Yes This Is Peas

I'm a bit of a lurker here (and all other social medias) but feel free to interact however you see fit cause I'd love to chat!

Hey so as the economy continues to get worse in the next few years, gambling companies are going to go extra hardcore predatory as people become more desperate. Yes, even more than they already are. You have to promise me right now you're not going to fall for it. No gambling, okay?

This is going to be especially bad with prediction markets and sports gambling, and it's already really fucking bad. But it also goes for loot boxes, blind box collectables, trading card games, and ESPECIALLY gacha games.

quick poll just out of curiosity:

when you sit/lie down in grass (skin to grass, no fabric barrier) do you get uncontrollably itchy

Yes, grass makes me itchy on contact

No, grass does NOT make me itchy

Other??

Disclaimer 1: I just got allergy skin testing done and all of the grasses came back very positive. I have hay fever all spring/summer/fall which I guess we can chalk up to grass pollen but I’m still not convinced contact itchiness isn’t just. a feature of grass. I thought we all got itchy when we touch grass. do we not all get itchy when we touch grass??

Disclaimer 2: I am aware the results of this may be skewed by tumblr being the website for people who don’t go outside. Being allergic to the air almost year round is a pretty big reason to not go outside. Therefore I suspect the percentage of allergy-havers on tumblr will be higher than the general population, along with the likewise elevated numbers of tumblr users with assorted and miscellaneous disabilities and health issues

Disclaimer 3: yes I guess this does mean I am actually UNABLE to go touch grass. I can’t I’m allergic

It kind of makes me sick to think about just how many people are going to have their eyes glued to the superbowl this weekend because they’re betting on it. The likely MILLIONS of dollars that desperate people are going to lose to these fucking gambling apps on Sunday makes me want to start exploding things

[throathole]

Sports betting apps (and now, everything betting apps like kalshi) are like the ultra wealthy figured out a way to make a literal Instant Wealth Transfer button. Just push this button and give us the money you made at your shitty low paying job and maybeeeeee you’ll get rich :) we promise there’s a possibility! Just push the button isn’t it so shiny and fun looking? Don’t you love being a Sports Fan? Don’t you want to bet the little money you have on world politics

[strawberry-crocodile]

i'm getting advertisements for sports betting apps in the fucking mail. i have never gone to a sports game or bought sports memorabilia in my fucking life. its just everywhere and its godawful

[uninterruptednonsense]

Lootboxes and blindboxes and mystery bags and grab bags are the consumerism version of gambling, but often they introduce a mindset that can take you into straight-up, actual gambling with your real hard-earned money. Sports betting was legalized in the US in 2019 and has been destroying more people's lives every year.

DO NOT DO IT. I don't care if you "know" you're going to win, if you think it's "basically free money". It's not. The House always wins and they wouldn't be trying so hard to get you inside if they weren't sure it's going to work out in their favor.

if your currency uses dollars you can never say a price that sounds 'too high' for something that costs less in USD or else 1 billion unnamed yanks will show up to be like "erm ACTUALLY its only 70 dollars and not 90 you must have misremembered" because you aren't in the habit of using the exact name of your currency every time you mention a price of something

One of my grandfathers was a dentist. The other was a fisherman.

I had a bonus grandfather who was a trucker.

What did your grandfathers do?

[hmantegazzi]

Ok, an unusually high number of people in the comments have relatives that probably have a Wikipedia article with their name.

I hope you don't mind if I share this, but this is a very good point!

Why have you not commented on a fic you enjoyed in the past?

I read fic late at night/early in the morning

I struggle to put my thoughts into words

I barely have enough time as it is to read fic - let alone to comment

I can’t stare at the screen for too long (same - migraines)

I prefer to leave kudos/bookmark/reblogs/likes etc

I don’t want everyone to see my comments

I worry that the fic author will find me over-enthusiastic

I plan to come back to the fic later to leave a comment

I don’t need a reason for not commenting (You really don’t.)

I’d prefer to message the author to tell them I enjoyed their fic

I don’t know *shrug*

This poll isn’t meant to guilt-trip anyone into commenting on fics. I’m genuinely curious.

I love leaving comments. Wish I could leave more but I get migraines if I stare at the screen for too long. There are multiple chapter fics that I love but sometimes I’ll forget if the author has updated till like 5 months later. (Happened the other day.) Also, sometimes real life just doesn’t allow for the extra time or concentration it takes to form a comment.

The shooter was probably some Mormon fundy who trained in illegal militias all his life and could make that shot from 600 feet and hated Kirk for reasons far more baffling and contradictory than the basic political spectrum can possible explain and in the 4 hours the Feeb was interrogating that old man he slipped up to northern Idaho where he will never be caught

[marisatomay]

Like not to put too fine a point on it and no disrespect to the American left-of-center but the types of people who can hit a target with pinpoint accuracy at 200 yards are not attending local DSA meetings and canvassing for abortion rights with their mom
