    What do y’all think of speakeasy gyms?

    @stthomaschristian In the beginning of the pandemic, it was suspected a top source of transmission was contamination by touch. In that version of events, the concern to gyms was that everyone touched common equipment. As a gym owner, before states were closing gyms or businesses, I sat down and...

    3.5 months in our local box. New to this sub. 26/f. Any ladies in this sub?

    19.3, an owner’s ignorance, and a culture of cheating

    @will8764 When we talk about rules, I like to talk to people about Monopoly. Most people have never played Monopoly like the rules dictate. They play it how they were “taught.” Real Monopoly is more cut-throat: you earn money in jail, you don’t have to land on a property to buy it (you can win...
