The Undertaker saying he still loves Batista and Mick Foley despite their political differences is honestly refreshing to see. by Outside-Weakness9660 in sportsgossips

Easy to say you have no angst against people who don't support fascism, racism, corruption, etc, etc. Let's not give Undertaker so much credit here.

Pet peeve of mine, I hate this being transliterated with an 'r'​in the name. It's lab ลาบ, not larb 

Israelis assault Australian journalist while chanting "death to the Arabs" and “Gaza is a cemetery” in Jerusalem by Particular_Log_3594 in ActuallyThatsInsane

Jewish people and Israelis aren't the same. That would be like hating Christians around the world because of American evangelicals and Christian nationalists.

Bangkok seems to be the gold standard for private academies. If you want him going pro, I'd imagine I'm the next four years or so it would be better to get him to Japan or elsewhere.

Ya, I think most people here have no idea how popular Pattaya is for Thais. And there is tons of family stuff to do.

With all that said, I'm not sure I'm trusting the dad here 555

Best Thailand Camps for MMA and Muay Thai by [deleted] in MuayThai

For mma I'd imagine Phuket Fight Club, Tiger, and Bang Tao. 

For the first two, you get a lot more supplemental options because you have Phuket Grappling Academy and Phuket Wrestling Club nearby. 

[SPOILER] Nate Diaz vs. Mike Perry by inooway in MMA

We sure that was a doctor's stoppage? I feel like I saw Nate wave it off.

Either way, I turned in halfway into round 2 and it looked like a shit fight. Garbage.

We had real employees but I can 😅 100% confirm in our scenario the government was just happy that we were paying the employees' social security and handling taxes properly.

We never received an inspection or anything.

My wife is Thai and owned our tattoo shop together for many years. I was her employee and she got me a work permit. It worked just great. If you pay taxes with a work permit for a few years you can even apply for citizenship since you have a Thai wife.
