The latter will tell you "Everything not forbidden is permitted". The former says "Everything not permitted is forbidden".

People tend to push this idea that all this transgender stuff is brand new, but you have this indigenous segment of a population that has been around for centuries. Also a bit disappointed that this isn't making the Vogue cover in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got plenty next door Queensland has gotten off "easy" so far with only 180.000 hectares razed, where as New South Wales had 1.65 million hectares razed by fires, battling a 6000 km "fire front". The summer hasn't even started yet, so it might end up being a bad year.

That was my initial impression of this whole vaping phenomena. Just the fact that it doesn't make everything smell horrible seems to be an improvement over traditional smoking. But then you hear about exploding pens, toxic oils, and a massive spike in dumb teenagers doing this, and now I'm not so sure. The research isn't really there yet. We've got a pretty solid laundry list of all the crap that cigarettes will lead to, but vaping is basically rolling the dice with your health. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got a pretty solid laundry list of all the crap that cigarettes will lead to, but vaping is basically rolling the dice with your health. I think it's something like, we have a decade of vaping in the UK, and a single death that relates to vaping - and from what I dimly recall, again it was someone using illegal vaping stuff rather than legitamate sources. Still, it's a single decade, so it's not as if it's a serious amount of time to see ill-effects as such. But it's also one of those interesting in just how quick many governments are to snapkick legislation vs vaping in general without worrying about the science but keeping that initial "related to smoking" backlash. Which you rarely seem to see with booze... 1 "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warning, NSFW and all that, but funny as all hell Edited November 25, 2019 by Azdeus 1 Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.
