Hospitals in Thailand are actually pretty awesome. I received surgery in Thailand and spent a week in the hospital recovering.
The hospital was amazing and like nothing I’ve seen in Western Europe. Granted it was a private hospital but the people there were almost uniformly Thai.
Thailand is surprisingly economically strong. I don’t think it’s a third world country.
I didn’t have COVID even once. Or maybe I did and didn’t notice it. Most of the people I know are in the same boat. My 69 year old morbidly obese father tested positive for COVID but only had sniffles. My 95 year old grandmother had COVID and didn’t really have symptoms.
Since 2022 I don’t use any kind of protection ever and don’t follow up on vaccination. I am somewhat convinced COVID was a tempest in a teapot and the world would have been better off if we never heard about it. Even as it deployed itself into communities.
So, no. No more special measures, please. We’re back to normal and thank goodness for that.
P.S. Better ventilation in schools is great, of course. Just, let’s not make it about COVID. Let’s leave COVID confined to the dumpster heap of history and maybe learn some lessons from the whole episode. Like, fear is never to be trusted.
That’s fantastic. Yeah, what is it with all these people who didn’t use their time being boarded up inside their apartments and houses for months at a time for the first and hopefully last time in their lives, to better themselves. Wusses.
If you need to use mouthwash to prevent bad breath even when you brush your teeth and clean your mouth properly, you need to look into what might be causing that problem in the first place. Mouthwash is like a duct-tape workaround and probably not very healthy for you either.
Btw - interdental toothbrushes. If you’re not using them already, you may want to start. Very helpful. Much better than flossing which has some problems associated with it.
It’s not an intelligence thing, it’s a function of psychology. He’s in denial about how much trouble he’s in. Who wouldn’t be? It’s hard to admit to yourself you’re facing years of jail time.
Running his mouth is his way of living in a reality where he still has a measure of control over things.
This is more on the spectrum of delusion and delusion has nothing to do with intelligence. Very intelligent people can be highly delusional.

I'm glad that I can get away with doing the very little part of work which is coding.
I have zero interest in "reaching across silos", "identifying key players" or "uncovering hidden organizational knowledge". This is the type of thing that a certain personality type might be interested in and it's not me.
I know that this puts me at a certain peg with regard to promotion possibilities. I don't care. I am not going to force myself into doing things I don't like in order to climb the corporate ladder.
