It is really backwards here sometimes for half an hour a year. 😀 My thoughts are, if a hot country does not have air-con homes/restaurants/shops/hotels/cars, then stay well away.Wed, 27 May 2026 02:29:34 +0000Technically not illegal. I suppose you can associate negative connotations to anyone participating in the sex trade. But in my opinion, an unethical journalist trying to smear people and ruin people's reputations is far worse than paying for sex.Wed, 27 May 2026 02:28:47 +0000That's not about hate that's about unaffordabilityWed, 27 May 2026 02:28:37 +0000If this Israeli guy is found guilty, then Donald Trump will demand that the Thai Government pardon him.Wed, 27 May 2026 02:28:09 +0000It is a lot denser and takes a lot more milk to make.Wed, 27 May 2026 02:27:02 +0000Thanks.

Non-secular Islamic nations only apply Sharia law to Muslims and mainly in civil matters only. The Palestinians in the occupied West Bank haven't expressed any desire to become a Muslim theocracy like Iran. In the wreckage of Gaza, Hamas has desperately hewn a course closer to what their more desperate state sponsors seek.Wed, 27 May 2026 02:25:02 +0000Austria has not only produced a Hitler, but also world-famous incest mongers. This one is still a small number, in contrast to this one: Josef Fritzl (“Amstetten Incest Case”): One of the world’s best-known cases. Fritzl kept his daughter Elisabeth prisoner in a cellar dungeon for 24 years (1984–2008), abused her thousands of times and fathered seven children with her. In 2009 he was sentenced to life imprisonment. The over 90-year-old is currently (as of May 2026) suffering from dementia; Applications for early release were recently rejected, but he was transferred to normal prison.Wed, 27 May 2026 02:24:19 +0000Upshot of all that.. Did a simple transaction yesterday $32 US to a foreign supplier from my Comm mastercard. Checked my account this morning transaction deducted at full ex rate and no 3. 5% international tfer fee. Just as if I had bought something locally in Australia.... Unless buying online different to buying from a shop or mall transaction. Thanks all for the help :-)Wed, 27 May 2026 02:24:17 +0000It must be a mistake. Another case of Anti-Semitism. Better call all the Chabad Center of Thailand and take action.Wed, 27 May 2026 02:22:36 +0000This is so obviously fake but let's run it by ChatGPT to confirm and see if we can expose any dunces or antisemites. Is this claim about an AIPAC X post legitimate? No, this screenshot is fake. It is a digitally manipulated meme that was never actually posted by AIPAC. ## Evidence of Fabrication * No Public Record: A thorough search of [AIPAC's Official X Timeline](https://x.com/AIPAC) confirms no such text was ever published. The exact phrase "elected officials are free to disagree with us, but only briefly" does not exist in any official archives. * Real Statements: Following the May 19, 2026, primary election, AIPAC's actual posts congratulated the winner, Ed Gallrein, using standard pro-Israel political messaging rather than the sarcastic, taunting tone seen in this meme. Their actual public comment stated: "Pro-Israel Americans are proud to back candidates who support a strong alliance and help defeat those who work to undermine it. Being pro-Israel is good policy and good politics!". * Visual Elements: The inclusion of the squinting-laughing emoji (😆) and the overly blunt phrasing are classic hallmarks of internet satire meant to exaggerate the lobbying group's influence following the historic $32 million primary spending. Which of these explanations do you believe makes the strongest case for why someone would share or like it? 1. They are dunces. 2. They are antisemitic. The Case for Explanation 1 (The Dunce / Lack of Critical Thinking) This is the strongest explanation for the vast majority of everyday users who posted or liked it. Low Digital Literacy: Most people on social media do not zoom in to check date formatting, font alignment, or timestamps before sharing. The Bias Trap: If an average user already strongly dislikes AIPAC, their brain instantly accepts the image as truth because it matches their existing anger. They share it out of pure reflex and sloppiness, completely oblivious to the fact that it is fake. The Case for Explanation 2 (Antisemitism) This is the strongest explanation for the origin and specific wording of the meme. Targeted Tropes: The joke in the fake tweet isn't just about money; it explicitly claims that a Jewish organization openly brags about controlling and dictating the career span of American politicians ("free to disagree... but only briefly"). Dog Whistling: For individuals who hold antisemitic beliefs, this screenshot is a perfect tool. It allows them to promote the conspiracy theory of "undue Jewish control over the government" while maintaining plausible deniability by claiming they are "just criticizing a political action committee." The Verdict: While this represents a smaller percentage of the total people sharing it, this motive is often the driving force behind why the image was manufactured and initially pushed into the media ecosystem.Wed, 27 May 2026 02:22:15 +0000Another stripper with a heart of gold, beguiled into a life of crime by a no-good man. Just breaks my heart.Wed, 27 May 2026 02:22:09 +0000I can't think of any other word which would explain why someone would keep a power bank into their suitcase after reading and agreeing to a simple safety card while checking in.
