After about 8 years of daily smoking (and slowly smoking more and more because of tolerance building up) I decided to quit for various reasons.

I'm at about 10 days off cold turkey and I'm still struggling a lot. At the beginning was a big loss of appetite, trouble going to sleep and obviously the psychological desire to smoke. The worst part for me though is the intense anxiety, irritability and the lack of motivation to do anything. It feels like falling back into depression and slowly try crawling out of it.

Really disappointing to see so many people in here denying what I'm going through. Yes there's always been propaganda against using, but there's still some truth to it. I'm still glad that it's legal here in Canada because it did help me at one point, but like every drug, you have to be careful.

Fun fact: The US isn’t even in the top 3 most litigious countries.

Not very surprising in a way... considering most of the population lives paycheck to paycheck, they can't afford a lawyer for sure.

Depends... Could be a nightmare we're in...

I'd say it's more like disguised feudalism. We're all peasants for the few kings and queens that have all the money at the top.

You could just move them over whenever someone decides to double it up. That way the person that was going to die alone is doomed to die anyway. 😂

My problem with Android phones other than the Pixel line is all the bloatware they have installed that you can't get rid of. I've been a user of the more "pure" Google phones since the start, from the Nexus to the Pixel.

Pixel 5 user here and I have to say I am going to make it last as long as I can! Battery still keeps its charge all day even as a fairly big user too!

Suuuure. Not paid directly by the gov, but unless you've been living under a rock, everyone knows that politicians and big corporations (or in this case: Fox News) work hand in hand to push propaganda... Or like you said "put a positive spin on negative events".

People just like to jump on TikTok and be like CHINA BAD!. As if America was an angel lmao.

Just because it's a meme doesn't mean we can't discuss it more seriously in the comments.

I guess it's a bit of both depending on the region you come from. As a french canadian I'd say we use "teton" to refer to tits in general, but you're right that it refers to nipples in France and I imagine most of the European countries that speak french.

Lmao, "Grand Teton" in French translates to "Big Tits". That's a nice name for mountains!

Honestly I do feel like people get too old at some point to be in power positions, but instead of just having a strict age limit like a lot of people are saying here, there should just be some positions that have this limitation. They could still work as advisors and such, as long as they don't have the last word.

People like Bernie Sanders for example can provide a lot of insight and have lots of experience in the field which is useful. But to have someone that could potentially die from taking a wrong step as a leading figure is a bit silly.
