The main difference is not necessarily the direction of the arms, although that is often cited as the case as they are facing clockwise for the Nazi version, it's that the Nazis changed the oriention of the symbol by 45 degrees and had it sat on the point of one arm, whereas the religious ones are always flat. However, I highly doubt that the guy taking umbridge in the restaurant would know that.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:43:11 +0000Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:43:10 +0000The black man is uneducated. You could be talking about anyone in America, too. The U.S. has many of the world’s top universities, strong scientific output and innovation and a cultural respect for practical intelligence like entrepreneurs, engineers, etc But Antintectualism is baked into the American culture. ✅ Populism (“ordinary people vs. elites/experts”) Religious traditions that sometimes prioritize faith over academic authority Frontier history, which valued practical skills over formal education Distrust of institutions (media, academia, government)Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:42:04 +0000We bought the land around 8 years ago, the rubber tree owner does not live on the land and simply ignores anything we say/do, we have had trouble with overhanging branches on both his rubber trees and palm oil trees for several years as the fenceline is along all adjoining land (over 2 rai), he has planted all the trees as close to the boundary as possible with around 1.5 to 2 metres between our fence and the trees. Unfortunately my wife avoids confrontation and to get her to complain is extremely hard, she says if we complain then we will suffer as the owner is local and has family all around us, we have only ever been able to talk to their workers never the owner. Falling trees/branches have damaged one of our fences, have dropped branches on our roof and fallen into our yard, they simply ignore us, they even set fire to the vacant block between our house block and our tree block at one stage and caused damage to our tees, they are extremely ignorant, makes me want to just grab the chain saw and take out all the trees along our boundary but that will then fall back on us, I highly doubt the law will help us.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:41:22 +0000How much of what happens around the world in terms of wars, tragedies, poverty, disease, political chaos, natural disasters, climate change, and so on really matters to the average person on a daily basis, assuming you live in a generally stable environment? You could spend your whole life worrying about all the problems of the world, but at the end of the day, how much of it really has any impact on your everyday life? I’ve got friends who get panicked by every little tragedy thousands of miles away, engage in endless conspiracy theories, and get consumed by the idea that whatever we’re told is the opposite of the truth. I often sit there asking myself, why should any of this stuff even matter to me anyway? My life is simple. I’ve got enough money to cover my expenses. I live in a comfortable place. Nobody bothers me. Most of the time, nobody threatens me. So I basically use one indicator to decide whether any of these things really matter to me or not. And when I say matter to me, I don’t mean it in a selfish way. I mean in the sense that it’s going to disrupt my ability to comfortably exist. Probably the one thing that contributes most to sustaining my health and well being is a high protein diet, and my major source of that is chicken and eggs. I realize I’m simplifying it a bit because, of course, we actually need lots of other things too. Clean water, shelter, clothing, medicine, sleep, sanitation, exercise, and human connection all play a role. But at the end of the day, I want to pick one thing to use as a gauge. If I can still afford to buy enough chicken and eggs to keep myself healthy, then it tells me that, despite whatever is happening elsewhere in the world, my own life remains fundamentally stable. That means many of those other tragedies don’t really affect me directly, provided I choose not to devote my attention to them and instead focus on my own longevity. Before you get fixated on the chicken and eggs and start telling me I should be eating something else, bear in mind that this is simply a way of applying a more simplified view of the world. It’s a way of deciding whether, despite all the chaotic and unfortunate things happening around me, most of which are completely out of my control, life is still fundamentally sustainable because I still have access to my basic needs. If that’s still true, then maybe I don’t need to spend so much of my energy on everything else that’s so peripheral to my everyday existence. I could be oversimplifying things, and perhaps there are flaws in this way of thinking. But I’ve found that reducing life to its essentials makes the world feel a little less overwhelming. And no, this isn’t a chicken and egg situation. It’s just my chicken and egg philosophy.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:41:15 +0000It would be funny especially the contact sports, but for something like "shooting" i cant see the differenceWed, 01 Jul 2026 02:40:56 +0000So jungle drums heresay and chinese whispers then.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:40:40 +0000The issue is that Thailand is just another mass tourist destination, and all the issues that brings, since covid none of the people i know who used to came every few years have stopped coming, they stick to Europe U.S and South America is becoming attractive, though many just found the high humidity with the temperature, not very pleasant, and a few of thir wives did say they found it seedy.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:39:34 +0000No, the girl is underage for the activities he hired her for, as all my replies have made clear. You've said it's legal to hire a 17-year-old for sex off the street, and it certainly is not, as per the charges he is facing.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:39:12 +0000EscargotWed, 01 Jul 2026 02:38:23 +0000Rest in peace.

Wouldn't issue Bank Letter? Why. Bank letter is simply proof of ownership of the account and balance at time of letter being issued. Nothing to do with immigration in itself. Why would immigration suggest you deposit 800k. Funds for money in bank method need to be seasoned. What exactly was the "work around" Is the bank BBL?Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:34:44 +0000Not the gang kind, Solo rapes can be manipulated into forcing the girl to marry her attacker though. It is a sick chattel concept where it is an affront to her father, not the girl.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:34:11 +0000Firstly, we're talking about less than 2 dozen individuals in a country of nearly 350 millon people. Secondly, there has not been any record or indication of trans athletes dominating over the gender in which they compete. "People have had enough of those sporting cheats"? Are you seriously living your best life whinging on about an issue which has zero effect on your own life, and just babbling on about a completely baseless issue right-wing talking point that distracts from the housing crisis, cost of food, lack of jobs, and the country is at war over a completely unjust cause thanks to the United States of Israel. Try doing a second of research on trans athletes "cheats" before you just make a fool of yourself further. But, clearly you can't, or won't, because facts and truths are utterly unimportant to you.Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:33:50 +0000SureWed, 01 Jul 2026 02:33:33 +0000She sounds very cute " thank you beeesshhhh, you too beesshhh, f u beeesshhhh" She's probably 🔥Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:33:10 +0000Better get there before October so you can vote.

That would give them little brown babies equal rights with the lawless, untouchable one at the top. UN-POSSIBLE I think even in their little twisted minds they saw the unintended consequences from that ruling might explode in their racist faces. 😅Wed, 01 Jul 2026 02:32:17 +0000I was going to post something similar to what you posted. So many people are ignorant to the differences and use of this symbol and its mirror design. It's said that ignorance is bliss, but I say stupid just can't be fixed!
