    With these actions, the FDA will help significantly reduce youth initiation

    uhhhh vapes? Hello? Or did they ban vape flavors nationwide already?

    Also this is a real "rearranging Titanic deck chairs" type of reform. Either fucking let people shorten their lifespan if they want, or go all the way and ban every chronic behavior that shortens it. Enough of this "some vices are okay and others aren't" bullshit.

      Agree, except strictly on the let's not ban any vices side lol

      Let's fuck up the companies responsible for peddling addiction while also recognizing the bodily autonomy of those of us at the bottom.

        Fuck, did they do some shit with DIY nicotine?

        I think I last bought nicotine in 2020 and it shipped just fine afaik. I get it 1L at a time and probably won’t need more for four years (judging by how long my last liter lasted).

        This shit drives me nuts, I don’t really want to hoard like a prepper weirdo. Plus freezer space

        Also, on the subject of menthols, it feels extremely paternalistic to do this under the guise of looking out for black people by banning sometbing associated with them, get fucked USA.

            I haven’t been keeping up on the news (I did around 2014-2015 when I stopped smoking, tons of libertarians on the politics sections of ecig forums, I’m lucky I didn’t internalize too much of their weirdness).

            That’s a real bummer. Thanks for the update, I appreciate it. I should probably just step down my nic and be done with it, it just annoys the hell out of me to be coerced into it
