Beware of Non-O extensions, when traveling
Not missing anything. Seems you had a single entry Non O. It has a validity of 3 months (window) to enter Thailand. It was used upon entry and you were given a 90 day permission of stay. -

Russian Airline Flight Makes Emergency Landing at BKK After Circling for 3 Hours
I'm curious. I think if that plane was to land outside a "friendly" to Putin country that it would be seized. Obviously, Thailand is friendly. With official maintenance cut off they've been repairing such planes by cannibalizing planes they do have. So my question is this -- does Thailand provide repair services for such "sanctioned" planes from Russia? -

Being an American abroad since Trump took office again feels (one word fill in the blank)
Since the OP took "embarrassing", I will go with shameful. But there is an answer. I'm in the process of relinquishing my US citizenship, as the nation of my birth and the land for which I served no longer exists. I will miss what it was, but not what it has become. And eff the "tax" on assets greater than $3 million. Come and get me, a-holes. Back a decade ago I planned for this eventuality. I bought property in several countries where it is allowed, and have my refuges. I've moved funds to a series of international banks, some of whom don't worry about FATCA. The US offers me nothing now except embarrassment, so it's time to leave. I also suspect lots of social upheaval in the not too distant future. If the California secession movement succeeds, I might return there at some future date. There are similar movements beginning in Oregon, Washington, and New England. The PINO might need Greenland, Canada, Gaza and Panama if he wants to keep 50 stars on the flag. The US won't miss me, but I have no interest in what it has become. I've lived in monarchies and totalitarian states before, and I do not want to do it again. I find it sad that only two Republicans had any balls, and one of those was a woman. The rest are cowards, afraid of a mean Tweet or getting primaried, so they ignore their oath to the Constitution and instead act as if they are North Koreans, clapping for the clownish autocrat like trained seals. If there is an afterlife, I am quite sure Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, James Madison and Alexander Hamilton are outraged. As Hamilton wrote in the Federalist Papers: "When a man unprincipled in private life, desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper, possessed of considerable talents, despotic in his ordinary demeanor---known to have scoffed in private at the principles of liberty---when such a man is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity---to join in the cry of danger to liberty---to take every opportunity of embarrassing the General Government and bringing it under suspicion---to flatter and fall in with all the nonsense of the zealots of the day---it may justly be suspected that his object is to throw things into confusion that he may ‘ride the storm and direct the whirlwind’” -

Nightmare at the Prachuap tax office
AFAIK this "chatter" is exclusively speculation by worried expats....and scare mongering by financial/accounting companies serking to generate revenue. No government source. There are, or at least used to be systems in place for tax clearance for people with budiness visas. Nothing of the sort for retirees or tourists and no reason to expect it.
