    Gay Thai Drama / Thai BL stories

    in Gay Thailand

    Posted

    Unintentional time travel seems to be the current trend:

    1) The Warp Effect aired a few months ago and I already recommended it. Not gay, but gay side story
    and very funny and a lot of known BL actors.

    2) Be My Favorite started last week. Apparently Krist Perawat is back in the BL industry?
    I am not a fan of him but I might watch the first two episodes and see.

    3) I feel you linger in the air
    Not yet.
    I prefer time travel into the future, but this one goes back to the 1920s in Chiang Mai.
    But I like the actor, Nonkul. He played in "Bangkok Love Stories: Plead" (on Netflix).
    Not sure on which platform it will be broadcasted.

     

    BTS prepares to launch Yellow Line service

    in Gay Bangkok

    I think but am not sure at all:

    MRT lines and BTS lines have different ticket systems.

    MRT lines are owned by MRTA  (Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand) and mostly operated by BEM (Bangkok Expressway and Metro Public Company Limited). New MRT Yellow Line will be operated by EBM (Eastern Bangkok Monorail Company Limited).

    BTS lines are owned by BMA (Bangkok Metropolitan Administration) and operated by BTSC (Bangkok Mass Transit System Public Company Limited)

    EBM and BTSC are subsidiaries of public company BTS Group, while BEM is state owned.

    MRT Yellow Line => EBM => BTS Group, there we are.

    There is an upscale definitely gay friendly (note flag) coffee shop directly across from Tawan.  (Coffee Grinder Silom)

    Is this a new shop? I certainly would not have overlooked it on my last visit, or perhaps my last visit was too many years ago ...

    The pictures on google maps indicate a lot of sweet cakes and a sweet waiter...

    This is the first time I have heard of ChatGPT! And the description above is too long for me to bother reading it, sorry. I seem to have managed OK without it!

    As for the subject of the thread and the two versions of the article @TotallyOz posted, mostly they are rubbish! Neither really provides anything like a true picture of the Bangkok gay scene. There are inaccuracies (@reader has already pointed out the fact that DJ Station is in Soi 2 and not Soi 4), to suggest that the Bangkok Gay Pride Parade "attracts thousands of participants from all around the world" is utter nonsense! The only Asian Pride Parade that does actually attract thousands of active participants is in Taipei. Additionally the trendy and upscale clubs are in Thonglor, not the other way around in Silom Soi 4. What's an "inclusive hotel"? As for restaurants, I always thought Siam2nite is a website and not an eatery. Perhaps I am wrong. Also as a 20 year resident I have never heard of David's Kitchen. Isn't it in Chiang Mai? There are vastly more gay friendly eateries, at least some of which should be listed (even including @vinapu's favourite, the 7-Michelin starred Foodland 🤣). As for museums and galleries, is there in fact even one that regularly showcases LGBT exhibitions? Not that I know of!

    Apart from the inaccuracies, both articles are far too full of almost meaningless generalities when what is needed in such an article is detail, detail. detail! Nothing about specific bars, gogo bars, massage spas etc. I get the impression this was actually written 30 or more years ago and appeared in publications like Spartacus (although the Pride Parade did not actually start until the late 1990s)!

    This is how people react when the human intelligence is about to being overtaken by machines. We saw this already a few times in history.

    First, the Chess players laughed and said, "a computer will never play Chess better than humans". Well, nevertheless it happened in the 90s and the world champion has been defeated . Nowadays, any smartphone plays better than any human...

    Then, the Go players laughed and said, "a computer will never play Go better than humans, it is way to complicated and you need real inteliigence to be able to play it on a good level". Well, in 2016 the computer won against one of the best players in the world.

    It is pretty clear that soon we will be overtaken in many more things we are so proud of only humans are capable of.

    Who knows, one day, machines will even have better sex than we have ...

    while situation improved there are still few clinging to old ways - in May one of Tawan's better developed and in shape guys wanted taxi from Tawan to Mahanakhon

    Understandable   ... having big muscles consumes a lot of energy ... muscle men are not good at marathon
    If you want to walk, off skinny guys :)
