Is Earth round or flat❓
It could be explained to you, but it can't be understood for you !!... At risk of contracting the famous Mark Twain quote... I'll give a very brief explanation, though I'm sure you can't seriously believe what you write, instead you are playing a 'devils advocate troll'... The constellations appear relatively unchanged over thousands of years despite Earth's motions because of the vast distances between stars and the scale of the universe. Here are the main reasons..... Vast Distances: Stars are so far away that Earth's and the Sun's motions barely affect their apparent positions. Relative Motion: Stars also move, but their shifts are tiny from our perspective over thousands of years. Short Observation Time: Human history is too short to notice significant changes in constellations. Local Motion: Earth's and the Sun's speeds are insignificant compared to the cosmic scale. Slow Changes: Precession and star motion cause small shifts, but constellations only change noticeably over millennia or more. Water doesn’t “stick” to a spinning ball in space due to belief or magic but rather because of gravity, and the gravity on earth exceeds the centrifugal inertia. Somewhat difficult when your beliefs are irrational... we get dragged down the rabbit hole and the Mark Twain quote springs back to minds.... "Never argue with a... " 10 pages on this thread and I've avoided posting because I fail to believe that someone can truly believe that the Earth is not a spherical and for some reason some posters such as yourself are getting a trollish kick out of this... -

Can anyone explain to me why there are cannabis shops everywhere?
The prices charged in the tourist weed shops are ludicrous, so they probably cover their costs with a couple of customers a day. I only buy online and am aware that I am paying well over the odds, but it's convenient. -

Trump’s Transition Team Eyes Swift WHO Exit, Sparking Global Health Concerns
Are you implying that I haven't? If what you say is true then why haven't you answered my first question to you? You claim you deal in facts. Where are the facts on this question? The WHO didn't live up to it's billing on the Covid pandemic at all. You tell me that's false yet can't produce any facts that show otherwise. And contrary to your derogatory imaginings, no, I'm not bored in the least. You then have the audacity to claim that you've proved me wrong. My claim being that the WHO was ineffectual during the pandemic. They were late to call the pandemic - only after it was global common knowledge, they didn't arrest the spread, and neither did they offer up any solutions to reduce the death toll. For you to prove those "baseless" claims wrong, which are indeed historical facts, then you need to provide the facts which show those claims to be false. You haven't yet. I've asked you twice now for factual evidence that "proves me wrong." Both times the question went unanswered. The topic is "Trump’s Transition Team Eyes Swift WHO Exit, Sparking Global Health Concerns," is it not? Does Trump share my mind on the ineffectual nature of the WHO, too? Might that be the reason he doesn't want to spend $220 million a year on an organisation that doesn't fulfill it's purpose? Why I'm dead on topic. Wouldn't you agree? In fact, I'll go further than claiming that the WHO was ineffectual. It can be contested that they were indeed harmful. Harmful in that they poo-pooed two potential mitigations that some doctors found success with. And they pushed the "one solution only" mRNA gene editing therapy despite the unknown risks of a never before tried therapy. If all of the reports of adverse events do get proven to be related to the mRNA shots, and if the reports of the deaths are also proven to be linked to it, then the WHO would be a guilty contributing partner in this travesty of a human tragedy. As I've said before, we should soon find out what that truth is. You disparagingly referred to Ivermectin as merely a horse dewormer. Didn't I provide you with literature which dispels that falsity? Didn't I ask you if that information helped change your view of Ivermectin as purely a horse dewormer? Did you reply to that last question? No, you didn't. You simply blew it off as not having any usefulness against Covid-19 by disparaging it with a misleading statement. You, my friend, were merely parroting what "officialdom" and the MSM were telling you. I provided you with a list of experts, too. My list is one of reputable and accomplished folks who were dragged through the mud and sullied for the crime of daring to dispute the mRNA gene editing therapy claims. They, too, had stellar bios previous to Covid-19. The point being that a qualifying bio may, to use your own word, only be an appearance. I did not make any baseless speculation about any of the people on your lists. My only point, and it's a valid one, is that unless you know everything there is to know about them then you cannot automatically settle on an informed opinion from their bioa alone. You really have no earthly idea who these people truly are. Any one of them could be another, say, Michael Yeadon. A guy with an impressive bio. Again, because I raise that quite practical aspect then the raising of it doesn't magically transform it into baseless speculation of a derogatory nature. My point, again, is that providing a bunch of bios on people is, in essence, and in practical terms, worthless. Tell me that valid point goes over your head. This is looking to me to be a case where you're doing all you can to not concede on any of your beliefs and have no real interest in finding out whether your beliefs have any true worth via an open dialogue that challenges them. And complain when you do come up empty. Defence, defence, defence. That's about it, innit? -

No minibus in airport
Yet another poster who didn't venture out of the main tourist hotspots and assumes, totally wrongly, that all of Phuket is the same as Patong and to a lesser extent Karon/Kata/Kamala/Surin. Phuket is a big island - you need to explore! -

Giving Up Weed
What kind of papers are you rolling with? Are they king size? I think with king size papers you can get a gram into a joint more easily. Much more difficult with the standard one and a quarter size. -
