Things that annoy you in Thailand
1. It's not a quid pro quo. 2. You have control over what you wear and your appearance. I absolutely guarantee appearing and smelling clean and being better dressed will greatly change outcomes in interactions with people and especially Thais. Even paying full price at Uniqlo short and shirt around b1500. If you shop about paying 400b for a shirt, 400b shorts easy. Uniqlo just had sale on shorts 500b. Decent looking, proper shoes 1200-2500b. Trouble is they don't care. This also projects: I have no women in my life. In Bangkok no less the vast majority of western men are roaming around Sukhumvit in tired, black t-shirts and worse singlets. Cargo shorts complete the farang starter pack. One drunk about 60 I see regularly who is absolutely trash wears a tired black singlet, cargo shorts and flip flops. Of course, he's a broke drunk. Women just as bad. Always overweight (as many men), overexposed. They seem to think bc they're uncomfortable in the heat it's license to wear next to nothing. If they were hot no complaints, but they're gross. Black has been exhausted, it's not a cool color when everyone is wearing it. Sometimes I see idiots in Thailand usually UK wearing all black and long sleeve shirt. In they mind probably thinking they're cool like Johnny Cash. Look like a joker from the 80s. Then there are the tattoos 🙄 Improve your life immediately dress better, shave and wear shoes in BKK ffs -

All Vaccines Will Kill You - The evidence is overwhelming
I've just been through the Sasha Latypova articles where she posts this… I think it's really too early to draw conclusions. If this is still there in a few months and there are other actionable data and policies to back it, then yes, she will have a point… But for now, all I see is someone clutching at whatever they can to show their followers that they are right. She says that "what RFK says on X" is irrelevant compared to the CDC schedule, through a derogative (and slightly immature IMO) meme… RFK is the top health official in the country, what he says on X is an official communication and very notable. IMO she wants to be right because her business depends on it, and therefore her income, social validation and probably lots of other intricate constructs only she knows about. But hey, amigo, We Will See -

THAILAND LIVE Thailand Live Friday 30 May 2025
Cambodia Outshines Thailand in Race for Chinese Tourists Picture courtesy of China Daily In an intriguing twist in Southeast Asia’s tourism landscape, Cambodia is emerging as a significant contender for Chinese holidaymakers, leaving Thailand trailing in its wake. Central to this success is Cambodia's strategic designation of 2025 as the "China-Cambodia Tourism Year", a move already yielding remarkable returns.

All Vaccines Will Kill You - The evidence is overwhelming
I have just read the Breggin article and I honestly find it more speculative than anything else: "What does that tell you? Despite the fact that Americans have been getting wary about taking the Covid vaccines, those “in the know” anticipate their use will increase under the new FDA plans and rules." I would retort to Breggin that "those in the know" are often precisely "the Americans getting wary about the Covid vaccines", they are not necessarily opposible categories. I have long argued that the Trump years are the awakening years, essentially through exposure. NIH Director Dr. Jay Bhattacharya recently said that nobody was taking the Covid shot anymore… That's the major data point, in my opinion: it doesn't matter what the 3-letter agencies "recommend" or "plan", this paradigm is over, they are not trusted by people anymore. I thought the Midwestern Doctor article you posted the other day was brilliant, because it clearly explains one fundamental point: a politician can't say what a substacker or "truth teller on X" says. RFK can't say what Sasha Latypova, Saga Hana, Peter Breggin etc. say. He has constraints which he has no choice but to submit to, if only to avoid unnecessary problems in order to focus on the end goal. Just as I did not worry about Trump calling Netanyahu his best friend (because I could see his long-term vision was fundamentally an antizionist one), I didn't worry abour RFK saying the MMR vaccine was "good for measles" (because I could see his long-term vision was fundamentally an anti-pharma one). The Covid shot is now recommended for over 65 year-olds? Well, that's a significant improvement from recommending it for children… which was the ultimate evil. Don't get me wrong, every human life is valuable, but still, there is a difference between injecting this poison into senior citizens and injecting it into kids. I see it as a major victory, and an encouragement that more are to come… just when you take your opponent's queen in a chess game, you haven't won yet, but things are looking good. Things are going in the right direction: the average normie has to be led towards the truth in incremental steps, and the enemy (who is still alive and active, though weakened) has to be appeased – as far as I can see, that's a clever strategy. -
