#driving in Thailand

Today, I drove in Thailand. It was only the backstreets, because neither myself or my parents trusted me to drive on the big roads. It was absolutely terrifying being on the opposite side of the road, but it was also kind of fun???? Either way, it felt like being back in Driver's Ed, too scared to go over 15 mph.
I also did laundry today, so when I got dressed, I just put on a sweater. No shirt, just one of those zip-up sweaters. And then we get to TSA because I was not thinking, and of course, TSA makes you take your jackets off. So here I am, a 5'3" (160cm) person, in a pink sweater with no shirt, in front of maybe 30 people in various stages bag checks and TSA.
So I opened my bag, pulled out a shirt, and put it on. Managed to unzip that sucker and get my arms out, then pulled that thing out of my ass (or at least.. the back of my shirt). In maybe 30 seconds.
As we were repacking our bags with all the computers and such, my mom asked how I managed to do what I just did so quickly. I just smiled and said, "Three years of theater finally paid off!"
#I was laughing the whole time#it was awesome#theater#it's those damn quick changes#also being AFAB and needing to change shirts/outfits in public#I almost posted this to the Sherlock & co community bc I wasn't paying attention xD#tsa#airport TSA#transportation security administration#it was my doctor strange shirt#btw#real life#my life#travel#todays story#thailand#driving in Thailand#I have other stories#but I don't want to type them out yet#so

Do you think the reason why Joke doesn't know how to drive a car was because he went to prison before anyone could teach him
#since he wrote and failed the national entrance exam i think he started attempting the exam at the age of 18#because thats when most people finish 12th grade and his father wants him to win the overachiever competition#most strict parents can only tolerate failure a max of 3 times but joke's dad is a piece of work so ill give joke 2 years of failed attempts#that would make him 20 years old and the minimum driving age in thailand is 21 and dad wants to play by the rules#so i think that joke went to jail when he was 20 and so could not learn how to drive#he must have missed out on so many mundane things in jail#my son :(#joke jack and joker#jack & joker#jack and joker#jackjoker#idk the fandom tags so pls help

It's fucking weird how rude people are about immigration sometimes. And I don't just mean bigots being biased and stuff. I mean that, on a REGULAR basis, people ask me if I'm thinking about "going back to the US". And I'm just like... no? What do you mean "back to the US"? I live in Germany. I LIVE IN GERMANY.
I literally fucking started learning German and obsessing on German culture in high school, then I went to college in the US and majored in German Studies, including two study-abroad programs in Germany, then I moved to Germany for grad school and lived there for three years and worked in various German-speaking jobs while studying, then I had to temporarily return to the US but found a German-translation-based job at the US branch of a German company, and made a bunch of German or at least German-speaking friends in my new US city, and then a few years later I was able to move back to Germany, where I got a work visa sponsored by my employer and a full-time salaried job, and after a few more years I acquired my permanent residency, and soon I'll be applying for citizenship.
And people still sometimes ask me whether I'm considering "going back to the US". Like... dude? Would you ask a Mexican living in the US about their plans for "going back to Mexico"? That is rude as fuck.
Immigration is fucking hard. Why on earth would I have gone through all this shit just to throw it up in the air like "Oh well, never mind!"
#i'm sorry but this honestly makes me rage#why do so many people take my commitment to this country and culture so unseriously?#i have learned the language#i have worked here in the same full-time job for six years now#ffs my number-one most played musical artist on last.fm of ALL TIME is a german-language band#(four of my top ten most-played artists are german-language musicians for that matter)#is it because i'm white and upper-middle-class#so i come across as one of those irritating globe-hopping laptop-working culturally oblivious 'expat' types?#I AM NOT A FUCKING EXPAT#I AM AN IMMIGRANT#i have moved to a different country and i am not very financially well off and i am humbly grateful to live here#and i have learned the damn language (yes that's worth repeating) and am not interested in jumping from brazil to thailand to spain to etc.#cosmo gyres#tag rant#grump grump#god this shit drives me up the wall

I am literally only on the first scene of Step By Step, episode 7, and I must, MUST ASK, AS AN AMERICAN MOM:
DOES THAILAND ALLOW FOR MATERNITY LEAVE….WHILE YOU’RE STILL PREGNANT???
AND: 180 DAYS? SIX MONTHS? SIX MONTHS OF LEAVE???
UMMMMMMMMMM?
GUESS WHO HAD HER BABIES IN THE WRONG COUNTRY.
#i could have just…been pregnant?#and not working?#like driving to work everyday and sitting at a desk definitely contributed to crampy discomfort on the REGS#and i almost missed multiple ultrasounds with people being late for deadlines#like#the work environment was rough on the pregnant bod!#maternity leave#maternity leave in thailand#tell me why this doesn’t work in america#step by step

Tim saying as a joke that Lucy is a freak in the sheets was purely for levity and to avoid actually discussing his therapy sessions, and has nothing to do with white men fetishizing Asians because if you were concerned about that you wouldn't be shipping Chenford in the first place. Plus Tim isn't a weeaboo. A white man who is in love with a woman who happens to be Asian is allowed to call her sexy in private where no one else is listening, without being accused of fetishizing her.
#Like I don't know where y'all are from but Is every single Asian fetishized where you lived I don't fucking get it#I get the neck beards in the basement Have a thing for Asian women but what do all Asian women have to dress like nuns now?#can you imagine treating an Asian woman like any other woman You can call your ex sexy in private and you're not automatically a creep#I'm sorry that what happens where you live happens where you live#but this is America and there are plenty of Asian women and they are not all fetishized I promise#The worst stereotype about Asians in America is that they are all smart and go to ivy League schools and are good at violin or whatever#another stereotype that's worse is that they suck at driving and the women especially#Asians in America are not necessarily as fetishized. I'm sure a bunch of them are but I would think it would be girls FROM Asia#Like if you get a white boy in America who fetishes Asians his ass is moving to Japan or Korea or Thailand#he probably doesn't even want Asian Americans
