If he only had carryon baggage, he could have gone right to the gate. At the gate, he would have been allowed to board if he appeared coherent and sober. Many people on the junket flights are like him, so he would not necessarily been out of place.  After surgical procedures, the recommended waiting period for flights of 2 hours or less is 7-14 days. The waiting period for more extensive work is 30 days. The "influencer" flew after 5 days and put himself for a medical emergency onboard the flight. The airline did him a favour.  Not one mention of the questionable ethics of the medical doctor(s) who performed the unnecessary procedure.</description><pubDate>Sat, 30 May 2026 18:28:43 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Worst Joke Ever 2026</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1071616-worst-joke-ever-2026/?do=findComment&comment=20530579]]></link><description>Sticking with the Anthony Gordon topic........</description><enclosure url="https://assets.aseannow.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2026_05/IMG-20260528-WA0001.jpg.164aa372e0b928b24fbd114e21785948.jpg" length="48684" type="image/jpeg"/><pubDate>Sat, 30 May 2026 18:20:35 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Mild BPH symptoms, unclear treatment path &#x2014; anyone in a similar situation?</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1361583-mild-bph-symptoms-unclear-treatment-path-%E2%80%94-anyone-in-a-similar-situation/?do=findComment&comment=20530578]]></link><description>For mild cases like the OP's, what about a short course (7-10 days) of combination of an antibiotic and an NSAID anti-inflammatory, for example tmp-sulfamethoxazole plus celecoxib or etodolac.  This is often prescribed in the west by clinicians, even when the urine test are negative for an infection, as it is found to be effective quite often for the initial stages of the BPH.  It makes sense to have this trial short treatment, before committing to longer-term medications described above.  Is this not a common practice in Thailand?</description><pubDate>Sat, 30 May 2026 18:19:12 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>&#x2018;Operation Raise the Flag&#x2019; founder charged with murder</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395555-operation-raise-the-flag-founder-charged-with-murder/?do=findComment&comment=20530577]]></link><description>Next court date is October I believe.</description><pubDate>Sat, 30 May 2026 18:07:24 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Technology,  Data Centers,  and Life without Parole</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395454-technology-data-centers-and-life-without-parole/?do=findComment&comment=20530576]]></link><description>Huge AI datacenters which might take over surveillance&#x2026; It is one possibility among several others. That is the issue I had with Leo's article, too many occurrences of "this is what is going to happen", "they are doing this because they are going to do that", "you will be made to do that", etc.  AI is a tool which can be used well or badly. Nothing has happened yet and just because Trump says something does not mean it will happen, as evidenced by the countless statements he has made before, the net effect of which was to draw attention and interest in a given issue. Example:  Remember when Trump did that press conference with Oracle's Larry Ellison by his side in January 2025, when they both appeared very enthusisatic about the prospect of "customizing mRNA vaccines to treat cancer within 48 hours"? A ripple instantly teared across the Substack landscape, as the Truth Tellers jumped to their keyboards to tell their subscribers: "You see? Trump is a globalist and now this is going to happen, then that is going to happen"&#x2026;  Of course, when RFK defunded the mRNA platform six months later, a silence fell over the Substack universe&#x2026; but was quickly broken by Trump's next statement, on which they all eagerly jumped. They are in a neverending hamster wheel while Trump remains ahead of them, calling the shots and directing the dynamics&#x2026; for what result? Awareness expands among the general public, in great part thanks to X.   I don't wave it away, I acknowledge it and then complete it with other existing factors in order to have a full picture and draw the most appropriate conclusion. For example, I never denied the dangers and nefarious intents behind CBDCs, and I always encouraged spreading awareness regarding those who promoted them&#x2026; but I also immediately noted that Trump banned them (and terminated what had been initiated by the Biden administration) by Executive Order during his first week in office. Therefore, the most appropriate conclusion is that they simply aren't going to happen.    Both the above issues have existed for decades, it's just that now we are in an engineered acceleration phase (emphasis on "engineered") so the effects are felt a lot harder&#x2026; But why?  The frogs were content with a slow simmer, but the heat was suddenly cranked up, jolting them awake.</description><pubDate>Sat, 30 May 2026 18:07:09 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Trump wants his portrait on 250$ bill</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395656-trump-wants-his-portrait-on-250-bill/?do=findComment&comment=20530575]]></link><description>Another illiterate Limey   No wonder your country looks like Pakistan</description><pubDate>Sat, 30 May 2026 18:04:12 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Jill Biden Defends Hunter Pardon: &#x2018;We Couldn&#x2019;t Let Him Go To Jai</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395723-jill-biden-defends-hunter-pardon-we-couldnt-let-him-go-to-jai/?do=findComment&comment=20530574]]></link><description>Mostly for  marijuana pardons , while Trump &#x1F921;has pardoned much more serious criminals, regards worgeordie</description><pubDate>Sat, 30 May 2026 17:58:07 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>What dem democracy looks like in support of criminality,News</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1393885-what-dem-democracy-looks-like-in-support-of-criminalitynews/?do=findComment&comment=20530573]]></link><description>Sanctuary rules once again turned local jails into revolving doors in Newsom's California for someone who shouldn't have been here at all.

I think the idea of a $250 bill is great, but the idea of putting his dreadful face on it is truly horrific. Why not just show him with his close buddy who was the conduit for Trump's substantial number of statutory rapes, most likely.  Most adults who have self-esteem rather than self-loathing don't engage in non-stop self-promotion. This in itself is a sign of a high degree of abnormality, insecurity, and pathological insanity. Trump is a freakish bit of street garbage.</description><enclosure url="https://assets.aseannow.com/forum/uploads/monthly_2026_05/Screenshot_20260529_001101_HuffPost.jpg.9e955f745c0f583f884cfbae8fb58c09.jpg" length="110429" type="image/jpeg"/><pubDate>Sat, 30 May 2026 17:53:05 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Thailand Visa Cut Sparks Tourism Debate</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1395691-thailand-visa-cut-sparks-tourism-debate/?do=findComment&comment=20530569]]></link><description>Indians need a visa for Vietnam though.

It may be fine for a couple of weeks, or perhaps 1 to 2 months at most, but doctors often keep people on these types of PPI drugs for years. Then one day, they wake up to find they have kidney failure because their kidneys have been severely and irreparably damaged by the drug, and they end up on dialysis for life.

Pure wishful thinking by the goons. Trump has his back to the wall now, and he's desperately looking for an exit plan to his ridiculous and unnecessary forever war.   Try explaining to the American people after this thing is over how little you accomplished, and how much you spent, and the degree to which you diminished America's standing in the world, and the prestige of the US Military. Don the Destroyer continues his rampage through history. He will most definitely be remembered as the 46th worst president.

A report by the office of Secretary General Ant&#xF3;nio Guterres said the UN had last year verified 31 cases of sexual violence perpetrated by Israeli forces against Palestinians from Gaza and the West Bank. It said 13 of the cases had occurred in 2025, and 18 in the two years prior.  The UN said its report should be seen as "indicative of incidents and patterns" rather than comprehensive.  Israel said it rejected allegations of sexual abuse and intended to break off relations with the secretary general's office.  Israel's ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, accused Guterres on Thursday of spreading antisemitic lies.  https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx21le869n1o    Get caught acting inhumanely.
