  • Trump wins.

  • Way further ahead. Dude literally says he wants to be a dictator.

  • UK introduces a bill that would eventually make the purchase of cigarettes illegal

    Jump

  • Except they aren't like food. Vaping isn't required to live. It's purely recreational and aimed at children.

    But I'm happy with either regulation or a ban.

  • Well yeah that's the idea.

  • Yes and yes.

  • It works really well for kids. They aren't even trying to ban it for adults.

    Raising the age from 16 to 18 had a massive effect when I was young.

    This will most likely dramatically decrease smoking in young people and that's great.

    It's not 100% or nothing.

  • Yeah vaping will have its time. I bet they're already sitting on evidence that it fucks you up.

    Prohibition does work very well for kids though. Most people start young as when you're older you know the issues.

    So they are keeping it for people already exposed and trying to stop younger people starting in the first place.

    They raised the age to 18 when I turned 16 and it dramatically cut the amount we had access to.

    It's not like the old alcohol probation. Plus smoking isn't even fun like drinking. It's just gross and bad for your health. And most people don't drink because of addiction. It's a different kettle of fish.

    But they should be doing the same for vaping.

  • It'll work for the majority of people. You won't be able to do it out in public.

    If you want to get cancer in your own house go ahead.

    The truth is they put a huge burden on public services. Mainly the health service but also they create insane amounts of litter.

    If vaping is still an option then most people will just do that.

  • Vaping is currently almost completely unregulated and some studies have found terrifying chemicals in them

  • People who don't like cancer and want to take the insane pressure these death sticks put on the health service.

    Who in their right mind supports mega corps selling addictive cancer causing products to young people?

  • Polls are still open

    Jump

  • Years ago in the UK people elected ukip for our EU representation as a protest vote. There are famously anti EU.

    As a result they skipped important votes and really fucked us.

    And I thought that was ridiculous.

  • xkcd #3007: Probabilistic Uncertainty

    Jump

  • Surely 50/50 is the same as the bad outcome being more likely but the bad outcome is actually less likely.

  • Why are we so concerned with impressing each other?

    Jump

  • Most likely about getting laid. Probably left over from our monkey days.

  • Journalist reports there’s ‘disgust’ about Trump within his own campaign

    Jump

  • Yeah there's no way they've just realised what a piece of shit he is.

    Pretty much on day one of his initial run he was caught on mic talking about sexually assaulting young women.

  • Bar association presidents warn lawyers against frivolous election lawsuits

    Jump

  • My assumption is they get a big enough kick back that it's worth it.

  • Historians have a word for them.

    Jump

  • Literally no call for violence. In fact specifically states it's not too late to save the nutters.

    You on the other hand seem upset that people hate Nazis. And before you start whining a lot of you are actual Nazis.

    So there's your real left vs right. Chance to be fixed Vs QQ people are mean to Nazis.

  • Billionaires emit more carbon pollution in 90 minutes than the average person does in a lifetime

  • I mean murdering people is extremist.

    Taking their money would achieve the same.

  • 24-year-old man punches election judge in the face while waiting in line to vote

  • His actions are a pretty big indicator but not 100% true.

  • ‘He’s realizing that he could lose’: the Trump campaign is panicking

  • If you struggle to visualise, just focus on your breathing. When you notice you are distracted bring it back to your breathing. Acknowledge where your mind drifted but try not to dwell on it as you focus back.

    There are also apps available to help with breathing exercises. I had one that showed a balloon inflating and deflating. I found it easier to focus on that at first.

    Counting while you box breath can also make it easier. The count can be whatever you're comfortable with. 5 5 5 5 works well for me.

  • Tucker Carlson claims hurricanes hitting US 'probably because of abortion'

  • Nah he's just bullshitting to his base. This isn't a mental health crisis or anything. Just grifting.
