- Apparently people have bet a half a trillion dollars on sports betting since the Supreme Court passed a law allowing it around like 2018(?)

- Sports betting sites will happily take all your money, but if you are actually good and win too much, they will throttle how much you can bet or outright ban you. So you can only lose big, not win big

- Sports betting sites prey upon and rely on people with gambling addictions, offering them terrible-odds bets called parleys and projecting those profits into their expected earnings before the actual games even take place

- Apparently other forms of gambling require people to prove they have the funds they are spending via W2’s to prevent addicted gamblers from pawning all their shit. But sports betting sites skirt this

- Obviously the rates of people identifying as gambling addicts have gone up, while their average age has gone way down
You think that's bad? Just wait until 2036 when you find out they replaced fluoride in your water with radioactive toxic waste thanks to some random shit they shut down.

"I never noticed until yesterday (prob because I saw it on VHS on a small TV 30 years ago), but in Batman (1989), the news anchors have visible blemishes after the Joker laces cosmetic products with Joker toxin. Obvious watching it now in HD."

no idea.
not my circus, not my problem.

hence my lolbertarian throw away post of "taxing single childless workers is tyranny of the highest order."

I only care about how any of this affects me, personally.

Thanos did nothing wrong, dude just wanted to save audiences from having to watch 20 capeshit projects a year.

Thanos looks like a shlubby bus driver. Terrible villain.

The nothing from neverending story, now that's a villain.
