He took some potassium cyanide from the lab and down it at home with Tequila. He was found 3 weeks later by his house mate. No note, nothing. There was no dignity in his lonely death.  Your ire should be the scumbag he flew from America to end this woman's life, the two incels who run the forum where this grooming went on. This isn't suicide; the victims are groomed to end their lives, in a sort of murder by proxy. Its analogous to the paedophile who grooms his victims. Their victims might think they are willing participants in a sexual act, but thats not the case.  What this article fails to mention is that the forum Aimee joined was frequented by Incels   The 2 Incels running these sites run 4 Forums; a Looksmaxxing (a sort of extreme male vanity site), an unemployment forum, the world's largets Incel forum and a Pro-Suicide forum. The latter is the only forum that permits women to join. Buzzfeed exposed "Marquis" and "Serge", who run these forums, in 2019. You can look up the article, which quotes some truely horrendous statements, referring to women as "femoids"  or "foids" and celebrating their deaths.</description><pubDate>Sat, 16 May 2026 14:01:19 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>UK Faces Weeks of Uncertainty Over Starmer&#x2019;s Future</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1394603-uk-faces-weeks-of-uncertainty-over-starmers-future/?do=findComment&comment=20510052]]></link><description>Starmer hates Britain.

Here is the breakdown:  Product and Delivery Costs: 70% (&#xE3F;56,000) CP All Cut (Gross Profit Split): 15% (&#xE3F;12,000) Rent, Electricity, and Utilities: 7% (&#xE3F;5,600) Staff Costs: 6% (&#xE3F;4,800 Baht) Franchisee Profit: 2% (&#xE3F;1,600)  Gross franchisee monthly pre-tax income: &#xE3F;48,000. After tax: &#xE3F;38,000 net.   One broken air conditioner, one monitor lizard tears up your store, a flood, or some other unforeseen costs not covered by insurance and you are at 0% profit for the month.   The above also doesn't include the annual cost of insurance, business registration, licenses, etc.</description><pubDate>Sat, 16 May 2026 13:49:11 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Beautiful news - my own 7-11</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1394507-beautiful-news-my-own-7-11/?do=findComment&comment=20510043]]></link><description>Good luck with that.</description><pubDate>Sat, 16 May 2026 13:48:07 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Thailand Seeks Tighter Cannabis Sales Controls</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1394283-thailand-seeks-tighter-cannabis-sales-controls/?do=findComment&comment=20510042]]></link><description>Absolutely.

That's why there's so many " avoidable " accidents in Thailand. I feel very sorry for the deceased and injured but this will go on for ever as Thais never show any judgement when it becomes to a split second decision. I've stopped many times at rail crossings where I considered it safe but most times a Thai driver cut in front of me putting his life in danger,</description><pubDate>Sat, 16 May 2026 13:44:23 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Thailand Seeks Tighter Cannabis Sales Controls</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1394283-thailand-seeks-tighter-cannabis-sales-controls/?do=findComment&comment=20510038]]></link><description>Dude Im not a plant genetisist, nor are you.
