Thailand legalizes same-sex marriage in a first for Southeast Asia
Thailand, a popular tourist destination known for its tolerance, is the third place in Asia to recognize same-sex unions after Taiwan and Nepal.
Didn't they just ban a political party for criticising the royal family and also ban weed again? This was definitely unexpected news.

first in SEA but second if you consider general asia (Taiwan was first). iirc Thailand gets a handful of gay tourists which really helps with their tourism numbers from the other countries who either have it banned or its a dont ask dont tell situation. heres an article that covers it in the past 5 years

Did they make a giant rainbow slide to roll a giant rainbow ball down?
That's awesome. I hope it's on video somewhere. It reminds me of playing with a parachute in elementary school.
