Personally, I think it's problematic that a sitting Senator has a racial slur for a last name.

as a life long nicotine addict I agree but if you do try it use the patches, the gum works but is loving awful on your teeth after a while and will likely give you awful indigestion.

Yo, twoday, pointing at you directly.

Your media had any whispers about a 3-11 schedule or the more dangerous 4 day weekend schedule for partially unfucking the economy?

Any countries (probably in Europe) talking about moving to a 3-11 schedule yet?

That is, 3 days at work and 11 days off, so if you get infected during the at work period you can't transmit it asymptomatically while at work.

Starting up nicotine is fairly analogous to the fish tank cleaner therapy. Unverified effectiveness with well known negative side effects.

when i was inpatient for awhile the serious addicts used to trade smokers food or other poo poo for the nicotine patches you'd get prescribed and put on by the nurses. they'd take that poo poo right off your arm and jam it in their mouth and suck/chew on it to get a bit of a high off of it

Even if it works there wouldn't be any reason to do it preventatively, but only when you start to feel symptoms
