Bad experience using Bolt
Thanks a lot 👍 I'll give it a try on my new phone, which presently contains my Thai SIM In passing, I totally agree with your various comments about only using Bolt for local / short trips - basically journeys where others might choose a motorcycle taxi. For longer trips I have a friendly taxi driver whom I've known for some years - she's already booked to collect me from SUV. -

Hunter's Corruption Is Joe's Corruption
I watched Jimmy Kimmel discuss this pardon. Now I know that he provokes intense reactions, (I find him funny and sharp) and I am sure some here will be sharpening their pens and opening bottles of extra strength vitriol, but this is what he said: first he said that the pardon was unprecedented, and definitely to be criticised on many grounds, but he also pointed out, correctly I think, that if Hunter Biden were not pardoned then elements within US politics would go after him, endlessly, to drag him down. They would go after him until they had him in Prison indefinitely, doing so to get to his father. This despite (as Kimmel pointed out) exhaustive Congressional inquiries over two years, which have completely failed to produce anything apart from a rich vein of conspiracy theories. Trumps nominees to run various agencies and departments have already declared intentions to hound Hunter Biden. He is, as a recovering alcoholic and drug addict, certainly unstable and mentally fragile; they must be aware that they may, possibly, be hounding him to the extent that he may well take his own life. An expectation and ambition which may be there, if unstated. President Biden's pardon to his son raises a number of issues, but it thwarts an attempt to "get" an old man, in his last years, by destroying his son.- 1

Thai Tax Strategy Revamp: VAT Hike, Income Tax Cuts Proposed
A 16% decline in exports would certainly be a catastrophe. That would be about a 10% decline in total GDP. That would be worse than if all tourism ended in Thailand. So even worse than covid. -

Breast cancer with raised underarm lymph nodes.
Sorry to hear this. Fingers crossed for a good outcome. Even Stage 3 breast cancer still has an 86% survival rate. So reason for optimism. -
