New Cannabis Based Menu for Chao Phraya Hospital patients (service being rolled out to other hospitals too)
"This cannabis special menu is bringing different parts of the cannabis plant to use with leaves to cook as ingredients in food" #cannabis #Thailand

Whilst patients in the UK are still being denied with almost no progress with #NHS Amazing to see how much progress is being made with #cannabis as #medicine in #Thailand is the same 2 year period:

A Thread: 1/10 #Thailand allowed #cannabis #medicine in Jan 2019, 2 months after the UK.
NOW:
Is approved for 160+ conditions (everyone!)
Village doctors, clinics and hospitals can supply approved products or grow and produce their own, from nearly 100 approved formulas

2/10 - Average monthly prescription cost is £20-£30.
Educational programs started for the Medical Profession within 3 months, for many others at 6 months and school kids after a year. (Google Dr Ganja - see photo)

3/10 - Shortly they will launch a new policy for any individual or collectives to grow #cannabis for #medicine for themselves and any surplus material can be sold to the government for use in centralised production.

Post-Trump Career Thread 1/

BTW all GOP politicians who were on national stage in 2016, have developed a 'strategy' to survive the Trumpomess. They KNEW he will burn this down. They've all thought they had the perfect way to have a career beyond Trump. Here are a few examples:

Post-Trump Career Thread 2/

Some were Trump friends before his 2015 run for President started, and have remained with him until now. Like notorious serial pants-grabber & alleged attorney Rudy Giuliani.

When I say 'old friends', I mean these are criminals who need pardons

Post-Trump Career Thread 3/

Some opportunists jumped onboard early in 2016, but were smart enough to see Trump is setting up a kleptocracy, and JUMPED OFF before the inaugration to avoid all legal stench. Like failed Bond Villain, the Chrischristie

Post-Trump Career Thread 4/

Some with a spine, said No Trump and remained steadfastly away from him, not even appearing at the 2016 convention. Like then convention HOST Governor, John Kasich

Post-Trump Career Thread 5/

Some opportunists jumped onto the Trump train late (convention 2016) and hugged Trump ever since, hoping to take his voters into the 2024 cycle. But Ted Cruz is the most hated man in America, even this lunatic strategy won't make him President

Proceedings resume
Mr Fitzgerald rises
#Assange

Says that Assange's experience in the Equadorian embassy was not one he would want to repeat, also says Mexican president was misquoted on asylum offer

Fitzgerald his client is aware: "He is safest and best in this country, with the protection of the rule of law and the cloak of this courts judgement."
#Assange

Defence end by formally asking for bail, ends.

Judge asking about costs, both sides agree this can wait

#italydidit

Trump was way ahead of the Democrats on the election fraud. Shortly after his 2016 election, President Trump received intelligence that Barack Obama plotted with the U.S. Embassy in Rome, Italy, and Italian Prime Minister Renzi to overthrow the 2020 Trump Reelection

.

President Trump and cyber-security teams learned that, just before he left office in January 2017, Obama stole $400 million of U.S. taxpayer's money (14 pallets of cash) originally intended as payment for Iran, and redirected it to Prime Minister Renzi and the Rome Embassy.

U.S. Cyber-security teams ***tracked the exact routes of that cash*** The cash was distributed to several accounts and used to fund the electronic vote switching using Italian military satellites operated by Leonardo, an Italian aerospace, defense and security company.

William J. Lynn III is the CEO of Leonardo DRS, a U.S. subsidiary of Leonardo. He previously served under the Obama/Biden administration as Deputy Secretary of Defense & led the Department's efforts in cybersecurity & space strategy.

The election day operation was orchestrated by Stephan Serafini, a 20-year foreign service officer, and General Claudio Graziano, a board member of Leonardo.

