What I don’t understand is how these e cigarettes are accessible to youngsters compared to disallowing cigarettes.

I live in the UK, and I see young teens and people my age in 20s smoking these metal pipe cigarettes, isn’t it just tobacco in liquid form? Shouldn’t this be tightly controlled like regular cigarettes?

How the hell is this drug popular and marketable??

    I feel bad when I throw away my empty carts. I wish there was a way to recycle them, maybe bring them to a dispensary that does so, or make a new thing for them at the recycle yard.

    Edit: I didn’t know there were reusable ones. It’s not like they’re advertised everywhere. At least I’ve never seen any at any dispo I’ve gone to. 🤷‍♂️

    Man, it’d be great if capitalists didn’t try to capitalize on everything and make everything single use so you have to buy more.

        Reusable cartridge? I didn’t know they made those, because no one talks about them ever. Except here, apparently.

        I have a battery that I reuse all the time, if that’s what you’re talking about.

          You’ve been missing out. Customizable vapes allow for flavor and nicotine customizations as well. I weened myself off of the nicotine some years ago, but I do still occasionally take a poof of the melon mix that I like.

          The part that’s wild to me is people who have the option to never touch the addictive agent of smoking still opt into it for some strange reason.

            I don’t vape nicotine or just for vaping’s sake, lol.

            Those are the vape cartridges I’m talking about. Although I have heard of people distilling their own oil, so I’m sure it’s all who you know.
