  1. El uso simultáneo de tabaco y cannabis aumenta el riesgo de desarrollar psicosis.

    No se asoció a mayor gravedad de los síntomas psiquiátricos, pero sí a mayor riesgo de presentar psicosis que los que no fumaban ambas plantas.

    Last year, the World Health Organization (WHO) called on governments to ban tobacco products with flavors that are particularly appealing to children and teens, like fruity, bubblegum, or cotton candy flavors, "to protect youth from addiction and disease."

    After Makary caved to Trump, the #FDA put out a press release touting the vape device's features to prevent youth use (info from the vape manufacturer - Glas).

    #MyThoughts -
    It's like the FDA (via the #Trump admin) works for the #tobacco companies.

    And manufacturing fruity-flavored vapes that are particularly appealing to children & teens and then telling them they can't partake is like advertising sugary cereal and then telling kids that cereal is not for them.

  8. A quotation from Richard Steele

    But however low and poor the taking of Snuff argues a Man to be in his own Stock of Thought, or Means to employ his Brains and his Fingers, yet there is a poorer Creature in the World than He, and this is a Borrower of Snuff; a Fellow that keeps no Box of his own, but is always asking others for a Pinch.

    Richard Steele (1672-1729) Anglo-Irish writer, journalist, playwright, politician
    Essay (1709-06-28), The Tatler, No. 35

  9. Once again, Costello is protecting her donors' market.

    I don't believe the scary figure they're quoting, that over 27% of tobacco consumed in NZ is illicit. Why? Because it comes straight from big tobacco.

    "The 27 percent consumption figure used in the Retail NZ report was originally sourced from a separate 2025 report which was prepared for the exclusive benefit and use of Imperial Tobacco New Zealand and British American Tobacco New Zealand."

    Big Tobacco is still writing Costello's script and NZ's smoking legislation.

  14. 🌱🔈 #Tomato and #tobacco plants produce high-frequency clicks when stressed by dehydration or physical injury.

    These ultrasonic #sounds reach volumes comparable to human speech but remain inaudible to people. #Research suggests that air #bubbles forming and popping within the #plant vascular system create these #acoustic signals.
