“Ahh I’m being thrown to the wolves after joining a foreign legion!”

Man signed up for the one position ranked below cannon fodder, ooft. Sorry bud you’ve got two options now:

1. Die

2. Be abandoned in Ukraine after the war ends

Let’s not forget that as much of an idiot this man is, he has been let down by a failed educational system and a behemoth propaganda machine.

Cigarettes have a myriad of carcinogens like toluene, benzene, formadelhyde, hexamine, napthaline and acetone

Stating that vapes are more toxic than cigarettes over one metric is disingenuous journalism.

I’m not disagreeing about the lead content but studies like this get picked up by journalists with the comprehension of a tomato and are then misconstrued into these fear-creating headlines for engagement.

The adoption of vapes tremendously ate into the big tobacco profits, its an extremely effective way of getting off cigarettes. (for better or worse)

If we instead listened to these studies and developed a similar form of nicotine replacement therapy with harm minimisation in mind under industry regulation we’d do far more for smokers, vapers and our healthcare systems than any fear mongering ‘don’t do it!’ campaigns which time and time again do not work.

If you read the paper, it assumes a 100% absorption rate of the heavy metals emitted.

I’m not here to defend vapes but I think that is a seriously overlooked flaw in this study. Most people don’t puff a cigarette/vape and hold it in their lungs until it’s completely absorbed.

Couldn’t see anything about the bioavailability of these carcinogens via lungs factored into the absorption rate either.

Ontop of that the sample size from this study is abysmal and from the same manufacturer and there is also a declared conflict of interest.

IMO more studies need to be done before we can conclusively determine the damage and risks of disposable vapes.

And they have the gall to act like they’re better than you because you’re working a mininum wage job on a Sunday.

Yeah as a chef I only learnt how to dice, chiffonade, brunoise, batonnete, julienne and tourne all sorts of food cause it looks cool.

Different shapes and sizes is extremely important, it’s why salt flakes taste different to iodized salt because of surface area or why a thicker slice of ham will taste different to a thinner one.

Also if you cant cut something consistently half of its going to overcook and half of its going to undercook.
