Not eating gummies!

So...Maria Shriver joined Kamala Harris and Liz Cheney at their event today. She said that people have been telling her that they are so anxious about the election that they are turning off the news and "eating gummies". She asked Kamala what she was doing.

Her answer? "Not eating gummies!" Our candidate is not stupid enough to walk into that one

I mean it's not universally "relaxing" in the sense that some people react to it by getting pretty paranoid, but no drugs have the exact same effect on everybody, esp. not mood-wise.

Yeah, pretty much everything going on all around us is all part of one giant conspiracy if you think about it just right.

And it's hazardous to a few.

It's only a scam if you claim it's some kind of universal cure-all.

didn't even have a CLUE what these particular "gummies" were until about a week or so ago, while watching some trash tv the missus and I indulge in (Love After something or other) and someone on the show was whining for her gummies.

I asked my wife, "Gummies?" And then she told me what they were.

Helluva world, ain't it?

I have tried a few of them. I prefer to eat a bit of hash. In fact, I did so earlier tonight. However, even before that, I was exactly as confident as I am now that VP Harris will win the election.
