  • Finding some way to taper off the nicotine will dramatically improve your odds of quitting for good. The oral fixation is a bit harder to deal with but nicotine-free electronic cigarettes can emulate some of the experience of smoking and chewing gum can give you something to do with your mouth. Working out also helps with cravings for some reason. One of the biggest obstacles to qutting can be the social groups/situations you smoked in. I was lucky enough to wind up without any other friends that were hooked on nicotine and that made it easier.

    The the second week off of it is the hardest for some reason but after you get past that its all downhill. Getting past that threshold may take multiple tries. Because of how addictive nicotine is I would HIGHLY reccomend abstaining from any form of nicotine once you decide to quit completely. If you let him get his foot in the door youre gonna wake up with him in your bed again, metaphorically. A behavior can be forced into extinction but addiction only ever goes into remission.

    I've been off the stuff for exactly two years and two days at this point and I still get occasional cravings, particularly after crying or exiting a high-stress situation.

    Good luck. Sorry for the word vomit. You CAN do this and it WILL be worth it, I promise. If you fuck it up, thats alright, just keep trying.

  • Letting sliced tofu marinade in an acid like vinegar or citrus juice (plus a little salt and seasonings) will make the inside deliciously bright and tangy.

    If you pan fry it you don't need corn starch or anything, you just have to pat it dry before putting it in and be paitent.

  • Hello i have a question from my cat gathered with much the same method - " p[' "

  • My favorite part of linux news is that you get a headline like this and to 99.5% of the population it sounds like word salad but at the same time there's at least 15 dudes who are going to be totally stoked by this.

  • Oooooh like the musician, not the forum software internet thing... that makes way more sense, gotcha!

  • What the fuck? I wanna throw hands how the fuck could someone allow themselves to talk to another human being like that? Let alone someone who is tasked with talking vulnerable people through their struggles? Its their fucking JOB.

    I thought I had some bad therapists but this one sounds like an interrogator that got lost. A good therapist can do wonders and I'm so sorry you were put through that.

  • Not only is it normal, but as some other posters have mentioned, it is a good habit to be in. This may be a hot take but people should also look at their toilet paper after wiping and at their poop before flushing.

  • The war in Syria has gone on for about 13 years now and a lot of people see this as a possible end to a conflict that killed roughly half a million people and made refugees of about 14 million more. That, and Assad is not a particularly well-liked figure. The geopolitical implications are a little grim to say the least and it is likely that the formation of the new Syrian government will lead to an entirely new set of nightmares but right now the average person probably doesn't see that.

  • Unironically, seriously, hear me out, Mice Tea.

    It is a beautiful story about community, identity, self-discovery and what we decide to do with our lives... yes there are a couple dozen sex scenes across the eight or so story paths and yeah sure at its core it's about a tea that turns people into furries but it's GOOD. I cried!

    While most erotic VNs are obnoxiously saturated in horny-ness Mice Tea avoids that by having a good sense of proper time and place for that kind of thing, it handles sex more like the way a romance novel would. Plus, the explicit content is meant to be optional and it gives you a chance to skip them entirely with a pop up containing warnings about kinks and potentially triggering stuff. Also everyone is in their mid twenties-mid thirties so yeah.

    It's $20 on itch.io but it goes on sale on Steam occasionally. There is also a free demo version that can be found on either of those places.

  • yes, you

  • "Wash"

    Was this machine translated from spanish?

  • If I had my way every domicile in human history would have one of these and a pair of decks.

  • A Riddick? fur Me? Why thank you! That's so nice of you <3

  • Why is this tweet branded like a NASCAR competitor?

  • As much as I want TiK ToK by Kesha to be a recognizable tune in half a millenia I know that's not happening. Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode is one of the most covered songs of the past 50 years so that very well may become immortalized through diffusion alone. There's a couple dozen jazz standards that could have that kind of staying power as well, especially considering their ubiquity in performance repitoires and books of sheet music.

  • This guy has something good going on here, if they grilled the dog, added some swiss, and then grilled/toasted/panini-ed the whole thing it would be killer.
