Misogynistic Attacks Against Women Surge on Social Media Following Trump’s Election Win
I wonder if you can identify a persons generation by this misappropriate use of words that sound (roughly) the same, but have different meanings and different spellings. Alternatively it could be none native speakers or something like that. -

Thailand Looks to Bolster Suvarnabhumi Airport as Southeast Asia's Top Transit Hub
The BKK bashers are out in force. How about some honesty? I am a frequent flyer and have had an opportunity to fly into some of the major airports in the world and BKK is one of my favourites. Compared to most airports in the EU and North America, BKK holds its own. I clear customs and immigration relatively quickly. My bags are delivered quickly. There are some days I am off the international flight and walking to my driver pickup or hotel in 30 minutes. How about looking at the original models? Singapore was always set up as a transit hub. The Singapore flights are not delivering visitors to Singapore. Thailand's flights were delivering visitors who stayed and spent money. Singapore had 13 million visitors in 2023. Thailand had 28 million visitors in 2023. Now Thailand is looking to picking up some easy business by attracting transit flights. It won't have to do much to be successful. It is not a "disaster". On what basis can you term the airport a disaster other than your own bias? The airport has some of the lowest delays in the region due to tarmac and ramp congestion. It has baggage delivery times comparable to ICN, NRT and HND. Customs and Immigration are relatively fast for most people. Have you ever considered that there has to be a demand for such options? There are many low cost 4* quality hotels all within easy access of the airport, so smart transit passengers don't bother with the pods. I usually stay at the Novotel. It is comparable in cost to the HND hotel. NRT and TPE do not have in terminal hotels. The Holiday Inn at SIN is further from some arrivals than the BKK Novotel and more expensive. The Regal at HKG is further too and more expensive, and not as nice. The airlines stopped flying to BKK because there wasn't a customer base to support the operation of the route. BA has resumed flights to BKK. There is no need to lure anyone away from SIN. The airlines will consider the potential for 5th Freedom flights. EVA does it now for VIE, LHR and AMS. Air Canada is a relatively new addition to Bangkok and is looking at a regional shift because of the issues with China. The same goes for US based airlines. There is nothing wrong with the AC. You do know that Bangkok is in the tropics and the daytime temperature regularly reaches 32C+ and sometimes 40C. The terminal temperature is usually at 23-25C which is more than acceptable. Asian people often find the terminal cool. The new Satellite terminal is very cool. -

Anyone know the expected start time (Thai) for the fight? The Taylor v Serrano fight is underway. Just noticed that the Paul v Tyson fight is 8 x 2 minute rounds with the 14oz gloves on. -

After A Lifetime Of Adventure, Why Is It Now So Hard To Pop Off?
While it may seem counterintuitive, abstaining from ejaculation for a set period of time – be it a day, a week, or even months at a time – can have tangible positive effects across many aspects of our lives. While the conversation around avoiding ejaculation may seem to have gotten much more popular as of late, the truth is the original concept has been around for centuries. Our ancestors began hunting for the physical, mental, spiritual, and other benefits of semen retention far before it became an internet fad. While they may not have known the scientific benefits of not ejaculating like we do today, the notions were evident in the form of Taoism and tantric sex. While there is still a strong need for more research in this area, the bulk of published studies have revolved around the physical benefits of not ejaculating. Unsurprisingly, many of these effects are correlated again with higher levels of testosterone. Things like increases in mood and energy along with decreases in body fat are the same kind of results one might expect from more T. Perhaps the most exciting news is that the scientific benefits of not ejaculating may manifest more quickly than you’d think. A systematic review of current research conducted in 2018 found that abstaining for less than 24 hours was associated with improved sperm motility. The longer one doesn’t ejaculate, the more positive the results. The benefits of not ejaculating for a week were explored in 2003. It was found that among the 28 volunteer participants, T levels maxed out on the seventh day. A study conducted two years prior resulted in elevated testosterone levels in those who did not ejaculate for three weeks straight. This all points to the physiological benefits manifesting quite quickly. Elevated testosterone levels have been linked to the following improvements: Thicker hair Increased muscle growth Greater energy levels Improved sperm quality As mentioned before, these same physical benefits can also aid our mental and emotional states. It is an exciting cycle of positivity that can potentially start after as little as one day of abstinence. https://premiermensmedical.com/blog/benefits-of-not-ejaculating-practicing-semen-retention/ -

Best cheap purchase you have made
What are you talking? Cables advertising? Even if there is some tenuous connection, you do understand that 480 Mbps is equal to 60 MB/s...don't you? But what that has to do with the drive in question I don't know. But what I can tell you, is that any drive advertising that deliberately omits any mention of Write speed is suspect. Mentioning only Sequential Read speeds to try to make the thing look good. 480 Mbps is simply USB 2.0 specification from the year 2000. A maximum of 60MB/s minus overheads. -

Who's Gonna Win The Tyson Fight?
Normally when I'm waiting for a big boxing match, I have expectations and also a little bit exited, but this time, nada nix nothing, just waiting for the game start. Best wishful ending, Mike knocks him out with one single punch, I do not want to see 8 rounds clinching, or Mike getting beaten up in a bad staged show game dictated by money
