Australian Aged Pension
Your post has me puzzled, because I do not get any supplements, e.g. electricity, phone, rent assistance etc. Every time I leave Australia, the supplement stops being paid after 6 weeks. When I return to Australia, it is restored in my next pension payment. That pattern has been followed for more than ten years. I can only conclude you are getting the supplement as the result of some screwup, which is not unknown in bureaucracies. -

Are you on a Vet Affairs Service pension or the OAP? Everyone I know on here doesn't get the supplement. -

Trump's Trade Policies Threaten Thai Economy
Highly unlikely any tariffs will be be raised for TH. Since one of the few that allows USA use of it's military bases in SEA. Along with not wanting to push TH to stronger ties with CN, that it already is leaning to. -

proof of residence for British passport renewal
thanks, I'll do that as a last resort. Seems a little silly though seeing that the same immigration office just extended my visa based on the required funds in my bank account! Perhaps I'll tick the 'sell motorcycle' instead. -

Biden pardons Hunter.
I have spoken to many experts in addiction. Experts that will tell you the REALITY of addiction - like "hitting rock bottom" for most people is not them getting a wake up call - it's them running out of money to get more drugs. AA of course say "everyone is an alcoholic forever" - it's nonsense - old, dated claptrap from their founder. And it helps to boost their numbers. Hence the "lost souls" there - addicted to meetings, still going after 25 years clean, Still convincing themselves they are addicted. I think they are just lonely. And that's fine. Perhaps you have not experienced addiction personally. So my lived experience and yours are different. Mine tells me that with sufficient time - the past is in the past - the demons are away for good. The risk is no longer there. That you have done the last "dip your toe in the water for old times sake" - and found the 'magic' was no longer there. Maybe your journey was one of buying into what AA told you - that you need to join and be a member forever. More power to you if that's what you need. It just doesn't make it true.
