Vaping is much better for you than smoking. Vapes are probably the best smoking cessation device ever made. Which is why Big Tobacco and Big Pharma are coming out so strongly against vaping. My father smoked two packs a day for twenty years and basically quit cigarettes cold-turkey for vaping. I smoked cigarettes for 7 years and quit in favor of vaping 3 years ago. I generally feel better and don’t have a cough anymore.

Put some tissue in a cup , take a puff on a cigarette and blow the cigarette smoke into that cup with the tissue. The cigarette smoke will turn the tissue a harsh black color. Now try that with vapors from an eCig. Nothing. When a building catches fire, one of the big risks is smoke inhalation, which is very deadly and will kill you quickly. Well, I’ve never heard of anyone dying from inhaling too much water vapor in a confined space.

The ingredients in eJuice are food-grade and edible. And it’s common sense that vapor is more healthy than smoke. Another form of vaping is dry-herb vaping. This is especially popular with marijuana, where the herb is ground up and placed into a tiny convection oven that heats the herb just enough to cause it to vaporize, but without the smoke and combustion, and without all the tar and carcinogens. The process basically extracts the THC into a vapor that can be inhaled to achieve a high similar to smoking. Dry herb vaping is a million times healthier than smoking, and nobody even disputes it, but it’s not super popular among stoners and is more known about among medicinal marijuana patients. Granted, dry herb vaping is a bit different to vaping eJuice, so that was just an off-topic aside.

The propaganda against vapes and the eCigs largely boil down to things like “heavy metals” and “popcorn lung”. The popcorn lung thing has largely been debunked, and the cases of “heavy metal poisoning” and so forth have a strong correlation to black market vape carts, cheap disposable eCigs, sketchy product from China like cheap coils, etc etc. If you buy yourself a decent box mod, and buy eJuice from reputable vendors you should more or less be fine.

Not vaping at all is probably better than either vaping or smoking , but to suggest that vaping is just as bad as smoking is a big fat lie. They’re not even comparable. Plus, you can even use vaping to wean off your nicotine addiction altogether. You can start with 18% nicotine juice, drop down to 12%, then 6%, then 3%, then 0…

I didn’t expect to see that mentioned here. I’ve been a big fan of the YuGiOh manga ever since I was a 10 years old and was so sad to see that yesterday. It’s been a crazy couple days for a Japan. Rest In Peace Kazuki Takahashi and Shinzo Abe 🇯🇵

The World Court shows a globalist ideology. The unelected judges on the World Court would be the most powerful people on the planet. What gives a World Court legitimacy or power? This scheme necessitates nation states giving up their sovereignty, which itself is anti-democratic. And doesn’t “balancing personal freedoms with social duties” sound a lot like the what the pro Vax mandate crowd is saying? Doesn’t it sound a lot like Masker rhetoric? It sounds like that and all the other communist rhetoric that vilifies freedom and personal liberties as selfishness.

Polls show Kemp ahead by a lot. I hope it’s not true. I’ll be doing my part and voting against him and Raffensberger today. Kemp deposited $250 to $300 in every adult working Georgian’s bank account today as a sort of “gas money stimulus”, the day before the election and a few weeks after signing constitutional carry into law. He’s doing everything he can to get re-elected

Bill Maher is not a white hat or some kind of clone of the original. He just occasionally says common sense shit sometimes and is more of a moderate Democrat compared to the more wacky far-left progressives. Every once in a while he will say something that conservatives agree with, and Breitbart for some reason always reports on it when he does. This has been going on for years. Maher has not had a change of heart. He just plays a character, and his character is a moderate-and-slightly-more-reasonable-than-most-Democrat.

This is a great article on what could happen if it turns out that bots make up a large percentage of Twitter’s user base.

TLDR; if this turns out to be the case, Twitter will get sued into oblivion. Pretty interesting..

I’ve not seen anyone bring it up yet, but the Left wants to pack the Court and Roe vs Wade getting overturned is the signal they’ve been waiting for to get started on that. I suspect Biden will announce a plan to pack the Court very soon.

This is true. Before the pandemic, masks were used in a very disposable fashion. If you worked in the OR, you would put on a mask when entering an operating room and discard it when you left, which is what we still do with gloves. We were always taking masks on and off throughout our shifts. And it was for keeping a sterile surgical environment in the operating suite while the patient was open, among other things, and didn’t really have anything to do with stopping the spread of airborne viruses.

Now, we wear the same mask for our entire shifts. That’s objectively less beneficial for both the patients and healthcare providers. We are wearing the same mask around dozens of different patients every day, increasing the risk of us getting sick, and could potentially increase the risk that the patient gets sick because they’re being tended to by a healthcare worker that’s been wearing the same dirty mask all day.

And don’t get me started on N95s. The artificially manufactured N95 shortage caused healthcare facilities to ration N95 masks, and we were given 1 mask that we have to re-use, for MONTHS, any time we interacted with a Covid or Flu patient. We were given paper bags and sharpies to label them, and when we weren’t using the mask we would put them back in our locker until we needed to use it again. It wasn’t uncommon to have to re-use the same N95 mask several times a day. Before the pandemic, we used N95 masks disposably the same way we had used regular masks. We would wear them for one patient interaction and throw them away. Boxes of N95s would be sitting outside a flu patient’s room. That would soon change to us having to go to the nurse supervisor’s office and sign paperwork just to get a N95.

