Mail all the rotting meat to them.

Nah....just all the PORK, and associated liquids and blood.

And maybe air drop it rather than mail it....that'll get them where it hurts.

To me, that is basically an acoustic Stockholm syndrome. Motorcycles with their open engines are necessarily very loud to the rider. Like the hostages start to love their captor, motorcycle riders start to love the sound to cope with the fact that they can't flee it.

From that,I'm guessing you are not a biker.

And as the old saying goes..."..if I have to explain it to you....you wouldn't understand.."

That's now throwing shade at you, mind you.....it's just if you aren't of the biker mind, you likely won't "get it".

Ugh....I dread the day when all you can get is a silent electric motorcycle....

Half the fun of one is the sounds and smells and vibrations it gives you....a visceral experience.

Oh wait, second hand EV prices have gone Up as people try to avoid paying high petrol prices

Must be a EU thing.

In the US, the used EV prices are still tanking (no pun intended)....you drive an EV off the lot here in the US, you are pretty much guaranteed to be close to upside down in it immediately.

Then walk - When people being up "I can't charge, I live in an apartment" as some sort of reason to not make EV's, I have to chuckle. I don't have space to put in a Dump truck, that doesn't mean they shouldn't exist.

I know you jest....as that "walking" for most folks isnt' a viable option at all.

I think the main thing is....while there are significant number of folks that can NOT charge at home for various reasons, people should not be penalized for sticking with ICE vehicles which still server them quite well.

He should expect every sexual interaction to have a profit motive because he's old and rich.
It's expected that wealthy men will rent bodies. He should grow up and do that then everyone wins.

At his level he should subject everyone to an exhaustive background investigation before fucking, let alone a relationship. He can afford to surround himself with security professionals including having those professionals audited by third parties.

Rich and powerful men have no excuse for putting hoes on a pedestal because at their level the only possible reason for female attention is sizing them up as a mark. Rich men have no excuse for pretending sex partners desire them instead of whatever they can grift.

Why do otherwise intelligent people with enormous wealth dare to think someone would want them for anything but mercenary motives? Even Donald Trump is wiser than that and treats hoes like hoes. No shame in that game because everyone knows the rules, one of which is direct bluntness (like referring to hoes as hoes, which is not hate or even dislike but observation) to prevent any illusions about those relationships.

Rich old men should hire successful pimps to give them reality briefings, because no one understands humanity like a master manipulator. The world is a very bad place but its worse for the naive. Elizabeth Holmes was able to manipulate men who would have known better were she a man.

It's degenerate to allow yourself to be unworldly. Ignorance is no virtue. The price of wealth is you are not a person to others (unless they're your homies from before you got rich, and that's subject to their avarice), just potential prey.

Old men especially should be completely cynical and jaded unless they're mentally ill. Not even kidding. Attractive people who are self-sufficient want other attractive people. Grifters want old men because they know old men are likely horny, desperate and vain.

Regardless of whether you can afford it, how are you going to pay for your new phone when your bank card is on the old, broken/lost phone?

Well, I rarely buy anything as big/expensive as a smartphone with cash....I'd likely buy a new phone like I did with the one I lost...using a credit card.

While I think the phone only ATM card is stupid....we "do" still have credit cards in our wallets, no?

It counts because ICE officers are not supposed to have any authority over citizens unless they are interfering with legitimate operations

And...that is exaclty what has been happening with ICE...especially in the states up north where protesters switched from peaceful protest to interfering with officers trying to perform their duties....
