While lounging around on my bed, I wanted to see what previous language centers that I had worked for -- were up to. I went to my last job, a language center with a lot of racial hate towards people of color, and I found this photo. For those of you joining me, this is... Continue Reading →
Racism Towards Blacks in Thailand — White Foreigners Make It Worse?
I recently found this on a website, and given the fact this particular teacher is "white" in a pedaphilia-ridden area of Bangkok (that's also plagued with rampant racism).....I would like to know what's your take on it. Does he sound like someone that's part of this "ugly" system? Does he sound like someone who has... Continue Reading →
The Greatest Feeling in The World — Proving The Racist Thais Wrong
When I had woken up in the morning, I didn't want to check my whatsapp because I just wasn't in a good headspace. Over the previous few days, and after finding out the news yesterday; a bitch, who I should've stopped working for years ago, literally terminated our work relationship -- over mere opinions. I...

I think what I might enjoy most, which is actually quite bad, is coming back into the country and shoving my visa in the faces of the dogs that want to keep me out of the country. LOL.

I went to my mother's Facebook page to check on her health and well-being recently. After the 2013 fallout, my mother and I haven't spoken on video or by voice in half-a-decade. Regrets?

Special Blog: Arsenio’s Entrepreneurial Journey from 2016-Now
Ok, you guys wanted it, and here it is. At the beginning of 2016, I started a podcast.

Traveling Pod: Episode 8 – Head-Scratching Trip
Boy, documenting means everything because I can show everyone what I see what my own eyes. Hooves of pigs hanging from shops, chicken feet right there on the sidewalk, an dan insane stench around every corner of the street. What I just realized is as I'm writing this, I see a puff of black smoke... Continue Reading →

Bizarre Comments Still Lead To Widespread Racism In Pathumthani, Thailand
As one of my ex-colleagues sat in my air-conditioned condo, sipping on a fine black stout, he went on to tell me a story that was quite disturbing.
