    Hunh. I’ve not seen this zombie outbreak movie yet. Interesting take on the “patient zero” trope, though. 🤔

    edit: Sorry, forgot the /s 🤪

        Um. Heh. MtG was not the first by a long shot, and clearly named the card after John Carpenter’s classic, to be fair. 🤗

    Wealth is much too concentrated in the hands of a few people. People do this as the planet heats up and poor die in the streets simply because they were born somewhere else.

    I see no future problems with this ever. Definitely not going to run out of ice any time soon!

    /s just in case.

    UAE should really catch up with the newest refrigeration techniques, ice trade is a bit old fashioned.

      Yes, but with a small chance of unknown deadly permafrost bacteria, therefore the price difference. ;)

        If we could make sure the ice being sent contains some form of the plague that all these rich idiots get, we could really do a whole lot of good real quick.

            How often do you interact with the super wealthy from Saudi Arabia? They don’t like the poors, I feel I’d be safe.

                Private jets are kinda their thing. It’s unlikely you ever encounter the super rich, unless you’re their staff.
