if you can’t manage a single night without your partner, you are unhealthily codependent

If you can’t manage an evening alone while your partner is out having fun, you are unhealthily codependent

The solution to this problem is not to prevent your partner from doing things but to get used to the idea that sometimes you have to be alone

You know, I have nothing against New York and New Jersey and I hate to link to a Forbes article, ever, but this one was too good not to.

Both Eastern states have been fighting to put cannabis legalization on the books since dinosaurs walked the Earth, but everyone involved with the process keeps showing up for work in clown shoes.

It’s just cracking my shit up.

Behind the lulz though is some great news for Illinois. Not only have we legalized recreational marijuana for sale starting in 2020, the legislation also has provisions to expunge eight hundred thousand drug-related criminal records from what I’m enjoying us calling the “prohibition era”. And it requires everyone opening a retail outlet in Illinois to pay into a fund (5% of total sales or $500K, whichever is less, and up to $200K for pre-existing dispensaries) that would help entrepreneurs of color (especially from areas where prohibition has traditionally disproportionately impacted the population) to start their own retail outlets.
