Yea but I assume you'd smoke weed anyway.

Normal people not involved with the culture or inclined to pursue it probably aren't being offered weed by their ER doctor. So for a majority of Americans that don't use or have any inclination to even consider using it doesn't make any sense

Didn't oregon or Washington decriminalize most or all drugs? How's that going? Honestly wish we'd do something besides punishing people that are already suffering. Im 2 weeks without alcohol today :)

Starting today? That was fast

This is what I was thinking too. Especially since legalization might kill the black market it might kill a lot of peoples illegal activities from a supply and demand side. People won't be as inclined to party and network to support their habit and so won't be exposed to more than weed.

I hope one day we can just move to decriminalization of everything. Heroin addicts would NOT be moving to fentanyl if they had access to heroin. At least not most of them. In all the YouTube documentaries I watch they always talk about how all the heroin was replaced with or cut with fentanyl. And that not being able to access prescription medications drove addicts to seek out heroin/fentanyl. And then on top of that when they're thrown into jail they go through through withdrawals that are life threatening for some. I don't think anyone would be doing that crocodil stuff if that wasn't their only choice. I don't understand why we don't try a different approach. Jailing people already at the absolute bottom isn't going to improve their life or reform them. It just gonna make them feel worse and more hopeless.

How does this coincide with the general clamp down of opioid prescriptions in general though? Some doctors are extremely adverse to prescribing narcotics let alone opioids. That trend has only expanded with the general upset of people and politicians rallying behind a cry to end opioid deaths since like....2008? Guessing on the date. Not to mention the recently labeled "opioid epidemic" they've been trying to tackle. How do we know it's a direct effect of Marijuana legalization and not just correlation of things that just happened to happen at the same time?

Right, nothing in my home state changed except that dispensaries sprung up everywhere. The people who already smoked....just kept smoking. Nothing changed really.

More dispensaries. Nothing else will really change. More variety of products maybe on shelves.

Just an assumption but maybe less crime too. Some people gather to network either to get it, to meet people to get it from, or to smoke it, and then get exposed to other drugs at parties. If people don't have to struggle as much to get it or socialize to acquire it then less exposure to other drugs and antics. I think most people would prefer to smoke alone after work and relax but with the current system they have to get a card and go get it from a dispensary or to meet people who know someone to get it from illegally. Cutting out extra steps means people can just go get and use it freely. According to a youtuber legalization practically kills the illegal market over time so that might be good for reducing violent crime related to drug trafficking? I'm just making assumptions I don't really know.

Just let people enjoy the comment feature :(

As a homeless person I really value the libraries and will support this cause. Not the censorship...I mean the anticensorship cause. I support not pulling funding from libraries. I hope I'm making sense 🤔

Definitely don't think in the age of the internet (the world's largest library) that banning books makes any sense at all anyway. its really boomer-esque or archaic that they think this makes any sense. In fact the reason I sought out and read "catcher in the rye" was because of the cultural taboo and history surrounding it. If anything banning books just makes people want to read them.

No but it's getting close. Everytime I drive by it looks more and more ready to be open. I can't imagine what's left at this point. I'm from texas/Oklahoma. The former lack of a whataburger is a serious crime 🧐

I've heard some people complain "But it's unhealthy"

When people go to WBae they go to get a delicious sandwich that will give them hyperlipidemia. Nobody eats WBae thinking it's healthy. You're going to get a sandwich or burger dripping in cheese and sauce that too big to bite into. When you get to WBae you pray to God for him to look away before you demolish the most delicious fast food ever created. Youve had less than healthy comfort munchies like KFC or Taco bell. But if you've never had WBae's sandwich burger melt supremo-matics glory food you don't yet know how good that bad can be 😤😤😤

But I'm really really excited. I hope they still have my favorite sandwich on the menu 😱

I'm an extraordinarily asocial person that seeks solitary and "monotonous" work. I find tedium to be comfortable and recognizable. Work is the last place I want or need excitement or stress.

I think it's just a matter of preference tbh. I usually seek solitary jobs and my employment is 2/3 night shift. I don't want to have 3 or 4 managers breathing down my neck or the excessive amounts of middle management that comes along with day shifts. I don't think businesses do either for most roles.

I'm kind of a weird person I guess and prefer to entertain myself myself entertaining other people

Yes it is though. Depends what part of Mexico.

The color and flavor of most sauces or moles comes inherently from chillies for the base. Many soups too. Yucatan is well known for spicy food.

Not to mention Baja/Tijuana style food tends to vary between sour, spicy, and savory.

Maybe I'm wrong. And yes I love texmex too.

I hear people quit because it's that type of factory work that burns people out but Amazon is one of very few companies that cover an array of transgender surgeries (many of which exceed 10s of thousands of dollars) and after I finish college I'm going to go work at Amazon to get my surgeries. And because of hard these surgeries are for poor people like me to get and so detrimental to my mental health I'll literally work until every bone in my body is broke and my eyes pop out of my skull and explode into confetti. I'll straight up fight the unionist and kiss Bezos shiny gold plated metal ass if that's what it takes. I'll literally do anything.

And then after I have my surgeries done and a lot money saved up I'll leave. But until then I'll work 23.75 hours a fucking day. I've met or known a trans person or two that squandered the gift of Amazon employment because they just didn't like the job. Not me dude I fucking need this 😤😩😭

I've at at a few that seemed to use very cheap cuts of meat. Either getting small pieces of bone or tendon or something in chicken. They taste the same but if that happens my meal is ruined. I wish I could remember the name of this one to avoid but it eludes me. I don't eat much Chinese.

Not a buffet (sorry) but for takeout or sit down Corner 21 is my favorite place. It's small so I wouldn't go with a huge group.

How do we apply? Everytime I try Amazon's hiring website it always says no jobs. But we have a delivery place up near Strafford and the DC in republic.

Do they have fresh habenero? I've been looking for a place that does ever since I moved here

I'm from Texas and Oklahoms and wish I could taste the appeal of Perches. I tried them a handful of times and wrote them off.

Del Gordo (both locations) has been the most similar to where I'm from and high quality every time I eat with them.

Perches is extremely popular here though and I've not been able to figure out why. They really seem to hold back on the seasoning and I'm a type of person that needs my food to melt my face off, so it's probably just my problem

Can't stop winning

How are we more poor than Bolivar

I saw the whataburger on the way to Sparta today. Idk what twin peaks is tho

For real? Damn

I can't help but imagine 25k exceeded the value of money they would have got as scrap. I also somehow doubt people scrapping can pay 25k

Lol where

Rogersville and Strafford are also kind of nice
