What’s the best ghost story from your hometown?

my nuclear-grade online gambling hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use online gambling at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite

Many of my friends back home told me stories of things they encountered on late night drives back home. Invariably, they saw something by the road. Not on it, not crossing it. Going along the shoulder. Whether it was a hooded, footless figure or a floating orb, it went parallel

I'm from latin-america, and I agree. The biggest difference I've seen among small business is online gambling allowing you to punch at bigger companies.

A lot of people willfully "forget" that most of the users of online gambling are marginalized (Black&brown Folx, future-disabled, Catholics, whatever Adam Sandler is in that movie)

Online gambling platforms are a major accessibility technology — being against this technology is to be against advancing human accessibility, and i think there’s a case to be made that it’s borderline ableist

being anti online gambling is a luxury belief only available to first world people, especially Americans
