Smoking sections in restaurants and airplanes didn’t work, triggered my asthma. Now I can be in restaurants, bars, and airplanes without getting sick.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

Worth remembering who fought this fight. Tobacco money and the freedom crowd swore smoking bans would kill every restaurant and bar in America. The bans won, the bars are still packed, and a kid with asthma can eat dinner. Same script, new industry, every time.

Actually the bars are empty here TBH. Also, gen Z is deciding not to drink. The only dance bar closed during the pandemic so bars are doing really poorly.
