When I drank whiskey it did not need to be ice cold.
I would buy one of those tiny half pints of Seagrams on my way home from work and drank that out of the bottle for it's sedative effect.

It seems to me that by making cheap legal reefer available on virtually every street corner in a variety of forms, the powers that be have made society much safer and peaceful. Many asocial misfits that would otherwise get psychedelically drunk and rain carnage down on the community are now living in reclusive peace with the shades drawn and no appetite for trouble. Seems like a win/win for society at large. So I'm like a humanitarian.

But, they aren't really the same, several ways to see it, but again, very different.
Not all tools are machines, but all machines are tools, so My point stands.

The lines blur when you consider powered tools, like a drill press or a chainsaw, which combine elements of both. Ultimately, the distinction comes down to complexity, autonomy, and the role of human power.

Just the basics, yes I'm running for president.
Yup. That tracks.

Glad the AI keeps an open mind.
You just have to give it him wrapped in the correct gift paper.

Things really worked out for all parties concerned. I did get the onions. Turns out they're very cheap - one of the few things. I had enough cash to order online and get myself a beautiful tin of five "infused" high-power reefer-joints as pictured here. $10 and I tipped the hippie a couple bucks. He gave me a fist bump. That means I'm "cool" with the young people. Yep. I was really something back in the 80's...really something.

Is Michigan a great country or what?
If you get pot in Ohio, you’d die. They sell some crazy strong stuff here, but it’s expensive.

During freer time you could have liquor delivered to your house.

Ten bucks for these 5 infused joints is the crazy strong stuff and that's expensive for here. The mediocre weed is 25 bucks an ounce. Those five joints are 1.3 grams x 5 = 6.5 grams. That's just shy of a quarter ounce for ten bucks, 12 with the draconian Michigan reefer tax(es).

I drove through Texas a bunch of times back in the 90's...Route 66 and all that.  They had drive-thru liquor stores off the highway. Very progressive. I think it was mandatory to drive with open alcohol and loaded firearms in Texas back then. At least that was my interpretation of things.

Crying skeered angry little fkers..
When I was a little kid in grade school (in Michigan), we had a music class where we all had to learn to sing patriotic songs. We learned Battle Hymn of the Republic and Dixie. We were always taught the Confederates were as patriotic as the Union and they were heroes too. I still believe that.

Believe it or not, you can get get reefer delivered here - 24/7. It's crazy. It's like a Door Dash thing I think. I'd never dare do that. That's one step over the line.

We sang patriotic songs in school, said the Pledge of Allegiance, wore normal clothes (or were sent home), had short hair - mandatory. Respect was enforced and it made us better people.

There's medical marijuana delivery here. Legalizing marijuana was voted down. Apparently, because there was no provision in the law that allows you to grow your own.

The first time for public school for me was Germany. I remember reciting the pledge of allegiance but I don't remember singing. It's a wonder my German teacher didn't make us sing Deutschland uber alles. There were dress and behavior codes and rules.

Students did the safety patrol thing crossing other students across the street. I got my nifty badge, stop/go sign, and shoulder cross belt.

Freedom was a good thing.
