I was just watching the news. Looks like our government is trying to bring in legislation for a full ban on vaping here. To be debated in parliament next week. Prohibition.
That would mean even the current tough prescription laws would be scrapped.
According to the gov mouthpiece I just watched, "everyone knows that vapes contain formaldehyde, weed killer and other harmful chemicals. Why would we let this continue?"

Hey All! I wanted to share my experience with lost vape customer service this past week. I was concerned about not having any backup squonk bottlesmfor the Centaurus Quest Squonker of which I have 4! The design is somewhat unique making it impossible to find extra bits. They are Out Of Stock everywhere. lost vape CS responded to my email where I asked if they might know where I could find a couple backup bottles .

LV customer service responded to my inquiry and stated that the LV Centaurus squonk and its accessories have been discontinued for some time and didn’t know of any vendor who might carry spare bottles or even the entire setup. (Element still has some but it’s the only vendor I could find)

At that point they offered to send several of the bottles to me without charge! I was very surprised at the least and wanted to give them a Shoutout. It’s nice to hear of good experiences with customer service for a change.

They did something similar for me when I had problems with the bottles. I think there was a problem with the clips that held them in place at first.

I have several Chronus kits that I bought during one of the FDA panics. What color is the Yihi! I have one in red. Looks sharp.

It’s black with a design stamped into the leather.

Happy Memorial Day everyone. After a beautiful sunny weekend the clouds are here in full coverage south of Boston with rain expected later today. Hopefully most people had their outdoor activities over Saturday and Sunday.
I have no plans today except to do some adulting like pay bills. What about you?

I am putting a new bathroom faucet in our downstairs bathroom and need to get out and do some yard work.

This makes my head droop.

Ads have appeared on SBS- one of the two government funded TV stations, and their online streaming service, that offer help to depicted downtrodden indigenous teens whose lives have been ruined by vaping. (or they could go and buy a pack of the world's most expensive cigarettes at any local store, most of the retail price of which is made up of taxes)

I nearly threw a brick at the screen.

The whole thing just makes me sick. If teens are the problem then why not handle that and leave the adults alone. I have a hard time believing that the government doesn’t know it’s less harmful. More likely they want their tax money back from cigarette sales.

That makes me so damn angry and sad.

Well that’s one way to enjoy Memorial Day! I’ve been celebrating by snaking the downstairs toilet and cleaning the upholstery on some dinette chairs that I’m going to list on FB marketplace. I’ve been wanting to get rid of quite a few items in the house and I’ve had good luck on the Marketplace.

I’m organizing my vapes and my house!

Enjoy! Hope the weather is good. It’s been overcast with occasional sprinkles today south of Boston. I did most of my outdoor work in the past 2 days.

It can't be only about tax money. If they want to recoup lost "sin" tax revenue, nothing's stopping them from taxing vape products as much as they want.

Lobbying (read: "Payola") from the pharma industry is the more likely culprit.

Australia seems to be the "test market" for much that is nefarious.

good morning folks,

the package from Stealth Vape has been released from the clutches of the customs authorities and is now moving south.

Yesterday went to the tractor and so will tomorrow.

Today I went to training, it was hard with sore muscles:

Vapes by prescription only.
Police-state level lock-down enforcement.
Draconian speech suppression laws.
Internet censorship beyond its own borders.
Compelling behavior via digital blackmail.
Moving to a cashless economy.

They're not alone but, among Western democracies, they're a leader in several areas of the agenda.

Let's not get too political, though.

Ouch. I might move.

With us, there is one month left before the flavor ban kicks in.
We will have elections next year, it is important for us users to use all political channels to promote vape.
