Trump admits getting fooled
I must admit this is a rare display of courage and morality from the circus clown, for him to criticize Putin is a rather extraordinary thing, and hundreds of millions of people around the world must be shaking their heads and saying finally, finally the man stood up and showed some dignity. -

Accident Motorcyclist Killed After Crashing into Stationary Lorry at Red Light in Chachoengsao
Pictures courtesy of Matichon. A young woman has died after riding her motorcycle into the rear of a stationary six-wheeled lorry waiting at a red light in Chachoengsao province during the early hours of 26 April. The incident occurred at around 03:00. Pol. Lt. Prayut Dana, the investigating officer at Saen Phu Dat Police Station, received a report of a fatal collision at the Bang Krut traffic lights on Siri Sothon Road (Highway 314, Bang Pakong–Chachoengsao), in Khlong Prawet Subdistrict. Emergency services were dispatched to the scene. Upon arrival, officers found a large white Hino lorry, registration number from Bangkok, stationary in the third lane of a five-lane junction. The vehicle had stopped properly at the red traffic light and was loaded with goods, covered by a heavy tarpaulin. Investigators discovered a red, unregistered motorcycle wedged beneath the rear of the lorry, severely crushed at the front. Beneath the vehicle, rescue workers retrieved the body of a woman trapped under the wreckage. The deceased, later identified as Ms. Kansuda Khammau, 26, from Nakhon Nayok province, was wearing a shirt bearing the logo of a major telecommunications company. The crash scene was littered with broken motorcycle parts and a trail of blood from the scene. The lorry driver, Mr. Mongkol, 37, from Nong Hoi Subdistrict in Phra Thong Kham District, Nakhon Ratchasima Province, told police that he had been transporting latex spring mattresses from Bangkok to Aranyaprathet District, Sa Kaeo Province. Upon reaching the junction, he had slowed and stopped well in advance for the red light. After waiting for approximately a minute, he heard a loud noise from the rear of the lorry and, upon inspection, discovered the motorcycle and the fatal victim. Mr. Mongkol stated that he had complied fully with traffic laws and had come to a complete stop before the collision occurred. Police are continuing their investigation and have sent Ms. Kansuda’s body for a post-mortem examination. Authorities will also work to inform her family and assist with funeral arrangements.

ALL VACCINES WILL KILL YOU - The evidence is overwhelming
They would have to and eventually would, whether they liked it or not. Hence the utmost importance of such studies being carried out. The media , the MAIN street media, which until recently controlled the "information" fed to the masses........... has been shown now, over and over, to have lied and continue to remain 100% biased even as they are now sinking, sinking, sinking. This has been proved beyond any doubt . Even showing the clips on TV of the covid pushers making false claims ( you will NEVER get covid. you can not transmit covid , simple cloth masks and distancing will protect you, staying home will save your grandmother.....etc etc etc. .....finally to just need more boosters !)..... can not penetrate their thick defenses. There is no reasoning with the manic defenders of the status quo that is trying to maintain that control . The control which even the ordinary man who does not write in arrogant , superior feeling attitudes..... can see with their own eyes what is true. I need no scientific evidence to know when someone is only fighting for one main reason; to be right. To win. At that point... they are just a waste of time to me. The game is so easy to see , and yet the carousel keeps going on and on. The game is so simple ! : the age old practice of “accusing the other side of that which you are guilty.” Trump gets it . No more BS . Rumak gets it . No more BS. -

Community Chiang Mai Café Responds to “Human Zoo” Controversy
Picture and video courtesy of Khoasod. A well-known café in Chiang Mai has defended itself following criticism that it resembles a “human zoo”, after a photo went viral showing workers sorting tobacco leaves while customers enjoyed their drinks nearby. The controversy erupted after Dr Nick Suwadee Phanphanich, a former Thai Sang Thai Party parliamentary candidate and executive at Thonburi Hospital, posted an image of herself at Yen.CNX, a café in Chiang Mai. In the background, workers could be seen engaged in traditional tobacco-sorting, a scene which some online critics said created a sense of class disparity and likened to a “human zoo”. However, Dr Suwadee later clarified her intentions, expressing respect for community traditions that showcase diverse livelihoods. “I appreciate cafés that allow people to witness authentic lifestyles that still exist,” she wrote, likening the venue to other establishments such as tea plantations, farm cafés, and weaving centres. “I disagree with the term ‘human zoo’. It reflects shallow thinking and demeans the workers. They have honour and dignity, and we must respect their way of life,” she added. The owner of Yen.CNX, a woman who inherited the business from her family, said she was surprised by the backlash and explained that the café was never intended to exploit anyone. The building was originally her family’s tobacco-sorting factory, dating back to her grandfather’s time and later run by her father and uncle. “The café never intended to diminish the value of any occupation. On the contrary, we believe every profession deserves respect and dignity,” she said. She explained that the space was created to preserve and share the heritage of her family’s tobacco business. Designers were hired to maintain the original architecture, and exhibition rooms were added to educate visitors about the tobacco cultivation and processing history. During the tobacco season, from January to May, real tobacco sorting takes place on site, performed by skilled workers who have long been part of the family operation and are paid fairly for their work. “This café wasn’t created for entertainment,” she stressed. “It’s meant to be a place for learning and storytelling, always with respect for the dignity of every worker.” She also said she welcomed public feedback and would consider it for future improvements. Despite the online debate, reporters in Chiang Mai noted that the café remained busy on 25 April, with a steady stream of customers. The establishment, which has been open for over three years, continues the family’s traditional trade in a modern setting. One visitor, who had heard of the controversy just hours before her visit, said she came specifically to see the café for herself. “Having seen it with my own eyes, I feel differently. It’s like visiting a coffee farm or tea plantation, it’s about showing the process. I think the photo that caused the outrage may have been taken from a misleading angle,” she said. The debate continues to generate discussion online, highlighting broader societal questions around class, tradition, and representation in modern Thai spaces.
