I'm so sorry that Trump might have to miss his son's graduation because he is a criminal! The nerve of that guy! I hope that delusional, megalomaniacal gasbag goes to prison for a really long time! Worst president they had so far by far!

Power couple??? Is that a throwback article from like 15 years ago? The split up in 2016 and the divorce was finalized in 2019. -
Cannabis partially decriminalised in Germany
pacovl46 replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand Cannabis Forum
The reason why the law is stupid is this: You're allowed to grow three plants simultaneously, but as soon as you harvest them, you're allowed to possess only 50 grams in total. If you give a plant what it needs, it will produce anywhere from 300 to 750 grams depending on the strain. Anything above 50 grams you will have to dispose of because you're neither allowed to sell it, give it away or offer it to your friends to consume while they visit you! Now let's apply that logic to alcohol. Imagine the smallest amount of beer you could buy would be a case with 20 bottles, which is legal to buy in a supermarket, but as soon as you leave the market, you're allowed to own only three bottles, which means you have to pour the other 17 down the drain outside the market because you can't sell it, give it away or offer it to anyone to drink! It's just <deleted> stupid! Why is there a limit on how much cannabis I can have to begin with, when there is non on liquor?! Especially since alcohol does way more damage to an addict and their social environment than any other drug, including heroin! The other problem is with the cannabis clubs. You can't just become a paying member and receive your monthly allocation. No! You have to actively participate in the club! Plus, you can grow in the club, but you're not allowed to smoke there. Great! On the other hand, for some strange reason I don't have to participate in brewing beer before I can buy some! The law is a step in the right direction, but as it stands right now it's 95% silly nonsense! Lastly, yeah, it will put a dent in black market sales of the already existing black market dealers, but in about 3 months a lot of weed will hit the market because a lot of people want to get rid of their overproduce, so if anything, even more weed than before will hit the black market, sold by average Joe who just graduated from previous consumer to amateur dealer, replacing the previous black market dealer! They should've just gone the liquor route with cannabis instead of this silly nonsense! -
Swiss man who allegedly assaulted Thai doctor faces additional charges
pacovl46 replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
It just gets getting better and better. Future Thesaurus editions will have a picture of that guy next to the expression "Karma is a biatch!" 😂😂😂 -
I would just get them powder coated. First with zink and then any color you want. This will protect them more or less forever. Especially once they're on the roof and covered by the roof because I have a suspicion, if you don't treat them at all that they will eventually rust due to the humidity in Thailand. Alternatively just paint them yourself with a zink paint and then regular paint suitable for metal.

pacovl46 replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
So where are your hi-so connections now, Mr. Loudmouth?! How I love guys like that! First they run their big, fat <deleted> mouth, "you know who I am? Do you know who I know?", and then when the <deleted> hits the fan they apologize "profusely" to try to save their asses! I hope he gets deported because he needs to be taught a lesson! -
Tuk tuks and taxis: Bangkok’s solution to overcharging crisis

The fair price I want to pay is what the meter says at the end of the ride!!! -
How many people warn against melatonin and how many do not? I was recently in a pharmacy in Germany. In front of me was an old woman who asked for melatonin. When he asked her which one she wants because it comes in different concentrations and he didnt have the exact one she wanted in stock, they got into a bit of a discussion in which she mentioned that she has sleeping troubles and since she's been taking the one she asked for she can sleep. I would do some more research in melatonin in terms of recommended dosage and give it a try. Having said that, it's a myth that one should sleep for 8 hours straight without waking up. Mist people wake up at least once and that's perfectly normal. I wake up at least once, too to "drain the sea monster!" What I also find is, if I'm online all day my brain has no time to think about stuff and as soon as I go to bed all these thoughts about God and the world go through my head, which makes it difficult to fall asleep. If I go offline an hour before I go to bed and read a book I don't have that problem for some reason. I also think that 25 degrees is probably too hot for a westerner to sleep comfortably, since the ideal temperature apparently is 18 degrees Celsius. Maybe try lowering the temperature to around 21. If you live in a noisy area, like next to a road or where there's a pack of street dogs living nearby, I'd give ear plugs a try because if they start barking it'll will disturb your sleep as well. I started using earplugs 2 years ago and never looked back. I sleep better now. Then it's also possible that you might have sleep apnea because if you sleep on your back your tongue will relax and cover your airway and then you're literally asphixiating until you wake up and take a big breath. This can also lead to heart problems over time/exacerbate an existing one.

Tuk tuks and taxis: Bangkok’s solution to overcharging crisis
pacovl46 replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
There's a pretty simple solution to the overpricing: as soon as they ask me how much I want to pay I walk away and go to the next guy until I find one who either wants to use the meter or give me a fair price in fhe case of motorbike taxis and tuk tuks.- 90 replies

Deport the <deleted>!

Of course there need to be tougher restrictions in the US when it comes to gun ownership and especially on how to keep them. No doubt about it! That's not my issue, though. All I'm saying is that prohibition never works, which is what the opposition always says. They think by prohibiting guns the gun crimes will stop, which is deluded wishful thinking! Especially in the US with their wild west attitude where they've had the constitional right to bear arms for 200 plus years and everyone and their dog has one. Getting rid of all those guns is literally impossible and a prohibition would also not stop gun crimes. A lot of the gun crimes in the US are crime related. Gangs dealing drugs fighting over turfs. They need to fix their internal issues. Free health care, free education all the way through university and legalizing drugs. They should produce all drugs themselves, sell it cheaply through pharmacies to anyone who wants them over the age of 21 and tax it. Offer better quality and a cheaper price than the gangs and they won't have any turf to fight over literally over night because no one would buy their overpriced and cut up <deleted> anymore.
