-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Hopefully all of the PFAs, microplastics, and leftover COVID bouncing around my body will protect me.

robot dick gang still toking on my VHS tape sized mod over here, I fucking hate disposable vapes
common "don't breathe this" w
lead author Mark Salazar said in a statement.
he's a lead author I'm sure he finds in in everything
"Unleaded e-cigs currently in development!" 
I always knew they were bad. Will I quit? I hope so, soon.
Welp, guess I’m dead 
Yeah can we just keep pretending they’re better than cigs?
Growing up, my aunt had a boxer. Beautiful, lovely dog. It died of the same type of cancer my dad did, bronchial. My dad smoked like a chimney and had since he was a literal child. The dog maybe encountered a little second hand outside, but no one smoked in the house. It lived on a nice little piece of land in the country.
I'm not saying my vape isn't giving me cancer. I'm saying everything is giving me cancer.

I’m a chemistry nerd not a biology nerd but I find it hard to believe the health concerns of heavy metals really outweigh that of the tar, benzene, and other directly harmful hydrocarbons found in cigarettes.
it's for sure a clickbait title and obviously there is a bunch of other toxic shit in cigs. but i still see people acting like vaping is free and think they need to be disabused of this notion
I agree the vapes aren’t harmless and that needs to be recognized. However I think this type of clickbait to be directly harmful if it convinces someone to use a product that’s actually worse.
But again I’m not super confident on which is worse but I feel the benzene and tar wins in this case.
personal story, was addicted to vapes pretty heavily from age 17 til about 25, only ever took maybe a year off total in that time. Tried quitting many times but always relapsed, recently i had quit in Ramadan but my dumb ass decided to buy a vape one night and after hitting it for an hour i started having severe chest pains similar to what i imagine cardiac arrest feels likes, the next morning the pain was horrible and i couldnt breathe. I was hospitalized for two days and diagnosed with pericarditis.
recently got off the meds after 3 months and feel recovered, but it was incredibly scary and i have not vaped since and never plan to again.
How do y'all speculate this applies to weed carts? Asking for a friend lmao
i'm a big stoner and anecdotally whenever i've gone to the US and got carts, my lungs reject them like nothing else. they feel really nasty
