Maybe they would all like us to wear ankle bracelets with GPS monitoring our movements. So untrusted is the Farang. So scared are the Thais that we might take over the country.</description><pubDate>Fri, 12 Jun 2026 14:46:47 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Has Thailand Ruined Casual Dating?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396564-has-thailand-ruined-casual-dating/?do=findComment&comment=20550280]]></link><description>Best to hang out with Thais.

Although I agree that the wording doesn&#x2019;t make it definitive. Whether the man is the father is even less certain.  I assume tests will be done to make sure. It would be sensible just in case there is something even more weird going on.</description><pubDate>Fri, 12 Jun 2026 14:22:58 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Essexman Update.</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/624249-essexman-update/?do=findComment&comment=20550267]]></link><description>If you were a reader, you would know that "self-published" = crap.  It's analogous to YouTubers listing the number of "movies they produced".  It's not the same.  The post is clearly an attempt to drum up interest in his crappy output so he can earn a few more pennies from Amazon.  His post is a poorly disguised advertisement for his books.  Suckers might fall for it.  If Trevor tries to advertise on ASEAN Now, he has to accept the possibility of people saying his product is crap.  That's the last I'm going to say about it, since a prolonged discussion might draw more attention to the thread.

Reporting if your address changes so that the government knows where you are, is different to reconfirming an existing address.  Not that I care, I travel out of the country every month or so, so I never have to do a 90 day report. I&#x2019;m simply clarifying what appears to be some confusion.</description><pubDate>Fri, 12 Jun 2026 14:14:38 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The party whose Member represents a Nazi, News</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396450-the-party-whose-member-represents-a-nazi-news/?do=findComment&comment=20550261]]></link><description>We must remember Robert KKK Byrd (D) was in the Senate, and FDR's first nominee to the Supreme Court was Hugo Black, who was an active member of the KKK.

I just bought a 2020 Suzuki Swift that has an infotainment system that only plays radio or files from phone or USB stick, and it seems to take forever to restart where the last song finished once it's powered on.   How can I get music as soon as I turn on the ignition, or is that not possible?</description><pubDate>Fri, 12 Jun 2026 14:08:23 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Single retired men</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1396192-single-retired-men/?do=findComment&comment=20550258]]></link><description>So what if someone has a few spelling errors?

Nothing would unite Muslims worldwide as much as an attack on one of their holiest shrines. Diaspora Jews in every country would be the targets of homicidal rage.
