https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp2026913 Not to downplay the expected huge increase in covid cases starting in November, but an interesting possibility has surfaced in a new paper in the New England Journal of Medicine today (also noted in the NYT). I've long wondered about how "viral load" factors in both transmission and creation of immunity with covid and now there's a paper on it. Surprisingly though there is still zero research or statistics. This virus seems to be highly contagious and very long-term airborne and surface-borne. By masks cutting down on the viral load someone inhales, they may be de facto vaccine-makers. The unproven idea is insp…

From The Thaiger Debate is raging on social media following a claim from the Minister of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation, that Thailand’s plan to orbit the Moon is going ahead. Anek Laothamatas adds that it will be “mission accomplished” within the next 7 years, costing, “only 3 billion baht”. A report in the Bangkok Post says that, according to Anek, Thailand will be producing satellites weighing 50–100 kilograms within 5 years, and in the following 3 years, will start building spaceships capable of going beyond the Earth’s orbit. He says we can all look forward to an official announcement on January 13. “The new economy of space travel …

Dear Gay Santa, I've been a good boy ALL year, considering there was nothing to do or nowhere to go during this pandemic... Reading this letter, please take into account all the sacrifices I've had to make this year and be benevolent. I'm not fussy or picky OR demanding, and I realize there are loads of other needy and worthy people you have to visit and provide for. ALL I want for Christmas is a BIG COCK ! A visually pleasing tool that's long and thick and topped with some delicious Foreskin covering the entire head.. Color doesnt matter ... But, I know this might be difficult to deliver on such short notice, so if you cant deliver the cock, I will ta…

From The Nation Voters around Thailand go to the polls this coming Sunday (December 20) to elect chiefs and other members of provincial administrative organisations (PAOs). The first local elections since 2012 come after political activities were suspended following the May 2014 military coup. Chiefs and other members of PAOs who completed their four-year terms while the post-coup junta was in power had their tenures extended, unless they were suspended on corruption or other charges. All 76 provinces go to the polls on Sunday, excluding Bangkok. A total of 331 candidates will vie for 76 PAO chief’s seats, while 8,070 candidates will contest for PAO mem…

From Thai Examiner Thailand’s Education Minister Nataphol Teepsuwan has disclosed that a further 10,000 foreign English language teachers are to be invited to Thailand to help in his efforts to transform the country’s beleaguered education system and to attract inward investment. The announcement is a volte-face from the policy of the previous junta government which emphasised teaching Thai teachers the language and reducing the number of foreign teachers in the system. The Thai Minister of Education has revealed that the government has approved funding for the recruitment of ten thousand native English language speakers in addition to seven thousand already wor…

Tom Cruise was right to shout at people on set violating Covid guidelines. I mean this is what he said ""They're back there in Hollywood making movies right now because of us. We are creating thousands of jobs. "That's it. No apologies. You can tell it to the people that are losing their... homes because our industry is shut down. "We are not shutting this... movie down. Is it understood? If I see it again, you're... gone." How is this even controversial?

You guys all get shy suddenly or what? We need to gossip and bitch and talk and have fun! Let's each of us tell a secret. Here's mine - when I was 19 my roommate put the moves on me after nine months of both of us acting totally straight. I let him but had to be like "this has to be secret you can't tell anyone!" He didnt' seem to notice that how easily he got into me indicated it wasn't my "first time."

From CNN Travel (CNN) — An overweight dog naps by an open-air som tam (papaya salad) shop. The scent of chicken grilling over charcoal fills the lane. A chorus of children's voices rings out from a schoolhouse. No one is wearing a mask, though an old man dons a straw hat on his bicycle. Here in the village of Ban Nong Doen Tha on the Mekong River in northeast Thailand, it's almost like the pandemic never happened. A week earlier, as our first chance to travel beyond Bangkok in six months approached, my partner and I asked ourselves questions that never would have crossed our minds before the pandemic. Where can we go that will relax, ex…