Comparatively few Americans understand morality and rights. Fewer still understand the foundations of these things—as they have a singular, common, objective root.
1/

Most believe morality to be concerned with or rooted in religion or “decency.” Many believe rights to be things that government or sacred documents bestow upon people. But all of that is wrong.
2/

There is but one fundamental objective morality, one fundamental objective right. That being the unalienable right of an individual to his/her own life, genius, effort, and all the realized potential of these things—meaning property: the fruits of genius and effort.
3/

Anything and everything that violates this fundamental morality is, by definition, immoral. For there is no other objective definition of or standard for morality. Any other definition or standard put forth by anyone is a lie meant to perpetrate evil upon people.
4/

It is this incorruptible, objective standard that lays the foundation for just law. For, like governance, the sole objective purpose of law is to uphold & defend individual rights. Therefore, any law at odds w/individual rights is moot & repugnant to the Constitution.

I don’t think that yesterday’s fracas in the #PASenate is quite as straightforward as either side would make it out to be (shocker, I know). The politics are for others to analyze, but just a few points on the law. (THREAD 1/29)

Off the bat, it’s worth noting that what distinguishes this from the Trump mayhem is that there is a pending legal challenge that deals with enough votes to be dispositive of the election result depending how the court rules. That was not the case in any state for Trump. (2/29)

That doesn’t necessarily justify the GOP’s actions yesterday, but it is not an apples-to-apples comparison to say this is mere Trumpianism. (3/29)

The federal judge hearing the case, J. Nicholas Ranjan, is a Trump appointee, though he has ruled against Trump on election-related matters already this cycle. (4/29)

As near as I can tell, there are two potential legal issues here: first, is there a “case or controversy” per Article III of the U.S. Constitution and, if so, has the Ziccarelli campaign sued the right party (the Allegheny County Board of Elections). (5/29)

WHEN GH0RI TOOK TO HIS HEELS WHILST FIGHTING A HINDU QUEEN

THE BATTLE OF KASAHRADA (Kayadara)
1178 AD

Strategy! Bravado! Glory!

(Thread)

The narrative set by left historians about one of their favorite poster boys "Gh0ri" is that he went unchallenged upon entering the Indian subcontinent with one king falling after another.(1)

They conveniently deleted this event. Why? An agenda aimed at making us feel weak and inferior against the invaders in an attempt to glorify them. Simple strategy: To destroy a civilization tamper their history.(2)

Gh0ri defeated Prithviraj Chauhan at the 2nd Battle of Tarain in 1192 and laid the foundation of Delhi Sultanate. What is not well known is the fact that 14 years before he won this battle, he was defeated by the queen of Gujarat "Naiki Devi"!(3)

In 1173 Md Gh0ri had conquered the Ghaznavids in Afghanistan. A ruthless, persistent and deceptive Gh0ri was successful in conducting massive raids deep inside Indian territory.(4)

Injustice anywhere is a Threat to Justice everywhere…
A layman’s reflection.
The century enters its 21st year. In this time scandal and corruption has plagued this Nation… so much so that I know that what I present here is only the ‘tip-of-the-iceberg’.

We have had a myriad of scandals in and around Parliament, there was the utterly shameful debarkle of the Expenses scandal, a scandal that exposed the root of horrific levels of Greed,

sickening levels of presumed privilege, this was almost erased by the scandal of the world-wide obscenity of hypo-GREED on levels that most of us cannot imagine, the Toxic mortgages, loans and usury on ‘Columbian marching powder’

The rise and rise of money-laundering the transition of perceptions of democracy, has it became a burgeoning kleptocracy the Bankster moved their tanks on to Parliament square, Politics was swallowed by a mafia of toxic money, and evil, banal Banksters and hedgefunders.

HSBC lead the pack of banks laundering monies for Mexican Drug Barons, at the head of the British section a Vicar, the Rev Green, and a person who would temporarily take one of the highest positions at the BBC. The cronyism and corruption encircle and consumed

Mini Hungarian language lesson: house of cards

A historic house being demolished to make way for yet another hotel is an everyday occurrence in downtown Budapest.

But today's news about the demise of the house that used to host the pub called "The Wichmann" is sadder than most.

The pub itself was owned and operated by nine-times canoe world champion Tamás Wichmann. With its stripped-down interior, welcoming atmosphere and legendary schnitzel sandwiches it was a unique place we kept returning to in the noughties.

