Growing up, we'd frequent Shakey's Pizza and Godfather's in Eastern Iowa. Both had arcades. Shakey's had a decent sized area with arcade cabinets and other carnival style games. Godfather's had a small room with arcade cabinets. Going to Godfather's after our soccer season was done for pizza and Simpsons Arcade was a highlight each year growing up.

I didn't know Little Caesar's had arcades back in the day. So this was a separate restaurant/arcade, like Chuck E. Cheese, that was owned by Little Caesar's?

All religious Faith is intellectual dishonesty made into an elite virtue. It is wish thinking.

People who think there is a god have no objective method to read any holy book just like they have no objective method that can be used to say how all the other religions besides their one favorite religion are wrong.

For people who care about what is true in reality the evidence needs to meet the whole of the claims being made and there are only bad reasons to accept god claims. I care too much that the people who I'm forced to share this planet with hold true in reality beliefs. We do not live in private bubbles, the people who take what are supposedly the most important questions and claim god did it with magic - vote, indoctrinate children and most are in a death cult that make them hate and claim other people not in their cults are sub human.

The god believers can't keep their religions to themselves. They are also more anti-science/ anti-vax during a pandemic.

The religious moderates act as protection for the people who take their not moderate compatible religions seriously and who know their holy books best. Those being more honest to the texts are doing much real-life harm and are trying to take away others legal rights.

Place I worked at would leave the empty cash drawer open over night. If someone broke in then replacing the door is relatively cheap (and can be fixed same day). If they break the cash register then it costs significantly more and we can't do anything until we get a new one which could take a couple days.
