I just got up and took about 7 big huffs on a vape while making a coffee. 2% strength and my vision went, everything went black I started blacking out against the kitchen counter. Had to kneel down and wait for it to pass before standing up to finish my coffee. Fucked it up in a cloud of confusion and drank a warm milk.

How the fuck is nicotine legal?

Prohibition doesn't work.

Hey now, if we just militarize our police a bit more, kill and/or throw a few more black people in jail, and further erode civil liberties, surely white kids will stop over dosing on drugs.

/s for the morons

I do think it would be interesting to see a ban on alcohol today and how things would play out.

Seeing how easy homebrewing and how well documented it is online...

Yeah but do you see literally everyone doing it? I feel like most people would see the effort involved and just give up. sure, there would be a large underground black market for alcohol but I think the average person probably wouldn't even bother trying to make their own.

Effort? What effort? Putting a bunch of sugar into juice and letting it sit for a couple of months takes almost no effort.

Want something stronger? Put your newly created Cider in the freezer for a few hours then remove the ice. Congratulations you just freeze distilled your Cider in jack (nearly 30% abv)

They don't, but taxes are really fucking effective.
