On May 5, came the news of the authorization of two fruit-flavored vapes as appropriate for the protection of public health. While surfing social media and websites, I came across reactions to this new development. Do you agree with them? skipscorner.substack.com/p/glas-reactio…

Yesterday's authorization a "historic" win for harm reduction, writes @imaracingmom, but with caveats beyond the age-gating. The story "has continually involved politics and pressure" impacting so-called scientific review. "People who smoke deserve more." filtermag.org/fda-authorizes…

Yesterday I talked about "Big Business." Today, I continue that conversation with my views on "Big Tobacco," "Big Vape," and "Big Nicotine." skipscorner.substack.com/p/big-813 And for dessert, I added in a "Big Eraser."

Sometimes people wonder if I can talk about anything other than nicotine. Ta-Da! Here’s a post about trains! I love trains. And I made it to the ending before nicotine appeared on the page! skipscorner.substack.com/p/big I'm learning how to use AI to make images. Do you like this one?

🧵 I'm so excited for next week! It will start on Monday with a 3 am-9 am shift at the group home and then a dash across town to the airport. I'll have a 5-hour layover in MPLS, where I'll happily sit by a window while working and watching airplanes.

There's a new demand for the CDC to drop the deeply misleading "EVALI" term. "The CDC cannot undo the frightened headlines from 2019," writes @imaracingmom. "It cannot persuade everyone who went back to cigarettes. But it can stop repeating the mistake." filtermag.org/cdc-abandon-ev…
