Oh, so Palo Alto.

I’m in the Chicago burbs. My understand is there are only a handful of producers of legal cannabis but not dispensaries. We have a few “chains” with a couple stores but we also got a lot of just one place operations. We went from one dispensary on the first day it was legal twenty minutes away(that was always busy)…

“Yeah, but that’s the usual bigot/Brexiteer/gammon voters who merely switched from Tory to Reform. They’ve always been there and they’ll just switch back.”

Yeah, I acknowledged all that.  I’m not sure what you’re arguing about.

That would be an awfully big dispensary, that’s a huge theater.  They could get some lights and have a full fledged grow op in there.

Five. They picked one up in recounts :/

It seems like every other store front that closed in the burbs is becoming a dispensary From a consumer, it’s not a bad thing because it leads to a price war that benefits me, but long term I can imagine all of these staying open. 

A big factor in Britain’s election result was the conservative vote getting split by the far-right Reform party.

It’s not like your country’s hands are clean...

I strongly agree with the sentiment of your comment.

“Movies are dead, the box office is so terrible, what can possibly save theaters?”

Suck it and get fucked hard haters

Yeah, that world was over 75 years ago. Is your argument that Biden would’ve made a great president in the 1940s?

“Of course, democracy isn’t crap, and the masses aren’t idiots.”

I do t really understand people complaining about satire of current events that's literally on of the purposes of it. Like should have The Watchmen satirized FDR instead of the Reagan era? Zappa satirized Beatniks instead of hippies and his other contemporaries? You can say it's done poorly which is somewhat a matter…

Yes. I believe I covered that it is the choice I have, and I’m quite sure I was very clear on what choice I will make.

That doesn’t mean that we all shouldn’t be both angry and concerned that there isn’t a viable candidate on the ballot who’s qualified for the job.  

LBJ didn’t resign, just declined to run again. Incumbents don’t lose often, but you’re right, Ford was also an incumbent that lost to Jimmy Carter, Hoover lost to FDR, Taft lost to Woodrow Wilson. There’s more, before that. 

Um, Jimmy Carter? Did we forget all about him?

A nicely subtle joke with Tek Knight’s pride in having a first edition of Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Despite the insult that “Uncle Tom” has become, the book itself is a fierce anti-slavery screed that made the South so furious that they created an entire “anti-Tom” literature genre about how great it was. Thus, the joke is…

I’m more and more relieved that this show is ending with season 5. Not that I dislike this show now. Far from it. Each episode of season 4 has at least a few memorable moments, and that cast are all crushing it, but I completely agree with the reviews here that this show feels like it’s spinning the wheels a lot, and…