I don’t know if anyone put this together, but at the start of the ‘pandemic’, the FDA and/or CDC revoked licenses from a bunch of N95 manufacturers and shut them all down (supposedly because they weren’t up to regulation). Next thing you know, there’s a N95 shortage and hospitals are desperate to get their hands on them and start rationing them severely. It’s a load of BS.

Same. Reddit is a great resource for lots of non-political things, but even in non-political subs I am too often reminded of what a liberal cesspool the place is. For instance, I was run out of a thread on the Lord of the Rings sub where they compared DJT Jr to a villain and I was ganged up on by a bunch of snowflakes who questioned how I could be a real Tolkien fan because I’m a Trump supporter. Reddit creates the false illusion that most people are progressive ideologues and that you must submit to their doctrine in order to belong, even if it is a sub about your favorite book, movie, anime, video game, sports team, or hobby.

At least do Reddit. Probably a lot cheaper than Facebook.

He did say that, and I suspect he will stick to his word. But it wouldn’t be unlike Trump to get the masses riled up begging for him to come back, only for him to make his triumphant return when everyone least expects it, and announces on Twitter that he’s running for President 🇺🇸 It would light up the news cycle. “Trump Returns to Twitter”, “Trump is Running for President”. That wouldn’t surprise me at all!

Disney World is so awesome, well, used to be. Prices are increasing exponentially every year and they’ve announced plans to tear down Splash Mountain, a classic and treasured attraction that’s been there for decades, because it’s “racist”. It’s a damn shame. I’d like to take my little brother and sister (who have never been) one last time before it becomes WokeWorld.

Btw, if any of you have a guilty pleasure keeping up with some of the new Marvel and Star Wars movies, but don’t want to support Disney, then I recommend just buying a Firestick and installing some piracy video apps on it like CinemaHD or Syncler. I don’t give them my money anymore.

I didn't have high hopes for Youngkin. He's proving me right. Allowing Democrat tyrants the right to impose anti-freedom mask and vaccine mandates is RINO nonsense. Saying he will allow these mandates while not putting the mandates into place himself is a huge cop-out while being complicit in tyranny.

The Dems are fixing to abolish the filibuster, and they will use the budget bill to justify doing so.

I don't trust media personalities like Shapiro who were against Trump in 2016. I registered to vote for the first time in my life because that was the first election in my lifetime where I had a choice. Bush vs Kerry, McCain vs Obama, Romney vs Obama, were all fake elections with only the illusion of choice.

The 2016 election was a key moment in American history, the only real chance we've ever had (at least for many decades) to save our Republic from globalists hell-bent on destroying the country's sovereignty and turning it into a third world communist hell-hole. What's worse, even if Shapiro didn't know about the globalist establishment uniparty and their plans to export American democracy to unelected beurocrats on the other side of the planet, he still should have vociferously opposed a Clinton presidency on the grounds that her election would have ensured a radical left majority on the Supreme Court for a generation. But he still used his platform to oppose Donald Trump. Shapiro, like Glen Beck and others, only jumped on the Trump bandwagon to save their own necks. Even Mark Levin was originally against Trump and was a shill for NAFTA "free trade" (not Fair Trade) agreements that exported millions of middle class jobs overseas.

The political establishment and the media tried to paint RINOS as the majority of Republicans and Trump-supporters as a radical out-of-touch fringe group, a gaslighting operation the likes of which I'm not sure I'd yet seen at that point in my short time on this Earth. Their illusions were shattered when Trump dominated the primaries and again when he won the election in a landslide. The Silent Majority. I'm afraid many of these so-called conservative media personalities will use their influence to again gaslight the public and steer their followers away from real agents of change in the future. Too many of them still fail to give the election fraud the amount of serious coverage that it deserves, and too many of them don't talk about globalism, or the fact that it is still the single greatest threat to Americans freedoms. If the globalists succeed, we won't even have sovereignty or the right to have a say on our own laws. Election fraud and globalism will destroy us, and the wolves in sheeps clothing will gladly see to that destruction.

Call me a nerd but most of what I watch these days is anime. The Japanese aren't constantly injecting blatant Marxist propaganda into their entertainment like Hollywood is. I used to enjoy the Marvel Cinematic Universe but it's unbearable now with all the political crap they're shoving down our throats. There have to be tons of Japanese that want Trump back in office, Beijing Biden isn't going to protect them from the China threat right next door.

Covid should be classified as flu at worst, although I think common cold, if anything, would be more apt.

I enjoyed the original trilogy, but I'm worried that the creator, who has since turned into a tranny, is going to inject a bunch of Woke BS into the new movie. We'll see.

He plays in this show called Prison Break which is basically about a group of escaped convicts that take down the Illuminati/New World Order. It's pretty cool. He's also the dad in a show called Atypical and was in a couple episodes of Friends as Phoebe's boyfriend. He's type-cast as a cop or first responder in pretty much every role he plays. His stchick is basically his heavy New York accent.
