Very much so, believing that using the standard Hitler trope for demonizing Trump is new, clever, and extremely powerful.🤣 Just a standard cliché.

So I did during COVID. Added TRX knockoff, treadmill. Only two dumbbells needed. Isometric leg (leg raises) and back exercises (hyperextension and revers) off the bed.🙂 Stayed in good shape. Added a side stepper recently. May go back to that at some point.

Averages do, reflecting more arteriosclerosis, no comfort there. The standard recommended ranges for all ages have moved down a notch. In 2017, new guidelines from the American Heart Association, the American College of Cardiology, and nine other health organizations lowered the numbers for the diagnosis of hypertension (high blood pressure) to 130/80 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) and higher for all adults. The previous guidelines set the threshold at 140/90 mm Hg for people younger than age 65 and 150/80 mm Hg for those ages 65 and older. --Reading the new blood pressure guidelines In particular, older men should take note of this new health standard. The new guidelines state that 70% to 79% of men ages 55 and older are now classified with hypertension. Those who were previously considered healthy may now fall within the elevated categorization. --Updated Blood Pressure Recommendation for Senior Health Care Fits, as only 12% in the USA are metabolically healthy.

Lots of such vids appearing all the time. Selective blindness on your part, I guess.

Combined with i-need-attentionitis.

Irreparable in that location. Only choice is pull out the tooth, leave space.

It's just all so complicated, the idea that two other kinds of ID--Thai ID--could sometimes be used in lieu of one's passport, so obviating the need to carry it.🙂 But then, after laborious ratiocination, only to arrive at the triumphant conclusion that if one doesn't have either alternative ID, a passport must indeed suffice.

Proved my point.🤣

It can "be made to happen" with a different property owner, including yourself, DUH.

Silly blanket statement that "it's needed." I pointed that it's not--necessarily. OBVIOUSLY, if you don't have a pink card, then you can't use a pink card. Did you ask the OP whether it's impossible that he can get a pink card, and why? But, based on experience a couple of years ago, I think a Thai DL can be used, and that should be given a try. (OH--for chrissakes, bring the passport too as backup. 'Course, some overstayers may have lost their passports.) How much more mileage do you need outta this silly belaboring the obvious?

Different Chinese woman.

Na. Brits.

Yup. A Thai DL can be used in some cases, like for depositing cash OTC per the OP, and at the PO. ID requirements for bank deposits have been around a while and discusses previously on the forum. Nothing really new here.

Mine didn't fall out of a tree, either. I made it happen.

No, I really don't, and never do, except when taking a flight or visiting Immigration.

Silly exaggeration. I can take money out over the counter w/ bankbook and pink card at my bank. Much more convenient, passports stays safely at home.

Not all foreigners wish to carry their passports. DL or pink card, much more convenient.

They can own a property themselves. But typically they get owners to cooperate w/ TM30s, so they can find a way or move where an owner will cooperate. Living here a long time usually means moving to different residences.

The foreigners who've lived here even longer should be able to get one if they follow all the procedures. For money deposit at the counter, a Thai DL might suffice. Oh--not all foreigners can get one. 🙂

So we've invoked our fave rhetorical trope: the Perpetual Thailand Death Spiral identified decades ago by astute forum Economists and writers of letters to newspaper editors, when the GDP was about 5 times smaller.

And when you've lived here even longer, you'll realize that a pink card will suffice in lieu of your passport for all sorts of things, which is much less of a deal. So that's what I use, mostly.

Just another windup that will go this way:
