Kanye West Declares Himself a Nazi, Sparks Outrage with Anti-Semitic and Offensive Tirade
There's never "more" to antisemitism than an irrational hatred of Jews. A great many people "understand what he means and why he is doing it." His mental health issues* may have helped cause him to express age-old antisemitic tropes about a Jewish conspiracy controlling parts of the economy. Whatever "evil underbelly" exists in the music and entertainment business is not the result of a Jewish conspiracy. For Ye to say otherwise simply means he's fallen for a false conspiracy theory. It's been happening for 2,000 years. *"Kanye West has said he was misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder, and has now been diagnosed as autistic." He formerly took medication related to bipolar disorder which can interfere with cognitive processes. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2025/feb/06/kanye-west-ye-autism-diagnosed -

The CBR250RR: Is It Worth The Price Tag?
170k for a 250cc ... No I could deal with this though. A better value, and probably cost less. -

Road Safety in Thailand – a summary of Perceptions and Reality
Trying to have a discussion with you is like playing chess with a pigeon... As ever. your response is full of logical fallacies, anecdotal reasoning, and contradictions. “All the data I, or anyone, needs is the yearly accident stats.” - ”OMG! - That’s a fundamental misunderstanding of statistics. As I said before raw accident numbers don’t explain why crashes happen or how to fix them. Professionals analyse factors like enforcement, infrastructure, driver training, and cultural attitudes—not just body counts. It also helps if you know how and where stats are collated. “Drivers know the laws, they just ignore them.” - “drivers” - what do you mean by that? - Another racist stereotype? - If laws aren’t enforced, why would people follow them? We know this from many countries that lack of enforcement breeds negligence and this is why countries with have proper enforcement systems - just suggesting the police “do their job” - is facile in the extreme.. As ever your blaming of individuals without addressing systemic failures is both naive and counterproductive. “I saw a parent with four people on a scooter without helmets.” Yes, we’ve all seen that. But anecdote isn’t data and actually shows a huge misunderstanding of the future surrounding the rich and poor in road safety - see the post by “Lorry”. If individual observations were the gold standard for understanding road safety, we wouldn’t need actual studies to assess risk factors and solutions. But one thing that is self-evident is that countries that base their safety programs on data show great improvements wheat in Thailand where “alternative” anecdotal methods have shown no significant change in 30 years. “Anyone older than a teenager should know to avoid reckless driving.” That’s wishful thinking. People don’t behave based on what they ‘should’ do, they behave based on what’s allowed. That’s why better driver training, licensing exams, and strict enforcement matter—not just personal responsibility. - but you have shown over and over again you don’t understand what “human error” is. “Are you Thai?” This Such a weak, irrelevant deflection. Road safety isn’t about race or nationality; it’s a universal science about policies, enforcement, and infrastructure. If someone disagrees with your opinion, it doesn’t mean they’re “sticking up” for anyone—it means your argument is just not an argument. “It doesn’t matter what percentage it actually is.” This single line DESTROYS YOUR ENTIRE CREDIBILITY. If you don’t care about actual data, then you’re not arguing in good faith. You’re just pushing a narrative based on personal bias. “I, and many others, have driven for years and see it daily.” You still haven’t grasped that That’s just confirmation bias. The fact that multiple people have the same subjective experience doesn’t make it objective truth. If that were the case, science and statistics wouldn’t exist “You are close-minded for looking at data instead of the whole picture.” No—ignoring data is close-minded. The whole picture includes actual research, not just gut feelings. Again you don’t understand cognitive dissonance either. Final thought? You’re arguing based on personal frustration, not actual analysis. If you want real change, you need facts, not emotional anecdotes. -

Ugandan Woman Fakes Seizure to Evade Immigration Check in Pattaya
Picture from responders. A Ugandan woman attempted to evade an immigration check by feigning a seizure on Pattaya Beach after being stopped by officers late during the night of 7 February. The incident occurred during an inspection by immigration officials following widespread online criticism of large groups of Indian tourists allegedly drinking alcohol, littering, and sleeping on the beach. The social media backlash had raised concerns about the impact on Pattaya’s reputation as a tourist destination. During the routine document inspection, officers approached a suspicious individual, later identified as Miss Irene Nakyanzi, a 39-year-old Ugandan national. As soon as she was asked to provide identification, she fled on foot. After a brief chase, officers caught up with her, at which point she dramatically collapsed onto the sand, pretending to have a seizure, shocking onlookers. Upon verifying her passport, authorities discovered that Nakyanzi had overstayed her visa by an astonishing 603 days, having remained in Thailand illegally since 15 June 2023. After medical treatment she was taken into custody and will face legal proceedings before being deported. -- 2025-02-09
