that she is bi*ching about. Just a bunch of hypocrites. All this "Oliarchy" BS as she and Bernie fly around in private planes. They are all scoundrels.

There is a lesson here. Stop taking taxis and use Bolt and Grab.

Good for her.

Fluids and chicken soup. Rest. Get well.

"Pip pip old man. Britain simply brought civilization to the heathens and savages. Gave them all a jolly good whipping I'd say. Civilized the lot of those sorry bastards I'd say. Ah, pining for the good old days now. Now we just send BoJo to show those Cossack bastards a thing or two. Well - jolly good. Tally ho!!!"

Oh, the howls if the shoe was on the other foot. Imagine the headline: Russia to unleash army of hackers on Starmer

Your big fat brown envelopes will be delivered shortly by courier.

Exactly - doctors get their cut, pharmacies get their cut, Big Pharma gets their cut. It's a con. $$$Cha-Ching$$$ How much does it cost to see a doctor in the US now. A couple hundred bucks or more if you're paying out of pocket. Free if you're an illegal alien.

I don't normally hear of Thais using aspirin. If over medicating kids was an issue, then Thailand would have prescription laws like the West.

Essentially you need to take eight 81mg aspirins to equal a standard dose of two 325mg aspirins.

Somebody hasn't gotten laid in awhile. "Grrrrr!" Here's a relevant post for ya! "Grrrrrr!!!"

It's not about overdosing. It's about Dengue HEMORRHAGIC fever. That key word is hemorrhagic. If your taking a blood thinner when you get Dengue you an literally bleed to death - like through your skin and internal organs. If you get Dengue though, and your on 81mg aspirin for blood thinning, that should be one of the first things out of your mouth when you consult a doctor - and if you have Dengue, you are wise to be under the care of a doctor

Yep - you gotta go to a hospital or clinic. After your initial visit you can probably get a clinic to mail it to you when you want it, but it will cost you. The days of getting 81mg aspirin at the local pharmacy is gone. Sucks, but protecting people from themselves always sucks. The same with trying to get Pseudoephedrine. They can't allow the plebs to have it because they'll combine their handful of pills together and cook up a batch of methamphetamine for sure, you know, just like Walter White. It's effective for sinus congestion but it's next to impossible to obtain. Even the doctors will get in your way. "We Can't give you 10 tablets - you might cook up some yaba." Why? meth it readily available on the street and any village and it's cheap if I wanted yaba. I don't. I just would like to breath when I'm congested. If you have a Thai GF or wife, have them get if from the local amphur government hospital. Get to know the doctors. They'll just give you a bag full and it's a 30 THB charge for your lady-friend. I've got a bunch of it as my wife gets it every time she visits the hospital for her regular appointments.

Baloney. If you ride without a helmet? Fine. Your head. No doubt you are a very very safe driver, 'eh? Bet you don't wear a seat-belt either and use the same excuse. Right?
