Fe godwn ni eto!

That’s pretty much what I meant, yes! That being said, switching wasn’t entirely withdrawal-free, so I think there’s something about the route of administration of cigarettes that’s different. I’ve read that the vapour doesn’t get as effectively absorbed by the lungs as cigarette smoke and instead is absorbed more…

Surely BLM is, somehow, part of the homosexual agenda?

I tried gum, and patches, and those weird little inhaler things, never worked for me. Glad you found something that worked for you though! :)

I (hate to sound like one of those people but I) would highly recommend keeping a semi-decent e-cigarette/vaporiser setup around, like an “ego” style battery and maybe a nautilus mini tank around, for those times you give in and really need the nicotine. They’ll maybe be a tiny bit harsh on your mouth and throat at…

Oh god, I feel you. Four out of five (sneaky cigarette) times it feels like I’ve just inhaled nuclear fallout, not just in my lungs but in how weak I feel afterwards. But that fifth time? Pure, ecstatic, “maybe I’m not entirely mad at my first boyfriend for introducing me to cigarettes at 16 and damn this feels a lot…

I finally quit last year too, using e-cigarettes. One of the things I’ve noticed is that (presumably because I’m still using and addicted to nicotine), I can “cheat” and have the occasional cigarette maybe once every couple of months without becoming re-addicted. In fact most of the time, the main effect of the…

In America, cops shoot people

Pretty much all “modern” prison systems are shockingly barbaric in their treatment of convicts. I think Norway’s really the only place getting it right, ethically speaking.

Bolivian woman learns one weird trick to getting pregnant! Reproductive endocrinologists hate her!

I’ve always found that phrase absurd. I mean, I support “traditional” marriages/families too, I just happen to also support non-traditional ones. Yay for marriage and love and family all around, in other words.

With synthetics, you can get the real thing except that it was made in a lab, not in the ground, created by well paid lab techs instead of mined by underpaid workers, for about a bazillion times cheaper. With no money from its sale going to De Beers or dodgy warlords. And me being a science nerd makes a lab diamond far…

Adam’s kinda ruined diamonds for me.

I’m disabled, and at least here in the UK, the same thing happens with support workers. The company charges a ridiculous amount (that after some fighting I got social services to pay for as it would have been an unaffordably massive chunk of my income), but the actual support workers barely get minimum wage... and…

Thank you, I’d actually had a few glasses of wine (and some delicious pizza) myself when I wrote that!

Glaring_Mistake had it pretty much spot on, that’s how it feels. It’s not that I’d be offended if you referred to me as a person with autism... but it’s rather irksome to be told that my self-identification is “wrong”, or that I should be offended by a label that I actually choose to use on myself. It’s a *splaining…

I find your lack of taste disturbing.

That’s... still debated a lot, amongst people with the condition. Some of us prefer “people with autism”, some of us prefer “autistic”, some of us don’t really care.

So now they’re oppressing hardworking clipart companies, too? Disgusting!

I can see that logic, from their point of view. But I cannot understand what bearing this has on the children, even under their twisted worldview there is no logic there. Even if the child does “disavow” non-heterosexuality, they can’t be baptised if they live with their gay parents because... not running away from…
