  1. Thaksin Calls for Tax Cuts to Boost Thai Banking Liquidity Thaksin calls for measures to make the obscenely rich and wealthy, richer and wealthier on the backs of the poor and impoverished. There - fixed it!
  2. I have a gas bottle in my kitchen. Most homes in Thailand have a gas bottle in the areas where they cook. In the entire 17 years I've lived here, I've never hear of a gas bottle spontaneously exploding. Can you break your own contract? Well kick them out. Best of luck finding another tenant.
  3. Have any of you felt lost in Thailand at some point in your adventure living here? No.
  4. Bag the food and just drink vodka.
  5. Sure you can.
  6. Didn't Prawit learn anything from Prayut. Here's the way to handle reporters. "Talk to the hand!"
  7. Not a thing will happen to Prawit. In Thailand two-tiered system of justice, he is "Teflon" and untouchable. It anything happens it will be an apology and a wai at the most. Now if you, I, or any common Thai did what he did? Jail-time and fines!
  8. Over half the posts (like maybe 70%) offered up by FB aren't from friends or family but links to people and organizations I've never heard of and have no interest in. However they will also present loads of "soft porn" of reels with scantily clad, mostly Asian women and friend suggestions of people I have no interest in. Whatever AI FB is using, it's as dumb as a box of hammers. The only reason I use it is to keep in touch with family back in the US.
  9. Nah - there's still three months. They'll roll out the Bird Flu in another month and The Chicken Plague will be upon us ("Katy Bar The Doors!")
  10. I'm sure there will be a New & Improved mRNA Monkeypox "vaccination" produce within the next 100 days and given full FDA EUA approval without adequate testing or long-term testing after a brief period of "thorough" testing by the manufacturers of the vaccine and rushed to market to save humanity from the Monkey Plague (God save us all 🙏). That fact that there is a Monkeypox/Smallpox vaccination (vaccinia) already is probably of little consequence. That fact that most adults my age have already been innoculated using a vaccinia virus based vaccine will be overlooked as we are told that "all humans on the Earth must get Monkeypox Vaccinations or risk dying a horrible death!" What they won't tell you is that the current Monkeypox vaccination is a combination Monkeypox/Smallpox vaccination and contains neither Monkeypox or Smallpox viruses but live, non-replicated vaccinia virus.
  11. For the same reason that they are in my Facebook feeds. Welcome to Neo-liberalism. We'll shower you with sex, but don't dare to criticize LBGT+. In fact, don't dare criticize us for showering you sex.
  12. Hey - I liked Chiang Mai without tourists. Yeah! Shut it all down.
  13. If anyone in my family dies I'm not going back to the US. If I die I don't want anyone to come over here. If anyone is going to travel - do it to visit a live person! I'd be ecstatic to actually see a family member travel over here to visit while I'm still kicking. I posted elsewhere - A cremation should not set you back more than maybe 10,000 THB - 30,000 tops here in Thailand. When you're dead, you're dead. You "need" a wooden box and a hot oven. And that costs next to nothing here. You don't need a fancy funeral. Your family can have memorial services in your home country. You are gone! All of the expense discussed by the OP is really unnecessary. I've already discussed this with my wife and family. I find it odd that people travel overseas and then think they are immune to death. Think that through before you travel and plan accordingly. Sound harsh. Apologies. But to this day I simply don't understand Westerner's morbid fascination with death and the equally fascinating manner they deal with it. And then add on top of it a load of unnecessary debt. Nope - I don't understand.
  14. I have no desire at all to leave the country just to get rid of a TM6.
  15. Ya got me beat by a year and change.
  16. I dunno. Ask my IO who wanted it the last times I've submitted 90 days in person. Online hasn't worked for me since my last extension of stay. If I ask the IO, "Do you know why online isn't working," the answer is always, "No."
  17. Round 2. And not even an airborne pathogen. But mask up to be safe!
  18. 45 days
