Heather's Heavenly Vapes - THE BIG THREAD (Part 6)

[Bronze]

There’s more reasons to stock up on your vape supplies.

1) Some vape shops have been notified that CC companies will no longer process transactions. For at least one, the notice came midday and he was even unable to close the batch of transactions that did go through.

2) One LTL shipper suddenly issued a policy of refusal to carry vape products. Pallets that were sitting there ready for shipping are now stuck.

3) Some vape businesses have been dropped from their business insurance policies.

4) One vape shop was just notified that their transactions will be processed, but they will have to pay a $500 per month fee and the first month’s fee will be deducted at the end of March.

The crushing out of the industry is intensifying.

And it goes. I'm stocked. Anyone who wants to continue vaping had better do the same. NOW!

Afternoon... BP checks OK. As I knew it wood. Also called in getting hurt so it is on file. Just in case...

All these attempts by vape companies to try to find workarounds get the door slammed in their face any time they think they found some wiggle room. I suspect that is how it will be until there are no vape shops left.

The government can do this to any industry it chooses and it can muscle ancillary services that are regulated by the Feds, i.e., banking and commercial transport. One by one our freedoms are being willingly given up.

But it is all for the good, at least the epidemic of teen vaping and death has been ameliorated. I would give up all the remaining liberties that I now enjoy if it just saves one life then it is all worth it.

Might be a good time to collect email addresses from everyone. No telling how much longer before ECF is cancelled.

We could try to set up a private group over on Gab or something. Or a Discord...

That's an idea. And I don't know anything about Gab other than it exists. But I like the flow of ideas.

This is just . . . utterly shocking. And wrong.

I have no words for this coordinated, thuggish behavior. I want my damn country back!!

I've been on Gab for a while. I usually use it to blow off steam because I can there. I know they have a Groups feature, and there's a way to set them up so they're private. I've never created a Group so I don't know much more than that. As for Discord, speech isn't free like Gab, but most of us keep it clean enough here, if we all agreed to stick to most of the same rules we'd probably be ok. And Discord servers require an invite to join, so we could still keep the group private.

Yes I'd say they are trying to shut them down. Them in a couple months we'll hear about the rise in tobacco use...

Question. If I have 500mil of 100mg nic in a vg base how much would I use to bring it down to 6mg for a 50mil bottle?

I've heard good things about Gab. Do you know if they collect and sell personal information?

Rather than answering that, I'll give you a name to put in your browser (I'd link but it wont work here for some reason). It is... e-liquid-recipes[dot]com

You can create your own recipes and it does all the math for you. Give it a look-see David and if you have any questions, ask me.

And if you want to know how much nic you need to stock, here is a calculator. Remember, nic needs to be stored in sealed glass in the freezer for long term storage. It will last a long, long time.

I don't need to say what we call governance rule by very large companies, do I.

They do not; however, they were hacked. They have a lot of enemies. The only thing you need for an account is an email address. If you're anything like me, you set a phony one up for your socials. So my fake name got hacked. Big whoop. I did buy some stuff from their shop back in January to support them, but my purchase was not tied to my account in any way, so I can't be doxxed for my "hate speech".

Any where but FaceBook, Twitter or any of the other censoring entities that America and world seem to just love.

I don't use those either! Closest to censorship I have would be the Discord, but I don't talk about political things there. The only things Gab doesn't seem to like is boobas and lolis.

Oh no, I may be one of those and not even know it - is there a way to find out?

Just don't post a pic of yourself then and you'll be ok!