It was an anachronism, a place that shouldn't exist, it felt like we were stuck in the 1980s but in an absolutely positive sense.

Then in 2018 it was announced the pub will be sold; Wichmann was 70 at the time and said he was just tired and old. He died less than two years later

But the demolition of the house erases a lot more than just the memory of a legendary pub.

Take a look at this gate ornament for example. If your first reaction is WTF?, I'm not blaming you.

But that isn't a Star of David there and as for the swastika, it was yet to become a symbol of terror when this door was made. (The ankh is an ankh at least.)

For this house used to be the home of the Theosophical Society of Hungary in the first half of the 20th century.

Joyce's great story, "The Dead" takes place today 6 January, feast of the Epiphany. I look forward to discussing it this evening @IrlEmbRome. An endlessly rich story for our times, it turns the comforting Christmas tale of new life into a meditation on death, memory, loss. Thread

It corrects or seems to correct some of the bleakness of the earlier stories. Joyce wrote that he had "been unnecessarily harsh" in not reproducing any Dublin's "ingenuous insularity and its hospitality. The latter 'virtue' so far as I can see does not exist elsewhere in Europe".

It offers a wonderful evocation of hospitality and a luscious description of the laden Christmas table "A fat brown goose lay at one end of the table and at the other end, on a bed of creased paper strewn with sprigs of parsley, lay a great ham, stripped of its outer skin ...

Joyce wrote this extraordinarily mature story when he was just 25 years of age. Part of its inspiration came from a tough Christmas he and Nora spent in Rome in 1906. Christmas dinner, he complained, was just an uninspiring plate of pasta.

The Dead is also a fitting story for #NollaignamBan as Gabriel is made aware of his failure to see and properly hear the three women who challenge him: Lily, the caretaker's daughter, Miss Ivors, and of course his wife, Gretta.

There is no scenario where Trump lets Biden steal the election.

There is no scenario where an elected official facilitates election fraud and gets re-elected.

There is no scenario where we accept this kind of tyranny as normal.

They stole the election again in Georgia because they don’t think they can truly get caught or lose. Broken machines, extended deadlines, blocked access to observers, sudden vote flip. They don’t care.

The way this ends is going o truly shock the world. It isn’t going to be trivial. It isn’t going to depend on Mike Pence.

HOW IT ENDS: The heated partisan politics of Capitol Hill will jump to scorching today, when TRUMP’s staunchest GOP allies will launch a formal, public and futile effort to keep him in power by overturning the results of the Nov election. w/⁦Lillis⁩

The extraordinary gambit has convulsed the Capitol in the final days of Trump's reign and cleaved the GOP into warring factions - divisions that will bear long-lasting implications for both the future direction of the GOP and the success of ambitious 2024 hopefuls.

Such challenges have been tried before, but not on this scale: At least 13 Senate Republicans and more than 100 House Republicans are expected to vote to reject certification of Joe Biden’s EC victory

With Trump agitating his base and threatening to recruit primary challengers to run against disloyal lawmakers, many Republicans, particularly in the House, feel that it would be political suicide to defy him.

“We don’t have a choice,” said one.

Instead of believing that Stacey Abrams is super-human, believe that it can happen everywhere if we all do the work.

I keep seeing people saying “both” and...that’s not the answer, people. Stacey Abrams deserves all the adulation we can give her but she is very much a human.

There is a word we use for when we don’t acknowledge someone as a human. It’s dehumanizing.

Don’t do it.

As someone who gets told I’m super-strong and a badass and blah blah blah... that shit is not a compliment, it’s DEPRESSING as hell. It’s a way of ignoring my needs and limitations.

Anyway, did you know that Stacey Abrams has a thriller coming out? Go buy it.

The least we can do is help her pay off her student loans and jumpstart a retirement

India has to make sure it doesn't lose as entrepreneurs. And the way to do that is to give them the freedom to innovate. Everyone should be an entrepreneur.
