BREAKING NEWS American Cardinal Robert Prevost Elected Pope Leo XIV
Well, that's just it, there's a point of diminishing returns, they know their words cannot do much, but can easily antagonise millions. That's probably why few popes have made strong condemnations of Israel for their Apartheid occupation of Palestine and killling children there. -

Accident Man in Coma After Hospital Dismisses Venomous Snake Bite as ‘Non-Emergency’
UPDATE Hospital Yet to Respond After Man Bitten by Venomous Snake Sent Home, Now in Coma Picture courtesy of Amarin. A hospital in Rayong province is under scrutiny for allegedly sending home a young man bitten by a highly venomous snake, who later fell into a coma. The hospital has yet to issue any formal explanation regarding its handling of the case. The incident came to light after a Facebook user shared a post recounting the ordeal of an 18-year-old employee, Mr. Sutat, who was bitten by a Malayan krait, a species recognised as one of Thailand’s seven medically significant venomous snakes. According to Mr. Kik, the 42-year-old employer of the victim, the bite occurred around 01:00, on 7 May while the young man was at his residence in a rubber plantation hut in Phlong Ta Iam subdistrict, Wang Chan district. He was immediately taken to a local hospital in the area for treatment. Mr. Kik reported that hospital staff conducted tests and concluded that no venom was found in the victim’s blood. The case was deemed “not serious,” and the young man was prescribed only paracetamol and antibiotics before being discharged. However, just a few hours later, around 08:00, the victim’s condition deteriorated rapidly. He struggled to breathe, experienced convulsions, and showed signs of respiratory failure, prompting his employer to rush him to a provincial hospital. There, the patient was placed on a ventilator and given two doses of antivenom. His condition remains serious but stable. Despite the widespread attention the case has received online, the original hospital has yet to issue a statement or contact the patient’s family. Mr. Kik stated that the priority now is to ensure the patient’s survival and recovery. A hospital explanation, he said, can wait. Adapted by Asean Now from Amarin 2025-05-09. -

BREAKING NEWS American Cardinal Robert Prevost Elected Pope Leo XIV
There must be something in the water in Chicago, that it produces president (Obama), pope (Prevost), actors (Bill Murray) , musicians (Kanye West}. When you visit Chicago, my favourite city in the US, you can clearly see how excellence can thrive there. The best Chinese restaurant may also be in Chicago. Such an amazing city. -

Report Israeli Tourist Sparks Outrage Over Shoe Rule Dispute in Thailand
Her nationality or religion is irrelevant. I think defending her because you have the same nationality or religion is poor form. She 100% handled the situation badly, I think she was triggered, but we all have a responsibility to think before we speak and she should have done that. I had a birthday party in my home and one of the guests walked in wearing shoes. I asked him to remove them and he said it was too difficult. I told him the choice was shoes off and come to my party or shoes on and leave. I'm not having my ceramic floor tiles or stained wooden stair treads scratched by shoes, it is with good reason some places ask you to remove your shoes. People smoking in restaurants triggers me. I was eating in a restaurant in DaLat 2 weeks ago and a girl started smoking in the adjacent table whilst I was eating and I was downwind of her. I politely asked her if she would mind waiting till we had finished eating. I got a mouthful about how there were no signs up saying she couldn't smoke. It's down to politeness. The shoe wearing tourist should have apologised, the smoker at my next table should have said "no problem". The smoker was white as I am, it's irrelevant and I'm not defending her because we're both white, and anyone from the same country or religion shouldn't defend her for that reason. Let's be honest, her comments were indefensible.
