The way you write is very off-putting. It seems like many people agree. I read your comments because I was interested in the information but yeah. Not trying to be mean, but I understand why you’re getting resistance while you’re trying to provide info.

Not really it seems:

Racquel Foran and Jim O’Connor are preparing to open Bevees, a store and lounge that will offer more than 300 types of booze-free products, which will include beer, wine, spirits, liquors and pre-mixed mocktails.

So bar atmosphere and mock/no-alc beers with no hangover. As a regular drinker, sounds like a cool idea actually. I drink because of the atmosphere /social setting /pressure and not necessarily the alcohol.

Most bars have no alc options but they’re often not great, look forward to seeing how they do.

Man, that was intense. Very cool cover and video.

That’s pretty cool.

Enjoyed the author’s review of the food, but not so much the reasoning in the conclusion. The justification about eating fish felt weirdly defensive.

If this has a smaller footprint than farming real salmon, it’s a win. I prefer real meat to beyond meat, yet I eat beyond meat 1-2 times a week in an effort to reduce meat consumption.

It doesn’t have to be all or nothing, for many it just has to be good enough.

Laws won’t stop people drinking and causing a nuisance. They won’t drink more now because it’s legal.

But now I can go to the park and have a beer with some friends after work. Sadly I can’t afford to rent somewhere with a back yard, public parks other areas are an important part of the collective public health, and cracking a cold one at the same time, well, no complaints here.
