In general, that's a progressive thing, yes. However, that girl was raised in the old elitist mindset, and that's a regressive thing. So you have got the old, just packaged new...

Girl, your hands are not centered. Do it again.

Just describe the person exactly the way that person presents itself. In this case: Receding, lanky shoulder length dark hair, fake long eye lashes, two eyes with washed out color. The persons believes it is female while having been assigned XY chromosomes at birth.

Nope, BKK is not striving in the least, never has and never will. I've been here nearly 20 years and student brawls have been going on several times per year - some fatal, some not, with innocent bystanders and without. During Democratic and Military governments. Student brawls, PM 2.5, Road Fatalities... Nothing changes because the same mindset is always in power.

I could see the sleazy parlors adopting a similar system..., just not with stars.

Whether the EC finds for or against the government, one thing's for sure: the Commissioners will be richer than before...

when it is opportune. When it isn't then we don't give a hoot."

That's the ear medicine talking, once that hits the gloves are off. (I missed him..., he was a great contributor to my daily dose of comedy)

I disagree: Earth is not profoundly ill. Earth is just becoming less and less habitable for human civilization, that's all. Life will evolve to adapt to higher temps as it has done numerous times before in Earth's history. Humans will either achieve a workable technical solution, or mutate and adapt, or die out. Earth and Nature are doing just fine, they just won't be humancentric anymore...

New company offered skydiving in Hawaii and they invited me on a familiarization jump, so I would recommend them to tourists. Small airfield on Oahu's Northshore, an even smaller Cessna we had to push onto the field for take off. Inside sitting on the bare floor 2 jumpers (me and GF) strapped to 2 instructors and the cabin was full. Took forever to get to altitude. Went out the door and freefall for a few seconds, then instructor deployed chute. On the way down he started handing me things: a piece of strap, broken plastic ring and some other stuff, yelling "keep that for me in your pocket". After landing (face first), he explained that when he pulled the strap to deploy the chute, it broke and went thru and he was able to grab a hold of it in the nick of time before it would go thru some rings, which would've been the end... The stuff he handed me he wanted to use as evidence when suing the chute manufacturer... I had a weeklong Adrenaline high. I never got around to referring any customers to them...

Plenty of Mohammeds in this UK story

I totally misunderstood the headline... (American ladies, do not go to Australia with a snatch shaped like a wombat, you will be called out)

What's the pattern? Turkey and Egypt, somewhat neighbors... 3000 years later China and Persia, somewhat neighbors... Couple of question marks... and still the stated "pattern" eludes me.

My advice is to take another look at that sentence.

Well, Vice Minister, you have just contradicted the De-Facto PM who made this statement yesterday: https://aseannow.com/topic/1354960-thaksin-dismisses-us-sanctions-over-uyghur-deportations/

her kickboxing lessons, just in case...

Are the doctors using "they/their" collectively or separately? These doctors really should try to be more inclusive, given what's at stake: I see no mention of "nowomenclature" whatsoever!

ponder whether the break-up was real..., until another incident required the authorities' full attention and swooping.

Imagining the kind of judge he would have made...

Now I know for sure who was behind that decision.

Nothing to do with you..., she must have seen it in some movie, and now she can't stop doing it every few seconds

CharlieH, you really opened a can of... Yellow Fever!

Does that include the Royals?

Before returning to Thailand and during his police hospital recreation time, he was always referred to as the "De-facto Leader of the Pheu Thai Party". Now the media is starting to call him "influential figure", obviously in an effort to downplay and conceal his involvement in the governing of Thailand. If this continues, by next year he will be called "kindly grandfather"... I guess that's what influential figures do, they influence other figures to control narratives and create outcomes...
