American on Dirt Bike Kills Thai Woman Crossing Road in Chiang Mai
I see some awful behaviour from Thais on the roads this statement needs amending, if you'd been here longer, and/or didn't have a one eyed view, you'd know the awful behaviour on thai roads is absolutely not restricted only to thais, i see plenty of westerners behaving appallingly on the roads here, endangering themselves and others. -

Is this true: "Bangkok is garbage now a great place for naive clueless tourists and overpay"
I'll risk it and take you seriously. Bangkok is a great city. It is quite modern, has good commo technology, great healthcare, and a wide range of restaurants covering every taste, from Thai to Japanese to Italian to Chinese to Indian to French to burgers and wings. Grocery stores carry lots of Western staples, if one wishes to eat those foods, you can find most any clothing or electronic item you might want (except if you have large and narrow feet, like my 12 B, best your bring shoes from home). If one is an exercise fanatic, good gyms are everywhere and inexpensive. Transportation is convenient (BTS Skytrain and MRT underground), and even if taxi drivers try to cheat you, rides are still cheap. Nightlife is whatever you want it to be, from nightclubs to bars to the things for which Thailand has a reputation. For a Westerner, especially one who hasn't traveled much, the city can be somewhat exotic. It's also safer than most major Western cities, almost on par with Tokyo. Suvarnabhumi Airport is a major hub and one can catch a flight to almost anywhere from there. The downsides are that it is crowded and the air is not the best, especially during the field burning season. Also, there are really only two seasons: really hot, and rainy & really hot. One gets used to the heat, but it can take time.The bureaucracy can be frustrating, too, but a little patience and a polite manner get one through that. I've lived in many countries, and I find Thailand and Bangkok to be a place where one can easily and quickly adapt......and enjoy. What I like is that each little neighborhood in Bangkok becomes like a village: everybody knows everybody and gets along really well, both Thais and expats. -

COVID Vaccines Could INTEGRATE with Human DNA: Yale Research
I'll see your big pharma propaganda ... raise and call.. ... with real news Found in both Pfizer & Moderna ... Here's another with disturbing info ... which I'm probably not allowed to link. Simply Google one of the quoted statements below, if interested in the info. IMHO and IMHO only, I believe the potential harm. And ... Medicinal Genomics is partly funded by NIH & Department of Energy: Funded researchers in the United States as part of the Human Genome Project. A lot of 'geno' interests ... really, gene therapy was the furthest thing from their mind. ... "Kevin McKernan, founder of Medicinal Genomics, described the findings as a “bombshell,” and warned that DNA fragments might overstimulate the immune system, potentially “fueling cancer growth.”... ... "World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines state that a single vaccine dose should not contain more than 10 nanograms of residual DNA. The study, however, found levels in Pfizer’s vaccines exceeding this limit by six to 470 times." Safe & Effective ... -

Saudia Airlines - Choose Carefully
Tosh, I very much can 'live without booze for a few hours'. I have in fact, just gone 5 months without a drop of alcohol. You should maybe, not spout off without knowing the full details. A couple of glasses of wine and I usually wake up at the destination. A carrier that has such rules - which are not the norm in air transport, should in my opinion, make it quite clear that they do not serve alcohol. Many Arab states have quite stiff alcohol laws but often relax them for foreigners. Agreed. There's absolutely nothing wrong with preferring a glass or two of beer or wine alongside a meal. ...But, predictably, some feel compelled to gaslight and twist this harmless preference into a melodramatic accusation, laced with farcical insinuations of alcoholism - its pathetic. It’s almost amusing how we’re treated to the same tiresome script whenever alcohol is mentioned in passing on any thread. Cue the sanctimonious chorus: 'Oh, no booze on Saturday,' swiftly followed by the ever-predictable pearl-clutching proclamation, 'If you can’t go a day without booze, you have a problem.' Originality is a lost art, sanctimony though... -
