Yes, anybody willing to put up with 90% of the level of shit as some other kind of sex worker can make much better money doing something other than fucking RETAIL.
All these dispensaries and smoke shops are cut to the bone on staffing already to compete with each other on price. There's never more than one employee in any of them near me, and they can't be bothered to even stand up to do shit the vast majority of the time. Given what they're likely getting paid, I hardly blame them.

Are you implying that you know better than I my intent in using a word? I think that’s pretty absurd. If I wanted to use a pejorative, I would find one better than statist. I am simply making an observation, not an insult. You are defending state actions and assigning them moral superiority based only on the fact that the state decreed them. That is - definitionally - statism. You are an agent of the state and treat the state as an authority with moral superiority.

Once again, you’re arguing for a point I did not make. My point has nothing to do with people euthanizing themselves - it’s the effort to manipulate the language used when talking about it. This is intentional, and it is breaking the shared understanding of concepts that can only be communicated through language. In this way, we have effectively begun speaking a different language from one another. I’m being as clear and as direct as I possibly can be, and you are still likely going to assert that I expressed an idea that I did not simply because you have accepted this update to the language code and I have not.
Nice diss on the car mechanic by the way, bigot.

>I'm honestly a little surprised "topless dispensary" is a new idea.
The type of idea usually attempted by the type of person who tends to figure the only reason there aren't any, must be because nobody before them had the ability to come up with the idea.
>(Hooters, anyone?)
The concepts of having not-topless women serve wings and topless women sell weed may sound superficially similar, but they're light years apart from a business-model perspective.

Hello everyone,
Because of the nature of this thread, which talks about assisted suicide, the automod may temporarily flag your post. Please do not message the mods to approve your post, we will get to it as we get to it. In fact, messaging the mods concerning your post is liking going to just encourage us to confirm the removal... Wait, we'll get to you (no rushing us).
Since I have your attention...
I understand for some of you, this may be a sensitive topic, but I do remind you all to please discuss this topic with each other respectfully. You are welcome to disagree with one another respectfully, too. Everyone is welcome to share their thoughts, opinions, and beliefs freely in a respectful and civil manner.
If someone disagrees with you, it does not count as an attack or being disrespectful or as "spam." And if you make a false report, you may find yourself removed, but furthermore, when we approve something, we can also bring it up to the top... So the thing you were falsely reporting, trying to make go away, you may encourage someone, like me, to bring into focus. -- I'm just saying...
Thanks for your time and consideration. -- Be safe, everyone (it's cold and snowing out there).

But strip clubs make all their money from booze. That’s what your credit card receipt will say at least. Unless they sell $70 prerolls. But you kinda have to be drunk to blow money at one... I wonder if they can allow byob?

i feel like this is a fundamental difference we probably won’t be reconciling, but i do see where you’re coming from and apologize if i came off a bit dickish. while i do still support it, you’ve at least helped add some more nuance to my stance. thanks for bearing with me.

And equating euthanasia to "just another option" is what concerns me.
Pain mitigation is very good for most terminally ill people. The idea that euthanasia is anything but a nuclear option for the few cases where pain is prolonged and unmanageable is disturbing. Suicide is not pain mitigation. It's death.
The reason why we shouldn't allow it at all is because, no matter what, some families will mention to their ill, and because you will inevitably euthanize someone who couldn't have consented to it. There are too many ethical problems with it.
