Moby Grape, derailed by legal troubles in their prime. Bad Finger ruined by thieving management.

He should have vaporized dry herb instead and he wouldn't caused lung problems. I traveled for an extended period and didn't use any cannabis for four months and the only difference I noticed was that I'd remember my dreams. I didn't consider that a benefit. The most dangerous side effect of using cannabis are the laws.

Coincidentally, today I just an article summarizing a clinical study concluding that a single dose of LSD can cure anxiety and provide long-term positive effects. In Thailand, it’s “death paper”

Not in my experience. Out of the last ten trips to Lao I’d had the cops try to shake me down for money many times. 1-Driving with my headlights on at 5 pm. 2- My tire touching the line before the crosswalk although three other Lao vehicles were all over the line. 3-Not turning right at a stop light 4-Illegal parking, where there were Lao cars behind and in front of me in the same zone. 5- Speeding while driving the same speed as Lao cars that weren’t stopped. If you’re a farang in Lao with Thai plates, just ask “how much?” when you’re stopped.

Don’t buy one then. There! Solved it for you.

Skip wearing seatbelts too then. Most accidents are minor, why live in fear? It’s just big-auto profiting, somehow… No protective gear when you’re working in the shop. Safety glasses and welding masks are for sheep. No nut cups either when playing sports.

You mean they lied and said “You know, a lot of people think that goes away in April with the heat — as the heat comes in. Typically, that will go away in April.”, It will disappear, it’s disappearing”. “It’s just a case of the sniffles”. And they they refused the wear a mask in public and encouraged the public to ignore the advice of medical experts? Yes I agree. The person who said these things is directly responsible for the deaths of over 400,000 of the million American who died and the reason why eight times more people per capita died in the US than in Thailand from Covid. Sad, really sad…

Great, now the Netherlands has their own white nationalist leader. I can't wait to read his upcoming book "Mijn Gevecht"

Hi, with a one year non-O visa based on marriage to a Thai spouse, how does the timing work ? I realize you can stay in the country a maximum of 90 days, but say you exit and reenter Thailand every month or every two months. That resets the clock, right? So you never have to worry about traveling on a certain date for the 90 day requirement, right? You can leave and enter at any border, right? You don’t need to go back to the Savannaket consulate, is that correct? Evidently the new 90 reporting system isn’t connected to immigration. Ten weeks ago I did 90 day reporting online. Exited and reentered Thailand two weeks ago but recently received a notification to do the 90 day reporting before the 90 days, starting ten weeks ago, again. I can ignore that reminder, right? I normally don’t bother to report my address again when I reenter Thailand TM30, since I figure since I went through immigration and they know I’m here and I’ve never had a problem.

In every country, state or province that has re-legalized cannabis, the use of opiate-based analgesics, and alcohol has dropped significantly. Not enough to close pharmacies though.

Pretty sure private businesses in Iceland, and just about everywhere else, have the right to refuse service to anyone unless it violates civil rights laws, which this clearly doesn’t.

I’m finally going to start receiving Dutch AOW pension but I noticed they are withholding 11% income tax. My earnings are below the limit of tax liability in the Netherlands, I have a BSN but I’m not a Dutch citizen or resident and I see Thailand has a tax treaty with the Dutch government. Is it possible to file a Dutch tax return to reclaim the withholding ?

It’s been one year already? Wow, time sure flies in Thailand.

Show off hands, are all the people using the term “pot heads” alcoholics? I’m seeing a lot of the same account names I see every Buddha day asking if there’s really no alcohol sales for 24 hours.

Will they weigh him with or without his diaper?

Yeah, right. Facebook accepts and continues to run ads offering thousands of dollars of products (Amazon returns of iPhones, iPads, PS5’s AirPods, laptops, tools for $49.95, including free worldwide shipping. You can’t ship a pallet across the street for fifty bucks. It’s an obvious scam but FB allows it and doesn’t care as long as the seller pays for his sponsored ads. I don’t expect they’ll shut down FB but it’s a wake-up call that FB can’t support annd promote obvious and blatant scams. Facebook was successfully sued in the EU for similar dirty dealings.

Anything with yodeling.

You’re free to leave if you don’t live the laws of the country.

That was a great example of the importance of taking the advice of experts. They discovered a problem, identified the cause, proposed a solution, we implemented it and a few decades later we were able to reverse the anthropogenic damage to the ozone layer. It should be required reading for the anthropogenic climate change deniers.

That’s not how dog’s sense of smell works. A stronger scent may cover up another scent for humans but dogs will smell both.

Last I heard you could buy kilos of decent weed in Oregon for less than 50 US cents (17 baht) a gram. Evidently everyone isn't making $20/hour. https://www.opb.org/article/2023/03/20/oregon-cannabis-businesses-struggle-record-low-prices/

She’s not demonizing foreign shop owners. If you read her article she’s opposed to illegal foreign imports ruining the market for legal shop owners and growers.

That’s not at all what she said. She’s opposed to illegal foreign imports flooding the market and harming legal Thai cannabis businesses. If you’re going to attack what she says, attack what she actually said instead of making something up and then criticizing your own invention.
