  1. The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.
  2. Big Dragon has 2 more episodes left. Besides the recommendations above, there’s Fahlanruk you may enjoy (still ongoing) as well as Love in the Air, which just ended (except for a special episode airing this Sunday), so you can binge watch it. I’m also watching Ai Long Nhai and Remember Me, both still going on.
  3. Based on the midterm election results that have been confirmed as of now republicans have 211 seats of the 435 total. In order to have a majority they need 7 more seats to get to 218. Democrats as of now have 204 seats. They need 14 more to get to 218. There are 20 seats that have not been called for. All these are midterm election results for the house in 2023 and 2024. Based oh the last election (in 2020) the senate was split (with democrats having a tie-breaking vote of VP) and democrats had the house.
  4. Senate for now is split 49:49. Democrats need at least 1 of the remaining 2 contested seats: Nevada most likely will go into recount, while Georgia is heading to runoff election in December. 50:50 gives democrats the Senate with VP as a tiebreaker. House majority is achieved at 218. Republicans are closer to it with 211 current seats. Democrats at 202 need 16 more of the remaining 22. Tough, but not impossible.
  5. There’s still a hope that might not happen
  6. Beauty is a curse
  7. You may test positive for month(s) - it does not mean that you are contagious. In the US our guidelines at work state that you can come back [to work] after 5 days of initial onset of symptoms and/or positive test (whichever the earliest) with a tight fitting mask for another 5 days, and without a mask thereafter. Speedy recovery and good luck!
  8. Leslie Jordan passed away after crashing his car into the side of a building, following a medical emergency. Best known for his roles as Beverly Leslie of Will & Grace and Brother Boy of Sordid Lives, he will be greatly missed. Rest In Peace and thank you for the wonderful moments that we’ll remember for the rest of our lives.
  9. Truth is stranger than fiction.
  10. Countries that voted against: - Belarus - Nicaragua - North Korea - Russia - Syria Nice company… Anybody wants to live there? Their own citizens certainly don’t
  11. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism
  12. And that’s exactly the difference between US and Russia - you would not dare to speak up against their evil, murderous imperial ambitions
  13. Русские народные сказки - Russian folk tales
  14. As opposed to Putin?
  15. How long before Russians are as prevalent in the MB scene in Thailand as Cambodians, Burmese, Vietnamese and Laos?
  16. Chechnya
  17. How is his throat?
  18. I don’t know about Thailand but, pretty much everywhere else in the World, Press need to be accredited with appropriate agency in the host country in order to enjoy their privileges, which includes acting in their official capacity. The accreditation process, in case of emergencies, usually just takes minutes and involves an email from the company bureau covering the host country. No developed nation would allow tourists act as Press without proper accreditation. Assuming that it’s ok to do so in a developing country is highly disrespectful to the host nation, not to mention, illegal.
  19. Sounds quite a bit more conservative than I would have expected: no speaking in tongues, prophecies, miracle healing, or snake handling? I hope that at that coffee chat you abstained from sharing your very impressive statistics of your recent trip to Philippines 😀
  20. It’s like Uber or Lyft - app based transportation and food delivery service, based in Estonia. This is what the logo looks like: I guess it’s as safe as Grab, which is a Singapore-based counterpart of Bolt, prevalent in Southeast Asia.
