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.

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.

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.

You get internet access if you pay the 8 dollars, you don’t need internet access to watch the free movies/shows. WiFi =/= internet access.

That’s a damn long list, but I see Grim Fandango in there and thus I must upvote!

Cock and stone brother!

Took a quick look at the wiki and have to admit that this is hilarious:

Both a zero-cost version and a purchasable “enhanced” version called LimeWire Pro were available; however, LimeWire Pro could be acquired for free through the standard LimeWire software, where users distributed it without authorization.

Maybe in your imagination, but in reality a huge chunk of the population lives paycheck to paycheck.

Yeah like “free speech” being a “far right” thing, while simultaneously trying to stop people from talking about LGBTQ+ issues.

Meanwhile the left is doing what that’s against free speech? You can say bigoted things all you want still as far as I know. It’ll affect what people think of you as a person, but that’s not what free speech is about.

This person is a lost cause.

Yeah, but like… That’s a couple years ago for my old ass. 😂

Agree with almost everything except the useless or harmful part. It’s just a meme meant for a quick laugh, it’s not that serious.

If we want to be serious though, the Republican party has been going further and further right in the past couple of years. The meme is kind of expressing this in a way.

Yeah… In this day and age where people struggle financially I’m sure women just do it as a hobby… 🙄

I didn’t say I liked them. What I meant is that they don’t have the media presence and influence that someone like Elon has. At the end of the day, like others said, you wouldn’t be buying anything if you looked at the track record of every CEO. I can still pick the lesser evil.

Or it could be Lemmy Asks You Anything. LAYA
