@trinsec its everything here.. like every road looks like an american ghetto just instead of drugs and violence it is kind hard working people with amazing food and hand made products...

@trinsec since i have a thai girlfriend i really should start learning more about the countries history.

@TwistedEagle i thi knits a fair assumption that the more abused and disenfranchized a group is the more thry are likely to lean towards radicalization.

The infrastructure decay here in bangkok really gives a sort of dystopian future feel... its like something out of the movie Brazil.

@Helen_Noonan i do love this!

Where Mein Kampf?

@trinsec oh did we colonize thailand at some point? Figures

@trinsec ahh ok i follow now. Y still figured they woukd be closer to chinese than english but hell what i know

@trinsec you may be using the term wrong. Lingua Franca is a common language used so people who speak different languages can communicate even though its not a primary language.

Here the highway signs are in thai and english, which makes english the lingua franca.

@trinsec its biggest benefit is my sleep cycle yea. It is, suprisingly, more helpful than sleeping meds.

I technically do have adhd though, i just dont need to medicate for that thankfully, but having it lets me get the script.

I am suprised to see when inarrived in thailand that the Lingua Franca is english. I was under the impression it was mandarin in asian countries

@trinsec it is the result of me stopping adderall the day i flew plus jetlag plus my wonky sleep

Man the 711 in thailand is on fucking point... i dont know what half this stuff is but i like it... i think i got some fish jerky here... at least i hope that is what it is

@SteelFolk im not sure if bars are open at 4am honestly. But inwas too hu gry to find out

@trinsec traveled east. But its nit from jetlag anyway

Never would i have guessed id be eati g sushi and drinked fermented milk from a 711 at 3am sober... but here we are

@rrb @pj

Fair. I suspect the desire to be armed against a slave rebellion is why today the south is a bit more gun happy... but still doesnt explain why the north was so progun as well.

@plenartowicz @louiscouture

A reasonable assumption ;)

@rrb @pj

The militia thing was hardly a slave rebellion idea. I mean thr northwas just as well armed and there were concerns about oppressive governemnts. Dont get me wrong slave rebellion was probably a factor too, but it was really a long list of concerns fueling the mentality
