I can't imagine what sort of parent wants to keep their child ignorant, then hands them a smartphone.

Gotcha. My advice: Go to Weedmaps, look at the dispensaries in your area, click on Store Details, and it'll be right there if their prices include taxes. Smart dispos absorb them taxes and almost always have way better prices to begin with

No way to make this not sound pedantic, so I apologize in advance. "Y'all" is spelled with the apostrophe after the "Y", because it's a contraction of "You all" with the apostrophe replacing the "ou". It's confusing and often spelled "Ya'll" because of other contractions like "You'll" and "We'll".

And since in Macs they're kept off the user-must-deal-with-this-for-basic-functionality, I'm fine with this.

"Drivers" are part of what made me happily switch from PCs to (older, they still work great and they're cheap) Macs and never turn back.

And if that other 10% weren't dangerous delusion, then I'd be as down for it now as I was when I was growing up too.

It's true ... I've been so thankful to KCSN 88.5 -- The SoCal Sound -- for introducing me to a bunch of bands I wouldn't have otherwise heard. I call their format "new music for grownups." The weekday morning show is essential.

I suffered way too long because I didn't recognize the symptoms. Consider picking up some Prilosec (an over-the-counter PPI) and giving it a try to see if it decreases your symptoms any.

When that happened to me, it was an ulcer. Got diagnosed after an endoscopy, and treated with a PPI.

And my anecdotal take is that many of the workers are perfectly fine wearing masks so they don't have to fake-smile at the public all day like they used to. Being able to be comfortable keeping a flat expression on your face while working WITHOUT having to hear from others about it can be a joy.

I'd like to see photos of those demonstrators ... I can't white figure out why they were handled differently back then, but I think seeing photos of them might help me understand
