  1. There was a day. Nowadays it doesn't do much of anything for me. I enjoyed it back in the day.
  2. Due diligence and don't trust anyone. That sucks.
  3. Well, it started with Biden revoking President Trump's security clearance in 2021. It was a historical first. "Pathetic?" Yeah, I agree, but Biden let that genie out of the bottle, Trump is just using the precedent to send a giant "F-U." Can't blame him. It should have never happened in 2021. Up next - Lawfare: The other genie that the Biden administration, the Biden DOJ, and the Biden endorsed Leftist AGs in blue states let out of the bottle. No stuffing that genie back in the bottle now. "Incoming! Look out below....!" Let the chips fall where they may.
  4. Thank goodness I've given up riding motorcycles due to my age. The prices are just getting stupid.
  5. Could have bought a 650cc big bike for 250K THB or 80K more maybe 10 years back. 170K is damn steep for a 250cc.
  6. I guess she did. None too smart I think. Probably never wanted kids anyway and it was just a gesture wrapped up as a protest.
  7. Quid Pro Quo is a b***h. Biden and his DOJ should never have opened Pandora's Box. But now that it's open, their ain't no closing it. Read 'em and weep. Turn-about is fair play. https://apnews.com/article/trump-biden-security-clearance-revoked-be82cd4f185f01404718fcc69e074fbf
  8. Dude's not going to make it to 31.
  9. This is Thailand, not America. And I'm a old school classical liberal Leftie - conservative "yes," MAGA "no."
  10. Like Germany is trying to do to the AfD, I wonder when the Tories and Labor get together and try to ban the Reform UK party in order to "Save democracy from 'far-right extremism'." In the meanwhile the Reform UK party attempts to save the UK from woke authoritarianism bordering on totalitarianism. The voters are in revolt and although not a majority, a significant quorum of voters are rejecting the status quo the the status quo is besides itself in fear and loathing.
  11. Talk about "own goals." The radical Left sterilizes themselves while conservatives have children and build families. Easy to see where this ends in the long run.
  12. For every 1 South Korean illegally teaching in Thailand, there are probably 100 Thais working illegally in South Korea.
  13. Fyi - USAID has about nothing to do with actual foreign aid and everything to do with US foreign policy power projection in some of the most unsavory manners possible. Essentially it's a well of dark money and unaccountablity. Having it fall under the State Department and reassessing its mission to align with interests of the United States as a whole as an accountable, audited agency under the Department of State is probably where this eventually needs to go. For those who wish money to go to good causes, find a charity which uses the 90% or more of their donations to fund the projects they sponsor. This nonsense about the US being the world's Sugar Daddy needs to end and American citizens need to come first.
  14. Are you an Alien? Are you "bob?" Sorry...rhetorical question.
  15. I'm not anti-Democrat. I was a Democrat like Tulsi Gabbard, JFK Jr, Jimmie Dore, Matt Taibbi and a host of other who have dumped the Democrat party. They are patently nuts. I hope over the next four year they dump the extremist out of the party, look to the younger members of the party, and try to find the middle left again.
  16. If Jennings had tossed out an 80% issue of his own and the CNN hosts would have reflexively argued the 20% side. He could have easily proved his issue. But? He's right. This insightful.
  17. Lord almighty - ignore him. He's worse than bob smith.
  18. S-a-t-i-r-e. I'm so beyond attempting to explain reality to anyone that I immediately default to satire, parody, and sarcastic caricature. I appreciate you still have the fortitude to explain to these people that Ukraine isn't a democracy and isn't winning. Don't read too much into what I write about the Ukraine conflict.
  19. Unlike Ukraine where most of the 18 to 60 year old Ukrainian men have bravely stepped forward to fight and die on the Eastern Front for Freedom, Liberty, and Democracy!
  20. Yep, the Ruble's Rubble, the Russian economy is in tatters, Russian shops have empty shelves, and you can't find an egg anywhere in Moscow, and Russia is launching missiles made out of North Korean washing machines which only manage to land on their own troops. Nothing to worry about, Putin will see the writing on the wall and immediately cave.
  21. Never encountered that either. Go to Shopee and send it to your address COD.
  22. I hope sooner than later. Even my "Boomer" wife is ready for a change lead by the youth of this country.
