I have never heard of it being available in vapes, anywhere certainly not here. Anyway It would obviously be illegal, firstly its a vape, and secondly it will contain more than 0.2% THCWed, 24 Jun 2026 02:49:01 +0000Muriatic acid to clean swimming pools and sulfuric acid to fill car batteries. Easily available. I've bought both at times. No questions asked.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:47:35 +0000Or what a dick he had.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:46:58 +0000So do you class those who were forced/asked to work from home during the Covid debacle to be self employed?Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:46:50 +0000Thanks, I grabbed it.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:46:07 +0000It depends. Sometimes Wise has local money available in transfer in seconds, other times it can take up to a week, usually 5 days. Plan accordingly. You could also opt for white. Makes much more sense in the sunshine. Oh, tell your girlfriend to buy some reflective Velcro bands to put around her ankles or something when walking on the street in all black. Hard for drivers to see, you're just asking for someone to hit you because they didn't see you. I wouldn't step in front of a computer vision Waymo in San Francisco or Phoenix wearing all black at night, unless I was trying to commit suicide by computer. 😜Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:45:58 +0000Additionally the parents seem to actually like the kid being distracted as they give the parents a break and aren't bothering them because they are bored. Plus the parents like to have the free time to post on social media, watch videos and play gamesWed, 24 Jun 2026 02:45:56 +0000Quote "from using social media, in a move aimed at reducing excessive screen time among young users." Bro, I bought 3 children tablets for "School". BS you know what they do on them? They play games and watch videos. You take away social media and they will just play more games, watch more videos or find an exploit around the ban.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:43:17 +0000You seem to have grabbed the wrong end of the stick. My hotel was in an affluent part of Cheshire from which I made a lot of money, which went nicely into my deep pockets, and we sold it after 17 years, at a good profit. OK, I did get a bit depressed having to be up at 6am to cook up to 24 breakfasts, but had plenty of time to follow my musical career as well.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:42:57 +0000While there is certainly an issue with mental health and suicides as you say, the ban in Australia is not working as intended. From AI... A major independent study released by the Molly Rose Foundation revealed staggering non-compliance: 61% of Australian children aged 12 to 15 who had social media accounts before the ban still have active access to one or more of them. The world's largest tech platforms have successfully retained the vast majority of their underage users. Specifically, 53% of previous TikTok users, 53% of YouTube users, and 52% of Instagram users under 16 have maintained access to their accounts.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:42:52 +0000I’ve lived and worked here in Thailand for many years as an employed professional, I’ve also lived and worked in a number of other countries as an employed professional. I came here to make money. I’ve not got rid of my assets, property or connections to my home country. My Plan B is not moving somewhere cheaper.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:42:29 +0000RaisingWed, 24 Jun 2026 02:41:56 +0000Lots of reporting by MSM as well as posts in SM (Twitter, Bluesky). Vance is saying one thing, Iran is saying the opposite. I don't think they're even close to resolving the nuclear issue. I don't think they're even close to starting to seriously discuss the nuclear issue. However, I think they've made more progress than anyone is letting on and I'm honestly surprised that they are still there and still talking. So that's a win for the world at the moment. By the way, that part of Lake Lucerne and that particular resort is stunningly beautiful. If I were on the negotiating team you would have a hard time pulling me away from there to return to Washington.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:41:33 +0000So sorry for Ms Wirawan who will have disfiguring, life changing injuries. I just hope the RTP catch up with this b-----d and charge him. He should be jailed for a very long time for an utterly despicable, extremely cruel offence.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:41:22 +0000But but was the UK economy better or worse after Brexit. Economic analyses show that the UK economy was stronger and on a higher growth trajectory before Brexit. Most estimates indicate that Brexit has made the UK economy 6% to 8% smaller than it would have been if the country had remained in the European Union.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:40:08 +0000Oh boy, there's a lot of BS on these pages. Of course you can touch but it depends where. My Thai wife is Thai and we are both in our 60's and we ALWAYS hold hands when in public, crossing the road or just shopping. This is not because I'm a whitey but because she initiates it. It's quite normal for Thais in a relationship to hold hands. Also, her adult children who are 100% Thai and in their late thirties also hold hands. So do many Thais of all ages. Kissing and hugging in public is socially not acceptable but not illegal. Revealing certain body parts or making suggestive movements is also frowned upon. I've never been one to be overly emotional in public. Same with my wife. Use common sense and control your geil until you have privacy.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:37:26 +0000Seems another colonial mentality attitude on display.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:37:21 +0000Nobody asked you to contribute Paddy. We all know what you think of the Brits. No need to worry - you can keep your short arms far away from your deep pockets.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:35:50 +0000Rather than a successful FTT it sounds like FFT, Farang Finger Trouble! As above, I expect you'll find the funds sitting in your GBP balance.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:35:35 +0000Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:34:49 +0000Reminder- posting multiple thumbs down in a short space of time against another poster, without being active in the discussion is seen as stalking. Rule 11. You will not troll or stalk other members by misusing forum posts, private messages, reactions, emojis or by any other means.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:34:39 +0000You're probably right. Thailand isn't alone in that regard. Name one country in the world where money isn't "...the be all to end all..." bet you can't.Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:34:22 +0000Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:33:54 +0000Wed, 24 Jun 2026 02:32:44 +0000
