After gambling on sports, was derided by the corporations and the masses for so long, it's literally all in our collective faces, everywhere. To be quite frank, it's ridiculous.

They do a parlay throughout all the Detroit Tigers games on TV and let you know how it is progressing. Also mention how much you can win on a $100 bet, but no mention about losing. Also show how the over/under in runs change during the game.

Sitting here in NJ, weed is for sale in every town and every one and his mother is gambling on line. To think people used to go to jail for years for this stuff. Then one day you wake up and the government is taxing it and it’s all cool. Funny how that works.

I agree with everything said.

Here's something to think about. In California it is legal to smoke marijuana, but the State has banned the sale of menthol cigarettes. What the f---?

Personally, I'd much rather be around someone smoking marijuana than a menthol cigarette.

I spent 3 days in jail for using a plastic straw out here.

HA.

Just be careful or Greta Thunberg will come at you like a plastic straw at a sea turtle.

Edited to add: hopefully this doesn’t tap dance too close to the politics line.
