Why Zelensky Won’t Bargain Away Crimea — No Matter the Pressure
How do you know he won't? Once a war gets started in earnest, there's no telling what will happen. And surely, you must understand why Russia needs a buffer zone. Part of its strategic defense system lies within easy striking distance of any missiles placed in Eastern Ukraine. Hence the sensitivity over NATO, especially after the cancellation of the intermediate range missile nuclear forces (INF) treaty by Trump during his first term. He got some bad advice on that, obviously, but it's all now history. Ukraine is in Russia's back yard and within the Russian sphere of influence. No different than if Russia or China would amass missiles and armies in Tijuana or Juarez, Mexico. The USA wouldn't put up with that for more than a few minutes. It wouldn't even be allowed to happen. So, telling me to "grow some" is telling me that I shouldn't care about the future of humanity. I do, and Im sure about 8 billion other people would agree with me. Crimea is now part of Russia, once again. And parts of the Donbas are now also part of Russia. Territorial nation states have been at war just about forever. That's the way territories are gained and lost. That's the way existing countries have been formed. That's reality. International law is all well and good, but in the final analysis, it doesn't much matter. -

Tipping
In cases where there is the ++ (i.e. 10% service charge) I don't tip. In other cases proportionally, usually not more than 20-50 baht. My taxi ride is usually around 60-65 baht, if it is a driver that starts the meter directly I always give 100. Taxi's are absurdly cheap, these guys make little money, work hard and the rates have hardly changed in the past 20 years or so. -

Today's experience trying to obtain my tax refund
Just got my refund check in today's mail. I do not have an account at Krung Thai Bank. Are we agreed that I can take the check (and passport and bankbook) to Kasikornbank and they will deposit it into my account? It's been a long haul. Like to see it come to a smooth finish. -

The Illusion of Liberty: How the Anti-Woke Right Betrayed Its Own Principles
Sorry, but I don't care about you at all. So, assuming you consider yourself to be on the "right," that supports what I just wrote above. -

Why Zelensky Won’t Bargain Away Crimea — No Matter the Pressure
Agree completely. Biden should have given Zelensky all the tools necessary to wipe out the orcs. It's very likely Putin wouldn't have survived such a stinging loss.- 1
