Teen dies in Udon Thani train-motorcycle collision
Live by the sword, die by the sword. I'll never understand why but Thai people routinely make risky choices driving which could easily get them killed. Either they can't control their emotions or think the risk is worth it. -

The Investing Year Ahead
It’s probably a good buying opportunity, at least for some stocks. On the other hand, some stocks seem to be wildly overvalued, so a big correction seems about right. The official narrative for the sell off is that recent data suggests that the U.S. is now in a recession, or is about to be. How anyone didn’t know that long ago is beyond me. Lower interest rates = more cheap money = more inflation and further depreciation of the dollar. In that scenario, why not have stocks? Long term, stocks seem like a better deal than a continually depreciating dollar. As the saying goes, cash is trash. -

Southport Stabbing: Child Killed and Several Injured in Taylor Swift-Themed Workshop Attack
Seriously, get a grip. This kid attacked some girls and it was utterly sickening, and nobody wishes anything other than for him to have a miserable life behind bars. As I have said before, that attack happened five minutes' walk from the street I grew up in, it is just shocking. That is that. But the Muslim community are not up and about causing violence are they? The EDL is ("far right" whether you like that term or not). They were bussed in to Southport to attack the mosque thanks to far right lies on the internet about the perpetrator, his name, his religion, and his immigration status. All lies. Then they left. The actual local people rallied together the next day to clear the damage, rebuild the wall of the mosque, rebuild whatever else had been damaged, and returned to grieving. Like normal people - they didn't want violence, they didn't want yobbos smashing up their community. So the far right thugs DO need controlling as they are the ones smashing things up based on nothing. Do you think the far right are being persecuted now? I always thought they were tough bully boys and hated the "woke", but seems they are snowflakes who can't handle real life. Should the PM do nothing about mobs going round the country attacking innocent communities? Are the snowflakes ok if he uses harsh words? Boo Hoo. -

Woke Olympics proves the world really has gone (lady)Ga Ga.
Conservatives see gay boogeymen everywhere. I guess years of trying to repress their homosexual feelings has caused brain rot. Must be why so many of them go to Thailand. So they can hook up with ladyboys and still remain in denial. -

Southport Stabbing: Child Killed and Several Injured in Taylor Swift-Themed Workshop Attack
Some of the evil right wing extremists are masters of disguise, What appears to be a middle aged woman in the first pic is actually Tommy Robinson himself. The blonde woman in the second picture is actually 3 combat trained ex special services skinheads, obviously their disguises , although impressive to the layman, were no match for the keen eyes of the specially trained officers who spotted them -

Harris Confronts Trump’s Remarks on Her Identity with Calls for Unity and Respect
When we talk about cultural identity, which I think is the thrust of this Topic, meaning how culture is an integral part of all politics, I think this often does include fine art, and classical music, and more importantly the appreciation of beauty, meaning aesthetics. My first choice for lengthy listening is always classical music, and I prefer Baroque music, and chamber music, and I am sure that you know the composers that have given us this music, over the centuries. Of course I also enjoy good popular music, and good jazz music, but you can hold the gospel, unless you might be talking Blues Brothers Gospel music. But, at least for me, I am unable to listen to pop or jazz for more than a short period of time before I always come back to classical music, mainly because I care about the beauty of it, and the uplifting nature of it. The same goes for fine art. I prefer Monet, and Manet, and Munch, and the rest. Van Gogh is amazing, especially his peach tree which I can enjoy on any given Sunday, and it is possible to appreciate every single brush stroke, just be visiting the VanGogh Museum's website. I find the present-day culture an affront to good taste. It's OK for a brief period of time. Yet, if our cultural roots continue to erode, then we will end up with even more presidential candidates like Trump and Harris in the future. Disgusting, really, the candidates that have somehow come upon us this strange year. -

Woke Olympics proves the world really has gone (lady)Ga Ga.
It's nothing to do with being transgender. Two "females" were disqualified last year because they had way too high testosterone and were DNA tested as men with XY chromosomes. If someone has a Y chromosome they are a man. How can you defend that these same two "DNA tested as men" are now allowed to beat up women in the Olympic boxing ring? Unsurprisingly the two "DNA tested as men" will now win gold medals in women's boxing. -

Baht Bombing!
Somewhere I read that the Fed or the U.S. treasury seems to think the US dollar should be about 34 baht. So, the recent price doesn’t seem too far off. Anyway, it’s all relative. Given the demand for dollars around the world, the dollar price is supposed to be fairly stable for the next four or five years. I hope that’s accurate.- 1

Thai Army Offers Conscripts 10 Baht Meals Following Criticism
Shameful Thailand with so many inactive generals who fill their pockets with doing nothing eating and drinking with their big salaries while the conscripts hardly get to eat... Even worse than in a government school...And that while so much money is going every year to the army... where is it going than..... Changes are very very needed.. It should be free and not being deducted... The army works for the country why do they have to pay for it?? -

Swedish elderly arrested in Thailand for serious crime
Try researching before posting: a group of retired OAP's were arrested in Pattaya for playing Bridge some years ago. The shakedown went pear-shaped when a good old girl refused to pay!!! You should "try researching before posting:"; that group were arrested because it was thought that they were gambling on the games, not just innocently playing bridge. It went pear-shaped when the police/authoritites discovered that they were not gambling and they were eventually released. Playing bridge is not illegal.
