"Omg!!! He's Going To Take Our Meds Away" HHS Dir. RFK Jr reviews SSRIs
Yep, went to a doctor once and he was trying to push anti-depressants on me even though that's not what I went to see him form. Depression is part of life. It's manageable without medications. -

Is anyone concerned about DOGE targeting US Soc Sec direct deposit into Thai accounts?
The OP is asking posters to predict what the present US government will do with Social Security payments. I seem to have mislaid my crystal ball. -

Varicose vein removal 220,000 baht
A hospital in Bangkok quoted me 220,000 baht to treat varicose veins in both legs, using the laser ablation method. Breakdown was 10k per leg for ultrasound, and 100k per leg for the laser ablation. No overnight hospital stay required. Does this sound reasonable, anyone have recent experience with this procedure ? -

Pai Locals Raise Concerns Over Chabad House Amid Security Warnings
It's not a question of nationality but of religious identity. Chabad Houses are open to Jews of any nationality and about 5,000 of them are located in 100 different countries. You have to keep in mind there are only 15.7 million Jews in the world, with 7.2 million in Israel and 5.7 million in the U.S. That leaves the remaining 2.8 million spread pretty thin. In many countries and cities, the Jewish population isn't large enough to support dedicated synagogues or commercial outlets for kosher food. Chabad Houses are therefore needed in these areas to enable Jews, especially observant Jews, to worship and follow a Jewish lifestyle. The Chabad movement arose in the 1960s as travel to distant places became more affordable and popular. There are also Chabad Houses to assist Jewish students on or near university campuses. For those of you who like statistics, the world's 17.2 million Jews make up only 0.2% of the 8 billion total population. That compares with 2.4 billion Christians, 2,0 billion Muslims, 1.2 billion Hindus and 500 million Buddhists. With 60 million adherents worldwide, Voodoo has more than three times the number of followers as Judaism. Claims of Jewish influence or "dominance" are, shall we say, exaggerated. The incident with the misbehaving young Israeli men has taken a very nasty twist due to classic antisemitism. If young Irish or Italian men caused a ruckus, Thai authorities wouldn't respond by checking the immigration status of foreigners attending a Catholic church. Same-same with Scottish or Scandinavian young men and a Protestant church or young Indians and a Hindu temple. That would be unthinkable. But because some residents of Thailand, both foreigners and Thai, are infected with antisemitism, false Internet rumors of an attempted Jewish "takeover" of Pai gained force and led to a "raid" on the Chabad House. It's sad that sort of mentality and suspicion of Jews is still rearing its ugly head today. -

Biden can ride a bicycle. I'd love to see Trump try.
