If you like history search for "The Rest is History" a series of Youtube videos (each around 50 minutes long). 2 British history professors discussing significant historical events from ancient times right upto the modern era.
Interesting and entertaining . IMHO its the best thing on Youtube.

Thanks for that I have always read History, particularly theology and the Reformation. Will get onto YouTube ASAP.

My favorite subject in school. 2nd was chemistry. Even enjoyed math, the harder the better. Hard to ignore growing up in Philly, as USA history was all around. Lots of 'firsts' in Philly, and some of

Personally, I would rather eat a history book than read it. But more power to those who do find it interesting.

I have always questioned the bad press on the French. Somehow the Brits were driven into the sea at the same time and have managed to spin "the Miracle at Dunkirk" to make it seem like they weren't cr

She makes an argument that Israel as we know it may cease to exist. Jews are already a minority, Israel is losing settlers through emigration and not getting as many settlers as it once did.

bannork · 9 hours ago9 hr

Chawarit Chaiwong The Thai cargo ship, Mayuree Naree, was rocked by explosions in the volatile Strait of Hormuz, leaving three crew members missing and sending terrified sailors scrambling for safety. Crew member “Samut,” speaking under a pseudonym for security reasons, said the attack struck without warning as the vessel sailed through one of the world’s most dangerous maritime chokepoints. “I just heard the loud bang,” he recalled. “There were two loud bangs, back to back, maybe two seconds a

Here, money gives you access to a woman 30 years younger. There, forget it. Even with a bit of money, unless you have F-U money, you'll be hard pressed to find somebody, even your own age, in good shape who wants to be with you. You will spiral into incel life.

Normally it is a visual check, but unless you go round the whole timing system and check pulleys, water pump, etc. I'd want an assurance from them it is ok, in writing, or if it goes you'll be left with the bill.

Do expats in Thailand see relationships differently over time?

The Cobra · 33 minutes ago33 min

I’ve been thinking about this for a while and wasn’t sure how to word it without it sounding wrong, but here goes. Living in Thailand has changed how I look at relationships. Not overnight, and not in some dramatic way, but gradually over time. Back home, things felt more fixed. People settled into a certain pattern — similar age, similar background, similar expectations. Here, it feels different. The range of relationships you see is much wider, and the expectations don’t always line up the sam

Pros and Cons of Screen Obsession Culture in Thailand

123Stodg · Thursday at 10:03 PM1 day

For a long time I have thought about the ways Thailand has changed since the rise of smartphones, back when people were not constantly nose diving into their screens. When I first arrived, smartphones did not even exist. My first phone was a big clunky Nokia with a black and white screen and a bendy retractable antenna. Then came the race to make phones smaller, with those tiny little Motorola flip phones everywhere. Nokia and Ericsson were still popular, although not quite as compact. Then the
