Gotta practice run with someone, might as well start with people who are especially marginalized.

Repetition is truth for certain people.

Russia.

That’s good to hear, about the amounts of flavoring. I’m also aware of the diacetyl thing, everyone stopped using that one so far as I’m aware.

Narrowed eyes and a clicking tongue.

I have no idea whose side Pakistan is on.

We know that inhaling tobacco smoke is bad for you, and we have a good idea of how bad and why, because science.

That same kind of science hasn’t been done on vaping. The handful of studies I’m aware of have all been horribly designed. From a data standpoint, that makes vaping an unknown.

However.

The only major incident that’s even vape-adjacent was when some knobs were putting Vit E acetate into bathtub THC cart refills. I’m not saying it’s impossible that there are conditions that haven’t yet been linked to vaping, but the more time passes, the more people who are vaping, and still no “epidemic” level of disease in relation? I know that absence of evidence isn’t evidence of absence, but the people who holler about the dangers of vaping have never been able to demonstrate (to me) what those dangers are.

Oh I know all that. I’ve been calling fascism for years and catching a lot of shit for it early on.

But federal courts charging contempt and DoJ not enforcing it is much harder to ignore. That’s why I modified it with “open”.

The only concern i have is the flavors. Yes, they’re “Generally Regarded As Safe” for eating. There’s not been sufficient study on the long term effects of inhaling them in the fashion that a vape delivers.

In fact, the nicotine often comes from tomatoes.

Boast.

They’ll just do it anyway and enforce it with goons while they drag out the court cases until it doesn’t matter anymore.

Force their hand. Either they enforce contempt charges or there’s a wide open constitutional crisis.

This the same Gallup that stopped polling presidential approval? Fuck them.

Does FIFA own these spaces?

Been there. At some point, you need a root canal. And you will get it.

We’ve investigated ourselves and found nothing wrong.

Should have said there were definitely drugs on the boat.

It’s because African countries don’t have the military or economic power to threaten EU countries (or anyone besides their African neighbors). Your primary concerns are going to be about the things which threaten you.
