Good old days when Mr Cig used to visit the lung cancer ward to cheer patients up
Nothing better than a match in a high oxygen environment.
This sounds like a joke, but cigarettes were in fact used to treat asthma at some point.
Datura Stramonium cigarettes to be precise. That plant can give you a nasty horror trip if you consume to much of it.
I'd be willing to give it a try
If you really do, blend the dried leaves from multiple plants. The psychoactive ingredients can be unevenly distributed throughout the plant. This means that you could unintentionally overdose without changing the amount you take.
Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind.
less irritating
Have you ever saw an ad like "our restaurant just gives you a mild food intoxication" 😂
Well, we do still say similar things about alcohol
This vodka goes down smooth! Almost no taste, that's how you know it's good.
Vodka drinkers are alcoholics with no taste, prove me wrong
Counterpoint, I love the pure absence of taste that some high quality Wodka has. I think it's fascinating how even water seems to taste more in comparison.
You gotta fumigate the ghosts somehow.
Many seeing this are far too young to even remember when doctors actually endorsed cigarette smoking. There were ads in magazines and newspapers for brands of cigarette with the picture of a doctor and his reasons why this particular brand was the best one to smoke
They were even used to treat asthma at some point: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/asthma-cigarettes/
This would read differently in Bri'ish
Just thinking of Sleeper where Woody is told that smoking was found to actually be healthy and then given a cigarette for breakfast.
“Toxic sludge is good for you!!!”
AI trash
According to Gemini, this photo is 100% real because "The image caption states it's from 1948. AI image generation technology as we know it today did not exist at that time."
Because we all know that's completely impossible to write a fake caption over an image
I wouldn't trust those AI checkers fully, as soon as you get jpeg artifacts it will think it's real, I tested it the other week on an AI picture I made, the only AI detector that has worked 100%, even on potato quality, is https://illuminarty.ai/
Pole which disappears part way down the wall. His left arm is transparent. The person isn't on the bed but behind it. The shadows are all messed up too.
Also the smoke is coming out of the end the guy is taking hold of.
Even just handing someone a lit cigarette is weird.
This is definitely not the first time i have seen this picture. I have seen it before the ai epidemic
Oldest one I could find was November last year. Have a link to something older?
That's blunt.
