Spent a morning out on the town on my day off, and everyone is just fucking buried in their phones 24/7. This realization was so absurd to me

Of course I’m not exempt from this shit, but no wonder people are having so much trouble making friends and creating meaningful relationships in this day and age. So fucking bleak

    Also, disposable vapes are more addictive than cigs. They give WAY more nicotine per hit. Actually used them to push through opiate withdrawal because the nicotine in those was so powerful it’d push through the withdrawal in its entirety. You can realistically only smoke 4-5 cigs a day. You can’t take 4-5 hits off a vape in a dag

      Are you still on the vapes? I picked up smoking again a few years back due to work stress and I made the switch pretty quickly, but I really want to just be done with these things.

        I’m not. I actually went backwards, from vapes to cigarettes. If you’re going to vape, pick up your own system, tank and juice. The shitty disposable vapes will make you a nic fiend like nothing else. I can’t stand how bad they make the cravings. I can run out of money for smokes and go a day or two without smoking. But when I was on those disposable vapes, it was like hard drug cravings, it was so bad.
