This is sort of a shower thought because this morning I was using some shaving cream and I thought, if it turns out in 5 years this was giving me cancer, I wouldn’t be surprised.

Comes out a goo, ejected from a can with force, immediately becomes a foam?

Do you have anything you use that you think might be too good to be true?

I mean, that’s just how capitalism works. The health of your consumers isn’t relevant, unless a law mandates it.

There already are those documentaries? Jule or whatever it’s called has already been doing the exact same stuff that the tobacco industry did for literally a decade now.

A majority of vape brands are already owned by tobacco companies.

I wouldn’t be surprised. I wish there was a way to enjoy flavor without any horrific side effects.

But, I want it in my lungs and steaming liquid flavor water doesn’t sound like it’ll mix well with those.

I also drink tea but in between swallows I could see myself enjoying a vape, if they weren’t bad for me. Which is why I have never used one.

E: Drinking Yukon Gold at the mo’.
