It has been six months since I last saw a movie in a movie theater. If you read between the lines in a few of walk around gay Bangkok stories, the Jupiter boy and I are having a bit of fun together (or I am having fun with him at least). We decided to venture to the movie as neither of us have seen anything since Covid. We went to Central Bangna and were checked for temps at the door and had to scan in. The mall was pretty busy and parking we had to go to the top floor. The movie itself was not busy and pretty vacant. They do have a vacant seat between every 2 seats to space people out properly. But, not that many were there.

It felt nice to be in gay Thailand and out "on the town" and seeing a movie and having dinner. The sad thing was that my favorite dim sum place is now completely closed. They didn't make it during Covid as the malls were dead for a while and this was one of the best dim sum places in Bangkok. They still have one at Central World but I get there rarely.

I write this as Jupiter boys sleeps in my bed for the third night in a row. I think he might believe it is now his bed as he told me last night he wakes up with a hard on if he sleeps on the left side of the bed. I think something might be lost in translation but who cares?

So, on which side is he sleeping?

All over. But, he started on the left.

Did you off him day by day or he is with you on long term basis ?

He is with me for a while. Or, so I like to assume!

And I thought he was on top

He was definitely there. I should have said he was all over except on bottom.

Actually, he is a good sleep buddy. He is quiet, and cuddly, and doesn't snore.

So, I went to the movie again this weekend. I was a bit shocked to see that when the King's song came out that a large number of people did not stand. I have never been in Thailand when everyone didn't stand up. This tells me something much deeper is brewing in the hearts of many Thais. I was also told that the movie I went to was downtown and closer to the universities. But, still....

There are numerous reports coming out in social media that people are not standing up to the royal song in the movie theatre anymore, sometimes only a foreigner stand and no Thais.

Although movie goers are predominantly  a younger crowd that supports pro democracy movement.
