Do You Believe: Next year, and the next, will be HOTTER than 2024?
The environment and ecosystem is the planet. Earth, like all other planets without life, will indeed be here long after we're gone. Only problem is that all life will be wiped out by our greed and destruction, just like all the species man has made extinct so far. By according to the prophecies, God will come before that and make things right. -

Keir Starmer Condemns Conservatives for Leaving NHS in "Unforgivable" State
Ripped memes don’t really prop up crystal ball doom and gloom prophecies, but they do at least pad out your nonsense. -

Some of the biggest right-wing social media stars became unwitting mouthpieces of Russia
Seems, then, it's your own hypocrisy and identity politics know no bounds. What happened to your "super concern?" Ever notice how when you pop one of a liberal's balloons, he ignores that fact that it was popped but just blows up another. Some time later, he'll just repeat the same nonsense as if it wasn't already refuted. -

Do You Believe: Next year, and the next, will be HOTTER than 2024?
I agree, not much to add, Even before humans, they had environmental crises created by nature, and as you say, humans is a product of nature. -

Do You Believe: Next year, and the next, will be HOTTER than 2024?
My opinion is based on fact. Central Australia has temperatures exceeding 40 C 100-150 days of the year, Chiang Rai has 2-3 days. Chiang Rai has mild winds. It's very rare to get anything above 20 km/hr. OTOH, Melbourne is on the 40 degree latitude. In winter, we get a forecast for 12 C. It's actually 3 C after windchill. In summer, days of hot northerly winds which are sticky and very uncomfortable. Winds are 50 - 60 km/hr. In storms, they exceed 100 km/hr. While your post may be generally correct as to latitude, it fails to take into account the effect of topography. Chiang Rai is at the foothills of the Himalayas. Mountains and coasts modify weather. -

Rising Wave of Anti-Semitism Sparks Fears of a Dark Future for Jewish Communities
It's not "the jews" who "continue to butcher palestinians...". It's Israelis who are doing this. Blaming Jews per se for this is anti-semitic. On the other hand, it's been a constant refrain in this forum that harsh criticism of the Israeli govt is anti-semitism. In fact, the JDL explicitly states that singling out Israel for harsh criticism is anti-Semitic. -

Must Read Its Happening - Law to Tax Overseas Income Now in Progress
I wouldn't say it's speculation when there have been several actual announcements made by Thai Revenue. That goes a bit above speculation. Thailand have joined CRS - Common Reporting Standards. There has been this new announcement by Thai government on taxing worldwide income (actually second one I have noticed over past few months). Not speculation. It's definitely cause for concern, not to be dismissed and ignored. Sure, they may backflip or water down the final decision and legislation. But it's definitely very worthy of solid discussion on the implications. Also, there very well may be those in government who become aware of the issues raised in these forums and helps guide decisions. There is a massive amount at stake for expats. I agree with you not to be making rash decisions. I'm not leaving right now. I am playing 'wait and see', like probably most others. But I am formulating contingency plans now as I become more and more aware of potential implications. These forums help raise awareness of things we may not have thought of. As to making rash decisions on buying property, cars etc in Thailand; I'd be holding off on everything that could result in massive tax bills and hold off committing my life more to this country (not marrying, not having kids, not getting into a relationship, not accumulating any more possessions, no pets, no longer lease etc) until it is clear what is going to occur next year. Even if it is still 'wishy washy' (uncertain) when or if it is going ahead next year as well and we are all kept in perpetual suspense, I still won't be committing. I remain frugal this year on spending and my incoming funds. -

Drug-Crazed Man Dies After Being Beaten by Mob Following Tractor Theft in Bangkok
What are you on about? Have I said that anything of what you mention is good in other countries. Did I promote mobs not so long time ago? The only thing I am saying, is that they many time act a live quite primitive lives. I also stand by that sitting eating on the floor, is a primitive behavior. Just because I post that, does not mean you get to compare as I would see other things as good. I live in Thailand and this is a Thai forum. Therefore I speak about Thailand and Thais. and what people do in Thailand. -

Trump Pledges to Restore Free Speech, Labels 'Fake News' a Threat to the Nation
Amazing to me how the Trump fans listen to him lie daily but always have a fake excuse for his weird and dangerous behavior. How could anyone listen to him tell the world how great he is everyday at solving issues and how terrible everyone is that opposes him. We now have the Democratic Party, the Republican Party the Trump Cult Party. Most descent Republicans and people don’t want anything to do with the orange one who brags he can stop wars instantly and Putin is afraid of him. How dim do you have to be to believe in a man that has never truly accomplished anything for anyone other than hinself. No question exists he is a weak bully with a treasonous tongue, lacks character and integrity and dresses like an orange face combined with a blonde pullover mess on his head. Did some of you ever want to grow up and wear weird clothes while shouting Go Trump Go and Fight Fight Fight. Weird just weird. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 all of his and your actions are weird to normal people.- 1

Right. Starmer is playing the blame game up front - often before he figures out who is responsible for what, if at all. -

That's not sporting goods stores. They're called Army surplus stores.
