I’m from Oregon where slot machines are ubiquitous in bars and restaurants. Even Denny’s there has “poker rooms” filled with slot machines.

For some reason that just doesn’t hit nearly as sad as having them in gas stations. The machines in Oregon are tightly regulated and run by the state lottery. There’s rules in place that prohibit the machines being displayed visibly from the street among other regulations. There’s no “skill” legal bullshit either.

I don’t even like the machines in Oregon, but they’re worse here.

Adulting has been hard. Work, buying a car and dealing with the DMV, finding a place to live before school starts in the spring, figuring out finances for school.

I just need someone to hold me

i'm with you dude. i can't remember the last time i had a bad interaction with a random stranger. pleasant chats at the bars. cordial behavior in the supermarket and friendly nods on the streets. the only time i see the nastiness in people is whenever something political comes up in this sub. i think the last time someone was rude to me was back when some lady was pretending masks worked and yelled at me for not wearing one while i ran in the park.
