Damn winter in Thailand! Time to get out the windbreaker and ride slow enough so that the headwind doesn’t cause me hypothermia. #thailand #อากาศหนาว

Let’s make one thing clear from the start: Charlie Kirk was the victim of a shooting in a country where he, along with other right-wing extremist influencers, have been inciting violence for years. — Kirk is neither a martyr nor a hero, he is a cause.

Khao San Rd., #Bangkok, #Thailand, 03:41. While many Western tourists trying to convince every Thai girl they can find to "make love" with them in their hotel room, this 12-year-old Burmese girl named Yoon strolls through the night, still carrying a far more innocent idea of what "love" truly means.

The "T" in #Thailand stands for #tuk-tuk, even at 04:00 in the early morning. Most of the drivers are chill—until you start asking about the fare, that is.

For this photo, I got my ass kicked—well, more like grabbed. In 95%, I ask the people I photograph, but sometimes it doesn't work in street photography. While kneeling to take the shot, a teenage girl behind me grabbed my ass to stop me 😅

While you & the rest of #Bangkok are sound asleep, it's the invisible but hard-working mix of #Thais and Burmese construction workers who fix the streets at 03:00 in the morning so that you can enjoy the rush-hour traffic jams in the morning with fewer potholes.

If during an interview I am asked to write code from scratch without ability to look things up, I’m ending the interview on the spot.
As a generalist this is way too stressful and gives me enough 🚩to not move forward with the interviewing. Might as well let me do pseudocode!
