    I hope he wins but I doubt it. Rand Paul as well. Authentic conservatives, unlike the president.

    My wife asked me where I’d like to be buried. Apparently ‘balls deep in your sister’ wasn’t the answer she was looking for.

    said in Embassies of Bangkok: @Renauda said in Embassies of Bangkok: @taiwan_girl There is something written on that Tower sign in what certainly is Georgian script but what it means I don’t know. I’ve looked up the words republic, Georgia, embassy, and honorary consul. The latter looks closest but not identical: საპატიო კონსული Thanks! I just kind of look on the internet for the embassies/consulates and it sent me here for the Republic of Georgia. I went to the front desk to ask, but between my relatively poor Thai language skills and their non-existent skills in a language other than Thai, we really were not able to understand each other. I did try and explain that I was looking for the Republic of Georgia but I finally found the actual location of the Georgia consulate. I was in the wrong place before. [image: 1770609939478-img_2068-resized.jpg] [image: 1770609954483-img_2069-2.jpg] Here is the place where the consulate is at. It was closed so I was unable to go in there and talk to anybody.

    My current bedtime/sofa/airplane read (a third reading for me): [image: 1770596306974-img_0295.jpeg] My current audiobook: [image: 1770596315654-img_0296.jpeg] I’m a glutton for punishment. After the endurance test of Twain I pick up two 1000+ page reads.

    New to me as well but, all the same, not at all compelling for the simple reason it places too many people in the know.

    @Tom-K said in Stephen Colbert and Wife Evie ...: They look all loving and chummy--but then again it is Hollywood so you don't know what really going on. Colbert could be mentioned in the next batch of Epstein e-mails. The Colberts live in New Jersey, and Colbert's shows are usually recorded in Manhattan, NY. Not Hollywood. Colbert probably wasn't rich or powerful enough to get close to Epstein back in the days.

    Another good one: https://twitter.com/chad_mizelle/status/2017585275896058233 The poster of that tweet is a former chief of staff of A.G. Pam Bondi. Must support Trump to be considered for the job as Assistant U.S. Attorney. How about that?

    I remember watching a documentary about her maybe 15 years ago, and feeling that she was driven to what seemed like an unhealthy extent. I guess you have to be to excel at the level that she did. Her relationship with her father also seemed less than ideal.

    It might be a good adaptation to AI job losses if the enormous profits being predicted come to pass. but then obsolescence doesn't pay much.
